Spring/Summer Style Menu – What are you ordering?

menu-designHow many times have you gone to your favorite restaurant, scanned the menu, meaning to try something new but ended up ordering the same old thing?

The reason we do that is because we get comfortable, we fall into a rut, and that can make life small and boring.

Well, the same thing happens with fashion. Every season a smorgasbord of fashion is offered up to us and many times we fall back on buying the same old look.

We want to encourage you to expand your comfort zone and try something new on the menu. Here are some seasonal Style specials we highly recommend you try:

walking-shorts

1. Walking Shorts

Many women worry that these will make them look fat, but give them a try. Look for a pair that has some stretch in them and that are straight legged and flat front. If you have large thighs make sure they are not too skinny. If you are pear shaped avoid high waisted shorts. Layer walking shorts with a fitted tank top or sweater set. These look best with a medium to high heel to stretch your figure.

2. A plunging neckline paired with a cotton camisole.

One thing many women fear is a plunging neckline. The way to pull off this look is to pair it with a cotton camisole that is either plain or has a bit of lace. If you add a necklace or long earrings, you will not feel so naked.

3. Multiple long necklaces

Long chains compliment this season’s flowy look. They can be worn by themselves or a really popular look is to wear a few chains of different lengths. Gold chains and pearls are a popular mix as well as multiple beaded necklaces in different shades. Fine boned gals should choose more delicate chains, while bigger boned gals look best wearing bolder chains.

4. Platform/Wedge Shoes.

You may remember these from the 70′s, but they’re back and looking modern and chic. Best of all they are comfortable and they are available in lots of bright colors
to punch things up. Wedge shoes look great with feminine clothing , flowing skirts, ruffles and lace but in order to not to overpower this look choose cutout wedges that have a lighter look and feel.

5. Experiment with a baby doll top.

In the past we have warned you about this look, with good reason. It is hard for many of us to pull off. However, if you are fairly trim and not too busty, we encourage you to go ahead and try it. Best if worn with fitted jeans or leggings. Looks best with flats.

6. Cropped Jacket.

The short cropped jacket is everywhere. If you have not tried it yet, it is comfortable and flattering for most body types. We like the ones in softer fabrics with interesting collars and lots of details like fabulous buttons or trim. The most popular styles are Safari -in khakis, olives and blacks; Military- with braid gold and buttons; Romantic – with pretty patterns and feminine details like bell sleeves. These jackets say modern and modern is youthful!

7. Try a sweater wrap.

What’s a sweater wrap? Think a Pashmina with sleeves. This fresh take on a how to look chic if it gets chilly is a wardrobe must. Look for one that is thin and soft and a pretty color that is neutral, so that you can wear it with most things. Try one of the new sleeveless ones for summer.
