VINTAGE WHERE: AT HOME

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL
The Spring and Summer seasons are a time of renewal; a time in which cleaning and recycling are at an all time high and women across the nation are embracing the old proverb, "out with the old and in with the new". Did you know, however, that these picturesque seasons also bear vibrant, "look at me" colors and patterns, and that the very cardigans and blazers you normally wear in Fall and Winter are now hot commodities for the warmer climates? Look at my mother for instance. She is not fond of flaunting too much skin but also wants a fresh, chic look for Summer, so she added a bright mustard blazer with a white camisole and dark denim jean. The look appears effortless, yet classy and classic. This look will flatter ANY body type as long as the blazer is not too long for your proportion, or has too thick of a shoulder pad. Also, in these upcoming seasons, aim for the brighter colors and prints, but when it comes to brights and prints, remember that simplicity is classic and very becoming.
Another hot summer pick for the season is the printed Maxi dress. Stars such as Paris, Miley, and Tori alike have mastered the art of the patterned Maxi. When incorporating such a bold dress into one's wardrobe, she must be aware of a flattering fit and print, as this long, vintage style can possibly leave one looking as if they'd shopped in maternity. Do not fret however, the Maxi is an essential in a fashionista's wardrobe and once found to fit correctly, is able to make any woman of any shape look goddess-like!
