Retro Vibes

admin — Thu, 06 Oct 2016 14:34:20 +0000

Bellbottoms, bell sleeves, round glasses and deep v’s have been all the rage for a few seasons, so why stop the retro vibes now? I have been all about the 60s and 70s pieces lately and I am not ready to give them up just yet. Not only because I love the trends but because many of them are super flattering. Extra long bell bottom jeans give your legs a few extra inches of height to help fool people into thinking you are much taller and thinner than you really are. With my 5’6 athletic frame, I am all about tricking people into thinking I’m 5’10. No shame. I also got a bit creative with this outfit and pulled out a piece from my swimsuit collection to through into the mix. This is one of my all time favorite one-piece swimsuits and I thought it would be perfect paired with high-waisted bell bottoms because of the lace-up detail and chevron pattern. Then I threw on a white blazer over top to polish the look and I am retro ready! Ready to get retro yourself? I have linked to some of my favorite retro pieces below. So be sure to scroll all the way […]

How To Wear The 70’s Flare

admin — Tue, 03 Nov 2015 15:01:39 +0000

The 70s are back, and better than ever, in the form of flare jeans! Not only are they on trend, but this style does amazing things for your legs. The fitted thigh and wide bottom silhouette will have your legs looking thinner, instantly…no workout required! We styled our favorite flares from South Moon Under with a blousey top with a thick, braided belt. The color of the top is perfect for Fall, but breezy enough to withstand DC’s favorable fall temperatures. Paired with our latest obsession, the saddlebag, this look captures every great aspect of the 70s trend. Your favorite flashback can now be your everyday, so get these in your wardrobe now! Sarah is wearing: Top (Forever 21 sold out similar here), Jeans (Blank NY c/o South Moon Under – 20% off today!), Sandals (Nasty Gal), Belt (Forever 21), Necklace (Forever 21), Bag (Chloe via Bag Borrow or Steal), Sunglasses (Rayban).

Wearing: Coat: Vintage (similar here), Shirt: Everlane (similar here), Jeans: Paige Denim (similar here), Shoes: Vintage Dolce & Gabbana Loafers (similar here), Sunglasses: Rayban, Earrings: Hanuel, Bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim. Attending fashion week leaves me inspired on so many levels. It excites me for a new season to come, fresh trends to play with and it gives me so many ideas for my business. I’m pretty stoked about all of the trends to come for fall but let’s get real, it’s finally looking like it’s warm enough to talk Spring, so let’s get into what we can start wearing now. If I had to guess which trend I will be favoring this Spring, I would have to go with the 70’s movement. I have always had a thing for flare leg jeans and everything hippy chic, which most likely stems from years of my sister and I playing dress up in my mom’s closet. I hope whomever scored her digs from Goodwill a few years back, is enjoying them because I would absolutely kill to have those kaftans and flares right about now… Flare leg jeans fit my 5’6 frame like a freaking charm. They lengthen my legs and paired a stacked heel, they make […]
