PR 2014: *Secrets*of Picking Winter Accessories




During the cold final months of winter, at minimum 4 main fashion accessories should be considered. If you only need one hat, then be sure to match that hat with your gloves, statement necklace and scarf. 

The problem with most girls are they pick their favorite hat one day, a fabulous scarf another day, and gloves maybe from last year? Not to mention if you bought a coat loving a new trendy color, you can end up looking like a hot mess when you have to wear all of them together. 

My advice is, match your accessories to your coat. Hat, gloves, scarf, put it together in away to show your style. Believe it or not, this is the main outfit people will see you in all winter. Avoid those pre-made sets where you can buy all 3 together. It is a safe way to look okay, but honestly it is too matchy-matchy. Be unique and figure out a trio that sets you apart from the standard girl.

Lastly, match your jewelry to your accessories. It will tie your outwear together with your inner wear. Everything will become a complete idea and set your fashion bar very high. 

good luck!

With Christmas fever in the air, it is so hard not to fall under the "Holiday Spell" of buying and wearing tacky Christmas sweaters! The stigma that is attached to "Christmas Sweaters" is no longer necessary with the creation of fantastic embellished sweaters. Designers have taken the best parts of traditional ugly christmas sweaters and made it 'oh so fashionable'!
I have gathered a collection of my favorite sweaters, and they all sparkle and dazzle to the fullest. The best thing is, you can stay snuggly warm all winter long and still remain a style goddess.

Blogmas Day 10: Think Pink! Even Santa has opted for Pink instead of traditional red this season. Pink is actually proven to make the brain think things taste and are sweeter when they are the color pink. Often times bakeries will add the color pink to entice customers.
During this holiday try finding sweet pink hues to sweeten up your look. A sweet pink blush to add the right flush of color to your cheeks and adorable charm!
