Grace Potter Fashion

     

Grace Potter rocks her bangs and her band, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals. She has long toned legs that allow her to wear rompers, short dresses and shorts well. She looks very good in tassels, flowy clothes, and sequins. She resembles a 20's flapper girl but in modern day style, and her hair is great wavy or straight. 

Eyelet Purses

   
 

I recently made a purse on my own by simply cutting up an old blazer and using one of my purses as a template to sew the new one! It is a suede material with eyelets in it. It is the perfect size and length and I've decorated it with some environmental buttons I have to complete the bohemian/hippie look. Eyelet purses are great because they come in all sorts of materials and colors. They are simple but interesting because they have cutout designs on them that aren't usually featured on bags.

Elephant Necklaces

         

Elephants are the new owls and have been taking over the accessory and clothing world. You can find detail or simple elephant necklace charms almost everywhere now. Some popular looks are the bohemian/antique metal, silver, and gold. There are cute cartoon-like elephants, detail and realistic ones, silhouette-like, Asian and African elephants, and Indian decorated elephants. Try to find all the looks and start this trend in your wardrobe. 

Quick Tip #9

 

Ever get an annoying patch of deodorant on a dark colored shirt? When this happens do you have to completely change your outfit while you throw your deodorant thrashed shirt in the washer? I have the best solution for these absurd problems. Grab a used or new dryer sheet and rub it on the deodorant smudge and presto! your shirt will be all clean almost 99% of the time. This is just another tip to make your life easier, more stylish and less wasteful!  

Simple Gold Sandals

     

Gold sandals are the ultimate sandal that you will want this summer. They are shiny and eye catching. You can pair them with almost anything and go great with blue jeans and a white v-neck. You can dress them up with sun and night dresses or dress them down with jeans or shorts. You can find ones in gladiator shapes, side straps, heel straps, etc. Beads and jewels are nice touches that are always welcome on gold sandals too.

Sand Dollar Clothing and Accessories

         

Sand dollars are a unique find on beaches and are rarely found whole because they are fragile and break in rough waters. It is uncommon to find clothing and accessories decorated with sand dollar pieces but they are great for summer apparel. Silver is the best color for sand dollar accessories but white is good as well. A twist based off of the flower or star shape in the middle of a sand dollar has been made to fit well on modern women's clothing. The pattern can be simple flower shapes on regular material or on lace. 

My New Hat

    

I have had my eye on a hat at Forever21 for a while now and it finally went on sale! It is perfectly bohemian for me and will be a great accessory for a lot of my outfits and for this summer. I was originally $17.80 and was marked down to $8.99! It also came in black but I felt like brown would go with more boho things. It is kind of like the Indiana Jones hat but better! I can't wait to show it off and rock my style!

Weekly Review of Forever21 Apparel: Baroque Cigarette Pants

 




Cigarette pants are great for slender legged women both tall or short. For shorter women a striped pants leg will extend your height and for taller women looking to appear shorter, try to stay away from eye catching patterns which will attract more attention to your long legs. These pants are $22.80 at Forever21 and come in this lovely royal blue print. The pants have a solid blue trim around the front pockets and belt line which add more structure to them.

Florence Welch Fashion

        

With firey red hair you know this lady is risky. Her songs are amazing and her style is rocking. Almost any color of clothing goes well with red hair, especially green! Flowing white dresses are her specialty but she also wears typical indie rocker clothing and a mumbo jumbo of fashions. She rocks to floppy felt hat well and her pale skin can make many colors pop.
