Two approaches to Chic fashion

Color Blocking is too cute and fun. I call it "Popsicle Fashion" I call it that because it's always "cool"! Sheri has done an excellent job making fashion look fun. Also her Blue blazer is refreshing and will take her  to fall as well! Sheri has blended some classic pieces (white shirt0) and( nude shoe)  the this "on trend" look.











There is another expression of chic fashion, which is the color white. I attended Lizz Russell's charity fashion show at the WestGate hotel in San Diego. A great way to wear white in the evening is by adding a camel color blazer, camel fishnet stockings and nude color shoes. This is chic, modern, and a fresh intro into summer 2012.

Playing with the color wheel/ Spring to Summer transition

Navy blue and green is alsway a clever and saavy combination. Blending these colors show you are willing to stretch. I have made look transition from spring into summer with white accessories(watch). A camel colored cap and light deco earrings.

June Nights........

 The photo to the left is me in a classic blazer, jean shorts and nude heels. I rarely use my self as an example, but this look created a "pear" silhouette on me.  Notice in the photo below, my shorts cute as thery are, have an attached belt. If you have a considerable amount of hips and thighs you will want to avoid anything that adds volume or "size to that area. Other than that this is a nice summer evening option.

Brandy at the Billboard Awards. This look is a bit confusing. Brandy, Herve' Le'ger, has  a sculpted form-fitting look. However this is not what Herve' Le'ger is giving off this evening. Brandy definitely has the right figure, however this fit is not giving off the sexy look, Herve' Le'ger is known for. This dress is adding weight on Brandy and disfiguring her. It's not slimming at all. And the hair........ this may have been an attempt to pay hommage to Ms. Donna Summer, if so it was unsuccessful. Brandy has a unique look. The right stylist can really turn her personal style around. Brandy call me!

Dishonoring "White"


Ok Miley..... Ummmmm. Ok. Rule of thumb, when you are wearing something revealing you need to offset the big reveal with covering up the opposite end. That helps it look tasteful. The "do" Miley has going on is wearing white. Another observation, is the jacket looked a little ill fitted. It should have been more oversized and boyish or tailored to look more feminne. Had she covered up a little more and stayed tasteful this look would have been a stunner!

On set of Oceanside Spectrum.............


Working on KOCT station with Elaine Swann the host of " Oceanside Spectrum" is full of excitement. Putting together the "look" of the host is intriguing and artful every month. Keeping a "fresh" look for the show is what I love most about my craft.
Elaine is wearing a super cute boutique look. Ensemble is the store that provided us with the clothes this month.
Elaine is wearing fitted cargo jeans with a violet lace blouse on top. To complete this look, I've put her on a military inspired curdoroy crop jacket. These romantic colors are a great peak into 2011's color pallet.

Transition to Fall.......



It is fall and, transitioning into fall wardrobe is a very tricky thing, especially in California. This look is "California fall". Maya is wearing an asymmetrical Indonesian inspired blouse, with a classic black "mini". The top of the look makes a great pallet for her red heels. This look is great with "fish nets" for a night out on the crisp town. The paisley decoration on the top is what really sets this look apart from other "mini" and black top looks.
