Summer Fashion 2011

Summer fashions are fun, flirty and empowering.  This summer season is no different.  Bring on the gorgeous summer fashions, for I am ready to style.    

One of my favorite classics is also once again trendy- LACE. Lace can be sweet, girly and sexy.  Lace tops, lace dresses, lace accessories- they are all perfect for summer wear.  TRY IT:  Combine a lace piece with a menswear piece, add a statement accessory and talk about a fabulous contrast that will turn heads.    

Fashion is art. It is a personal and cultural expression.  Fashion is creative, inspiring, expressive, dynamic and functional.  Fashions fade, and fashions trend.  Decade-specific fashions are a common inspiration for current designers, so it is no surprise that often the decade-specific fashions reemerge with new life. This summer 50s, 60s and 70s fashions are showcased.  We may not all be fans of every retro-reincarnation, but subtly adding decade-specific (authentic or new) pieces into our summer wardrobe can be fun.  Shopping for vintage pieces is definitely a perfect way to spend a beautiful afternoon with friends.

In addition to lace treasures and 50s/60s/70s retro finds, expect to see bold stripes, bright colors, funky wedges, feminine shaping, funky-chic patterns, bright nail color and lots of personality.  Wear what speaks to you, and have fun.
