Who Wears Short Shorts!

One of my favorite things to wear in the summer is shorts. I LOVE shorts! Good thing, cause it seems to be one of the popular pieces to have and there are many different ways you can wear shorts this summer.

Suggestions: You can wear it casual with a loose plain t-shirt, gladiator flats and any size crossbody bag OR you can dress it up with neutral color pumps, any length boyfriend blazer and clear jewelry(more details to come!).

Let It Shine!

Moroccan Oil.
This amazing product is perfect for all types of hair. It strengthens and conditions your hair without weighing it down. It gets rid of frizz and adds shine. Some even believe that their hair dry much quicker. I absolutely LOVE this product and I love all the compliments I get everytime I use it.
Try it and we'll talk.

Street Look

When it comes to fashion ideas and inspirations, we don't have to look far. We're surrounded by them-family and friends. These are some of our friends at recent outings.

Look #1 : Chloe definitely has her own unique style. Despite her slim figure, she likes to wear things baggy which works out perfectly for the recent trend. (Above photo: Chloe's wearing a peasant drawstring top with beige shorts combined with her favorite western boots and knee high socks.)

Look #2: For a casual spring-time dinner, MJ had picked out a perfect little outfit. A dark denim jacket with beautiful detail work on both sleeves and collar over a light flowy dress. A pair of gladiator sandals with hidden heels was a nice added touch.

Look #3: All the basics you need this year. Plain loose top, skinny, scarf, lace-up gladiator, blue purse. Sometimes, less IS more...cause you can carry the rest in your attitude.

Love Kate, Hate Kate...

We all love to hate kate, the beautiful one.

Need I say more? ;)

Lip Gloss-ary

Our favorite lip gloss for this Spring. We've tried them and these are our thoughts.



YSL Golden Gloss in Golden Macademia. $30

PROS : beautiful color with a hint of gold. doesn't smudge. CONS : high price. frequent reapplication. weird scent.

NARS in Orgasm. $24

PROS : gorgeous color combination of peach and pink. longer lasting. CONS : a bit sticky.

Laura Mercier Lip Glace in Baby Doll. $22

PROS: pretty sheer color with a hint of shimmer. great scent. applies smooth. CONS: frequent reapplication.

L'Oreal Colour Juice Lipgloss in Berry Burst. $7.99

PROS: very glossy with a hint of lip plumping illusion. staying power. great scent. price. CONS: hard to find due to popularity.

Chloe Says...

"You only live once so don't waste your time being unhappy. Always be happy...and look good."

It looks like we'll be seeing lots of edgy neutrals in our closets this Spring and Summer. Whether it's a simple soft grey silk tank dress or a plain loose t-shirt paired with a pair of Burnout Snake Zip Tights, add a little edginess with accessories or...attitude.
Have fun! Always...
