How to wear white like a pro

As much as I love white, it's definitely difficult to wear all white without looking plain-Jane/beachy/bridal.  There's an array of textures, symmetry, and silhouettes  to pay attention to.  You can mix and match them to minimize the flatness due to uniformity.  Also, your favorite accessories: shoes, bags, hats, sunnies, belts will get the attention they deserve with a white outfit. The most important thing tho--don't stain your whites! I'd carry a bleach pen in my purse just in case ;) By the way, have you seen what Taylor Swift wore to the CMA? She made a great choice--a perfect ethereal white gown with gold details. I heart it. See it at bottom of post.

Grown-ups Have Fun With Colors

You'd think fashion trends are seasonal...until color-blocking came along!! I remember when I first started blogging about a year ago from today, color-blocking was brand new to me. I was expecting the trend to fade quickly, but I was wrong. It really picked up momentum and is still sailing this year as you'll see from street styles at fashion week in Milan, Paris, London, and NYC.  I will be experimenting with color-blocking soon...be sure to check out my personal style blog at Urbanite to see what I will be wearing =) For now, see how color-blocking is rocking solid.
