John Deer Green

I like green, it’s probably is my second favorite color. Kelly green is so simple and original… it’s the color of grass. It looks great as an accent. AK carries a fabuloso green handbag and it pretty much looks the bomb with everything. I like wearing it with crisp white and accented with navy or [...]

I used to watch Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style every week until they ripped it from me like a thief in the night. Tim preached that every woman needed a sweat pants alternative. Something that feels like your PJs , but something that would be ok to be seen in at the grocery store.  I’ve [...]

I have never really been a pink type of girl. I like pink, but I don’t LOVE pink. When I was little, my favorite color was purple. I wanted purple everything. My first car was even purple (no idea what I was thinking) So, purple is still near and dear to my heart. Purple looks [...]

Orange is another one of my favorite colors. It makes a great accent to an otherwise neutral outfit and  it makes a statement if worn as the main event. I pair my orange-y goodness with some gold jewelry or a pop of green, blue or purple.

Tie dye seems to be dying to make a come back and I find myself actually wanting to take part in the trend. As long as we leave our mood rings and peace sign necklaces at home, I think we will be alright.

Cobalt blue is a great basic color on so many people. Brunettes looking just as stunning as blondes and red heads. Bring out those baby blues with some cobalt blue accented with yellow or turquoise. If you are feeling patriotic…throw on some red and white too.

Everyone needs a LBD. The possibilities are endless on that basic black canvas. Your little black dress can also cost little moola. Here are just a few I scouted out that are equally super cute as they are super cheap.

Stone jewelry and accents are my favorite, but for the real thing–they tend to be on the expensive side… so, I like the knock offs. (SHOCKING, I know). Here are some recently found stone embellished items that I’m dying over.

Coral For Everyone

If What Not To Wear has taught me anything.. it’s that coral is one of the most universally flattering colors on women. Coral is great paired with a splash of turquoise jewelry. It can be sophisticated with neutrals like khaki or gray and if you are brave enough, accent it with something yellow or lime.
