Hi there pretty ones,
I sure hope y’all enjoyed your weekend! I mentioned I worked a bit on Saturday which was cool and chilled the rest of the weekend. The weather was really nice here and noticed a lot of ladies sporting shorts. Now I don’t think that shorts have an age limit. If they make you feel pretty, rock on! But, here are some tips to wear them well:

-Decide what length you want to wear, too short and you’re showing your goodies, too long might be less flattering. Consider the inseam – of say between 7 or 8 inches which hits about about mid thigh.

-Consider a structured fabric that looks more fitted. The more billowy the shorts, the bigger you look.

-Keep your top out rather than tucked in(OK with a jacket or cardi).

-Daisy Dukes? Yep denim can work but keep em’ neat, with a hem or a cuff.

-High heels and shorts are fine, but better for a night out.

Are you wearing shorts this season?

Hello Pretties,

One of the hottest trends for Spring 2013 is Stripes. Yeah, I’m thinking the same thing, “Stripes can be tricky”. I’ve always heard that stripes really aren’t that flattering especially in a horizontal pattern. But good news, there are ways to wear stripes that are very fashionable. My picks via Bergdorf Goodman.

These stripes have simple lines which make them easy to wear or you could just do a striped accessory such as a shoe or a handbag. Do you dare try stripes, up, down, sideways,or diagonal?

And, let’s not forget today is the first day of Lent leading up to Easter Sunday. Many believers pledge to give up something specific, like sodas, television, or profanity. Me? I’m giving up sweets, wish me luck, y’all know I love a good cookie! What are you giving up for Lent?

Keep it Pretty,
