A Sheer Thing.

As the years have gone by it seems that dresses and skirts have gotten shorter and shorter, making what used to be a scandalous amount of leg appear to be the norm. But as the age old saying goes: what goes up, must come down. This season, runways were flooded with mid-length to floor grazing skirts. However as well know when trying to beat the heat, the last thing we need is a long skirt to bring us down; no matter how chic! However I've spotted a happy medium: sheer skirts. These transparent garments are the sauciest way to update lengthy skirts. Now you flaunt your summer tans and maintain a hint of mystery. With celebrities and fashion shows already sporting the look, I have a feeling this is going to be one hot new trend. Will you be rocking a long sheer skirt for the Spring/Summer season?

J'Adore Paris

Photobucket
I love LOVE. The feeling, the action, the falling into, and the very idea of love makes me swoon. Just a four letter word can be an inspiration and a motivator for everyday life. Love is paradise. Nothing says love more romantically than cozy chateaus, picnics in the park with baguettes and brie, and the infatuation with a man who does not know a word of English. So when I got this newsletter from Free People about the Parisian chic twist made to their otherwise very bohemian collection, it was love at first sight. Looking through the January lookbook I felt inspired to infuse the feeling of mysterious foreign adoration into my wardrobe with French accents. Feeling the love? I recommend adding sequined stripes, lace, denim jackets, and chic flats to give your spring wardrobe a European flair. Warning: You might find Jacques are now at your disposal. Tell me what are you falling for for Spring?
