Turn off your TV... and take a walk on the wildside

Forget reality television, get out there and be your own must-watch-this! Fashion is like our very own set of feathers. We can express ourselves by what we wear: emotions, individuality, personality, moods, and even our lives can dictate what we reach for in our closets

Field & Flower

Mother Nature is one inspiring woman. Take a look around... color combinations that might scare you in your closet are breathtaking in the natural world. A stormy gray sky against April's new greens. The burning oranges and reds of fall leaves against October's blue, blue sky. A field of daffodils. What are your eyes drawn to? Make a mental note, and the next time you get dressed, go for it!

Pretty in Pink

Pink is a color of many faces: fun, flirty, edgy, sassy, and bold, to name a few. Pink's versatility is oft over-looked. This touch of femininity plays well with others: gray, brown, green, orange, white, gold, silver... you name it! Let pink accompany you at work and out on the town!

Accessories are Necessities!

Each piece in your wardrobe is just that: a piece to a fun, daily puzzle. Consider your pieces as one of two things: cake or frosting. They're both sweet on their own, but even more delicious in tandem. Accessories are the easiest kind of frosting. Patterned tights, look-at-me shoes, or bold colors near your face are all quick ways to add a dash of sugar to your look.

Contrast Can...

What do plaid, animal print, silk, cotton, velvet, red, pink, blue, and tie-dye have in common? Ivana used all of them when she styled me on this slow, rainy day. It's pouring buckets outside so we had to stay inside of our little store for this pictorial. The lesson in the kaleidescope of contrast: It works. Sometimes what a bold piece needs for balance is an equally bold partner in crime.

Red is Forever

In the years that we've been open, we've seen many styles come and go. Red, though... red is forever. This may come as a surprise, but most shades of red are also considered neutrals. That means that red can be added to almost any ensemble to ramp up your style.
