Tips & Trends on how to accessorize: summer or winter

The key to dressing as chic or as cool ( as in this case) like a celebrity is to accessorize!!

The art of looking like a 10 no matter how bare the essentials.
Gisele, Nicole, Jessica they all do it.

6 inexpensive wardrobe upgrades

1. Leggings – because they go with everything from a T-Shirt to a dress. Can be worn in the summer and the winter.

2. Chanel Nail Polish - A quick upgrade thats so worth the price of the tiny bottle ( no one does quality nail polish like Chanel!)

3. Statement Jewelry – it can be a ring or it can be a necklace whatever it is, make sure that it stand out and is unique ( try shopping in older relatives closets or at Vintage stores)

4. Scarves – because they’re just practical. Keeps you warm and you can also wear them as headbands ( like Nicole Richie)

5. Sunglasses – every woman needs a ( a few) good pair of shades. Seeing the world through tinted glasses makes like so much more glamorous.

6.Hat - A straw just about goes with everything from jeans to dresses. And is an effortless chic for that bad hair day!

I’m in love with anything colorful, and this summer I’m in colorama overload because everybody is designing something and/or wearing something with color thats poppin

Drew Barrymore is one of my favorite actresses she just seems so ‘real’ and fun to be around. You know like a friend you’d actually want to have a cup of coffee with now and then. I recently saw her wearing some red shades.

Well, I was on the scout to find a similar pair of shades at a reasonable price (as always) and here’s what i came up with, and I even found some Kanye West and Nicole Richie sunglasses:

Suiting Up: Trend Watch, the mens suit

I’ve seen many stars this season wearing some great looking lean cut pants suit, that just could not go unmentioned. I’ve compiled a few chic yet cheap places to get a similar look for us frugal fashionistas, and also have choices for the rest too.

>>Expensive: Under $2,000
This Armani Suit at Neiman Marcus: its a straight leg pants and a bamboo twill jacket. Its very similar to the one worn by Nicole Richie.

>>Affordable: Under $300
Thank goodness for Macys, Calvin Klein for under $200 is a great deal on a suit that might be crucial for an important interview. It’s made of stretch cotton gabardine.

>>Bargain: Under $100
Once upon a time I thought of Newport-News as a catalog shopping company that only people like my Mom would use, but my goodness I’ve been keeping up with their revamp for over a year now and I’m never disappointed, they have great deals on fashionable items. You can seriously look like a million bucks on a $100 budget. Like this pants suit, were the total is under $100 !!! Yes, the jacket is $54 and the pants are $39.

Let me know your thoughts on the three (3) selections. Leave me a comment or a question.
