Style Tip: Summer Arm Candy

Summer is here and it's time to bare arms. There is no better way than to add your own flair with trendy, cute bracelets; what I like to call arm candy. Evil eye beads, friendship bracelets, and all kinds of charms are everywhere this season and I am loving it. Always a fan of good luck beads, like the red string or evil eyes, I am all over this. I even started braiding my own friendship bracelets adding beads and stones to them; an homage to my youth! Roll up your sleeves and get braiding, beading or buying!

STYLE FILE: Summer in the City

It feels like summer is here with the weather today! Hot, hot, hot! On a casual outing, I decided to throw on my summer staple; little black shorts. They go with everything and keep me cool when the heat gets too much. An added bonus are the Frye hunter boots I have that are also very light and airy. With a sheer tank and my trusty fedora, I was ready to go!

ICON INSPIRATION: Ali McGraw

One of my favorite style icons is the lovely Ali McGraw. Back in the day she ruled the screen and the fashion world. Posing for Chanel and gracing the covers of every magazine, girls wanted to be Ali. Her style was eclectic and all her own. Even in the roles she played, she looked like a fashion plate. I love watching her old movies when I need some inspiration. Love Story anyone? A regular on the Hollywood scene, Ali always made a statement. Let's take a look back at some of her infamous looks.

TREND REPORT: Pastel Jeans

Pastel jeans are becoming more and more popular. I am a big fan especially of Cammy D's outfit above. It is simple yet stylish by just adding this tint of color. One of spring's biggest hits, they will carry over into the summer. Coming in all hues, a skinny version is your best choice. Don't be afraid, skinny jeans flatter all shapes and sizes. Pick your favorite color and go out in some serious style.
Head over to The Tannery Boston on Boylston Street to find your pair! They have quite the selection of Rag and Bone jeans!

The Perfect Summer Blazer

Everyone needs a great blazer. It is a must have staple for every wardrobe! I found the perfect one for the summer especially if you are in a professional environment! It is the Ann Taylor Urban Jacket and very reasonably priced at $228.  It comes in a modern-relaxed fit and the perfect summer color, pale sand. Hurry before it sells out.

Stella Valle Urban Charm

Talk about an urban chic look! stella valle captures just that with their intriguing bracelets. Sisters Ashley and Paige Dellavalle, were originally set in life as U.S. Army Officers but beneath their uniforms craved more fashion. Using their mechanical training and love of Vogue magazine came the innovative, customizable leather stella valle bracelets. I really enjoy the customization on their site to choose your own style and make your own statement. Individual charms can be placed on so many colored and unique bands. As they say, "stella valle embraces a juxtaposition that connotes an unapologetic, liberated sense of one's own style." Thanks ladies!
I chose ASHLEY, tough and talented
The packaging is exceptional!

Style File: Dressing for the Gloom

Vintage Vest, Old Navy Peasant Top, BDG Leggings, TopShop Loafers, Vintage 60's Necklace
It is so difficult to decide what to wear in this unpredictable weather right now as Bostonians. Will it rain? Will we see the sun? What should we put on? Today I thought the rain would subside so I put on a mix of warmth and a little bit of spring.

Gem File: Ofina Jewelry

Ofina Jewelry is one of a kind. Handcrafted by Liza Anongchanya at her two boutiques in San Fransico. She has an array of designs for the "muti-faceted, modern woman." She uses silver, gold, gunmetal, shells, and vintage among other materials for a chic, day to night look. I spotted her initial charm necklaces at Stylefixx Events and had to grab one. I was able to custom design it by chain and charms. I chose a simple chain with a silver S for Sarah and a gold J for Justin. It is so delicate and can be worn alone for a classic look or layered with others for a more trendy style!

The Assistant File: Umbrella Clarity

Target, $16.99
The Hip Chick


With all the snow and rain we experience in Boston every girl needs an umbrella in their arsenal. Since we have to use them more often than we’d like, I say they should be a stylish accessory. I love a clear bubble umbrella because it looks perfect with any outfit. It also works great against the wind and rain, and you can see where you are walking with ease. Pair this umbrella with great cutting rain jacket and Hunter boots so you’ll be ready to impress the queen of Umbrellas, Rihanna

StyleFixx Events: Boston Edition

Every gal dreams of a night like this, where clothing, jewelry, drinks and food are under one roof. This night has come true in the form of StyleFixx Events. Held at the Boston Cyclorama tonight and tomorrow, it is like heaven on earth. Enjoy the shopping from vendors like Ku De Ta and Zack Lo, jewelry from Ofina and Yumi Chen, drinks from Stella Artois, and pizza from Upper Crust! Don't forget to leave with your insanely packed "Swag Bag" filled to the brim with all kind of treats! I particularly loved the candles at The Fifth Madison and grabbed a bracelet from L. Jumelles. It is a great night for girlfriends to get together and enjoy themselves with everything set under the paper lanterns of the Cyclorama.

There is still time to get tickets for tomorrow night here at http://www.stylefixxevents.com.
