Style Inspiration: Gwen Stefani

Everyone knows I am a huge Gwen Stefani fan. I have adored her glam style since I was in eighth grade. Can you even believe she is 43 now? No matter what she is wearing, she manages to make it look just plain cool. She is a master at mixes prints and breaking rules. The queen of the red lip rocks a platinum do like no other. Here are a few of my favorite Gwen looks from 2013.

Who would think to mix camouflage pants with this printed sweater? Somehow it is effortless and chic.

Her spin on the classic topknot is super in style.

My favorite VOGUE covergirl.

Adding hints of blue throughout her outfit adds an unexpected touch.

This polka dot sweater is a simple way to make any outfit pop.

This is just amazing and really shows off Gwen's different style.

I absolutely cannot wait for the MAJOR event with Wicked Peacock Jewelry and Future Boston Alliance this Wednesday that I am so honored to be a part of! Drinks, amazing photography, photo booths, and so much more will be in the mix. Hope to see you all there!

SalonCapri Opens on Newbury Street

Get ready folks! SalonCapri just opened its third location on Newbury and I cannot wait to try it! The 2,200 square-foot Newbury Street interior space was completely renovated and custom-designed by architecture firm,studio 3.0, in order to provide a sophisticated and tranquil environment. The salon offers SalonCapri’s signature L’Oréal Professionnel Haircolor Center - an open, centralized environment for color consultation and mixing that enables the haircolorist to actively involve clients in the haircolor process from start to finish. 

“Opening a third salon on Newbury Street makes perfect sense for us, as our focus on providing clients the very best salon experience matches the unparalleled style and sophistication of the Newbury Street neighborhood and its clientele,” said Nicholas Penna, Jr., L’Oréal Professionnel brand ambassador and owner/lead stylist of SalonCapri. “Throughout our 40 years in business, SalonCapri has developed a loyal following by providing our clients with a high level of service and access to cutting-edge cut and coloring techniques. We now look forward to offering our signature SalonCapri experience on Newbury Street for those who live or work in Boston.”

Style Me Pretty

 

Last night, Gilt City Boston hosted the fabulous Abby Larson of the major blog, Style Me Pretty, and now author of the book Style Me Pretty Weddings at Grettacole Spa and Salon. It was a spectacular event with a reading by Abby followed by thoughtfully answered questions. Prosecco and insane cake truffles from Delicious Desserts were passed and I even took home a signed copy of the book.
