What to Wear: Labor Day Weekend

Although it brings a tear to our eye to think that summer is coming to an end, we don’t plan on letting our favorite season pass without some celebrating this Labor Day weekend. Whether you’re hanging beachside, lakeside or grabbing drinks downtown, we’ve got just the looks to help you look your best will bidding farewell to a pretty darn perfect summer.  Sniff.

Where to Shop: Pencil Skirts

It may be a staple item in any working girl’s closet, but a good pencil skirt can be hard to find.  We’ve all had days where the bottom of our skirt stretches to an unrecognizable and very unflattering shape by 5 o’clock.  And, while we love our go-to black, we’re the first two to admit it doesn’t always provide the pizzazz we’re looking for in our outfit.  So if you’re like us and you’ve been searching for the perfect pencil, set your eyes on the six we’re lusting after right now.

Beauty Report: Hot Hollywood Hair

We’re two girls who go back and forth with our hair…craving bangs and long locks one day and turning gears towards something short and sassy the next. Never ones to take our hair styles too seriously, we’re not afraid of changing it up…and you shouldn’t be either!  This year, we’ve seen a number of celebs take to the scissors (take Emma Watson for example…does it get cuter than her!?), while others have chosen to maintain their classic long locks or ahem, extensions.  One style that’ll never let you down? Mid-length, shoulder-grazing strands.  After all, if a midi-length gets us closer to looks like Brookyln Decker’s, you can bet we’re in.

Design Inspiration: Lux Living Room

Recently, Anna put together a little “design inspiration” as a work assignment. Take a look and tell us, what runway looks are inspiring your environment?

“Perhaps no two subjects are more closely related than fashion and decor. What we choose to wear and how we fill our favorite spaces is a true reflection of ourselves, our interests and our own personal style. When I recently came across this look from the spring/summer 2012 Balmain runway, I was instantly inspired. I love the decadence of the gold embroidery, the carefully structured cut and the cowboy-meets-gladiator belt buckle. Although gold stilettos would have made for an obvious pairing, designer Olivier Rousteing added unexpected edge with black boots. I was inspired to recreate the look in the form of a sophisticated, neutral, living room, adorned with rich, gold accents. The touch of black makes things less formal and more funky.”

Happy Dressing!

What to Wear: Beach Time!

Although there’s been several days of rain here in the northeast, we’re feeling confident that summer time temps are here to stay.  Thankfully, this means we can briefly ditch our slacks and blazers in favor of  a more playful “suit”.  This year, there are plenty of swimwear trends to choose from and we’ve got our eyes set on scoring something skimpy in the form of neon, tropical or retro.  Whatever your style, there’s a suit to ahem, suit you.  So pick your favorite (or two!), grab your Fifty Shades and sink your toes in the sand.  It’s beach time, babes!
