In honor of Independence Day, we're highlighting our favorite patriotic color scheme...which luckily, never goes out of style. Our favorites in each color choice from Nordstrom: BCBGMAXAZRIA Pleated Babydoll Jersey Dress $268.00 Va-va-va-voom! Paint the town red in this sassy number!
True Religion Brand Jeans 'Sophie Heritage' Stretch Denim Cuffed Shorts (Medium Lovestruck Disco Crystal) $262.00 Ahhh....the cuffed denim short, an American classic! Whenever I see a pair, Wipe Out starts playing in my head as I envision Jennifer Grey mambo-ing across the walking bridge in Dirty Dancing.
Robin K. Ruffled Eyelet Top $42.00 Ok, so we know the minute we put this on we're going to spill something on it (that's why we need so many white tops in our closets), but for that brief minute that it's stain-free, you'll look completely sophisticated!

What's that old saying? "If you can't beat the heat, get out of the fire?" Well, we say jump right in, just look cool while your doing it! Just like boots in the winter, sandals in the summer are a signature that really can only be worn during the warm season. Because of that, I make it a point to buy at least one new style each summer (and yeah, it probably has never and will never be, "just one")! KARRMA BLUSH $99.95 A glam gladiator...we all need one in each of our closets. Also available in Black Patent and White Patent.
SUKIE BRONZE LEATHER $59.95 Why opt for a sad looking flip-flop when your feet could be graced by these? Also in Gold Leather, Orange Multi, Silver Leather, and Black & White.
KINETTIC BLACK LEATHER $89.95 This is perfect for work attire or jeans on the weekend. Also in Green Leather (my favorite!), White Leather, and Yellow Leather.

The newest trend in jewelry? Message pieces which have come about mainly as inspirations of message tees. The main difference? Message tees can be a little obnoxious at times and are tricky as they can also be very juvenile. Message jewelry however is subtle and elegant, fun, quirky, and doesn't scream to the world your dream of becoming "Mrs. Timberlake!" Here are some of our favorites from one of our favorite etailers, Zappos: Disney Couture - Kidada Tinkerbell Think Ring (Gold) - Jewelry $41.00
Jessica Kagan Cushman - You Can Agree With (Black Resin) - Jewelry $129.00
Jessica Elliot - Stackable Ring-Lucky (Silver) - Jewelry $46.00

Floral prints are not only super popular right now, they're also versatile, feminine, and summery. The floral prints you'll see in '08 range from graphic splashes to perfect images of daisies, or a bouquet you would pick in a meadow to a whimsical display petals. They're small, or wide, and can be found on top or bottom. Label junkies beware, Yoox has a huge variety of florals (along with every other trend!) to choose from: KEN SCOTT - Women - DRESSES - 3/4 length dresses on YOOX.COM $429.00 (org. $715.00) PINKO - Women - SHIRTS - Kaftans on YOOX.COM $79.00 (org. $132.00)

Love them or hate them the above types of pants are very much in right now. So, what's the difference between the three styles mentioned above? It turns out, very little, but just enough to give them a different silhouette. A skinny jean skims the entire leg, therefore actually getting smaller towards the ankle. Straight and Cigarette (or Stovepipe) pants are just a touch wider at the ankle, but no where near a flare. What you pair with the jeans will vary with your body shape as well. Unless your a size 0 stear clear of a fitted top, opt for one that flows, if you have a short torso, make sure it flows past the waistband of the jean itself...this adds length. Flats look amazing with this look, but again, that depends on the shape of your body. Heels will visually slim you and for some of us are a staple with these types of pants. One final thought, make sure you don't snub this pant because of the term "skinny". Just make sure you try them on with heels and the right top...you might be surprised! Joe's Jeans charcoal stretch 'Chelsea' skinny jeans $95.00
Paper Denim & Cloth stream stretch 'Audrey' cigarette jeans $66.00

On little girls, they're an adorable way of defining a sweet innocense. On adults, they're a sophisticated way of defining a wardrobe. Braid can give a plain top or dress just enough decoration to set it apart from other items in your wardrobe and of course goes well with the summer sailor style. 7 For All Mankind Braided Cami in Hammered Silk, $108.00 Also availabe in Navy and Tan which are equally hot.
Fossil Carmen Duffle, $188.00 This reminds me of a picture of my mom from the 70's...she had a bag similar to this. Who knew she was so trendy:)
Ombre Trapeze Dress, $74.00 (org. $148.00) Arden B - Dresses Perfect alone or over leggings. Happy Shopping!

The month of June is a busy one for me...traveling non-stop and working around the clock has already taken a toll on me and I can tell just by looking in the mirror I need a break. There's never been a better time to release Arctic Brightening Serum, which according to a recent press release, "is like a time machine, helping to reverse the progression of stress-related damage to restore luminosity and improve texture." Other benefits include brighter skin and more even tone and texture, more firm skin for a healthy glow, reduction of lines and wrinkles, and a restored skin immune system. Be on the lookout for it, later this month. Want to try the skyn Iceland brand now? Here's what's topping our list:  skyn ICELAND Detox Kit for Stressed Skin $45.00 (plus, with any $45.00 skyn ICELAND purchase, receive an Arctic Face Mist Free!)

Dressing for warm weather is so much more fun than dressing for cold weather...there are just so many more options: short sleeve, sleeveless, tube, halter, one shoulder, and one of my favorite looks, off the shoulder tops! One note of caution, those of us with broader shoulders (me included) need to note that these tops tend to lengthen that area even more, as eyes are prone to view the body horizontally vertically, so plan the rest of your outfit appropriately. Some of our favorites:
Erika Top $78.00 from C&C California. This site if full of practical wearable items and this top fits the rule perfectly. The fullness in the waist can also disguise that area if you're looking to hide anything.
Sleeveless Georgette Blouse $19.99 (org. $24.99) from Metrostyle. The ruffles make this such a feminine choice and would pair well with denim, Bermudas, or an a-line skirt.
Smocked Bohemian Top $89.00 Shop Boston Proper! My favorite! From the blue and purple combo to the ombre/dip-dyed pattern, I could see myself wearing this top all summer long! Happy Shopping!
