Summer prints

Summer 2013 is all about bright colors, prints and having fun with fashion from the runway by turning it into your own personal style on the street. I spotted this dress at ASOS and thought is would be fun to pair it with a pair of neon blue and silver sandals I bought last summer.

Are you wearing prints this season? What are your favorite patterns?

1960’s inspired

A-line dresses are a huge trend for spring 2013. This universally flattering style is easy to wear and looks amazing on almost everyone. When I saw this dress at The Gap, I knew it would be the perfect A-line dress for the spring/summer season. LOVE!

Are you wearing the A-line trend this season? What do you think of the style?

Dainty jewelry returns: Twisted Silver’s Princess Rocker collection

Dainty jewelry reigned supreme on the fall/winter 2013/2014 runways in New York, Paris, Milan and London. Designers showed they are starting to move away from large statement pieces and more towards smaller, more personal jewelry styles.

For the summer 2013 season, Twisted Silver has felt this movement and has created a daintier collection than what we have seen in season’s past from the Bay Area jeweler. To start off the summer, Twisted Silver has given us a colorful yet dainty collection which is appropriately named the “Princess Rocker Collection.”

This beautiful collection is easy to wear with dressy or casual attire; and like many other collections from Twisted Silver, the “Princess Rocker Collection” can be worn several ways! My favorite way to wear the necklace and bracelet is when they are hooked together into one long necklace.

Of course the dainty bracelet looks amazing when stacked with other slim bracelets. The necklace, when worn alone, is a sassy chocker style that blends well with the current 1980’s apparel trend. Love that!

My favorite part about the “Princess Rocker Collection” from Twisted Silver is that each piece is unique. The bracelet and necklace each feature a one-of-a-kind piece of a vintage silver spoon which adds a unique twist to the pieces.

The “Princess Rocker Collection” can be found online at Twisted-Silver.com. The necklace is priced at $50 and the bracelet is priced at $40. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
