Getting back into boot cut

The past several years have been all about skinny jeans, but as we move into 2015, boot cut and flare jeans are gaining momentum. This means the formally “so three years ago” style is acceptable again; and may soon take over the number one denim style spot from the skinnies!

Since boot cut and flare jeans are making a comeback, I thought I would wear this pair of boot cut jeans to get myself back into the silhouette. Although I feel like skinny jeans make me look thinner, the boot cut jean is more comfortable. I also like the 1970’s retro vibe of boot cut jeans.

I am not ready to ditch my skinnies, they really do take about ten pounds off my 5’4″ frame, but a little bit of comfort and vintage flair mixed in never hurt anyone 😉 After all, I am a little bored of my skinnies, despite their slimming properties. What do you think of boot cut or flare jeans? Are you ready to rock the style or do you want to stick with your skinnies?

New Years Eve 2015 is almost here! That means it is time to find the perfect, sparkling dress to ring in the new year!

2014 was a fabulous year, therefore, it is safe to assume that 2015 will be equally fabulous! Since 2015 will be dazzling, why not dazzle in sparkles! This new years eve, look for sparkling dresses in sequins, and fun, shimmering fabrics. Also look out for texture; which adds dimension and lighthearted fun to any garment. Love that!

I found a few fabulous New Years Eve dresses around the web and assembled them below. Now, I need to pick one!
