You may be suprised to find this out but Style is not my "area." I'm not great at knowing what looks good together and what doesn't but I'm really trying to get better at it..though I don't think style is necessarly something you can just learn in a snap of a finger. If I'm ever wearing a cute outfit it's usually beacuse that's what the mannequin at the store was wearing and I stole her entire look...I was glad to find that Mary Kay had a professional Stylist and makeup artist put together at Trend look for the spring/summer and this year I thought I'd share what's "In."
The Colors that are "in" this spring and summer are energetic bright colors with a tropical vibe. The stylist tells us to look for light fabrics that are soft to compliment your bright colors..denim and leather tend to be overwhelming in bright shades! (just say no to purple jeans) I'm totally loving the girls necklace to the left. I could never pull off something that huge!! If only my boobs were smaller...
Pulsating prints and tropical florals are a big must have. Wear the print under a jacket or find a pair of shoes or an accessory in a "can't miss" print to wear with solid colors. Texture is also a big deal with your acessories. Check out the ones on the left. Shapes and textures that are inspired by nature such as wood, feathers, and fabric for your accessories. Comfort fashion is in yay!! Jersey and cotton and linen are the fabrics to effortly dress up with an accessory... I'm excited to hear this because I love being comfortable. Infact, I've recently purchased many dresses because they are so much more comfortable than tight pants...which wouldn't be tight if I could loose those extra 10 lbs.
For your face this season is the dewy glistening face with more emphasis placed on the cheeks. Check out the model in the purple. Notice her "dewy" look. A transparant nautrally rosy glow is the key. I had a girl at a party the other day describe it as the "sweaty" look..it was pretty hilarious. This spring make your cheeks your focal point! To get this look apply cheeck color to the apples of your cheeks and blend into your temples. Create a complexion that has been kissed by light. Apply a highlighter to all the places on your face where sun would hit you, your forehead, cheeks, nose and chin. The look for your lips are luscious and bright. Berry colors. I don't look to hot in reds so I'm sticking with the deep browns and purples, like the girl in the photo. 
Style your hair away from your face so that your cheeks are the focal point. Use headbands, or flowers, or sweep into a long flowing braided ponytail. I guess that pony tail is out of the questions since I chopped my hair off! Mary Kay's new summer cheek, lip, and shimmer can complete this look. Go to my website to check them out..www.marykay.com/jennathomas... oh and I'm not just trying to sell you on them..I use them daily and LOVE the look!!
I hope you enjoyed my little post of fashion because it probably won't happen again until I get a Winter Trend list :) I'm good with a tshirt, jeans, and some cowboy boots...or tennis shoes.
About 30 pairs of shoes! Shoes!! Of every size, shape and color. And they were all nice shoes!! At first I thought, maybe someone is playing a prank and instead of "rolling" the house the "
