I hope everyone had a fantastic and relaxing long weekend! To kick off this short week I thought I would share one of my favorite fall-friendly trends: Classic stripes. A great striped top, skirt, scarf, etc… is one of the best pieces to mix into your wardrobe as the days get a little cooler. Classic navy stripes can easily work for spring, summer, fall and winter – just depending on how you mix them in. Here are some of my favorite ways to bring stripes into your look for fall. All images found via our Fall Fashion pinterest board.

Lately I have been noticing a revival of the friendship bracelet- in magazines, style blogs, etc. Today I was flipping through the recent issue of Lucky Magazine and the spread about Mixed Media jewelry really caught my eye. I love the idea - just pile on a whole bunch of these fun bracelets and you have an instantly bright and unique look for the summer.
Here are a few fun ones I spotted around the web via Polyvore:
Alright, so who’s feeling crafty and inspired? Here’s a little friendship bracelet tutorial I found using ribbons from PS: I Made This:
Are you loving the revival of the friendship bracelet as much as I am? Does this also bring you back to your younger years when you would make these for your friends? Did you also own like every color of embroidery thread to make them? Just me? Ok… But seriously go out and get some of these, or better yet, if you are lucky enough – commission one from your younger niece or cousin. So cute!

Perfect Pop of Pink
June 6th, 2011 by alex | No Comments | Filed in Color Color Color, Fashion and StyleHow cute and fun are these hot pink sandals? I found these cute little guys in a pic on pinterest. With a little clicking around I come to find that they are actually from Zara and a little bit of research on the USA Zara website tells me that these hot pink stunners are available for $35.90. These are heading straight to the top of my summer wishlist. (above image: the style crusader)
