Saturday Style 4 Spring trends

Happy Weekend! I thought it would be fun to showcase some fun Spring trends on my Saturday style’s segment. I have Picked out What I Believe will be 15 HUGE Spring Trends (talked about on Thursday’s blog post) Each Saturday from now until April I’ll be featuring some of these fun trends that woman of all ages can incorporate into their wardrobe.

Saturday’s have a tendency to be casual and one of Springs biggest TREND is the Boyfriend jean. The Boyfriend jean is normally a little looser, worn more on the hip and Almost always distressed. This jean is a more casual fit and is designed to look like your wearing your boyfriends jean. Don’t get me wrong you can dress this jean up, with heals,lace floral etc. As for my style I have a tendency to grab this pair on the weekends. This jean can be worn at any age and looks great with every shoe. TIP Don’t wear with a flowy top, baggy jeans look better with less fabric on top. I have paired this with a top that combines 2 Spring TRENDS, the lace up top and stripes. The lace up has been big for a couple of seasons and it isn’t going anywhere. I love the pastel cording, its a fun detail. To finish of my casual Saturday look I Paired it with a Over sized Bag= Trend 4, Spring fedora and a pair on Tennis shoes. (you could wear a flip flop,wedge or even pump) to change the look up a bit.

Bag-Louis Vuitton, Shoes-Converse, Jean-Catherine by Kut from the kloth

Top=Sydney Strip $37.99

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and learned a little something from me today. OX, D’Arcy

Anniversary or Bridal Shower ready !

Bring on the Romance!

We’re Celebrating Our Anniversary this weekend and I wanted to share with you some fun Gift Ideas for a Anniversary or a Bridal shower. This would also be perfect for a Wedding night.

The Robe/Kimono and romper are from Victoria Secrets. I love the soft color of light blush and the lace detail on the Kimono, this could also be worn with jeans and a tank to go out it. I love things you can get multi use out of. Romper’s are all the rage in and out of the bed room! I love the playfulness of a romper, the color of soft pink is just one of my favorite’s. The robe was $79.99 and the Romper $45.00

I am in love with Prosecco by Lamarca, $12-17 a bottle. It’s a yummy sparkling wine with the fun feel of champagne! ( I do not love Champagne but I love the Idea of champagne!) Pop open a bottle and add some fresh berries and a splash of your favorite juice! YUM!

Statement earring are making a huge come back for Spring and these beauties got me from JCrew $79.00 Makes for a beautiful Bridal gift. I love wearing pretty jewelry for a special night even if it’s with lingerie.

My Hubby and I are celebrating 21 years on February 25th and I truly feel blessed to have found my match for life. I adore the man I married and he still makes my heart flutter. When I saw these Dish towels it wasn’t even a thought…they flew into my cart $7.99 at HomeGoods. The hubby & wifey glasses $3.99 each TGmax (both would make a cute bridal shower gift)

I hope you can add some romance to your life…Even if it’s just in the decor! OX D’Arcy

White Jeans and Wedge Sandal Wednesday

Wednesday already! I am sure you all love a short week like I do.

Today I wanted to talk to about White jeans…I know some of you are afraid of White jeans! You don’t have to be there is a White jean for every body type. One of the reasons I LOVE Kut from the Kloth jeans. They make a body style (named after girls for every body type) Plus super affordable $79-89 a pair. They fit true woman sizing 0-14 so order your size or a size tight because they stretch.

Catherine= A boyfriend jean, which is loose fitting, cropped and fits at hip. Perfect for someone who doesn’t want tight on legs or bum. (I am modeling this fit in photo)

Mia= a ultra skinny leg & tight fit but has a ton of stretch (this is the body style I most always am wearing due to my skinny legs.) This jean works great in a boot and is perfect for someone with skinny legs or that loves a tight fit.

Diana= skinny jean but on most I feel this jean is more of a straight leg. Its not super tight (does not show cellulite) and works on everybody type. Has a touch higher waist but not a mom jean. The Diana is there BEST seller.

Natalie= is a flared leg jean for those who don’t feel they can rock a skinny jean. Also great on a long leg.

Kut from the Kloth has about 6 other body types named after girls as well. I just did my top fav’s.

All of these body types come in white and can be worn on any size figure. So if you are hesitant about wearing white jeans, please try a pair of Kut from the Kloth’s you’l love and be so happy you did.

Reasons to own a pair of white jeans…… There classic & crisp and go with everything! You can wear year round but are an essential piece for Spring & Summer! A white jean is very chic! You’ll be seeing me in a ton in the months ahead!

Now that I hope I have convince you to buy a pair of white jeans lets talk about the strap wedge sandal or wedge ankle strap sandal (I am wearing the strap wedge in this shot) in camel color. Its a must have wedge, you can stand all day in it. You won’t kill yourself if your not a heal wearer and its a classic color that goes with everything. This wedge style can go with shorts, jeans, dresses and skirts. Its a shoe that is Huge on the Spring Trend list but I feel it really is a classic. Every designer is making this shoe so you can find it anywhere from $35-350 depending on the designer. Mine where $39 at Chic Style Utah last year with a close look alike coming in soon.

Top by Hem and Thread, bag by Louis Vuitton, Arm candy by Zenzii, watch by Michael Kors, Belt by Hermes, Jeans by Kut from the Kloth, Bar necklaces by Girly , Lip color by mac

Have a wonderful Wednesday and check back tomorrow for My 15 trends for Spring. OX, D’Arcy

Getting ready for New Years Eve ….Nails, Champagne & clothes

New Year’s Eve nail and Diy Glitter Champagne bottle

Sparkle and Glitz

2016 is coming to an end…. Later this week All post My 2016 resolutions and how it turned out

(It was the first year I made any Resolution’s) As we get closer to New Years Eve I thought I would share a couple things I did to get ready for the night. First thing was I had my cute nail girl do my nails In a fun champagne toast theme… I hadn’t decided what I was wearing so we went with a mix of things. Red on 3, 1 white with rose gold & silver glitter over white and a black nail with a hand painted silver flute….. Now I can pick any outfit and it will work knowing my festive clothes are All in those tones….

2nd was to create a DIY project with a bottle of Champagne ….. Everything looks better with glitter 💕 You’ll need a bottle, mod podge, a brush and glitter of your choice ( I did gold , rose gold and silver) spray sealer . cover bottle in mod podge roll or sprinkle fitter on and let dry… Repeat if layering colors , let dry then spray with sealant or cover with mod podge again let dry… Voilà a pretty Bottle for your New Year’s festivities 🎉🍾

3rd. Finding a festive outfit in your closet…. Funny thing, I went into my closet and pulled all my sparkle or festive tops, any thing with beading, sequins or flash…. It all happened to be in the same blush, gold, white, cream family…. I am drawn to sparkles, beading and metallic so I had a few good choices to pick from out of my years of collecting. TIP it’s good to save classic dressy pieces. I was only pulling tops or vest to see what I could come up with. I found some cute items that would go perfectly with Black leather pants and heals…. Add some fun accessories and your set. Knowing we are probably going to a house party , Where you want to look festive but not overdressed. (we were invited to a black tie cocktail party as well and will show that outfit tomorrow) hope you find inspiration in this post and can dig up some great treasures in your closet.

Happy Last week of 2016 ❤️D’Arcy

Way to do the Holiday’s in Pink

Holiday in PINK

Re-thinking the Traditional Holiday red & green for this years Holiday Color💕 it’s ok not to do the traditional colors and decorate & wear colors that make you happy. Pale pink is my favorite color, I think it makes for a fun Holiday color, Soft, looks pretty with fresh greenery and perfect in Snow. Nothing like a big cozy sweater in your favorite color to help you enjoy the cooler weather and enjoy the Holiday festivities . Branch out and choose a color that makes you look and feel good😘

Sweater by Leith, jeans by Edyson, shoes Badgley Mischka, large pink ring Zenzii, eyeliner Teddy by Mac and Lipstick and liner Chanel 05 mordore nude liner / 54 boy lipstick

Enjoy your Holiday season ❤️D’Arcy

Way to Wear Flared Jeans

Sts flared Jean trouser
Areve lace top
Christian Louboutin shoes

The Flared Trouser Jean….It’s not always about the Skinny Jean. All though the skinny is super versatile. The flared Trouser has a great place in your Jean pile. The flared Jean works great for a dressed up look Shown above & perfect for making your legs look longer. Typically sold with a longer hem works perfect with a heel and you want it to cover the top of your foot so your shoe peeps out, given you a longer leg💕 Now who doesn’t want that! 😘
