Backpacks are BACK!! Will you be carrying one?  I never thought I would say it, but I've got my eye on a few cuties.  The backpack would be a great Mama and June bag.  From the runway to the streets, you gotta get you a BackBag.  Ha!  I like the sound of that better!

Love It or Leave It: The Crop Top




The Crop Top has made a comeback!!  Back in the 80's, if you didn't rock a crop top you were not stylin'.  Ha!  Then in the 90's it reappeared in the form of a bustier or bra top worn under a blazer or a starter jacket... bad fashion!  Today, it's taken a chic turn to styles with long-sleeves, tanks, cardigans, sweatshirts, and blouses.  Paired with culottes, midi or maxi skirts, harem pants, or shorts.  Throw on a jean or leather jacket, even a blazer to complete the look.  I will not be wearing this trend, but I'm still Loving It!  To those who can rock it. . .

Love It or Leave It: High-Waist Shorts

It's Summer...4th of July is tomorrow and vacations are booked!  All you need is a pair of high-waist shorts.  The high-waist thing is on trend for the season in swimsuits, pencil skirts, and cropped pants, and of course vintage.  When I saw this photo of  Dyan of Passion Foodie and our beloved Blah Blah Birds rocking some high-waist shorts during a trip to Jamaica, I definitely had to show how cute her look was and help you find some cuties to wear this Summer too.  So, here's what I found...

The envelope skirt, otherwise known as the "new" wrap skirt is popping up for Spring as it did in the last part of 2012.  I love this skirt!  Not for me, but if you have great legs this skirt is for you.  Very sexy chic.  Pair with some oxfords for day like these or these or a pair heels for night.

This Fall: The Chain Gang...

I'm thinking Fall is all about updated classics!  The button-down shirt, menswear, tweed blazers and skirts, oxfords, loafers,  and the list goes on.   Don't you think?  Well, lets talk handbags with a chain strap.  Major classic and to me always in style.   I love a handbag with a chain strap especially with a simple blazer and a pair of jeans.   It adds that flair and steps your look up a bit!   


Here are some of my favs...

This Fall: Sweaters!

This Fall, sweaters are stepping up in a big expensive way.   As I was flipping through my magazines and browsing the world wide web, I kept seeing Intarsia sweaters.  Yes, Intarsia!  The term was not familiar to me, so I looked it up.  Well, Intarsia is a form of knitting resembling a mosaic pattern that is visible on both sides of the fabric.  Just think of those terrible Christmas sweaters.  Ha!   I definitely didn't know that type of knit was called Intarsia.  Well, it's surely a classic knit and it's huge for the upcoming season.  They are a bit heavy on the pockets, but I found a few that were a bit lighter.   Intarsia, embellished, or printed;  the sweater is looking real exciting for Fall!   Nothing like a cozy sweater! 


Here are some of my fav cozies...
