Style Trend: Bright Blazers

April 9, 2012 Posted on April 9, 2012 by Monique

You know it’s all about bright colors this spring! And now blazers are definitely getting in on the action. I know we always complain that we can’t find blazers in our sizes, but I think I might have you covered. I found a few below that are not only in amazingly bold colors, but they come in a range of plus sizes and prices. And they aren’t that traditional blazer style either. Check out the cropped style from Jessica London or this beautiful wrapped style from Ashley Stewart. Throw it over a spring dress or with a pair of your … Continue reading →

Hey ladies! When was the last time you took a second to shop for dresses at Ashley Stewart? I was just in there the other day and if I wasn’t in such a big hurry I definitely would’ve tried some of them on.

Some of the dresses below are “web exclusives” and are on sale. Take a second to shop what’s new & hot … Continue reading →

Style Trend: Pleats

October 5, 2011 Posted on October 5, 2011 by Monique

What do we know about pleats? We know it’s defined as a “type of fold formed by doubling fabric back upon itself and securing it in place.” But, did you know there are 11 types of pleats? I didn’t either! All I do know, is that when I went shopping the other day, I saw a lot of pleated pieces. Oh, and I’m not a big fan of ironing pleats. Too tedious! But, I do love the way they look. I’m kind of eyeing the burgundy Evans pleated maxi skirt (#11). So, what do you think? Are pleats the way … Continue reading →

Style Trend: Bold Knits & Stripes

August 26, 2011 Posted on August 26, 2011 by Monique

With only a few weeks of summer left, I’m already craving sweaters. Fall is calling me and so are these knits with their bold stripes. Sorry summer lovers, but it’s going to cold soon and I can’t wait to bundle up. Weather it’s a cardigan, poncho, or cropped sweater-bold stripes are looking really chic for the fall. They can be paired with a wide leg or skinny jean and a great pair of boots or flats. Ohhhhh a chunky necklace too! Sorry, fashion makes me excited. LOL. Awwww….hurry up and get cold already! Are bold stripes in your fashion future? … Continue reading →
