| Color From Kermit greens to bubblegum pinks with a kick of banana yellow, wild color takes center stage this season not as an accent piece but as the theme. Any color will do, as long as it's a clear, bright hue and it flatters you. Pink and blue are two of the easiest colors to wear, so that's a great starting place. Fegolicious Please Do: Gucci it Up! Meaning, mix color with bright white or with like-minded prints (as Mr. Oscar de la Renta does). Fegolicious Don't!: Don�t you dare mix brights with black � so matronly and dated I will have to personally come over and take away your American Express card! Prints Still in the running...From brave and bright florals to brawny graphics, prints hold their own in a plethora of bright color. Hothouse flowers (Versace style) look especially fabulous for the warm weather of summer. Even black and white makes a statement with graphic prints, houndstooth and florals. Fegolicious Please Do: Make sure prints are scaled to match your bod: larger prints can overwhelm petites, ditsy prints look lost on big girls. Fegolicious Don't!: Don't where your sofa on your back! Meaning; leave the drapery patterns where they belong, on your windows. Dresses � Toga, Toga, Toga � drape it, off one-shoulder it, halter it � it�s �all the rage� and so sexy with a pair of metallic strappy sandals! � �Lucy I�m Home!� - The '50s are still big this Summer � It�s so cute, don�t you just love a full-skirted, knee-length dress for a tea party or a happy hour. � The '20s are important, too, with drop-waist dresses and sparkle (Marc Jacobs) that add a modern flapper edge. Fegolicious Please Do: Wear high heels with just about any dress � show those sexy streetwalkers off. Even mix and match, like Pink pumps with green savage dress. Fegolicious Don't!: Don't OVER trend. Small doses people, small doses. More! � Let it Flip and Flounce - from sheer to silk, just let it flow � Flowers and bows and ribbons (oh my!) � Skins and metallics: Still in! loving a little leopard action myself this summer! |
