Escape into summer with a Wallis caftan

June 21, 2013 in General Fashion tagged dresses / outfits / summer 2013 / wallis by Cheap Luxury Handbags Store

Summer is upon us which means pool parties, vacations to luxury resorts, beach getaways and many exciting outdoor activities. Fabulous outdoor parties, events and more call for none other than a colorful caftan! That’s right! The popular 1960’s and 1970’s trend is back. Caftans are hot for summer.

I love this colorful, striped caftan from Wallis. The colors are vibrant and the hi-lo silhouette offers a flattering contour and comfortable fit. The fabric breaths; allowing the cool breeze from the ocean to keep me cool during a warm weather, summer event! Love that!

Wallis is a fabulous online shop which offers more than just caftans. They have beautiful tops and dresses which are priced right. I’m looking forward to picking up more pieces from Wallis to add to my wardrobe. Definitely check out their website and you may just find a colorful caftan for that upcoming summer party too!

Anchors Away!

June 19, 2013 in Bay Area Fashion / Eco Chic / General Fashion / Jewelry / Local Designers tagged earrings / nautical / necklaces / outfits / summer 2013 / twisted silver by Cheap Luxury Handbags Store

Anchors are a huge trend this year. This nautical symbol is popping up everywhere on apparel, accessories and jewelry! Although considered classic, anchors have an important place in street style this year and Twisted Silver has designed the perfect jewelry collection for celebrating this sea-worthy trend; the “Anchors Away!” collection.

This eco-chic collection offers a lightweight pair of earrings and adjustable necklace. The necklace can be worn as a lariat or pendant necklace. Love that! Twisted Silver added a little bit of oceanic love to the “Anchors Away!” collection by pairing the anchors with a hearts and blue beads. What better way to celebrate your love for the sea!

I love wearing the necklace as a lariat and find the collection works perfectly with summer attire. Since navy is going to be a huge color in the fall 2013 color palette, Twisted Silver’s “Anchors Away!” collection will easily blend with fall attire due to the copper metal and blue beads. Love that!

In these photos I wore Twisted Silver “Anchors Away!” collection to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk with my family and paired them with these fun elephant shorts from Banana Republic’s Milly collection. My kids adored the hearts and anchors, as well as the elephants!
