Metallics are such a huge trend right now but can be a little tricky to pull off! Here are some of my favorite tips on how to do this trend

Mastering Metallics

Go For Gold

Gold looks glamorous and will make you feel like it too! Gold richens your skin tone, and hair, and you can't go wrong with this metallic color. Gold Sequin Shirt, H&M, $34.95

Keep It Loose

To keep away from an edgy look stick with a loose sweatshirt. This will help soften your look. Grey Metallic Sweater, H&M, $24.95

Make It Preppy

Metallics paired with collared shirts are happy and fun! It's the best way to make this look sophisticated. Gold Flecked Sweater, H&M, $34.95

Bold Is Beautiful

If this trend doesn't scare you then GO BOLD. If you own it everyone will love it! Leopard Print Dress, Macys, $65.40

There are so many different trends and style options out there that it can be hard to know where you fit in, or if you can pull off a certain look. Use these tips to find your true fashion style.

Be individual

To be in fashion is following all the trends: shape, color, accessories, etc. But to be in style you need to be yourself and be creative. Just make sure you are adding your own flair to any outfit. No matter what style you belong to, just make it your own.

Own it

Don't wear it because it's "in," wear it because it's you. A confident woman will always be (and look) in style. You need to be confident and comfortable as the person you are. As Audrey Hepburn said, "happy girls are the prettiest."

Find inspiration

There are so many great resources to find style you love. Pull pages out of your favorite magazines, or follow a celebrities cue. Pinterest is also a great new website where you can find and save all sorts of great style photos.

Channa says "can u tell me where u got your cute skirt that u were wearing on Studio 5 Tuesday??:)"

I just got my skirt on our wonderful L.A Trip at ZARA I LOVE this place! Its a must stop every time I go.

Favorite thing alert!

I have to tell you about my black top. IM OBSESSED!!! But really I am. I have finally found the best undershirt. Finally someone got it right! My friend just gave it to me for my birthday and I almost wear it everyday! Its the best undershirt because ...

*Its not that cotton material that fades, balls up, and stretches out

*It holds me right in :)  (because its spandex)

*The neck line is PERFECT!!!

*It looks nice enough I can wear it alone.  (which I never can with the other brands)

See? Perfection.

Honeysuckle Pink!

The time is here! Pantone released the color of 2011: Honeysuckle Pink. The Pantone Color Institute sets the color trends each year and we will now be seeing Honeysuckle Pink in a big way, specifically in fashion and home decor. The executive director of the Pantone Color Institute says that "Honeysuckle is about energizing us. In times of stress, we need something to lift our spirits. Honeysuckle is a captivating, stimulating color that gets the adrenaline going, perfect to ward off the blues."

Pink can easily overwhelm a look, so I would pair this color with neutrals or hints of green. A bright pink lip is really popular right now; just make sure the rest of your look is soft. The good news is this shade of pink looks great on most skin tones. A lot of designers have incorporated this as part of their spring line, so keep your eyes open for pops of honeysuckle appearing everywhere!

Here is a peak of H&M's spring line

I have talked about this great secret place to shop before, but today on zulily have a killer deal that would work great for photos! Petti skirts have been quite popular in photos and these are great because they are only $13 :) I would go for these softer colors that you could pair up with a nice leopard cardigan to richen up the look. Sometimes you need to be careful with the bold contrasting colors in petti skirts because it can look cheesey cheapen the look :) Hurry and get them they sell out fast!

You will love this spot. This is where I get almost all my girls designer labels. They often sell lola et moi, and twirls and twigs. They are some of my favs!

Happy Shopping!
