Fashion 101: Take Home the Booties!

Booties are the cutest cold weather! They can even be worn throughout spring depending upon the fabric they're made of. Buckles, laces, and cutouts add so much character and style to an entire look! Plus, you can add colorful and printed socks for extra warmth and chicness. I love seeing booties style with rolled up jeans, tights and skirts, and of course with nice pair of socks. Whether you booties are flats, a high heel, or a lot of bedazzle, booties are definitely a great addition to anyone's shoe collection.

Trend 101: All Black at the White Shows

Spring 2013 is all about stand out prints and colors which is why black and white outfit combos are becoming a major trend. The color contrast between white and black is major and can be seen in so many different styles, prints, and pieces that it's almost impossible not to fall in love with the trend. My favorite way of rocking this trend is through stripes or a graphic tee. Black and white stripes can look very feminine and classy, but still be turned edgy and chic in seconds while a graphic tee will always keep you comfty and casual. Not only that, but a black and white outfit combo is perfect to pair with bold colored accesories, purse, and shoes! So many options are included with this trend which makes it a must to try out.

How do you style the black and white trend?

Top 4 Accessorizing Tips

Mixed Jewelry by lyndseycamille featuring a cross ring

Mixed metals, stacked bracelets, chunky necklaces and statement rings have taken the accessory world by storm. jewelry can make or break an outfit, too many pieces can make your outfit look like a costume and just enough can give you that extra sparkle. There are so many ways to accessorize and amp up your look and below are my top 5 tips on accessorizing.

Mix Metals! Don't be afraid to mix gold, silver, and copper accessories together. The contrast is like putting together different prints in an outfits but with jewelry. Just remember to keep a balance on the amount of each metal.
Top or Bottom?! I tend to stick to a top or bottom rule with accessorizing. You never want to be weighed down in accessories so pick whether you want more rings and bracelets on the bottom or go for earrings and necklaces up top.
Go for the Quirks! Jewelry ranges from big hoop diamond earrings to mustache shaped necklaces. Don't be afraid to try out the huge statement rings, food shaped necklaces, and stacks of bracelets because they are what help make your outfit more detailed and interesting.
Revision and Moderation! You never want to be the girl with the loud clashing bracelets on, so be sure to walk around your room and look in the mirror to see just how many accessories your wearing. If you think it's too much, just take one or two pieces off and you'll be ready to go.

What is your favorite accessory piece?

Swimsuit Series: Cover-Ups

Summer Additions by lyndseycamille featuring brim straw hats

A great cover-up is needed for the walks to and from the beach or pool. I am super in love with using rompers as cover-ups beacause they hide both the bottom and top halves of your body. Rompers are very loose, flowly, and easy to take off so right into the water. A long sheer blouse is also perfect as a cover up because they are usually long enough to stop around the bottom area and look super chic. The easiest cover-up is probably already in your closet because it is just a simple loose t-shirt. A loose t-shirt goes well right over a swimsuit top and it gives extra use to the everyday t-shirt. Don't forget cool additions to your swimsuit like a lovely fedora or floppy hat and of course...Sunscreen!

Must Have Friday: Girly Girl Vibes

My Must Haves by lyndseycamille featuring aldo jewelry

I declare this Friday to be Must Have Friday! There are always new items catching my eye and as you can see I am definitely into accessories at the moment. Rose golds and soft, but bright colors that give off a romantic girly feel kept grabbing my attention. I am especially digging the ear cuff and the floppy hat! Although I am not going to go out and purchase all these items, it is still fun to browse at the things you like.

What are some of your must haves?
