Fall and winter weather call for sweaters, jackets, layers, and overall bulkiness which can make you feel like a complete frump. Now there is no  way you can go out without at least a jacket, but you can make your outerwear and sweater more fitted. Try out these tips to make sure you look good while staying warm and cozy in your outerwear.

1. Fitted Jackets! Fitted jackets work like blazers, they help to keep with and define our frame. Fitted jackets are perfect for the fall because they are not too heavy, but will still keep you warm.
2. Stand Out Color! Outerwear in dark colors can get old, try it in a vibrant grey, bright whites, or even be bold and go for reds or purples. The colors take away from all the extra layers and make your look shine.
3. Try It On! You're always supposed to try clothing on before making the purchase, but you especially need to follow this rule with sweaters and jackets. A too big sweater will look super baggy on you and not fit under your jacket and a too small jacket will not go over your outfit.
4. Thin Sweaters! A thin sweater may seem like a contradiction of the whole point of a sweater, but it actually works better. A thin sweater is easy to layer with, it can go underneath leather and fur vests, jackets, and more.
5. Belt it! The best thing you can ever do is define your waist which can be done with wide or medium belt. The belt will showcase the tiniest part of your body and even give you an hourglass shape effect.
6. Bows, Studs, and Details! Accessories will always lighten up our outfit and make it come to life instead of a dud. Adding clip on bows to neckline, studs to color, using print/pattern, anything to add detail to your overall look will make your sweaters and outwear more fun.

Hair 101: Don't Fear the Wind

Fall weather is so beautiful, peaceful, and breezy, but it can also be damaging to your hair. The windy breezy can blow your hair all out of place and create tangles. The fall is a great time to get your hair back healthy and try out different protective hairstyles. Hair accessories and updo's are a girl's best friend during the colder and windier seasons of the year.

Wearing your hair down during the fall can be a struggle, you have to keep it in place and out of your lip gloss! A half up- half down style is great style to wear if you want to wear your hair down but out of your face, plus since there are a couple of clips in the back your hair will stay in place better. Instead of a half up-half down look you can even try twisting or braiding the front pieces and clipping them back with beautiful barrettes.

Buns and ponytails are definitely the best choice if your worried about your hair flying out of place or becoming tangled. There are so many different type of buns and ponytails from topknots to ballerina buns and high ponytails to side ponytails. You can accessorizes buns and ponytails by adding sparkly bobby pins, flower clips, and more! If your daring enough you can even add bold color like Lauren Conrad and Demi Lovato.



Fashion 101: The Peplum

Peplum style skirts and dresses are so unique and help form and define curves. I love the peplum style, it reminds me of a bit of a tutu mixed with lots of chic! A peplum is basically just a sort of frill added in the waist section of a skirt of dress. I recommend that for anyone wanting to show off their waist or create a smaller waist to try out a peplum style. Beyonce's peplum begins exactly at the waist and is continued by a pencil bottom.Beyonce's peplum helps to show off her flat abs as well as her small waist because the rest of the dress is tight. Kourtney Kardashian wears her peplum in the style of a mini dress accented by a cute zipper. Just like Beyonce's peplum, Kourtney's begins right at the waist giving her a nice curve and small waist. The color of the dress is lovely and the snake skin clutch is perfect! Emma Stone's peplum is a bit weird since the fabric is bubbled up and sticking outward from her body. However, the color scheme is great! Be sure when purchasing a peplum style that the fabric is not to thick and that it is goin around your body equally. A peplum should be flattering!

Are you trying out the peplum style?

Fashion 101: The Kid's Choice Awards 2012

Katy Perry

Selena Gomez

Miranda Cosgrove

Emma Stone

The Kid's Choice Awards aired last night and altough I did not watch the entire show, I did see some trending outfits. As the stars walked down the orange carpet, I noticed similar styles such as the midriff baring Katy Perry and Selena Gomez and the soft leather dresses worn by Emma Stone and Miranda Cosgrove. Katy Perry kept with the neon trend, all the peices of her outfit can definietly be made into an everyday outfit. Selena Gomez sticks to a girly theme throughtout her outfit by wearing soft pinks and silver and a cocktail ring. Miranda Cosgrove keeps it edgy, but still spring in a bright blue leather dress and black booties. Emma Stone has a sweet, romantic look by wearing a neutral colored leather dress and tan wedges. Her blonde, wavy hair adds more sweetness to the look. Although their were no showstopping dresses, I did see many styles that can work for everyday and are still super cute.

Which outfit(s) are you loving?

Get The Look: Emma Stone

Emma Stone has to be one of my favorite celebrities, she always has a cool girl vibe. I love this outfit she is wearing, it is super chic and perfect for an everyday look. Emma pairs comfortable black flats with grey skinny jeans and a striped top. The shades and motorcycle jacket make the look stand out and become super chic. Emma's bag is also very cool and the color contrast goes well against the black and grey, check out the twisted strap design! Emma's beauty look is kept natural and her hair is pulled back into a messy bun. I'm very into this look and even plan to recreate myself. Try it out chicas!

Get The Look: Polka Dots For Prom

Emma Stone

Emma Stone looks absolutely gorgeous in this dress at the premier of the movie, The Help. Emma Stone was an amazing actress in the movie which called for an equally amazing dress. A dress like this is perfect for quirky girls or anyone who wants to try something different. The polka dots are a unique touch as well as the shoulder cut outs and the criss-cross going across the chest. It's great because the small chest cut out stays appropriate for prom because it does not show too much. The small belt around the waist prevents the dress from becoming to loose and baggy and instead defines the waist. The look calls for very minimal accessories because of the heavy print so stick to small earrings. Emma's red lips go perfectly with this dress and the waves in her hair give off an old Hollywood flair. I am really liking this look for prom or any other special occasion, it's always great to try something unique and different. Try it out chicas!
