Must-Have Monday: Patterned Pants

Hey Everyone!

Welcome back to another Must-Have Monday!

Today's must have is an awesome spring trend: patterned pants! I have always wanted a pair on patterned pants but I was worried that they would draw too much attention to my legs. However, I found a pair and this was not the case. These pants are so chic and comfortable and with the right styling tips they look amazing. That being said, today's post has some tips so you can try this must-have trend too!

1. Show a little skin: on a warm spring day, try a simple crop top with high-waisted patterned pants. Add heels for a more sophisticated look, and don't forget killer accessories!

2. Loosen-up: If your patterned pants are more on the tight side, try a loose tee. And if you wanna add a little more, where a chic sunhat!

3. Accessorize with Colour: If you have coloured pants, choose a colour from them that you like and match your purse to that colour while keeping the top neutral

4. Pick and Choose: similar to number 3, if your pants have some colour, choose one colour and match it with your top. A button down top always adds an extra level of sophistication.

5. Chambray: Chambray tops work with anything, including patterned pants, just button it up and tuck it in. You can also add a little something extra with a bright coloured purse.

6. Blazer: Try patterned pants in the office by throwing on a blazer and heels.  

7. Get loose and tuck it in: Similar to number 2, opt for a loose tee, but add some extra class by tucking it in, and don't forget a matching purse!

That's it for today! Enjoy the rest of your Monday!

Spring Dresses

Hello!

Happy Friday! Hope everyone had a great week and is going to have an even better weekend! Today's post is about spring's most flattering dresses for every shape. Whether you're athletic (like me), lean, curvy, petite, boyish or busty there is a perfect spring dress for you, just keep reading!!

1. Athletic: stick to dresses with minimalistic and architectural structures, but don't be afraid to risks here and there, try cutouts like below.

2. Lean: try classy pieces, that are fitted, which is fashion-forward, flattering, and appropriate for both a day and night. Don’t be afraid of prints, which add a bit of depth to your slender frame and won't overpower you.

3. Curvy: For a curvier figure, try dresses that stick to one or two colours. The shape should be one that cinches in at the waist, and in a style that hits right below the knee

4. Petite:  If you have a petite shape, try wearing girly, flowery looks and layers, mixed textures, or bright colours.

5. Boyish: Try new things and don’t be afraid to change it up, your narrow frame gives you a lot of freedom when it comes to silhouettes.

6: Busty: when choosing dresses for spring, focusing on modest v-necks that show just enough skin, narrowed waists, and flared hemlines.

How to: Perfect Beach Waves

Hello fashionistas!

As summer approaches it is important to know how to create the seasons hottest hair trend: beach waves. It can be difficult, but this guide will help you get the perfect hair for summer, whether you have straight, wavy, or curly hair, and if you are actually going to the beach or not!

Bumble and bumble. Surf Spray, $25

Straight: Wash hair and let air dry, then apply a texturizing spray. With a medium sized curling iron, take 2-inch sections of hair and wrap it around the barrel. You don't want your hair to look too perfect so take messy sections. After the curls cool, finger comb and spritz in more texturizing spray if needed. 

A good product to try for texturizing spray is Bumble and bumble surf spray, $25 sephora.com

Miss Jessie’s Pillow Soft Curls, $22, missjessies.com

Wavy: Start with day-old locks for a little extra texture. If you want to get tousled waves fresh out of the shower, apply a curl cream, put your hair in a loose bun, let it dry, then touch up any flat sections with a large barrel curling iron. Flip your head upside down, spray all over with a texturizing spray, and lightly scrunch the curls with your hands! 



Curly: Blow out your hair with a round brush to straighten your hair out a bit before creating the waves. Apply an anti-frizz serum before you grab your blow dryer, so summer humidity won’t ruin your look. Then, use a medium-sized curling iron to create loose waves and add a surf spray for texture. 
Try Frizz-Ease Hair Serum Extra-Strength Forula, $9, drugstore.com

Marc Anthony Beach Waves spray, $10,
amazon.com

There you have it! How to get the perfect beach waves no matter what type of hair you have. Click here for the full article from Seventeen Magazine.

Personally, after I wash my hair I scrunch it with Marc Anthony Beach Waves spray, then, when my hair is still slightly damp, I tie it in a loose bun. Once I take it out...BAM... perfect beach waves!
I recommend that if you aren't happy with your beach waves, watch a couple of youtube videos, they are always super helpful!

Thanks for reading today's post and I hope it was helpful!
Have a great day, and see you next time!
