Along with the typical and always popular floral prints, lace, and pastel colors that are staples for spring, a new trend is rising up with the flowers - holographic material. Sounds futuristic, right? But holographic clothes aren't just for the Jetson's anymore, it's for all of us. There are two ways to do this trend - go all the way, or just a touch here and there. For those of you who are all in on the holographic/iridescent trend, get ready because the sheen and shimmer of this trend will knock you off your feet.

This sweet Deena & Ozzy cardholder amplifies the holographic material with its quilted detailing. Loving it already? Love it even more for its $14 price tag.

Whatever your preference, holographic accessories and details can fit into your style in a multitude of ways. Whether you consider yourself sporty, preppy, or edgy - that iridescent quality is sure to add a little sparkle to your day! Stay trendy, lovely ladies!

Full Skirts Ahead

It is about that time of year! Before you know it, warm summer days will transform to crisp and cool weather. As for Fall Fashion trends...they are already here! But instead of sending a trench coat your way, ease your way into a garment that will bode well during the transition from one season to the next. We suggest one of Fall Fashion's favorites, full skirts!

Full skirts usually range from above the knee to mid calf but offer an array of styling options. The more popular version of the full skirt hits right above the knee. Below are a few examples (some offer a relaxed look while others are more structured).

If you are not completely satisfied with this particular version of full skirts, try a midi version. "Midi" full skirts can fall to the calf (depending on height). This sister skirt showcases just as much class if not more than the latter [shorter] full skirt, and is just as versatile.

Get the Best Look for July 4th with Overalls

Today we salute to the red white and blue! We count our blessings and celebrate our freedoms even though our fingers may be dripping with watermelon juice.

Amidst the fireworks, BBQ, and picnics stands a tradition that deserves a little dusting off, the true blue, DENIM. But to stand proud this holiday, we say "Redefine your Independence", and go for the overalls!

Even when the celebration ends, you will surely have other opportunities to showcase your patriotic side in these scarves: plaid | stripes | floral | American flag

The best part about overalls is that they are a top find at local thrift shops!

*Don't forget! Being able to adjust the length of the straps can solve length issues*

If you still are on the fence about overalls, go for an alternative such as a jumpsuit.

Denim Jumpsuit | Sleeveless Denim

Effortless hairdos are made easy with head-wraps (can be found in an array of different colors)!

So what will it be? The Grand Ole Overalls or a Jumpsuit we all Salute to! The choice is ultimately yours!

Happy Fourth of July!
