Kate can wear a hat!!!

Hello!

The lady; dimples and all, do give new meaning to the term 'hat(s)!'

http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/beauty/fashion/g2563/history-of-kate-middletons-hats/?src=nl&mag=ghk&list=nl_gga_news&date=062515

Keep them coming; Kate, keep them coming!

If you haven't seen Etro's Spring 2016 Menswear collection, you are in for a treat! In one word, the collection is "Smoking!" It is; hands down, the best 2016 menswear collection - yet!

http://www.style.com/slideshows/fashion-shows/spring-2016-menswear/etro/collection/1

It's the fit; the fabric; the print(s); the styling; the color(s)!

It's classy, and yet contemporary!

It's dressy, and yet laid-back!

It's look g-o-o-d, and it's not fussy!

I tell you the truth:  it is everything!

Two thumbs up!

It's been a scorcher; thusfar, and we are only 5 days into summer! Markdowns for warm weather gear is on! [In our neck of the woods, summer-like weather can go through the end of September!] Phew! A thing or two to consider adding to your arsenal or getting more of...

1)  Shades:  the perfect accessory!

Note:  color[ful] lenses are coming on strong, this year!

2)  Lace or fringe, something or another!

If white lace [clothing] is not your thing, why not try a white hat, white handbag or shoes? It looks fresh; not to mention, crisp! And speaking of shoes...

3)  Gladiators!

Oh; yes, timeless! Fun, too!

As of today, there are 182 more days until:  Christmas, Friday, December 2015!

Thank you for sharing "this stylist journey" along the side of me with family, friends, business associates and acquaintances!

Happy July 4th!

Shalom!

White lace is "white h-o-t," for summer!

Be it a jacket/dress/blouse/skirt/pants/pair of shorts, it is all of that and some, for the warm weather season!   

Some of the best selections can be found at http://www.belk.com; I think, for the money!

http://www.belk.com/search/search_results.jsp?ZZ_ST=lace%20dress&ZZ%3C%3EtP=4294923540&ZZ%3C%3Et=lace%20dress&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474395191292&cm_mmc=Search-Google-_-T1-G-WomensDresses-_-G%20-%20Lace-_-09cdb3f7-5e66-4f11-806d-6ae0c6e9295d&ktid=25-535936&gclid=CLfBkIGRnMYCFdgLgQodgLcFoQ#ZZ<>tP=4294923540&ZZ_PO=0&ZZ_ST=lace+dress&fO=AND%28Category_Path%2CNOT%28P_IS_PRODUCT_SEARCHABLE%3AN%29%29&ZZ_OPT=Y&NavNumAggrERecs=100&FOLDER<>folder_id=1408474395191292&bmUID=kTSiA3M

If your tastes are more refined; shall we say, you won't be disappointed at what you will find at http://www.shopbop.com either!  

http://www.shopbop.com/special-trend-edit-lace/br/v=1/2534374302200000.htm

The million dollar question [now] is: What do I wear under all of that white? A lining; per se, will NOT be enough in the majority of cases. And, most experts will agree that white or black is a no-no. I myself suggest softly colored or skin tone neutrals...

http://nymag.com/thecut/2015/05/guide-for-what-to-wear-under-white-clothing.html 

If all white is not your forte, pair it with a favorite color or two or more:  if you dare! Add interesting accessories (jewelry, handbag and shoes), and you are rea-dy!

As of today, there are 190 more days until:  Christmas, Friday, December 25, 2015!

Thank you for sharing "this stylist journey" along the side of me with family, friends, business associates and acquaintances!

Happy Father's Day!

Shalom!

Menswear 2016 shows have just begun!

Hello!

And, until there is something to report on...

Style.com has shared a few ideas on what men can wear this summer! Their ideas are; shall we say, a bit limiting! Menswear has come so much farther than that! Suggestion? Do not be afraid to mix-and-match + accessorize! Just like the ladies; guys, you will be amazed at what you can do with a few select pieces!

http://www.style.com/trends/fashion/2015/itmf-summer-menswear-outfit-ideas?mbid=nl_061015_Daily&CNDID=26016197&spMailingID=7815600&spUserID=NDEyMDUxODY3NzIS1&spJobID=701343525&spReportId=NzAxMzQzNTI1S0

View my https://www.pinterest.com/msangelalvann/fav-menswear-2015/ AND https://www.pinterest.com/msangelalvann/fav-mens-accessories-2015/
pages, for suggestions! See something that you like? But, of course you do! I will be able to find it (or something similar), at your price point! How's that for service?

This internet connection is not allowing me to say more:  today! Therefore...

As of today, there are 197 more days until:  Christmas, Friday, December 2015!

Thank you for sharing "this stylist journey" along the side of me with family, friends, business associates and acquaintances!

Happy Weekend!

Shalom!

Resort 2016 is in full swing!

Hello!

All in all, the collections are small but colorful! This is usually a good time to check out the trench coats! Thusfar, I like several!

https://www.pinterest.com/msangelalvann/fav-trenches-2016/

I think it is safe to say, pants are lengthening! Well, hallelujah! And the jumpsuits are still garnering their share of attention! It's still about "that 70's thing," ya know?

https://www.pinterest.com/msangelalvann/fav-pants-2016/

But more about these here things, later...

Wedding season is in full swing, too! Most of us will not purchase 'a new outfit' for each gala! Mix-And-Match + Accessorize, that's my motto! You can't possibly go wrong!

http://nymag.com/thecut/2015/05/get-through-wedding-season-with-one-dress.html?om_rid=AADWEj&om_mid=_BVcKmRB9CTZ7ax

It's true! A perfect white blouse, be it a t-shirt (or a button down), will take you through the summer! A word to the wise:  get more than one at a time!

As of today, there are 204 more days until:  Christmas, Friday, December 2015!

Thank you for sharing "this stylist journey" along the side of me with family, friends, business associates and acquaintances!

Happy Weekend!
