Blousy Tanks Galore

July 9, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Fashion Tips & Finds

Definitely a must have in your closet this Summer! They’re easy to wear, comfy and best of all affordable enough to buy a few. Keep in mind when picking out your blousy tank that the neckline should be kept on the low side (for a longer leaner look) and layer with a fitted tank if needed. Pair them with skinny jeans, leggings and shorts. For a laid back chic look wear them with slouchy pants and add some wedges or platform heels for a dressier look.

Celebrity Redo: Britney Spears

June 19, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Redo

Either Britney doesn’t have a stylist or she shares the same one with Jessica Simpson!  While she exudes that perfect  blend of adorable and sexy, it’s hard not to be mean when it comes to her sense of style (and being mean is just not my style!).  So, I’ll just get right to the redo.  I switched her shorts for white skinny jeans and added a plaid jacket  to maintain a theme for the outfit.  To round things out I gave her some pumps and a funky clutch.  Best thing about the outfit is that it’s all under $100!  What do you think of Britney’s fashion sense? How would you have dressed her?

Celebrity Copycat Deluxe: Katherine Heigl

February 14, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Copycat

Love Katherine Hiegl’s Spring chic look!  This is another one of those outfits that offers a ton of possibilities:  The cardigan can be worn over a dress for a more comfy look and even used to replace a jacket for the office.  The white shirt goes with everything (skirts, shorts or slacks).  I can totally see the boots paired with a denim skirt or a dress; and let’s not forget the adorable yellow bag – the perfect way  to add color to any outfit.  While the items alone are bit pricier, they offer such transferability to other pieces in your closet that I sincerely believe they are worth the investment and will, in the end, stretch your dollar by expanding your options.  See below for some examples.

Merino Lea Cardigan – $29.99 at Jcrew.com
