Tips To Care For Your Jeans

• Be Gentle: it's safe to machine wash your jeans just make sure to turn them inside out, and wash in cold water.

• Don't Wash Too Often: wear your jean 2-3 times before washing them this will help them last longer and fade less quickly.

• Hang To Dry: heat from the dryer can cause the color to fade.

• Tuble Dry: If you chose to put them in the dryer make sure you set it on the lowest heat or tumble dry.

• DON"T Dry Clean: Dry cleaning your jeans makes them look good in the short term, but over time it will weaken the denim, set stains and even trap orders.

• Distressed Jeans: Wash them by hand or waash on a delicate cycle.

Shoe Review

These shoes are stunning simplicity its a normal platform pump, and the leopard print makes it a stand out shoe! After I did the blog on Wild Things I notice that I didn't have a leopard accessories in my closet, and I seen this shoe on the Jessica Simpson website about a month ago, but I was disappointed that they were sold out in my size. While I was out shopping yesterday I found them in Dillard's and I was on the fence about getting them now or later. So when I woke up this morning I decided to go purchase them and I'm in love. This exquisite Jessica Simpson heel is 5.1 inches of chic, done right in pony hair with a 1.4 inch platform.

*Don't forget to add a bold leopard accessory to your wardrobe for the fall*

Shoe Review

I recently purchased these 3 pair of shoes that I adore these are a couple of shoes that I think are needed for your Fall wardrobe. (Not necessarily these same exact pair but similar)

The first pair on the left are Sam Edelman ballet flats. Any brand of ballet flats are essential to your fall fashion something that stands out and are far from simple. These flats are a crackle sliver which a huge bow on the front they are comfortable and a well put together sole. Most ballet flats have a soft bottom but these have a hard bottom for longer wear.

The pair in the middle are Steve Madden nude pump. This is a classic shoe that Steve Madden has in a lot of different colors in. A nude shoe is essential, because it can go with almost everything.

The last pair on the right are the very comfortable Jessica Simpson pumps. These shoes are my favorite because of the detailing. At the top of the shoe they have a snitching with small gold detail this is also ate the front of the shoe and they material that is used for the snitching is then tied into a bow.

Add a Little 60's To Your Wardrobe

Tie Dye has came along way from the hippie days. This is a right now trend!! That is moving into the fall but onto jeans, many girls that I have spoke with have said they can't see them selves wearing tie dye jeans, which is okay every trend that comes out doesn't mean you have to wear it. I believe that trends should be built around your wardrobe, and if there is a trend that doesn't fir your style DON'T WEAR IT!







This Tank is from Forever 21 this is just a sample of what I have been seeing in stores. I have also seen lots of tie dye dress and if you look above that is what the celebrities are wearing, but i just wanted to give you a different look.

THE ALWAYS TRENDY RIHANNA

Rihanna dressesd in menswear. The suits and oxfords are not just for men anymore ladies you can also wear a 2 piece suit. Some ladies may just choose to wear a boyfriend blazer which are normal more loose fitting so it actually looks as if you pulled it right from your boyfriends closet. If you go with the 2 piece option make sure that both pieces are form fitted so it still looks some what girly. (Below are a few options for menswear)

3 Quick Styling Tips

1. 
   
   Roll: if you have on a buttoned down shirt this will give the shirt a more trendy look if you roll the sleeves. Also rolling the cuff of your jeans can give it a more causal look(this looks best with boyfriend jeans)


2. 
   
   Half-tuck: tuck your shirt in the front to show off your waist and leave it untucked in the back


3. 
   
   Belt it: Belts always make unflattering dresses and shirts look better and it also gives you a waist
