THE NAUTICAL LOOK....
The right way of pulling off the nautical look without looking like captain the sailor man.. .
1. ALWAYS tie in khaki somehow so you can achieve the "preppy" look instead of captain bob.
2. ONLY where ONE striped piece of clothing at one time.
3. Mix in either a little red or blue (not BOTH unless its fourth of july)
4. FINALLY just look relaxed because you’re on a yacht (or maybe sailboat but still.....enjoy yourself and be comfortable!!)

Denim Dan
VS.
Now every girl can look like they just rode a horse right out of a Ralph Lauren ad without breaking the bank. The Key to making it look chic and effortless is (1) make sure to pair different washes/distress looks together (never wear all the same color denim at once) (2) if you go slim and tight on the bottom, loosen up on the top or vice versa (3) accessorize with a great pair of brown leather clogs or turquoise jewelry to break up all the denim.
Follow these tips and you should stay clear of pulling a jay leno off or better known as a denim dan.

UGGly
A recent article by Daily Mail proved why knock off ugg boots can be a serious health risk to women's precious feet. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU for giving me one more reason NEVER to purchase knock offs any shape or form of an ugg boot. Its bad enough that women continue to wear these awful shaped boots season after season -EVEN though they do not flatter or enhance any outfit what so ever! Hopefully now with medical expert advice- women will put a stop to the ugg boots.
Dr. Ian Drysdale, the head of the British College of Osteopathic Medicine, said, “Because these boots are warm and soft, young girls think they are giving their feet a break. In fact, they are literally breaking their feet.” Drysdale continued, “Their feet are slipping around inside. With each step, the force falls towards the inside of the foot and the feet splay. This flattens the arch and makes it drop. The result can be significant problems with the foot, the ankle, and ultimately, the hip.”

NEUTRAL ZONE!

TAN!! who cant pull off that color- right? i love love love that 90's nude is back and whats even greater is- if you purchase it in the right pieces (fyi-a great trench or an amazing pair of trousers) it will become a classic staple in your wardrobe every season.

Oscars' SMACK down
After watching the Oscars this past weekend- there was ONE trend that I noticed every celeb wearing that I could actually afford without having to sell my car, my blackberry (this would be the last to go), or my little sister so I could look like the queen of the ball in a glowing sequin Marchesa gown like Sandra Bullock- and NO I'm not referring to Spanxs' either! I'm talking about the showdown of who wore BRIGHT COLORED LIPSTICK the best.
You too can add a pop of color to your ensemble by just purchasing a tube of lipstick all under $30 dollars- AND its okay to wear it two days in a row!
