Graduation Parties, Fathers Day, Moving up ceremonies- there are many events to flood our June calendar.  Such a fun anticipated time of the year.  Enjoy all the excitement in style with just a few key pieces of “party ready wear”. There is no need to stress about the ensemble, rather put that best foot forward and start turning heads, with a few accessory updates.
     Feet first!  Nothing updates a look like a great pair of gladiators sandals.  Go for a strappy mid calf, or lace up just a tad past the ankles.  If you’re looking to turn up the heat, try a gladiator tied up to the knee.  Be careful don’t put on any other accessories, and a very understated dress or skirt paired with the high tip gladiators.   Don’t be afraid to add a heel on the gladiator.  This helps to elongate the leg but don’t combine a heel and knee tie up, that’s way too much.  Pick a lane and stick with it, don’t weave in and out.  It’s a sizzling look on its own.
     Any tunic, crop top, or summer graphic tee is not complete without a layered beaded tassel necklace or long chain with a chunky natural stone.  We are looking for a boho effortless airy summer vibe.  Inspired by the 60’s with a very modern splash in the detail of the necklaces.  Beautiful natural quartz, turquoise, and tassels with a just a hint of shimmer, bring that summer look straight off the runway and into our summer lunches and evenings out! 
     Step up your glam with anything off the shoulder.  If you haven’t snagged yourself a fun billowy shoulder and décolleté bearing top, immediately add it to your to do list.  It’s all in the details with tribal prints, fringe, light summer linen or cotton fabrics.  Let the shoulder bare the load.
     Polishing your look can really be a summer breeze.  This is the season to relax, de-stress, and be playful with your wardrobe.  Attending parties, celebrations and beach cocktail hours should be effortless and done in style!  Keeping it simple and concentrating on just a few pieces will leave your hands free for sunscreen, cocktails, sandwiches and s’mores, real summer fun!
