Summer Look :)

I decided to put together a simple, hot, urban look. I thought "less is more", "summer chic" "b-girl" and all of these different things came to mind. I like to call this look that I put together Urban Chic. I hope you love it as well.

1. 5-Ring LOVE Theme Set - this item is on the list because it is cute, current and a perfect summer item, as well.

5-Rings




2. Acid Wash, Distressed, Boyfriend Jeans. - Imagine your 3 favorite things combined...it's like heaven, isn't it? That's how I feel about these jeans. They are BOYFRIEND Jeans (YES), they are Distressed (YES) and they are Acid Washed (YES). Those are my three favorite things in jeans, combined. These jeans are sexy, effortless and everything you need.

3. Statement Hoops. - We all need our pair of Hoops, that just complete us. And these are mine. 

HOOPS



4. Layered Bracelet Have you ever wanted the "layered" look but lost pieces of the layered item? Me too. So, this bracelet is a god-send. It has the look of several bracelets but the decency to be only one piece.

5. Cute Crop Top. What summer look is complete without showing a little skin, and I do mean just a litt.e? Crop



6. Finally, to finish off the look. A simple, clean, summer fresh nail color. Since the ring set will draw attention to the hand area, so to top off the look, a yellow nail will be perfect. Nail Polish

Be a BOSS

There was once a time where only men were considered to be the BOSS, in the home, in the workplace and so on... In recent years, women have made strides at becoming self-sufficient and have gone beyond that. We have women bosses in every arena: the home, the workplace and so on. Women flaunt this status that was once not afforded to them and WE do it well. If you listen to female rap, you'll hear Lola Monroe, Trina, Lil' Kim and more bragging about their BOSS status; even placing the word "BOSS" in the title of their songs. With that being said, the title 'BOSS" has found it's place in the urban fashion community; what better way to show you are a BOSS than to wear it on your ears, your neck, your shirt and so on? We proudly carry BOSS items, that go well with our sexy, chic urban apparel. Check it out for yourself.


Maybe a sexy club dress: With a BOSS Necklace or Necklace/Earring Set

Whatever your preference, we have you covered, get suited up, wear it proud and show the world that you are a FEMALE BOSS.

Beyonce: Style...The Evolution.

Some praise Beyonce for her fashion sense, others are quick to remind them of her less than fashionable moments, early in her career, at any rate, Beyonce has primed herself to be a trendsetter and one to watch for style. Now, while early Destiny's Child outfits may be less than fashionable, there are a few things you have to take into account- 1. It was 10 or more years ago 2. That was the style then 3. They stood out in terms of being fashionable cohesive. They had to have some sort of clout to get customized gowns designed for them by Versace for the 2001 Grammys, right? Let's take a quick trip down memory lane at Beyonce's evolving fashions from past to present. 

We will give you 3 of her not so good looks and 3 of her best. 



Here are 3 of her best.



We also have some Beyonce inspired items that you may be interested in.

Fashion Icon: Zoe Kravitz

Lenny's daughter, Denise Huxtables daughter, that chick that Drake dates are just a few of the things you may hear when someone mentions, Zoe Kravitz but I assure you there is so much more to her. She is a well-versed and well accomplished actress, aspiring musician and is taking the fashion industry by storm, one outfit at a time. Since 2009-2010, she has been on the forefront of the fashion scene as a trendsetter and fashion icon. The amazing thing about Zoe is that she is not always head to toe in designer clothing, she is an avid shopper of Thrift stores and Flea Markets. In an era where name-dropping and labels is "the thing" to do, Zoe goes against the grain. Her ensembles range from uptown to flower child and she never looks like she's trying too hard.; she is the one person who could look good in anything. She is proof, that it's not what you spend but how you rock it. Whether you see her on the blogs, on the movie screen, on the cover of a magazine or rummaging through the racks at your local thrift store, one thing you won't forget is her flawless fashions and unique style.

Summer Beauty Tips

Cute sandals, short-shorts and bronzed skin are just a few of the things that make summer a universal favorite season. There are so many festivities in the summer, that you need to look and feel your best for. We have compiled a list of simple and effective tips to look and feel your best this summer. 

Skin care: You should always take great care of your skin but since more skin is shown in the summer, it is essential to take great care of it. The obvious skin tip for summer is SPF. There is also a few things that you can do to give you a little boost in that department. 

1. Baby oil after you shower. Many people with beautiful, smooth skin are no strangers to baby oil. A little tip that I have discovered that has not only given me great skin but also yield noticeable results is using baby oil in the shower. I first use a creamy body wash (Olay and Dove are my favorites) and then after I am done, I apply baby oil to damp skin and allow myself to air dry. It is a bit time consuming but the results speak for themselves. 



Another great skin tip is the brown sugar/lemon scrub. This is great for exfoliating the dead skin and giving you a head to toe glow.  Once a week mix 1 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice to 1 1/2 cups of brown sugar and exfoliate your entire body. It not only gives you a young, fresh face but also makes your legs look great for those short shorts. 

Another obvious but essential tip is drinking plenty of water. Naturally Alkaline Spring Water is the best for keeping you hydrated inside and out. 

These tips will keep you looking healthy and feeling it also. Another tip for summer is to always have your toes and nails painted. Check out great, bold summer colors, available here. Nail Polish
