“Knit and sweater dresses are always in demand. For one, they’re super easy to dress up and down. They look totally chic on their own. Add a shirt on top and tie the ends at the waist. Try a polished blazer for a boss lady look. It’s incredibly versatile and a favorite to take on vacation. My customers have been requesting that I send any new knit dresses as they arrive.”
“Purple hues seem to be rivaling the Barbie Pink trend. In fact, Pantone has predicted that purple, Very Peri is the star color of the year! Lately, purple, violet, lavender, cobalt, and orchid shades have been in almost every designer collection. I’ve been showing clients how to wear this regal color in a monochromatic way. For many, just a touch of ultraviolet in smaller doses like in accessories goes a long way.”
“There’s no denying that a great-fitting suit can make you feel like you’re able to conquer anything! Lately, I’ve noticed my clients opting for pretty power suits to wear to events in place of a dress! For this look to be more festive and less office-like, try a silky deep draped bodysuit or bralette under the jacket. Add a statement brooch on the lapel or a belt over the blazer for added glam and style.”
I’ve been enamored with a good western boot for years but when the trend got the ‘Chanel Haute Couture’ stamp of approval in their most recent runway show, it’s been an easy sell! My clients have asked for styles that nod to the cowboy, but are not overly western.”
