Fashion in the O.C.

Filed under Wedding

Hello my little fashionistas.  Sorry I haven’t been around the last few days, but my computer no worky.  It seems to be all better now (keep your fingers crossed).

I was walking around the Irvine Spectrum last night (a popular hangout here in the O.C.) and I saw this adorable bubble hem dress in the window at the bebe store.

The bebe site recommends you wear it with these super high heel platform gladiator sandals.

Is Fashion Fading?

May 10, 2008 by admin  
Filed under Wedding

The colorfade look is in style right now, with either two colors fading into each other, or gradational tones of one color fading in and out of darker to lighter shades.  Here are two examples:

1. Carmen Marc Valvo Collection Ombre Chiffon Halter Cocktail Dress (This white and gray designer dress from Bloomingdale’s is currently around $600.)

2. Ombre Georgette Tank Dress (A little more affordable at just under $80 from MetroStyle.  FYI, tiered ruffles and transparent overlays are also in style right now, both of which can be seen on this dress.)

Both Bloomingdale’s and MetroStyle ship to the United States and its territories.
