That juicy fruit color is just what we need to add extra style for summer, so on second thought, I’m sold. $50.

It is available up to size 28.

What Do We Think About This Tunic?

Now, as adults, St. Patrick’s Day is all about going out to drink some Irish alcoholic beverages, while wearing green and saying you’re Irish or pretending to be Irish (or saying you’re 1/18th Irish)… all while wearing green.

If you don’t want to wear one of those tacky “Kiss me I’m Irish!” t-shirts from Old Navy, then what in the world are you going to wear on that fabulous day of the Irish? While it is probably too late to order it this year, I think this Roberto Cavalli Printed Chiffon Tunic would be a great option.

It is a watercolor print silk which makes it look like a piece of art (all good pieces of fashion should be!) The boat neck style shows of shoulders, so if you are trying to give the First Lady a run for her money in the arm department, this may be a good blouse for you. It is longest at the hips and is $1,750.

St. Patrick’s Day in Style

Looking for something that meets your budget requirements and that’s really high on style? I’m going to admit that I was surprised to see this pick at Lane Bryant, mostly because it was particularly gorgeous and (in my head) worth three times as much! That’s not so bad, is it?

Pleats give this tunic a new shape that disguises lumps and bumps without the usual “I’m hiding under a tent” look, and the puff sleeves are generous enough to actually make your arms look smaller. It’s $34.99, on sale! Visit Lane Bryant to pick one up.

Lane Bryant Sale Pick: Pleated Tunic

I’m Mom, sure, but I’d also like to be a confident,  attractive, (sexy) woman, as well.

Then, I read about Julie, The Snarkstress’s Challenge, clicked through a few of her posts, found this photo of Jennie Garth, and that’s when I got downright enthusiastic about the whole thing.  

I felt that this top was most like Jennie’s ………

Janelle Silky Tunic, in Hunter Green

I decided that I need more than one top if I’m truly going to be updating, so just for the heck of it, I’m going to get this one, too…………..

Retro Floral Tunic

And just because I’m feeling like treating myself extra special, I’m going to get some of this………..

KenzoAmour Shower Honey

The ingredients include……………

Gentle Rice

A major food staple for much of the world’s population, rice is the second most consumed cereal grain. Rice has many health benefits; it is an antioxidant, helps to lower cholesterol and assists in balancing blood sugar levels

Musk

Musk has been an essential ingredient in perfumery since ancient times. Its capability to enhance a fragrance comes from its ability to adopt the fixative qualities of a natural scent. Musk is a linear, powdery note

Frangipani Blossom

Also known as Plumeria, Frangipani Blossom has become common in all tropical areas of the world. ‘Frangipani’ comes from the name of an Italian noble family that created a perfume from the flower. In many Pacific islands, frangipani blossoms are used to make leis. In modern Polynesian culture, the way you wear a frangipani blossom indicates your relationship status

I tried the KenzoAmour as part of a fragrance review awhile ago and I’m hooked on it now. It’s a spicy, woody, scent. Very sexy.  If you are looking to update your fragrance collection, I suggest you pick some up, or better yet, it’s the holiday season – put it on your wish list.
