Different ways to wear your Summer Maxi Dress

By jenclydestylist | April 30, 2013 | Segments | No comments

It’s beginning to feel like summer….so what does that mean?? Maxi dresses calling our names! I love a good maxi through out summer time. They bring such a fun easy way to look stylish. Best part you can dress them up or down so this is something you want to pack for those summer Vacations because you can wear them many different ways. So go get some easy fun dresses and your all set. One of my most favorite places to shop for Maxi dresses is City Creek….they have to much to offer right now. Maxi heaven.

3 DIFFERENT WAYS TO ROCK YOUR MAXI THIS SPRING.

1. Dress it down: Throw a T shirt on top to make it look like your own creation. I love this, get creative. Use a baggy t shirt not a tight one! If you use tight it just won’t look right and bulge at the bottom. Throw on some tennis shoes and your super funky, fun, and ready for that summer concert.

Skirt from Downeastbasics.com

Shoes from Forever 21

2. Dress it up: Dress it up with some heels or wedges are my fave. Throw up some bold, gold, jewelry and a blazer or collared shirt and next thing you know your ready for a hot date or a day at the office. Love this for a office pick to night. Where with blazer to office take off for dinner and drinks later that night. All set and classic and clean.

3. Layer it up: Sounds weird for summer? Well I love to take a longer t shirt and layer it or take a way oversized cape and have it flowing with the dress itself. This is a statement that can be more visually known as bo ho and I can’t get enough of it. This is where you throw on some sandals big hat and call it a day. You have got your shopping summer outfit with lunch on the patio with some friends. A maxi has never looked so good.

Dress is from Shabby Apple.

Cape is from Sheinside.com

Remember a Maxi dress is a great investment for summer time. If you feel like your too short to wear one?? Well your not!! Go for some major wedges or heels to add height or tie up in a knot on the side at the bottom of the dress and your ready to go. Maxi’s are made for all of us, and all body shapes. For more photos of how to wear these go follow me on facebook under jenclydstylist or my favorite right now instagram under jenstyles. Happy shopping.

Spring Swimwear Report

By jenclydestylist | February 19, 2013 | Segments | No comments

Well it’s that time where some of us love….and some of us moms hate! I think Ohhh gosh, now I have to get tan, shave my legs everyday, and workout! Yes I know I should be doing this year round but…well….I am not! So some of us love it because you have been working out and getting tan and your ready for some cute swimwear to go with your hot vibe. So you’re in luck! Many different companies have been rocking the vintage vibe which is my fave and then the sporty one along with the hot colored bikinis. So what ever you’re wanting to rock this summer I think you will be very happy with some of my top picks for swimwear this season. What to buy? Here are my top faves.

Vintage Vibe:

This suit I love from DownEast. Vintage Vibe and great price. Fits well and great for bigger chested women with that under wire to help hold up that area and not look droopy affect and help out those backs! Love the print and piping. Go here to buy!

This one piece beauty takes Vintage to a next level. Modern vintage style is what I like to call it. I love the side tie and the stripes of course and this suit is so well made that the fabric holds you in so you look 10 pounds thinner. This is one you want to have this summer. Albion swimwear had many of choices and many more coming out March 1st 2013 with their whole new swimwear styles. You have to stay up with this company because their fits and styles are ones you don’t want to miss. Go here to shop!

Anthropologie keeps vintage classy, timeless, sleek, slimming, and just a plain must have! For moms like me I love it because black is my slimming save and tucks in tummies, and covers that it spot on your hips and bum area! This is a simple clean beautiful suit all must have for this season. Pricer but worth it for a good fit and a good hold of our booty. Buy here online!

Sporty:

Ok I am in love with these boy shorts and tankini! I just wore mine in Hawaii last week the whole time. This suit is great for paddle boarding and surfing! This is cute too, to rock just walking down the board walk with a cute tank for a walk or a skateboard ride. Basically these go and move everywhere with you without any bum cheek flying out where not wanted! So when on the go this Alibon suit will change your world. Buy here online! Comes in red too!

When you think sporty as a mom I always think…What can I wear chasing after my 5-year-old and look clean sporty and put together? Or how can I party with the 13-year-old down the water slide without embarrassing him with my bikini being on top of my head instead of where it should be? Go with the sporty one piece your still cute and you can be comfy as well. Nothing screams cute more than comfortable in your own skin and with this fit and classic coloring. Go buy here at DownEast.

Nothing screams sporty more than Roxy Swimwear. They just get it right. They know how to use colors and patterns in a tom girl type of way …..not too girly but girly enough. Love this backless. Check it out and buy it here online.

Hot Bikinis:

This fringe number is such a must have!! I love fringe and when you go with a two piece this year this has to be up on your list. Love the vibe and love how it comes in many different colors from free people! Go buy here.

I heart tribal prints and I love this suit that has just that! I love this top with a cool maxi skirt too. Easy to turn from bathing suit to beach top. This little number is easy, sweet, and trend driven. Click here to see it!

So this year make sure you use these swim buying tips:

Bigger chest:cup top, tie around the neck or shoulders, stay way from strap less without a cup

Smaller chested: One shoulder strap, sporty tankini, x back, stay away from cups

Bigger hips: Go with a swim skirt, vintage one piece with longer sides, full back, one piece helps. Stay away from string sides that push out unwanted areas

Smaller hips: Anything usually looks great on your body! But side ties look fab, high-waisted looks super cute, and anything that has a great tight fit.

Bigger Tummy: One piece, Tankini, blouses tankini

What ever you wear …..just have fun and wear it with confidence. Later today my show on swimwear featuring Alibon will be posted here for you to watch live! Now go Pin happy! Pin what you love.

Also don’t miss this amazing water proof Jewelry line that incases elements around the world in all their jewelry and each piece tells a story and you carry around the story in between two layers on eco friendly resin! I am in love with the new spring line that goes perfect with each swimsuit and I just wore a bunch on my trip to hawaii. It’s their new Vibrant line and you can swim in it, and you can hike in it, and you can live in it. This is made to go where ever you go! Have to have with all your swimwear this spring and summer and all your vacations! Best stuff ever! Go shop now at www.colorbyamber.com Check them out you will be amazed.

Sunday Style

Ok this week it’s all about the easy non layered look, which I know seems so simple for me who loves so much different colors and layers but today I fell in love with this coral dress from DownEast and so I bought it in two different colors, but the coral being my top fave. I sometimes just need simple in my life but of course I had to add some color on the belt and then a color that didn’t really match in a shoe , but it did match if that makes sense So happy Sunday Style everyone and hopefully you can enjoy the sun where ever you may be. It may be freezing here but at least today we had some sun and blue sky’s. Hugs!

Dress: DownEast

Thanksgiving Style

By jenclydestylist | November 20, 2012 | Segments | No comments

Thanksgiving Style

Well the time has come again where you get to pack up and go to grandmas house. You are going to see your loved ones and many more. You want to show your best side on this special day and look amazing but at the same time be comfy right? We want our looks to be comfortable enough to take part in a impromptu game of touch football and curl up for an afternoon post pumpkin pie nap. Also we want to be able to eat that pie without feeling like we can’t breath in tight pants. So I have some tips on what to rock and stay cute and comfy this thanksgiving dinner.

Keep your look simple and family casual, while subtly highlighting a signature fall trend. Go for some cute comfy jeans or jeggings and a patterned sweater mix. That way your sweater is the one to be seen at the table and pick a color that highlights your face.
Go for a long maxi skirt or dress. I love this because it’s a bit more dressed up but at the same time you can lay down and still be covered you can fold your legs and play a game of cards on the floor and still be covered but it still will impress with style.
Pick a statement jewelry piece. I love this because you can dress up a t shirt and jeans with a statement piece that I am sure the whole table will be talking about.
Leggings are your bff. I love a long sweater look with leggings. That waist band will be able to stretch and you will be able to feel comfy no matter what. I always wear a legging on thanksgiving and they have never failed me yet.
Last but most important both fashionable and family and facebook approved. You know your family and grandma will be there telling you about what you should and should not be doing and you don’t want her to start talking about how short your skirt is at the thanksgiving dinner table. Dress like a lady.

For photos and information on my ABC4 show today It will be posted with pics later this afternoon after the show airs. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Enjoy your style and comfort.

How to wear the most stylish hats this season

HOW TO WEAR THE MOST STYLISH HATS THIS SEASON

The hat is becoming a little more than just a practical item, it is a must have stylish, valuable fashion accessory which can either complete your look or help you stand out. For me it’s not only about standing out…it’s about combining warmth and style to make a amazing winter outfit. Some of my faves this season and advice on how and where to wear these styles.

Fur Hats: These are one of my top faves. I love this more in the neutral colors like real fur would look. I am not a lover of having real fur but I am not a hater of you wearing it either. I feel that it’s a personal choice like voting. We don’t judge you. So if you choose to wear the fur it’s super easy to wear. It’s more of a throw on and go type hat. They come in all sorts of shapes and styles but really this will not only keep you warm it will go with a dressed up outfit or dressed down. It’s like the white t shirt in your closet. Have fun with this one.

Cloche Hats: I love this because it’s a vintage inspired style of hat from the 1920s that bring a lovely sense of fashion with them. When you put these on your instantly updated with a fashion forward amazing look that is instant timeless and chic. Where to wear these…I love them for a work type style, or night out on the town outing. They give more of that dress up feel so it’s great to wear them this way.

Fedora hats

Fedora hats are probably the most versatile hats ever invented. First designed for men in the 19th century, now fedoras are unisex and can be worn with everything. They give that new trend of men’s wear looks a instant sex appeal. I love these because you look smart and stylish. One of my fave and comes in many different colors and styles but one of my fave just the black basic so classy and clean looking. Love this look dressed up or down either way this one you can rock at anytime of you day.

Slouched beanie: This is your slouched everyday hat that you want to wear out sledding with the kids and want to look cute. This is not one you want to wear going for a night out but more so to do your shopping in. When your out and about this is your number one hat that saves us from a bad hair day to a cold face! This one is a must have in many different types and colors. Cheaper and furry and sometimes comes with earflaps to add that extra warmth. Rock with your snow bunny outfits to your jeans.

Click on photos to go to the store to buy

Turbans: One that is a bit more edgy but I love it. Super fun and funky and keeps your head warm as well as looking super stylish! This hat is a great for a relaxed look and easy going day. Helps all of us who have bangs and don’t want to do them but not too much where you can’t wear it all day. This is one of my fave looks and you all need one.

Stay warm, Stay Stylish, and go buy some new hats. They are the perfect gift.

DIY Accessories Wall

By jenclydestylist | October 31, 2012 | Uncategorized | 1 Comment

HAPPY HALLOWEEN BE SAFE…..

Ok as you all know I was a Buyer for 5 years and one of the things I love the most was being able to pick out my deliveries and hang them up on a rod and was able to see how everything went together for merchandising and colors and so many other reasons. As a stylist I have to put many outfits together each day either for clients, me. and or shows. So I missed the bar where I can hang and see how things look and be prepared for the day. So I decided to just put a accessory wall in my room….hubby wasn’t to thrilled but loved me enough to let me keep it for now…until we remodel our room of course! But then I want to put it in my closet. You all need this makes planning wardrobe that much easier. Here are the pics….hopefully you can come up with how you would want to lay it out.

Ok so I went simple just used a curtian rod from any store like target and hung it up. Then all around just used push pins to hang up necklaces. I used Ikea sticks to push in push pins and hang hats and more necklaces off of that. Just nailed it up. Then shelf. I am wanting to add more but here is a start so get some hooks and what ever you want and make your fashion become art.

THIS IS SO TOTALLY RANDOM PIC BUT I HAD TO SHARE IT TODAY. THIS IS WHAT I LOOK AT EVERY TIME I PULL IN AND OUT OF MY GARAGE. MY TWO BUDDIES WILLOW MY DOG AND RALPH MY CAT. SO CUTE THEY WATCH ME LEAVE AND COME HOME. RANDOM I KNOW BUT HAD TO SHARE
