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.

How To Dress Up Your Spring Tee

By jenclydestylist | April 9, 2013 | Segments | 2 Comments

Ok so I will make this short and sweet. The other day my cute new Sales Manager was rocking some way fun T-shirts. But her job is to always be in front of the showroom and helping new stylist find what they need, and so I said “I don’t care if you wear a T-shirt, just dress it up!” So she said “Well what do you mean?” So here we go…..girls who want to learn how to wear your fun, spring t-shirts that have been tucked away for a while in those winter days?? Well here you go! Some of the ways I love to dress up a T-shirt. Short and simple and now you can wear to the office and look like a fun, stylish, and successful employee.

Rules, How to dress it up:

Always pair with a skirt.When you want to have a definite go to, get a nice pencil skirt throw on a cardigan or blazer and your ready, hot, and look like something a bit more spicier for the office that day. No more old blouse with a boring expected, now you can turn heads and be more like yourself in your comfy tee.

Dress it up with a blouse. So I have been seeing this trend now for a couple of years…..but I must say I am a fan! I love how you can wear the t-shirt with the blouse underneath! All of a sudden you have now turned a t-shirt into an unexpected master piece for work or a fun lunch in meeting that you want to stand out for. I like to always pair mine with some fun wide leg pants either jeans or some trousers. Rule for me though…to keep it classy always stay with a dark wash wide leg if you go with jeans, and if it’s trouser your safe with anything. Color or pattern just wear with confidence.

Dress it up with Trousers: Go for some wide leg classic clean wide leg trousers or even pegged or rolled up with a sassy heel. Screams must have! Also you can wear with flats but if you do this make sure you wear some awesome accessories to go with.

Dress it up with the Jewels: 100% you want to dress up with accessories. Makes a boring old t-shirt make some serious sparkle. Dresses it right up enough said. Get yourself some fun statement piece necklaces. One of my faves….. SiraMara.com and colorbyamber.com. Either way your good to go. Now go shop!

Thanksgiving Style

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.
