Rhapsodic Summer Fashion

During my blogging research I came across the website Fashion Traffic and I am so thrilled that I found it! They are a source for fashion bloggers to utilize for making those blogging dolla's! I signed up and I'm super excited to start using this for earnings later on down the road.

While searching about their site, looking at different online shops you can post from to your blog to earn a small portion of the cost of any skirt, dress, pants, bag, accessories, etc. on a certain website, I came across a website called ASOS. {Instant love} 

They have a tool where you can shop their entire website, other websites, and create your own look from all categories of the shopping world! AMAZING! So here is one look I created, and it is so fun to look through all of the items they have on their site. I found this picture of the woman in the white lace skirt and that became my inspiration for the whole outfit. I went with turquoise accessories and brown and pink to go with the skirt. I can picture this outfit for a summer concert (minus the heels). You can sign up and create your own looks here!

Get the look!

Coral, Floral

The weather has been so gorgeous lately! It calls for sun dresses, sandals, espadrilles and pomegranate mojitos.

I recently went to H&M in Denver and their store is beyond amazing. I found the cutest sun dress, in coral of course, with a white floral detail. So cute!

My mom knows that I've been obsessing over this color lately too. She and my dad went to Hawaii a few weeks ago and she came back with a few gifts for me! She came back with a Roxy dress with coral flowers on it, as well as a coral dress by Elan that you can wear in multiple ways, you can even wear it as a skirt. Searching online at the recent color trends of the summer, a lot of designers have been using this color on the runway too!

Royal From Head to Toe

The recent Royal Wedding has been the talk of the town, or more like the talk of the world. Kate Middleton took my breath away in her Alexander McQueen wedding gown.

Sarah Burton and Kate created this timeless design featuring a hand-cut French and English Chantilly lace on the skirt and bodice.  The silhouette of the skirt was inspired by an open flower design, a stunning shade of ivory. Narrow at the waist and some padding at the hips, this dress was an example of Alexander McQueen's excellence. 

Kate's veil was my favorite, it was beautifully silk lined with hand embroidered flowers. 
Her train was 9 feet long and draped over Alexander McQueen shoes, which Kate took her first royal steps in. I have never seen something so beautifully crafted, it was straight out of a fairy tale!

The royal wedding was truly a fairytale. I think that every girl in the entire world wishes they could be a princess, Kate Middleton is one lucky girl! 

While I was amazed with her beautiful gown, I did not expect to see the fashionable other royals and guests! They had the most unique hats and outfits, who knew they were so fashionable? Designer, Phillip Tracy's nude-toned hats were worn most at the event. Almost all guests wore some nude-toned outfit to kick off the summer season, beautifully and tastefully of course.

Until next time, I'm finding myself a hat for the summer!
