Fashion Sticky Notes … actual hideous things I see people wearing, and how to remedy the problems they present

+Yoga pants that look like yoga pants tucked into riding boots pretending to be pants. IF THEY LOOK LIKE YOGA PANTS, you're not fooling anyone. Dead giveaways: piping across the butt, down the leg, logos, and colored waistbands if exposed. Do everyone a favor and just find plain, thick yoga pants to pretend are pants. (AND I do this, so I'm not complaining about the trend itself, just the execution)

+Shorts at night. I've been over how I personally feel this is inappropriate at all times, but now it's fall and you have absolutely no excuse for wearing shorts at night.

+Skinny belts slapped onto a dress—or worse, a shirt—because a magazine told you so. Really? Do you wear crazy makeup looks straight off the runway too? Make sure the belt adds something to your outfit AND your figure. If your waist isn't your skinniest feature, why would you highlight it???
Things I like … and you should too, because I knew about jellies shoes way before they were cool

*navy + orange
*southwestern-style accents in scarves or socks
*leggings + tall socks + boots
*short-sleeve hoodies or coats (only in fall can you get away with this)
*funky french manis like glitter or neons
*neon accents
*boxy bags
*cord, rope, or otherwise raw material bracelets

Stylin’ Thursdays: Grand Opening

Another Thursday, another happy hour-boutique-shopping affair. A new jewelry and accessory store is coming to the chic Second Street shopping district, and Austin Monthly hosts its grand opening. Here are the details:

Beyond Tradition and Austin Monthly invite you to a grand opening!

Toast to our arrival in the fashionable 2nd Street District with complimentary wine and appetizers. In addition, a Catherine Nicole Trunk Show features the jewelry of one of eight up-and-coming designers named by Women’s Wear Daily.

During the event, browse our collection of unique designer jewelry

and stunning handbags…just in time for Mother’s Day!

The Catherine Nicole Trunk Show will be featured through Saturday.

Lunch-In every Friday 11-1pm

Specializing in one-of-a-kind wearable art. Located in the fashionable 2nd Street District, we offer an eclectic collection of unique designer jewelry and accessories.

Does anyone know what a “Lunch-In” means?!

Anyway, I’d check this out if I didn’t have my Austin Parks & Rec league basketball game–it’s always good to be one of the first to know about a new shop in town!
