You don't have to go to a resort to wear RESORT







Resort collections usually debut in stores around mid November and there couldn't be a better time!! This is about the time of year that us fashionistas get a little restless. We are just a little tired of the trends of the season and we are ready for something to spark us up again! We want to see something new, something fresh! This is where resort collections come in to fill that emptiness we are feeling. Soon we will be seeing all of those hot fall trends on the sale rack and they for some reason, don't look as pretty anymore. (Unless you know how to piece them to make them fresh and new again!) To me resort wear no longer is completely for all those lucky ladies who go on cruises and trips to tropical climates at this time of year. Resort to me is all about the classics coming true again. As much as I love a good trend, to me the classics are where it's at. And with a trend kind of thrown into the mix every now and then, you will keep the classics looking new. As you view the resort photos from Gucci that I have posted you will see what I mean. (You can view more from the Gucci Resort 2010 collection on my Laura's Style Facebook fan page along with other photos from other designers resort collections:-) The details in the resort collections are fabulous and the details are the main attraction. I am especially loving the pleated Burberry trench that I have pictured here in pink. (it also comes in black) GORGEOUS!

Fashion Is For Models. STYLE Is For Real Women.

The fashion world has always favored skinny models to show off the latest trends. But it's the real women who actually buy them. Why does this make sense? Well I guess when it comes right down to the brutal truth, people buy things that look good. And lets face it, clothes look better when they are smaller. It's kind of like when I go into a store to try on shoes and the one on display that I am attracted to is a size 6 or 7 and then the sales clerk brings out my size (9 or 9/2) and I'm like "That's not the same shoe, is it? The one on display looks different!" The clerk tells me that it is in fact the same shoe. Suddenly, I don't want to try it on anymore. So, I just want to tell all you ladies out there who are not a size 4 in a dress that I get it. But we can't let it bother us.  Fashion is everywhere and marketing is everywhere and the majority of it is big beautiful pictures of skinny people. Keep in mind, models in magazines have the b...

FALL for Flowers!

{Leifsdottir Alegrias tiered floral skirt} Totally unpredictable and completely cool. Flowers for fall are exactly what you need to take your "I miss summertime" blues away. There are no rules in fashion. It's just about achieving a look that is your best and that you feel good in. Who says plaid is the only print you can wear in the fall? Now, don't get me wrong. Plaid is one of my favorite patterns. So maybe we can mix them together! {See below} Flower patterns are fun and so glamorous during any season. Just make your floral skirts a little more fall like by wearing a pair of colorful tights! Can you say FLOWER POWER?! And we are going to need some major FLOWER POWER especially when the temperature begins to drastically drop. {Christopher Kane ~ garden leather mini skirt} {Carolina Herrera}

The Necessary Black T-Shirt

I have to admit, I have not been getting dressed up much these days. I think it has something to do with just wanted to be comfortable. I have been sewing a ton of masks at The Maine Square   and it just feels better to not be confined in my clothing as I am cutting fabric and sewing. However, I do have to go out of the studio occasionally. Mostly it's to the mailbox, but sometimes it's to get more supplies and of course food. I don't mean to sound pretentious or anything, but I do think about how I look even when going out to do these quick errands. It makes me feel good to look half decent! Lately I have been opting for a simple black tee shirt and a pair of semi faded jeans. All I need to do it pop on a camel colored blazer and some ballet flats and I am good to go! Oh yeah, and I ALWAYS wear a mask when entering a public facility these days. I think it's just common courtesy with all that is going on with the corona virus.  Here are some of my all-time favori...
