Bold Stripes for Spring

Reds
ask a STYLIST With Emily Current and Meritt Elliott The stripes trend is everywhere. How can I get the look? Bold stripes can be intimidating—after all, no one wants to look like an umpire or a circus tent—but with some smart styling, they can be flattering, we promise. Here are our three favorite ways to wear this spring trend without fear! Tip #1: Mix With Abandon Embrace your inner '60s starlet and try a striking mix ofbigger, horizontal stripes on your top andsmaller, vertical stripes on your lower half. While there are lots of bright colors on the market, when you're starting out, stick toblack or navy. Also, it's smart to keep the accessories to a minimum and your shoes simple, chic and as comfortable as the best shoes for standing on concrete all…

Can I Kick It?

Reds
I'm far from a sneakerhead but I can appreciate some cool kicks! Especially when they're unique, colorful & flirty, like these: When it comes to truly stylish, comfortable footwear, sneakers are the new ballet flats. Isabel Marant first introduced her now-ubiquitous sneaker wedges in 2010, which quickly became the go-to shoe for fashion’s elite, including top editors, models, and celebrities like Beyonce, who rocked a pair in her “Love On Top” music video. Since then, the humble sneaker’s been reinvented in lively colors and punchy prints, elevating them to must-have status for any cool girl. In fact, a number of trendsetters—Rihanna, Jessica Alba, and Chloe Moretz, to name a few—are wearing sneakers to add a fresh, contemporary flair to their looks.

Watercolor’s not just for Paper!

Reds
In Clueless, when Cher dubs popular girl Amber a “Monet,” it’s because she appears attractive from afar but her looks don't quite match up upon closer inspection. Thankfully, that’s not the case with these artistic watercolor pieces, which look perfectly stylish whether seen from a distance or not! This season, it seems as if everything from silky button-downs to skinny jeans are drenched in the dreamy, pastel motifs, and the look couldn’t be more appropriate for spring. At turns the trend is chic and youthful, like Ashley Madekwe’s Etro Butterfly Print Dress ($1998, 310.248.2855) at the Rodeo Drive Walk of Style event in Beverly Hills last December. The Revenge star’s frock stands out, thanks to the brushstroke butterfly print that pops against the white mini dress. At other times, watercolors feel more romantic and feminine,…

Playful or Sultry for Valentine’s Day?

Reds
  What should I wear on a Valentine's Day date? Valentine's Day is one of our favorite times of year because not only is it an excuse to be silly and romantic with our loved ones, but we also love the explosion of pink, red, and overt girliness on the market. February 14th is the perfect excuse to buy those conversation hearts, write heartfelt cards, and indulge your ultra-sweet fashion alter ego. Tip #1: Embrace anything lingerie or boudoir-inspired. Gorgeous lace details, whether it's on a simple cap sleeve, shift dress, pretty pumps, or handbag, will make you feel instantly feminine and flirtatious. We're partial to the timelessness of white lace, but we also love it in neon pink for those of you who are feeling playful, or black for a subtly sultry result. Tip #2: Wear your heart on your sleeve. Now is…
