Where to Find The Trendiest Fall Styles

October 23, 2019

The days of brick and mortar shopping are a thing of the past. As Amazon has personally taken over my shopping habits, I’ve found Trunk Club for Women to be my next favorite way to shop. I’ve always loved to play dress up, but never enjoyed the process of digging through racks to find what I want.

Off The Shoulder Weather — Shop This Look Here

How it works:

You visit Trunk Club’s website and fill out a profile. Once completed, the website will match you with a stylist who will select curated items from @Nordstrom that fit your needs.

I’ve been using my personal stylist @laurenhookham for a few years now and she hits the nail on the head every time! You can bypass working with someone who hasn’t been vetted and reach her directly by clicking on this link: www.trunkclub.com/mystylist/lhookham

I met Lauren after filling out my profile in their beautiful downtown location. @Trunkclubwomen has multiple locations throughout the Chicago area that make for a perfect setting to find the perfect outfit (I’ve even taken girlfriends there over some champagne for shopping parties)!

In our first meeting she came prepared with a few selected outfits she thought matched my initial profile. To be honest, I didn’t love all of her selections the first time around. Just like anything else, it takes time to develop a relationship and understanding about what the other person is looking for.

Over time, we have developed an understanding of what my style, size and needs are! Now when she sends a Trunk, I like majority of the selections she’s made. Since @TrunkClubwomen is in partnership with Nordstrom, you know what you’re getting is going to be good quality. I can’t always say for my Amazon purchases. What I love most about it is once you find someone who gets you, you can get trunks seasonally to keep you stylish without any of the effort of following trends and digging through racks of clothing.

If you are a Nordstrom card holder the $25 styling fee gets waived AND you get points for your purchases…what’s best is it shows up at your front door so need need to put in any extra effort! Could this seriously get any better?! Click here to join now: http://www.trunkclub.com/invite/293MAC

The #1 Beauty Gift I Get for All My Girlfriends

September 19, 2019

In hindsight, there is one beauty product that I have that comes through for me all 365 days of the year. It is also my MOST STOLEN beauty item by my friends, sisters, and cousins.

Blush and Highlight — Shop These Products Here

From day time looks to date nights, my Sephora Blush Palette has combinations for every look. This contour palette comes with SIX universally flattering shades including one highlighter just to polish off the look perfectly. My medium tan complexion does really well with these matte and shimmery finishes.

The Sephora 201 brush is perfect for applying this. I apply the blush with one side of the brush and the highlighter with the other angled side.

I promise you, this will be the last blush palette and blush brush you will ever buy!

Clear, well, EVERYTHING!

September 11, 2019

Let’s talk pumps….they are a year-round shoe after all! This Spring and Summer I saw clear pumps everywhere, of course I had to scoop up a pair of my own! Clear handbags, clear pumps, clear backpacks they are all the rage and sooooo cute! Be on the look out for my clear booties this winter!

In my latest @shopakira haul I scooped up a pair of my favorite Azeala Wang PVC pumps. Priced at under $50 these shoes can be worn both up and down.

I have styled them a multitude of different ways and have gotten so many compliments! I have to say though, not all shoes are created equal. As women, we all know the pain heels can cause on the balls of our feet. Azeala Wang beat us to the complaint. There is an extra cushion that gives the perfect support to keep you dancing all night without any of the pain!

Rina has been rocking this clear bag from Amazon for years, and its under $20! Check our Amazon store for more of our favorites.

#TrendWatch at the Jeffrey Fashion Cares Event

August 28, 2019

On Monday, August 26^th, 2019 Atlanta’s most philanthropic and fashionable affair, Jeffrey Fashion Cares, celebrated 27 stylish years. The annual event, which has become a mainstay on Atlanta’s social circuit, was founded by acclaimed retailer and arbiter of style, Jeffrey Kalinsky, who recently expanded his Atlanta store in Phipps Plaza and is now offering both men’s and women’s clothing, shoes, accessories and jewelry.

We enjoyed a cocktail reception and dynamic silent auction followed by a high-energy live auction where $100,000 was raised in under 15 minutes! The evening’s pièce de résistance, a runway show featuring Kalinsky’s style selections from high-end designer looks from Celine, Christian Dior, Givenchy, Dries Van Noten, Sacai, Saint Laurent Paris, Balenciaga, Valentino, Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik. The 2019 event was held at Phipps Plaza and benefits the Susan G. Komen Greater Atlanta, the Atlanta AIDS Fund (AAF), and the Medical University of South Carolina.

This sold out event was beautifully executed with all of the who’s who of Atlanta, including Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms.

There were so many stylish Fall fashion previews that were stunning on the runway, but four trends stood out.

Fun Thigh High Boots

Fringe, fur, and animal print boots that make an outfit super playful were definitely and inspiration for #FallFashion.

Neon Colors

Surprisingly, the show featured many bright and fun colors including neons.

Sequin

As expected metallic and sequin looks will be making a comeback as we head towards the holidays.

Coats that were belted, worn as capes, long and short were featured in this years show. Keep your layers light and easy with one of these trendy trenches.

I would like to extend a special thanks to Caren West Public Relations for keeping the Chicks on her radar and having us at this event. We really enjoyed attending and covering this event!
