What To Wear Wednesday: BravoBravo! 2013 Edition

What’s black and white and glamorous all over?
–
And no, it’s not a zebra in Chanel. It’s you, if you’re planning to attend BravoBravo! 2013 on Friday, June 7th at the Detroit Opera House. Since it’s inception in 1999, the annual DOH’s fundraiser for the arts is touted as Detroit’s most sophisticated party of the year.  Enlisting local businesses – restaurants, artists, musicians – to showcase at the gala, will be a fabulous feast for the mouth, eyes and ears, all in the name of a worthy cause.
–
This year’s theme is Black and White: Elegance and Sophistication. In regards to dress code, think cocktail dresses and evening wear in the aforementioned color theme. Opt for a monochromatic look in your preferred hue or make a stunning appearance in a bold, black and white pattern print. To add extra oomph to your glamourous ensemble, accessories are key – think bling and metallic hardware (the shinier the better). Stud adornments are HUGE this season, so sporting a sleek studded heel or studded clutch will catapult your look to runway chic tenfold. But, if you’re one who LOVES primary colors, plan on expressing it via statement jewelry and if need be, shoes and handbags. Personally, for a more cohesive look to obey the theme, try to save the color burst for jewelry.

What To Wear Wednesday: Tribal Weekend Warrior Chic

Summer is fastidiously approaching and so is my desire to break out my warmest weather wardrobe – regardless of Michigan’s fickle climate. What better way to welcome deliciously balmy, sunny days than with energetic, vibrant tribal prints?
–
I’m drawn to this Topshop tribal print dress because of its stunning geometric pattern and bright, bold citrus hues. It looks fabulous either styled elegantly and edgy (L to R).
–
To make it elegant yet trendy, pair with a sleek white jacket and strappy sandals or heels. If possible – as an extra style bonus – try to find pieces with pops of color(s) of the main item being showcased (i.e.- lapel trim, clutch, shoes). By doing so, it instantly sophisticates the look and makes it more polished. This outfit is perfect for daytime  – luncheons, bridal showers, weddings- and evening events – date nights, cocktails with the ladies, soirees.
–
If edgy is up your alley, metal hardware adornments are key (i.e. – chain purse strap, studs on shoes, zippers, layered necklace).  Opt for boxier shapes and darker shades for the ultimate bad-ass chic style. This style is also versatile for day and night – lunch dates, concerts, painting the town black!
–
Whichever style is clever, summon in summer with a stylish dance of global graphics!

What To Wear Wednesday: Punk Rock Chic

The worlds of punk rock chic and Hollywood glamour collided on the red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute Gala in New York City on May 6, 2013. Starlets embraced the culture clash by hybridizing metal spikes and studs with luxurious gowns.
–
For “What To Wear Wednesday,” I’ve decided to honor this year’s theme, “PUNK: Chaos to Couture.” You can’t get any more punk rock chic than red leather pants – the side zips scream rocker cool!
–
The look on the left is more on the glam side while the look on the right is edgier.  The key to keeping it glam is through feminine adornments and details. A sleek stiletto will always swank up an outfit. Along with delicate jewelry pieces and light, sheer materials. To achieve an edgier look, think the opposite of the aforementioned. Opt for  heavier materials, chunky adornments and masculine details.
–
Regardless of style, don’t forget to incorporate the S trilogy: skulls, studs and spikes- quintessential punk rock chic!

What To Wear Wednesday: Cobalt Blue Is the New Black

I’ve decided that cobalt blue is the new black for spring. The chicest way to sport this trend is in the IRO ‘Ashville’ Blue Leather Jacket. I am absolutely infatuated with this bright, bold jewel-toned blue beauty!  My favorite facet of this supple leather find is the adjustable side buckles that let you refashion the fit to your liking.
–
It looks flawless and uber chic dressed up or dressed down. Pair it with a pastel pink pencil skirt and a black & white striped crop top for an ideal spring look. This is a fantastic transitional outfit from day to night. Wear the jacket fully zipped during daytime for a conservative, corporate-friendly style and unzipped at night to exhibit a flirty flash of peek-a-boo midriff for fun.
–
Add it as a finishing touch to  jeans and a flowy tank top. Tis a perfect outfit for any daytime activity –  running weekend errands, brunch, shopping, etc. In like manner, it’s suitable to transition for an evening out. Trade your sneakers for stilettos and swap out handbags – to glam up either look – a rhinestone clutch for play and large black tote for day.
