Best of Spring: Accessories Report and

Well girls, we've been hard at work researching all of the spring fashion trends, finding the best of the best in everything from denim and dresses to skirts and sweaters. We've been making our Must-Have lists and checking off those prized items one at a time, hoping against all hope that we would be able to find the perfect pair of figure flattering jeans for spring before they were all snapped up. And I've got to admit we've made great progress in getting those winter wardrobes all switched out and updated for spring. But there is one thing left to do. We've got to accessorize!

It has often been said that accessories make the outfit. Every fashionista worth her Balenciaga knows that a little black dress and a pair of strappy stilettos will only go so far. Need an ensemble for business dinner? Add an updated string of pearls and a chic clutch bag to that classic LBD for the perfect touch of professional chic. How about a Girl's Night Out? Accessorize with a multi-chain necklace, a studded handbag and a pair of edgy skyscrapers and your LBD has gone from prim and proper to über-haute! As stated earlier, the accessories make the outfit!

I've had my girly girl posse hard at working researching the hottest accessory trends for spring, so let's get down to business!

Nude Heels: These are a great investment for spring and summer, and nude heels will also transition far into fall as well (and they add a definite air of individuality!) Look for styles with a little something extra, something that will make them stand out from the pack. Chain embellishment, bows, buckles and stud detail.

Sexy Sunglasses: You know you should protect your eyes from the harsh glare and bright sunlight, so you may as well look amazing while you do so, right? My favorite shades for spring are from Cinzia Designs. I am blessed/cursed with long lashes and often have a hard time finding sunglasses that fit well, without my lashes rubbing against the lenses every time I blink. My shades of choice for spring are the Torrid in tortoise shell for daily wear and the Links for casual wear from Cinzia. Both have gradient lenses and offer 100% UV protection, and a very flattering fit.

Fashion Scents: Yes girls, scent is an accessory! As Coco Chanel said, "A woman who doesn't wear shopbop.comperfume has no future." Well these fabulous spring scents will have your future looking and smelling very bright indeed!

Chain Gang: The vote is unanimous — big bold chains are the accessory of choice for spring and summer. From exquisite necklaces to bold bracelets in silver and gold, chain link is all the rage. Layers of chains or just one statement piece, choose the style which suits you best.

Fabulously Floral Bags: I just adore floral's, and am thrilled to have found a few fantastic handbags to fit my spring flower fix. I adore this floral embellished top handle tote from Galian. Especially in the vibrant red! And one of my new faves is this embossed little credit card case from Odon Designs. I love the way it slips into my bag or my pocket and is so easy to find! And check out the adorable frilly floral cutouts on this satchel from Jessica Simpson.

It's all in the accessories darling!

 

Earth Day Goodies!

While becoming totally eco-friendly takes time and concentrated efforts, the small steps can make a big difference.  This Earth Day, help the planet (and yourself) by replacing a few everyday items throughout your home with eco-friendly options.

On your sink: Radius
Plastic may be the easiest material to make toothbrushes from, but the folks at Radius (www.radiustoothbrush.com) care more about being environmentally responsible.  Through using recycled material, the Radius Source Toothbrush puts an eco-friendly spin on an everyday hygiene product.  Made from recycled materials such as dollar bills, flax fiber or wood, these toothbrushes also last much longer than the average toothbrush.

In your shower: Wembé
Wembé is a handmade, eco-luxe soap from Paraguay. Wembé was created by a mother and son duo from Paraguay who wanted to share the natural ingredients and restorative qualities of the rainforest with people around the world. Wembé uses only the finest natural and organic plants and ingredients to create their exotic blends like mango, avocado, black clay, yerba mate, coconut, white rose and more.  For more information, visit www.Wembe.com.

In your cosmetics case: Christopher Drummond Beauty
Fresh, clean, and new: all the characteristics we associate with spring will be reflected in Spring 2010 hypoallergenic makeup trends.  Christopher Drummond Beauty’s line of all-natural, vegan, and organic-based products feature pastels and corals which not only beautify you, but the planet too. 

In your closet: Earth Friendly Laundry Detergent
Safe guard your home and improve your indoor air quality with the leader in the development and production of environmentally friendly cleaning supplies, Earth Friendly Products (www.ecos.com)  Earth Friendly’s ECOS laundry detergent with a built-in coconut-based softener, is the world’s #1 selling “green” laundry detergent. ECOS is a concentrated liquid laundry detergent that cleans a full laundry load with only 1 ounce and is available in four refreshing scents.

Kiss My Face Peace Soap, and their partnership with Seeds of Peace, the nonprofit, nonpolitical organization dedicated to empowering young people from regions of conflict with the leadership skills and interpersonal networks necessary to advance reconciliation and coexistence. The new castile soap from Kiss My Face is formulated with 100% natural ingredients including olive, coconut and jojoba oils, challenging the established understanding that various chemical ingredients are required for personal and household cleaning. An excellent choice for sensitive skin, Peace Soap contains natural olive oil to alleviate skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.  Castile soap is a safe and gentle alternative to traditional soaps that often contain harsh ingredients. The simple formulation helps to reduce the carbon footprint and minimize waste imposed on the environment, while allowing for multiple benefits and uses. 

Happy Earth Day darlings!
