Cutting Edge: lasercut trends

One of spring/summer trends that I have been obsessing about recently comes from an old idea of the weave and wicker basket style patterns.  It's cute but much more intricate in detailing --laser cut designs.  It's been popping up in clothing patterns, shoes and other accessories.  It's so gorge!

The cuts can range in various patterns and the intricacies are just amazing!  It can also vary in prices so don't think that just because it's intricately designed, it's going to break the bank.  You'll see after the jump, that some of my pieces aren't so expensive, but the detailing makes it look pricier!

Jumpsuits & Rompers: not just child's play

Ever since the epic fail of my missing out twice on the romper from Kardashians for BEBE romper, I've been obsessing about trying to find a close alternative.  Don't get me wrong, I've got multiple rompers ranging from beach wear to casual workout wear with a hood and even the dressy halter kind.

I love rompers and jumpsuits.  It eliminates the worry of putting together separates!  It's not just for little kids anymore, the styles and so do the fabrics it comes it!  You can look chic with a jumpsuit for a youthful look--from a sporty french terry to a dressy night-time wear of silk or satin.  Alot of the brands are jumping the bandwagon of having the piece as part of their spring collection.

No, I did not step back into sthe 60 or 70s! lol.  It's sort of my ode to the oldies =) Okay, so I'm not completely sold on Boho Chic, but adding some elements here and there to my summer wardrobe makes my summer outfits abit more trendy and fun!

Gypsy Scarf Mini Dress

Okay so my hyped up mood from this song has somewhat faltered into a more mellow Bruno Mars song "lazy song" lol.

It's officially summer and I love it! The first two days were gorgeous to say the least.  The sun was beaming down and the temperature rose to a true summer heat! I have officially taken my summer clothes out of storage and have tried them on (just in case lol).  I am so excited to wear them! Of course it doesn't stop me from browsing one of my absolute *fave* shops, Marciano!

In ode of summer and the cool boho/70s vibe that's trending right now, I thought this summer dress seemed appropriate.  It is cute, flowy and effortless! All of the things I love in a summer outfit! There is nothing worse than fussing over an outfit that has more frills than comfort!
