It's So Black & White

One color combo trend that I'm all about...all the time...is black and white. I decorated my home in black and white and I love to work this pair of colors into my everyday wardrobe, too. It's such a classic look and it's hard to really mess up these two colors together. Here a some of my favorite black and white pieces out right now that are brilliant.

Red, White and Blonde (I mean...Blue)

Whether you are hitting the beach, a bar, a BBQ or a pool party, you should be looking your best this 4th of July. While layering on the red, white and blue is imperative, there is definitely a classy way of doing this. These outfit options, from www.LaurenConrad.com, are three of my favorite looks. The far left option is perfect for fireworks, house parties, etc. Easy breezy enough for cornhole and still patriotic. The middle look is great for a pool party (could always substitute flats/sandals into this mix) or a BBQ. The look on the far right is a bit more dressed up and would make more sense for a more formal mixer or holiday cocktail hour. If you aren't too crazy about patriotic-colored garments, opt for some red, white and blue nails. Get fancy with nail designs (American flags, stars, stripes or solids). Cheers to a fabulously long and relaxing weekend!
