Styling Tip from Glamour Magazine – “Let’s be honest – you could wear anything with a skirt this gorgeous; but the juxtaposition of the baseball  shirt is particularly cool and quirky.“

Styling Tip from Glamour Magazine – “There is a hint of the fifties in this picnic tablecloth print. but the proportions make it fresh. Top off a waist clinching skirt with a boxy crewneck for balance”

Styling Tip from Glamour Magazine – “Bling-y gold is a winner for the day or night – if you follow the advice of model Arlenis Sosa : ‘Metallics can be very striking so limit accessories to tone it down a bit’”

Styling Tip from Glamour Magazine – “We love mixing materials especially tough and sweet. A high-waisted pencil skirt is great with a crop top – which you can layer over a tank if you’re not feeling showy”
