6 Things We Want to Share This Week

Kate Middleton Royal Wedding via Elle
  1. At last, the Prince and Princess have become one; and the long-awaited dress worn by Kate Middleton at her Royal Wedding was revealed this morning! Middleton chose Alexander McQueen because of “the beauty of its craftsmanship and its respect for traditional workmanship and the technical construction of clothing.”  The dress and wedding were a tribute to all of the flowers of England (check out the lace detailing and the train hem; and the wedding cake!) Well said Princess!  Here are 9 other tidbits to know now about the Royal Wedding.
  2. Now that the Royal Wedding is over, we have more time to focus on our lovely mama’sMother’s Day is coming up on May 8th, and in case you haven’t gotten a present yet, no worries! Take a look at this great selection of mom-approved gifts, from sunhats to summer tote-bags, sure to make her love you more than she already does!
  3. Step out of your snow boots and transition into an edgy-chic spring bootie! 3.1 Philip Lim and Alexander Wang showcased various styles on the runway, from open-toed, open-heeled, laced-up or cut-out, the shoe looks fantastic with practically everything from a party dress to your favorite pair of denims!
  4. Another super comfortable and chic option for your feet in the warm weather are ballet flats.  We are loving these Cinderella plastic pairs in bright, solid and color-block hues.  Comfy, lively, and waterpoof – an excellent choice for the rainy, yet warm, spring weather!
  5. Now that spring has been showing its true colors, it’s time to show off your dresses!  If you still haven’t found your favorites, take a look at Elle’s top 15 summer dresses to stock up on now, and choose your favorite (or 2 or 3)!
  6. We’ve been ooo-ing and ahh-ing over the 70’s trend, especially flared bottoms! Elle MacPherson has sported an effortlessly-chic and fabulous take on the trend – classic white button-down tucked into long, wide denims, finished off with a bold leather gold-accented belt. Groovy-chic!
