February blog

Happy February!  We’re heading into the undeniably two most beautiful months of the year - which I’m sure you’re ready for!  I think we’ve all had enough of the overcast skies, periodic cold snaps and rain!  Spring in Florida just demands beautiful colors, easy textures and effortless style!

If you’ve been a DJ girl for a while, then you know spring means CP Shades washable linens! The Hampton pant has always been a hands down favorite - nice straight leg, drawstring waist - a basic for Spring and Summer!

Make it casual by rolling up the bottom and throwing on this wonderfully comfortable sneaker from Phillipe Model.  Whether you choose the version in white or the subtle metallic, it’s a great new updated look!

There are so many ways to tweak these pants…Grab a Sundry tee (never to early to start thinking about Valentine’s Day)

or Revel tee,

a Minnie Rose sweater

or CP Shades beautiful, embroidered blouse.

I’ve heard a lot of  people asking for shorts.  Well, CP Shades Piper bermuda short is a terrific option.  Great length and fantastic look when paired back to a matching blouse.  When worn with this beautiful Marsell chunky heel mule, it’s a polished daytime look - perfect if you're heading out to lunch with the girls!

Spring is also when our Frank & Eileen assortment kicks into high gear.  Everyone’s favorite Wicklow Italian chino pant now in this fabulous baby blue (go for the monochromatic look and pair with their Henley)

and dime gray has gotten off to a strong start. 

Beautiful soft shades that go back to many options!  For the linen lovers, how beautiful is their Kinsale pant in this subtle shade of rose?   

I also love the look with a classic white blouse - if you don’t have their Barry

or Eileen blouse yet in the tattered denim, it’s time to grab one!

Looking for something a bit more classic? New York based company TWP is characterized by their quality fabrics and sexy yet subtle aesthetic.  Just  look at the beautiful lines and sleeve detail!  

Ready to liven it up a bit and branch away from solids?  How about a fun plaid

or rose print- sure to put a smile on your face!

I love it back to L’Agence’s Sada high rise crop jean in a crisp white

and a Calleen Cordero studded sandal. Not just a cute look, but comfortable too!

The vintage prints of Mikki Thumb’s crinkle blouses are always a hit.  The patterns go with so many of the wonderful bottoms we have in right now. 

The perfect travel piece- just roll in a ball and throw in your suitcase.  The more crinkled the better!

A fabulous denim jacket should be a staple in your closet - especially when it’s a Florida friendly light weight like this option from L’Agence. 

Whether you wear it with your Frank and Eileen pants, CP shades shorts or over a Luna Luz dress - it’s a must have!

Speaking of Luna Luz - we’re heading into the season where this is what you’re going to want to be wearing!  The requisite two pocket skirt is always a favorite.  Choose from a neutral solid or opt for a fun ombre print- either way, you can’t go wrong. All you need is any easy sweater or solid tee.  I’m loving the soft shades of blue this season - flattering for so many skin tones!   How fabulous does this cotton blend sweater look with this skirt?  Keep an eye on your emails for our upcoming Lula Luz event with the National Sales Director.

 A Calleen Cordero mule finishes the look and you’re out the door!

Of course, there’s always the need to have something just a bit dressier in your closet for those special dinners out with friends or a night on the town!  Bring out your wild side in this silk Forte Forte sleeveless dress. It speaks for itself, so accessories can take a back seat this time! 

  Looking for something a little more subdued?  How beautiful is this Hannah floral silk dress?  Hand dyed and block printed in India, their pieces are truly special.

 As you know, Pedro Garcia is my sandal of choice for the summer. This new style, Janna, with Swarovski crystals and rope sole is great with any of the flowy dresses you’re sure to be wearing in the heat of the summer but equally at home with a pair of jeans and a Go Silk blouse.

Best of all, they take up no room in a carry-on or suitcase!  Believe me, you’ll be so happy you have them!

So - it’s never too early to start thinking about Valentine’s Day - it’s just around the corner and has a habit of sneaking up on us!  From beautiful Rosa Maria rings 

or necklaces,

to one of our new belts in a pop of color

or the always well-received Faliero Sarti shawls, we have countless options and our fashion stylists are always here to lend a hand!

Wishing all our DJ girls the sweetest of Valentine’s Day!
