Mingling Mondays ~ Happy 4th of July 2011

Kitten Lounge Reader Question:

What do you wear to a 4th of July BBQ, Firework Viewing, Party Etc

This is a super easy answer! Unless there is a suggested dress code ie - this is a cocktail event so please dress in your best summer whites, the door is completely open to what you would like to wear! In that instance, you think about all the places you will be hopping around to that day, what the weather is like and the feeling that you would like to present in your dedicated style! Although you're more than welcome to rock your red, white and blue colors, this is not necessary! I once had someone ask me when I taped a segment why I didn't have more of an Americana look. Since it wasn't mandatory that I wore one, I prescribe to the theory that Americana style doesn't mean a certain kind of look NOR does it mean that certain colors must be worn.

For me it's about comfort! If I'm not going to be at the pool, more than likely, I would rather be decked out in a super cute flowy maxi with fun accessories. I know there will be tons of pics, if it happens to cool down a bit or you are in extreme AC you're covered. I love having that goddess look when I'm out and having those fun neutral tones. This allows me play with my jewelry and as I am a huge believer in mixing metals, the above pieces by Bottega Veneta, Satya Jewelry and Ila & I are so drool worthy and pair perfectly with a new fave line of mine - Jen's Pirate Booty! Whatever you choose, it's all about fun! Have an amazing Fourth of July.

Wearable Wednesdays ~ Easy Peasy

Today has been a hectic day but in the evenings I'm starting to go to dinners, birthday parties, holiday events and more. So even though the day is spent with me just keeping up with everything, I like the ability to go out to look like a million bucks. My outfits are always simple and of course, I love to pile on the accessories! Today, we're focuing on Free People's one shoulder dress which you can wear as a dress or with leggings if you're so inclined. Nothing is better (at least for me) than to have a solid color and then to pop in one of my favorite skins - python to add a little texture and to make the whole look pop! Whether you have a pair of python slingbacks or this super cute clutch that also serves as a bracelet, you're all set. To add a little more glam, Hello Kitty is not only adorable but decadent in Citrine and a Cameo - you can't get any classier than this is the perfect ring! You'll shine for all of your events while being completely comfortable!

Treasure Tuesday ~ A Fab Puppy Bed

CameobedI can't wait until I get my Yorkie! We have set a time for sometime between after Thanksgiving and prior to Christmas! After speaking with my sister, she explained that I should begin reaching out to puppy breeders and introducing myself to them! This is definitely going to be fun research in addition to all the work we will do to getting everything for our new home - more details to follow once everything is solidified!

My favorite puppy store to walk by in the city is Trixie + Peanut (they also have a site online as well). I love this Cameo Blossom Pet Bed that they have which has a Yorkie pictured on it. I think that this is such a cute way to allow them to lounge while you're working or watching TV. I think that it has a fun design and is something both of you will enjoy!
