Ahhh yes, It is another installation of Ask A Stylist and at the moment I am working on a big'un. But first, I am bringing you this fun post in hopes of helping Toni M with her
poncho villa dilemma.
Toni sent me this cute Poncho stating, "I have no idea how to style this, help." Of course, being the narcissistic sucker for those in distress, I took on the challenge.
She also sent me these cute flower hair accessories wanting so new and fresh ways to wear them with her wardrobe. So, here are the three outfits I put together with her desires in mind.
Embrace the Rainbow

Why it works
Adding a little color to this chic white poncho is oh so Spring/summer, especially that fun-loving color yellow. Pull all of the colors together with the printed bag and instead of wearing the flower in your hair, wear it as a brooch instead to pull more color to your face. Wear it near the shoulder, so that it looks as if it is holding the poncho together. It will look trés chic and original, not to mention quite quirky because you are doing something not expected.
Go Bohemian
Sleeveless dress, $56 H M zip bag, £9.99 Sequin sparkle jewelry, $32 Stella dot jewelry, $34 Olia Designs feather necklace, $99 Antique jewelry, $179 Hair clip accessory, $13 Make Up For Ever waterproof makeup, $18 Nail polish, $11 Billie HolidayA Liberal's Libretto Happy Birthday to Billie HolidayAsk a StylistFashion Fair Lip Teasers®
Why It Works
This beautiful drapey dress is begging to be accessorize. Bright colors thrown upon the canvas, untamed and making no apologies for it. Using all--at least most--of the colors from the color palette of the dress, this ensemble shows off your bohemian side. Instead of wearing one flower in your hair, wear both, channeling Billie Holiday and make everyone envious that you have enough vintage style to pull it off. Accessorize with bangles up the arm, a leaf necklace and this blue cocktail ring and you will look like Mother Earth-- a sexy, sensual, colorful mother earth.
Color Block It
Stretchy pants, $17 Leather shoes, $64 Dorothy Perkins blue handbag, $27 River Island pave jewelry, $69 Cocktail ring, $51 1928 silver jewelry, $24 NARS Cosmetics red lips makeup, $24 Nail polish, $11 T Babaton knee high high topZirconia jewelryEye makeupAsk a StylistAsk a Stylist
Why It Works
This art-deco inspired ensemble is Parisian I can't take it. Black and white color-blocking is so metropolitan, so Parisian, so NYC jazz age.. Instead of wearing the flower in your hair, wear it at the waist, almost like an embellished belt. It would catch everyone's attention because of its unexpected placement. The white brogues (oxford shoes) are so 'it' this season--being white and a brogue, you just can't go wrong--you'll be able to wear this outfit every season. Had a little color with the bag, nails and lips and accessorize with statement pieces like the leaf necklace and Eiffel Tower ring and everyone will be coming to you for fashion advice.
Toni, I hope that this has helped you and good luck with the poncho. Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Trend Alert 2012: Art Deco-rate

Good morning chicklets! Happy first day of Spring and Aries--my astrological sign. It has taken me a minute to write this post because I was suffering from a bit of blogger's block.
I love this era so much that I wanted to do it justice. I wanted to present it in such an artistic flare that you, too, would love it as much as I do.
This classic trend inspired by the 1920s women'srebellion movement and Jazz Age and the likes of such designers as Vionnet and Coco Chanel, is fashion at its most artistic. You can do no wrong here. The gaudier the better. The more individualistic, the more true to form you are.
The Art Deco/Flapper Fashion era was marked by bold prints, moody jewel tones, black, silver, dropped waists, draped neck blouses, pleats, lace, velvet and shapeless silhouettes. This time around we have modernized it by incorporating bright beautiful colors along with the above. It is just magnificent.
Here are a few ways to incorporate the 1920s/30s into your fashionable wardrobes.
Mix menswear pieces like palazzo pants and brogue shoes with distinctly feminine statement pieces like cocktail rings, colorful accessories, feathered boas and shoulder baring tops. Don't be afraid to be artistic in your choices. Go big!
For more inspiration on this style, check out the Oprah Mag Online editorial
Art Deco in Interior design:
With its velvety, lush, bright and moody colors and silvered and mirrored surfaces, art deco interior design is the epitome of individualistic luxury and elegance verging on gaudy. In fact, most of the buildings in Chicago are done in this style and the Empire State building in NYC is also inspired by Art Deco. And the home of Boisset-Gallo family.

Makeup
Makeup in this period was all about smoldering dark eyes and bold lips and that trend is no different today. Here are some inspirations and a tutorial by Pixiwoo.
