5 Easter Outfit Ideas

February 22, 2016March 23, 2013

Easter is my favorite fashion holiday! Spring dress and hats are the most fun things to wear for me. Wearing spring dresses, pearls, and large sunglasses actually helped me get the name April Golightly. In college, my wardrobe mostly consisted of these items. A guy in one of my classes started calling Little Miss April Golightly with the “Asian” accent from the movie. Other students started calling me that and it just stuck. I have come a long way in my taste since then, but I still adore the Holly Golightly look and dressing up for Easter.

Bermuda Shorts Outfit

Bermuda Shorts Outfit

The Spring Runways were filled with Bermuda shorts and nautical tops. It is a such an easy look to find in your closet already. Also, who wants to wear short shorts? Considering I have thighs and a serious tuckus, it is extremely difficult for me to find shorts that look good on me. Bermuda shorts are the way to go this spring and summer. You will be comfortable and on trend! Rare, I know!

Spring Trends

Maria is wearing a tone of spring trends in this outfit. My favorite trend is eyelet. Luckily, the Spring 2013 runways were filled with eyelets. Heavy hitters like Valentino, Giambattista Valli, Bottega Veneta, Stella McCartney, and Victoria Beckham all showed the delicate white eyelet fabric in modern ways. I have been a huge fan of eyelet since I had eyelet pillows on my childhood bed. My mother always said that eyelet reminded her of her mother. I was young when she died so there are very few things that remind me of her. Eyelet is one of them.

Long necklaces are a perfect accessory, especially when pregnant – they make you look thinner by giving the eye something long to focus on.

Barrister’s Ball AKA Law Student Prom Shopping

December 21, 2017March 16, 2013

After listening to me whine about how tough law school was, my sister decided to avoid law school like plague. Avoiding the institution was easy for until she met her current boyfriend who is a 3L at Nova Law School in Plantation, Florida. She is going to be her beau’s date to the upcoming Barrister’s Ball. This gala is a tradition of all law schools that I know of where the law students cut loose and break out the prom-wear. Barrister’s Ball really is the law student’s prom. I went every year when I was in law school. You know me, I jump at any excuse to get dressed up. My sister and I went prom shopping for a law school prom dress. We found a few amazing prom dresses at Nordstrom.
