Peace, Love and Happiness!

The 60's are baaaaaaaack!  But this time they are back with a splash of the 90's and I simply LOVE it!  Bring on the high-waisted flare jeans, whimsical braids and floral blouse patterns.  Stacy Anderson was just the perfect photographer to capture this 60's/90's rival vibe and Christia Adair Park provided the perfect natural backdrop.

Ok, I have a confession:  I'm not really a "pattern" print kind of gal.  Honestly, I'm just not into wearing patterns.  I never have been.  For some unexplainable reason, my eye keeps falling toward Fall Floral patterns.  My typical M.O. involves solid color fabrics and garments with interesting elements and silhouettes.  Until now . . . Enter the Fall Floral.  This season's Fall Floral patterns are so beautiful. They seamlessly join summer's floral elements with fall's color palette making for an easy seasonal transition.

The high-waist flare jean has found itself back too.  Not only are they on-trend but flare jeans are super comfortable.  In case you might be on the fence about rocking the high-waist flare jean, here are 3 reasons that will change your mind:

3 Reasons to Wear Flares 

• Legs for Days: Who doesn't like longer legs? Paired with a heel or wedge, flares totally make your legs look longer.

• Dangerous Curves Ahead: The high-waist on a flare jean accentuates natural curves and gives you that "bam! bam! bam!" figure.

• Junk in the Trunk: Let's not neglect the back view. Flares just seem to make your booty look fab. I don't know what kind of physics are involved but flares are simply magic!
