Summer Dresses

Living in Louisiana in the Summer is brutal. You want the least amount of clothes on possible. With temperatures at 95+ and humidity at 100%, you could say it's hot as H-E-double hockey sticks! Even at night. 

Dresses are the easiest way to stay cool. And when I say dresses, any dress that is flowy and doesn't touch your body, anywhere! Once you have experienced Louisiana in the Summer, you will understand. Here are a few perfect dresses for the season that we love and are a perfect piece to get you through the hot months.

Wedding Ready

It's that time of year again. The time we either love or hate-WEDDING SEASON! When I was in my 20's, and all of my friends were getting married, I truly loved it. I loved getting to see my friends I grew up with, partying until we couldn't party anymore, making memories (some I would rather forget) and getting to witness two people who loved each other (most of the time) start a new life together. 

But most of all, I LOVED dressing up! Of course, I wanted to look good so "the one that got away" would regret ever "getting away". Looking back, I'm sure it was all in my head, but, hey, I was in my 20's, what did I know? As long as I felt good, that's all that really mattered. 

So this is what I say to all the girls out there attending a wedding not married nor a prospect in sight: Look good for YOU! Feel good for YOU! Have fun! These are memories you will always cherish and never get back. Don't worry about "the boy". If he doesn't see your shining qualities, move on, the next guy will! And most of all, have fun with your girlfriends. They will be the ones who are always there for you! 

Here are a few looks perfect for Wedding Season that will make you feel AND look AMAZING! 

Go for the Gold

GOLD, the perfect neutral for Summer dresses, shorts and capris. From gold sandals to gold jewelry, it's the perfect shade that can go with just about anything.

Rock Gold Gladiators this Summer with every casual outfit. Keep your frock light & sweet but comfy & cool by sporting these notorious strappy flats.  They are the MUST HAVE this season.

Gold jewelry has been a trend on the up for several seasons. Whether it's a chunky piece, simple & elegant or piled on to make a statement, it's, simply, a pick you can not go wrong wearing.

Eleven 26 Boutique

The NEW shop is OPEN! My dream store is finally open and I could not be more happy. Eleven 26 Boutique has always been in the back of my mind. With God on my side and making everything fall into place, it happened. The new look is modern, comfortable and, well, me. It's a little eclectic with a lot of personality. 

Eleven 26 is located in the heart of Historic Cotton Port District, aka Antique Alley. The street has personality along with all the shops on the street. I wouldn't want to be in any other place. 

Fashion has always been my first love. This store allows me to dress customers for their important events, make new friends everyday and do something that has never felt like a job. As I get back to blogging, you will see my LOVE (Fashion) reborn.
