How to Compliment those simpe Pair of Jeans!




Happy Monday Glams!
It's a beautiful 57 degrees here in Washington DC and am lovingggggg it!

Todays outfit is quite simple, however what makes it pop are the accessories. I am wearing a simple pair of denim with a tan blazer, which is accessorized with subtle golden & peach Earrings with green embossed crock loafer shoes. The mix of golden bronze in the scarf softens the broad shoulders of the Jacket. This simple ensemble makes me feel subtle, yet feminine because of its fitted silhouette.  To add some texture to the outfit, I paired it with these oval golden rim sunglasses. When wearing jeans, you can add sophistication to your outfit by simply adding a blazer and complimenting accessories, this adds life to the outfit, more so that just a simple T-shirt by itself. 













Thanks For stopping by My Blog today. I hope to see you again soon.

The Floral Dress, "Naturally GlamRus."

How To Accessories a Floral Dress !

 Hello Glams


Floral Print dresses are staples of every fashionable woman's wardrobe. Such printed dresses usually require you to  carefully look at your choice of accessories when creating a look that is put-together without being visually
overwhelming. A Basic floral print accessorizing tip is simply to stay away from to much loud and bold accessories that would tend to clash or take away from the flower print of the dress. 
Belts
Creative fashionistas know that experimenting with different accessories can result in many looks from one dress. One way to add pop and contrast to a Floral dress, while adding definition to a look, is by wearing a belt. For multi-colored dresses, women could choose a belt that matches one of the colors in their dress or simply use a black or a nude belt as neutrals works with everything. By contrast, black and white floral print dresses can work with nearly any accessory color.
 
 
 
 
 
Shoes& Tights:
When selecting shoes to pair with a floral print dress, women should consider both the look of the
dress and the setting in which they plan to wear it. For warm months, sandals is always a good
 
choice. Flat or low-heeled sandals are wonderful options for occasions when the wearer may do a lot of walking, such as a shopping excursion. A high heel on the other hand  can take a floral print dress out on the town for the evening or to a dress-up affair. In my case I choose to opt for Boots paired with tights, a fur Vest and Leather Jacket in order to brisk the chilly weather that we are still experiencing here in Washington D.C.

While floral print dresses are staples of warm-weather months, they can transition from cool to warmer weather and vice verse as well. In those cases, you can do what I did which is to wear tights under the dress. You would need to make the right color choice of tight  to create a complete look.
A black opaque tight is best paired with dresses with a black background covered with a pop of bright flowers so as to Maintain sleek appearance without competing with print.

 Other Accessories:
Accessorizing creatively is a great way to extend the wear of a floral print dress. Women can wear boots,, a scarf, and a leather jacket, Sunglasses. a handbag and beautiful complimenting gloves, as am doing with these matching burgundy gloves that compliments the flower pattern on my dress. This combination creates an edgy look to soften a feminine floral print dress. In addition, women can take a streamlined, knee-length floral dress from a casual to a professional setting by topping it with a fitted jacket and work-appropriate heels, such as pumps or wedges.

Confidence comes from within, not from what you wear!

Happy Hump Day Glams!

Greetings from a very chilly Washington DC where it is only 28°. Just when we thought we were going to be ready for spring and I started to clean my closet and bring all of my sandals out, here comes the snow again so we have to deal with it and we have to be happy about it because we have a life, and that's what we're always going to be celebrating every day.

Today I'm wearing this key lime
Sweater because I wanted to brighten up my Wednesday morning and I wanted to add some life to this dreary looking day.

Today I'm wearing my hair in a simple pinup style which looks quite complicated but it's not, it just takes about five minutes to do. I wanted to highlight my face and I wanted to get ready to have my skin exposed a little bit to the sun as spring is getting ready to come out.

I kept the accessories quite minimum and simple to compliment the sweater. the necklace and the earrings are both Keylime so as not to distract or clash with the already bright sweater.




Thanks for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Naturally GlamRus, "Emerald Green."

Bring it on with the Emerald Green!


Hello Glams, Happy Saturday!

 
Today we're focusing on staying colorful for spring.

To often many women bring their dull Fall and winter wardrobes into spring. It's ok
to wear black, brown and grey along with your lighter tones, of course, just try to steer clear of wearing too much of them.



 
 
 
If you're going to grab your black leather jacket, please throw it on over a pretty floral dress. And dress up those grey skinny jeans with a bright top, not the black t-shirt you may have been reaching for. If you feel the need to wear a darker color, go with navy! It's versatile and Spring-appropriate.


Now, as you may have expected, there are a few colors we do not recommend for Spring.Blackbrown and grey.
