Four times a year, every season, normally on a Monday when I am off work, I hop into my car and drive to my local Ulta store and buy three nail polishes. It’s become my little ritual for the last several years. People change their handbags with each outfit, I like to change my nail polish. No I don’t have manicures every time I change my nail color, I do it myself. I learned at a very early age how to paint my nails. My parents thought that young girls should not paint their nails or wear make-up until they were at least in high school, I was in the fourth grade when the obsession began.

Thick or thin, vertical or horizontal, Spring 2013 is all about stripes. Michael Kors, an all time favorite in creating what women want, uses stripes in a...
Metallics on the Rise
posted by Styled Now!
Heading towards an ultra modern design, cutting edge and certainly futuristic, metallics are a major highlight in the Spring/ Summer 2013 runway collections. High shine textures or mirrored effects on skirts, heels or accessories are exhilarating this spring and can be combined with this season’s delicate pastels. Metallics were also spotted on the runway in a more classic approach like the all over metallic sequined dress from Diane Von Furstenberg or Jill Stuart’s disco ball maxi dress this spring.
