This weekend is going to be not rainy but cloudy and thunder storms. But its still going to be humid and hot. What would go perfect with this weather is shorts and a loose tank top and rain boots. Obviously an umbrella too just in case it rains. Its official. Im in love with summer. I love her smile. I love her knees. I love how she licks her lips before she talks. I love her heart-shaped birthmark on her neck. I love it when she sleeps. (500 days of summer,2013,p.nd)

Summer is around the corner, that means very hot weather, longer days, beach, parties,etc. Also music festivals, one of the most famous events in the summer, everyone looks forward for this. It helps us youngsters get in touch with our favorite music, to let loose and have fun! If you are just going to the beach, you can still use these awesome fashion styles just to rock out all summer long.

Seventeen magazine has so many suggestions, Mcgrath(2013) suggests beautiful and cool styles for this summer. Neon colors are in, the more colorful you are the better!!! You can wear a nice bikini top with shorts and a nice summer hat.(Mcgrath,2013,p1.)

June is here! It's hot as ever after that heat wave and I'm pretty sure everyone was out. It doesn't matter if you were home, at the pool or beach, or at someone's house; stay in STYLE! People are starting to throw barbeques and what's better than going to them looking like a fashionista? Now when wearing capris, shorts, skirts, or dresses, wedges are the way to go!  They aren't dressier than stilettos and aren't as casual as sandals. Wedges are the best way to keep cool and that's a main priority when it's summer in the fashion world.

When wearing wedges, it's best to stay natural. Browns and beiges are neutral and go with any and every summer outfit. But when wedges are in color, it's more fun and experimental. My favorite wedges heels have to be Aldo OHAR. They're comfortable, cute, and classy. Aldo OHAR shoes have a modern twist on the classic wedge sandal (Aldo, 2013, p.nd). What more could you ask for?

This whole week will be a little bit more fresh outside because its going to be around the 70’s. But that still doesn't mean you have to stop wearing shorts and stuff. Probably you’ll want to wear a small cardigan on top of it because it will be a little bit chilly. It would be nice to wear open toed sandals. I am a summer baby, so usually I have my birthday as a good memory. (Crosley,S,. 2013, p.nd). Summer is usually the best part of the whole entire year, you make good memories and you will always have a story to tell.

In case you didn't know, we are located in the tri-state area. That means heat wave! The next 2-4 days are going to be extremely hot, more or less 90 degrees each day. It's even the last week of school to some. This means summer is approaching fast! Now I love high waisted shorts, so I definitely recommend them. They're cute with tee shirts or crop tops. Though high waisted apparel is from the 70s, it's a vintage style to always keep in your closet. You can wear them for style, to lengthen your legs, or even shape your hips. These are examples pf how to wear high waisted shorts. They're styled for day and night and day-to-night activities (Corals+Cognacs, 2012, p.nd).

The heat is kicking up and more and more pools are opening up up. Thats how you know summer is almost here. For this heat you can wear high waisted shorts and a nice tank top with a nice design on it. No cardigan will be needed to wear over it because it will be just too hot for one. You can either wear vans or converses along with this outfit. If you've ever spent a summer in New York, you kno that we gothmatics love rooftop parties. (Duggan, L.,2013, p.nd) This outfit would go perfectly with outdoor parties.

Prom season!

Some of you may not be sure if what to wear, but I’m here to help. Prom is all about what dress suits you best.  It’s a time to show off everything you’ve got. You want to be the one the guys wish was their date and some girls are jealous of. Dresses come in all sorts of different styles. It’s up to you to pick a fabric, color, pattern, or style that reflects your personality. Short or long, new or vintage, bought or homemade, your dress defines you (Rubin, 2013, p.nd). Personally, I love long dresses. I think they’re the best formal and fun attire for prom. I would stay away from such dark colors. Black is a no and white is exceptional. You always want to amaze everyone in the room. If your dress has an open back or a high neckline, an up-do or side bun is satisfying and elegant. If your dress is strapped, halter, or has a sweetheart cut, down-do’s and ponytails will be fun and easy for the night.

Graduation day is almost here and its time for the ladies to start buying their dresses. Graduation dresses that girls can wear is long and strap-less dress. A graduation dress wouldn't be nice if it was poofy because a poofy dress would be better if it was for a sweet sixteen or something. Nice heels would go nice with this dress. A cardigan doesn't necessarily go with it but a shall would. Also a purse that you can carry in your hands would go perfectly with the dress. First of all, you might not have time to change, Second of all wear a dress that has pockets. Wear something with sleek and lastly check the weather. (Cadwood, C., 2013,p.nd) Its good to check the weather on the day of your graduation before you go buy it.

Finally, the first big spring event everyone is looking forward to: Memorial Day Weekend! It’s a time to remember all who died in military services and create bomb fashion statements. Lets stay patriotic, reds and blues. For Memorial Day in the fashion world, it’s traditional to wear white (Time and Date, 2013, p.nd). Stars and stripes are always fun patterns to wear. Memorial Day is a great way to express your love for America through what you wear.

Dare to be bold? Try something vintage like long skirts, hair accessories, and simple yet satisfying solid colors. Want to stay modern and retro? Use prints for the weekend, mainly the American flag. There’s so many ways to rock it so you’ll never blend in. Or you can always combine the two. Vintage fashion meets the modern world. Trying to stand out? Pasty and bold red lipstick is the perfect way to show off and define your lips.

Memorial Day is almost here! So now we can wear some patriotic outfits. Somethings that we can wear is shorts with a red,blue, or white tank top with some flats or sandals. Or you can wear a patriotic dress with sandals. A little cardigan can go with either outfits or both. I enjoy doing fashion shows and transforming myself into different looks for photo books.

It's the middle of May and it's almost summer. People are still in school, patiently waiting to get out. I know it's boring but you can always dress it up. A cute, colorful sundress or maxi dress can lighten up any mood. With some floral prints, you're sure to look like spring itself. These light dresses are fun and flirty and are suitable for any event. If it's a little chilly or breezy out, try a nice solid blazer or cardigan. They're always perfect to add to a light outfit and not over do it. It never hurts to accessorize and stay fashionable. And that's one thing you can't put a price on. (Egan, B, 2013, p.nd)

As you know, the sun is coming out and spring time is finally here. I would suggest a pair of nice strappy sandals to dress up any outfit. The colorful sandals add a pop to your feet and to your outfit. Who doesn't like color in spring? "I wanted a chunky sandal that was functional. That should tell you where I am as far as fashion."
