Trend Alert: Peekaboo Nails!

We are absolutely LOVING the new Peekaboo Nail manicures we are seeing around. SO FUN! Why haven't we ever thought of this before?

Peekaboo Manicures, or "Louboutin" Manicures as they are sometimes called, are nails with the under-side painted as well as the top, so there is a flash of color or pattern from the underside, much like a Christian Louboutin shoe. So sexy!

Check out these awesome examples we found from some other blogs online:

F1!

We are SO excited about the new Circuit of the America's F1 Racetrack that was built here in Austin, TX that we put up some new race-inspired outfits to celebrate the preliminary races today! Hope everyone made it out to C.O.T.A. to watch the FIRST EVER F1 race on American soil! 

Styled Event: Sparkle!

Lovely: A Style Blog Wedding Stylist Kristi was on hand to design a mini wedding design for local Austin wedding planning giant, Leave The Details To Me, Event and Wedding Consulting. Below are some photos of the stunning work. Sequins, glitter, and everything glam were the talk of the show! Hope you enjoy!

The key to using sequins or glitter en masse is to keep everything else clean and simple, and to let the focal point shimmer and shine as it was intended to do! Floral designs were provided by Flora Fetish, and rentals were provided by Premiere Party Central.

Olympic Funny

You know how we love that movie "Mean Girls"? Well, we thought this was too much!

What to Wear to the Beach this Summer

Summer is in full swing, and now that we are settling in to the HOT HOT HOT and lazy days of the season, we think it's well about time we offer you some relief. Beaches are where it's at these days, and while some of us love to let it all hang out and flaunt what we've got, some others just want to look cute, stylish, and summer appropriate while we soak up the rays. We have some outfits to assist with this dilemma, both for a day outside, as well as a summery look for the office on those days when you long for the beach. Enjoy!

Style Icon of the Week: Kate Middleton

With all the London Olympic Buzz lately, we decided to make this week's Style Icon Kate Middleton! We cant think of anyone who exhibits more class and glamour (and not to mention great taste in men!) than Duchess Kate! Enjoy this Issa/McQueen/Burberry British feast for the eyes!

Patriotic Wedding

Nothing says America like the good old red, white, and blue. And you can TOTALLY have them be your wedding colors, too! Who says they can't be tailored and elegant? And P.S....can you think of a better celebration than a wedding, AND the birth of this great nation? We think not!

Style Icon of the Week: RIHANNA

With her bold style and fearless fashion risks, this diva isn't afraid to rock any style she likes...and we LOVE it! Is there anything sexier than confidence? We think not!

While we might not always "agree" with her fashion choices, the thing we love most about Rihanna is her ability to OWN whatever she wears! That's what is most important about having your own style...being able to flaunt it!
