Charlotte Le Bon Wears ALEX AND ANI Bracelet

Charlotte Le Bon wore ALEX AND ANI at the New York Screening of ‘The Promise’ at The Paris Theatre last night in New York City.

You can shop the exact style on www.alexandani.com.

 

#KeepThePromise

The bracelet was made in partnership with The Promise, a film set during the final years of the Ottoman Empire that is bringing light to the events that took place during the Armenian Genocide. A promise is a commitment to make something happen by any means. It is your word – bonding you to something greater than yourself. When a promise is upheld, it defines who you are within. This bracelet is a promise to the Armenian people, honoring a history of resilience and a culture that embodies the unstoppable power of the human spirit.

Alex and Ani’s Founder, Carolyn Rafaelian, is an American of Armenian descent, and this holds special meaning for her. Carolyn’s grandfather arrived in the United States in 1913, but his entire family was killed during this tragic time.

Please help us in spreading this message of commitment! 20% from each bracelet sold will benefit humanitarian efforts.

Noteworthy celebrities who have been seen wearing the bracelets include: Chris Cornell, Orlando Bloom, Nina Dobrev, and Christine Evangelista, among others. Kim Kardashian posted it on Snapchat prior to the Los Angeles screening.

Victoria Beckham X Target Collection | Review

Target is known for providing its customers with affordable fashion.  The discount retailer has made collaborations with various clothing designers and the recent in-store collection was Victoria Beckham for Target.

Victoria Beckham is a sought after businesswoman and fashion designer.  She’s known for her sophisticated and minimalistic style.  What’s really interesting about Victoria is that she was introduced as a Spice Girl and can be seen with her kids carrying a Hermes handbag.

Victoria Beckham X Target Collection Review:

In true blogger fashion I wanted to view the collection for myself.  I must admit that Target is meticulous about placing their top-selling brands near the front of the store.  The retailer in my region displayed the One-Shoulder Dress, Mint Green Lace Bomber, and Collared Dress.  Every item was well categorized; placing the activity books and kids apparel near the designer collection.

From viewing the collection (in-store) each piece was well-made and used quality fabrics.  There were no deformities in terms of darts, zippers and stitching.  The patterns were perfect for the season with florals and scallops.

I have one suggestion that clothing pieces are created for petite sizing such as sleeves, hems, and pants length. Also, some of the items were above Target pricing. For example, the Bug Bomber Jacket was $70.00 and Cali Lily Top/Pants (purchased together) was $70.00 and above.

Special thank you to Victoria Beckham and Target for showcasing diverse models.  The collection also provided pieces in the plus size department.

Ann Taylor Classic Pants – Wardrobe Staple

Like your favorite LBD or go-to pair of jeans, a classic pair of pants is a staple in any wardrobe – although they aren’t the most fun to shop for.  Now, instead of expecting you to fit the pants, Ann Taylor created the pants that fit you.

With 3 silhouettes (ankle, crop, trouser), fits, heights, 11 sizes and endless colors, Ann Taylor designed the pants to fit the full range of women who wear them, offering something for every body.  Please see below selections featuring pant styles ranging from on trend prints and bright hues to classic pin stripes and pant suits. 

Mother’s Day Style and Shopping List from Ann Taylor

It’s time to start thinking about what you’d like to gift your mom – and what she would like to wear – on Mother’s Day (May 14).

Ann Taylor’s Spring 2017 collection features trends such as bow and tassel details, earthy neutrals, gem stones and swinging spring dresses – perfect for any taste or style.  The brand’s International Women’s Day Scarf collection ($128 at AnnTaylor.com) is also a great way to honor the women and mothers in your life – with each scarf hand-dyed by women from a village in the Himalayas, all as unique as the women who made them.

I would also like to highlight the new video, This is Ann, which highlights past, present and futures generations of women and the victories they have achieved, to consider sharing as well.

What To Wear: Sneakers Beyond The Ordinary Look

This season everyone’s opting for comfortable shoes. Slide sandals, ballerina flats, and sneakers are spring must-have items.

Purchasing a pair of sneakers is the one fashion trend that sticks out. This comfortable shoe can not only be worn with an athletic shirt and leggings. Sneakers are (now) styled in a variety of ways beyond the ordinary attire.

From midi skirts to track pants, wearing a pair of sneakers provides comfort and style.
