February Market Trip!

I spent the past week in Las Vegas at the Magic Fashion Show!  I am so excited to tell you about upcoming trends and share a sneek peak of what's to come for Fall!

First, let me tell you about all the fabulous Spring trends for 2011!  Most of these trends I've already talked about but I think it's fun to talk more and add some pictures!

NUDE-- Nude is a huge color for Spring!  Nude tops, dresses, and more importantly...SHOES!  Nudes shoes are everywhere because they are the most flattering color shoe you could possibly wear!  When wearing nude shoes you give the illusion of a longer leg!  Your leg isn't 'chopped' off by your shoes but instead it 'ellongates' it!
Here's a cute pair we currently have at the store-- only $29.99  shown in Pink but also available in Nude!
Another huge trend for this summer is CLOGS!  It goes with the whole 70's inspired look!  Look for lots of fun clog sandals arriving soon at Bella!

Like I mentioned about 70's inspired looks are huge for summer!  Lot's of fringe, bold prints, clogs, hair pieces, and more!  Here are a few items at Bella to add a little 70's inspiration to your wardrobe!
Another trend we saw at market was sheer paneling, crocheting, and lace!  The most basic top can look sexy with a little sheer detail or lace!  Lots of shirt with crochet detailing in back, lace layering, and more!

And of course the military trend!  The military trend looks to be around for yet another season and add too it some Biker inspired styles!  From ankle booties for
summer to motorcycle jackets...add a little masculine to your wardrobe!


At this show I did some shopping for both Summer and Fall next year!  I don't want to overwhelm you so I'll just give you some sneak peek pictures of a few styles to expect for Fall 2011!  More details to come over the next few months!




New styles arriving daily at Bella!  Check our Facebook and website for updated styles!

Finding your very own "Style"

Style [stahyl] –noun

2. a mode of living, as with respect to expense or display.
3. an elegant, fashionable, or luxurious mode of living: to live in style.
4. a mode of fashion, as in dress, esp. good or approved fashion; elegance; smartness.
 
What's your personal style?  Most style can't be summed up in just 1 word or "look", style is complicated and UNIQUE to you Personal style evolves...
Clothing and the way you dress can say a lot about you.  When it comes to finding your personal style, it's not just about clothes, but rather about how you feel about yourself...mostly attitude
Choose a fashion style that balances your inner and outer beauty!
 
Here are a few tips for finding 'your' style:
1.  Stay true to yourself! 
Choose a style that will flatter you and your body shape, not just what the magazine are telling you to wear!  Your should feel comfortable in what you wear, if you don't chances are it shows!
2.  Find a fashion muse! 
Search through magazines and find a celebrity or designer whose style you admire!  Now take that style and make it your own!  Even celebrities have a fashion muse-- Kim Kardashian has been quoted mentioning Jennifer Lopez as her style icon!
3.  Look at your closet and/or accessories! 
Looking at your accessories such as jewelry, handbags, and shoes is a great way to begin to understand your personal style.  Do you stick with more traditional, structured handbags?  or may more trendy, embelished jewelry??  These are all clues about your personal style!
4.  Look throught photo albums! 
Look at pictures of yourself to see what colors and looks are the most flattering on yourself..and which ones not so much :)
