Dressing Up With Joy: Avon

June 21, 2013

Lookbook: Ocean Blue And Sunlight Yellow

Summer is finally here! I say finally, because coming Monday is the last day of school for Mili and now I really, truly, thoroughly need to organize my schedule to fit in blogging and her TOTALLY CLEAR calender in my day! We have some really great activities planned for her during Summer - a playacting/theater workshop, tennis along with her ongoing music/piano lessons. This means I have to be on my A game to keep up with the crazy pick up/drop off schedule, think of new ways to entertain her and keep her busy when school is out and of course blog regularly and catch up with all of you on social media! Mama needs the boost of energy ya'll! I think a vibrant outfit with colors reminiscent of a beach vacation is the very thing I need to feel cool, calm and rejuvenated! This turquoise dress from Fresh Produce Clothing fits the bill perfectly!

Necklace - c/o INPINK, similar one layer option from Max & Chloe here

I love the asymmetric hem and the cute little ruffle at the bottom!For those of you who don;t know, Fresh Produce is a lifestyle brand with amazing clothes and accessories for women and kids.

Step Into Spring: Easy Weekend Dressing With Avon

Today I am collaborating with Avon to bring to you the spring wardrobe staples. I have to admit, when I think of Avon, the first things that come to mind are cosmetics and skin and hair care products! But Avon have a great selection of apparel and shoes (almost all items are under $50!!) that can enrich any wardrobe, all year round. As spring is finally here (yay! for the 70 degrees in New York!!), it is time say goodbye to winter blues and embrace the cheerful colors of Spring/Summer and Avon is here to help you pick out your Spring essentials and get ready for weekend, work or a party!

The cap toes shoes have been a big trend lately and these stylish and super comfortable cushioned flats in bright ocean colors are a treat to the soles!

A wardrobe staple – the chambray shirt – is oh so chic this season paired with leggings for the weekend or a pencil skirt for the office! Layer it with a trench and you can take this versatile piece well into fall! For just $24.99, this Avon chambray shirt is a steal! I love the length of it as I can tuck it in with a skirt or belt it up over leggings or skinny jeans.
