Navy could be the New You!

Always a fan of 'Navy' I am pleased to see the comeback of all shades of blue this spring. Navy, Royal Blue and Periwinkle have been strong colours choices for Spring 2012 as well :)

I often get asked "what do I wear with navy" and the answer is almost everything goes with navy. Even black works well with navy with the exception of very dark navy that appears to the eye to be black. This often simply looks like you miss-matched.Choosing basics that are in any shade of navy can become a platform for some fun and interesting combinations.

Navy teamed up with neutral shades of oatmeal, taupe and grey work wonderfully as do all shades of berry & purple and our favorite basic black. The dress above (Silk Chiffon by Cassie Dee) is the dress I am wearing next week at my son's wedding. I have chosen to team it up with blush shoes, floral wrap scarf with pink, mauve, black and shades of blue and the addition of a black silk purse with a mauve and blush flower pin.

Go Sleeveless with a little help from Earmella!

Dont over look the endless possibilities of a simple sheath dress or bamboo/blend frock that can become the canvas for a multitude of looks and for the day you want to look amaizing look to the Earmella to do the trick.

Sleeveless dresses allow the most flexibility for creating several looks from the same garment. Look for a jacket, sweater and wrap to compliment the dress for endless possibilities.

'Earmella' is the cretaceous of Vancouver Designer Jeeti Pooni. Her line "To Desire" consists of an array of silk wraps and cover ups. The Earmella is a one armed wrap that drapes elegantly over the shoulders and stays put. It's the perfect accessory for a cocktail party!
