“the girls”

Reese Witherspoon c/o cdn.babble.com; Cameron Diaz c/o coolhitmusic.blogspot.com


Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz are both fans of THE GIRLS apparel, both wearing Tummy Control Capri Pants (style #7079) above. The $everyday workout leggings retail for ~$30. Favorite to Katie Holmes, Nicole Richie, Kate Hudson, Amanda Seyfried, Emma Roberts, Lauren Conrad, Whitney Port, Ashley Tisdale, and Amy Adams – it’s no surprise these crops are a BEST seller. Their snugging (not spreading) material keep your wobbly bits in place, so you can wear them before and after the gym… and anywhere your day takes you.

Reese rocked hers on the West Coast – choosing a navy hoodie and yellow retro Ray-Bans – while Cam went for a navy and red training jacket, accompanied by the most powerful accessory of all… boyfriend, New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez (not shown).

Water bottles in tow, both blondes remind us to stay hydrated. Thanks ladies, or should I say “girls”.

 

May’s monogrammed must-haves


LL Bean Tote necklace Charm towels J Crew Bikini stationary candles monogram earrings sunglasses ring

10 – monogrammed tote - L.L. Bean is just one of the many retailers who make great canvas tote bags, the finishing touch – your initials or name! They’re a great gift – I like to gift Mrs. plus their new surname to my girlfriends getting married. Reese Witherspoon (the new Mrs. Toth) is a fan, and so am I. These roomy personalized bags are the epitome of fashion meeting function. Making a personalized statement, they’ll take you from the beach to the gym with you life in tow.

9 – initial necklace – whether you go for a initial (or name) plate like Jennifer Zeuner’s Three Initial Pendant Necklace, you can’t go wrong with this signature piece. I first fell for this style when Lauren Conrad wore hers on “The Hills” a few years ago, and with Taylor Swift also donning her letters – it still tops my wish list. This also makes a GREAT gift, I have a very happy best friend (and a generous mother-in-law) to prove it. And for those looking for a smaller plate, you can take a play from Carrie Bradshaw in “Sex and The City” with her infamous “Carrie” necklace. Single (double, triple) letters, crests and charms also work. If it’s good enough for Blake Lively

8 – initial charm – Tiffany & Co’s initial charms work on necklaces, bracelets, anklets and more (and they come in silver, yellow and rose gold). I wear my “K” on a Links of London (sweetie) bracelet, layered with my black and copper Friendship Bracelet. More mature than the Tiffany & Co heart charm many of us grew up wearing, yet still versatile enough you can wear it every day.

7 – monogrammed towels - Ralph Lauren offers customizable bath-wear. Dry off in style.

6 – initialed bikini bottoms - J.Crew allows you to monogram your beach bottoms. Subtle, sexy!!

5 – personalized stationary - I’m a stationary addict. I love great cards and paper. There’s nothing more classy then receiving a note, thank you, or invitation from someone on their monogrammed note cards and paper. The options are endless, but I love classic initials. Send your own mark.

4 – signature candles – use initial candles to lighten up your home and your life. Smells good!

3 – initial earrings – Sarah Chloe monogrammed earrings are a great reprieve from your daily pearl and diamond studs. I love them equally in silver, yellow and rose gold. Such great go-to that can take you from day to night InStyle (as seen in). Literally.

2 – customizable sunglasses - Prada recently came out with customizable Prada Private sunglasses. We’re constantly seeing label-covered glasses, why not wear your own logo with pride.

1 – initial ring - Jennifer Kaufman’s three initial gold ring has been on my wish list for two years. Make any woman in your life glow with this as a gift, or treat yourself for a commemorative piece that you’ll LOVE forever. The initials are subtle, but the size of the ring is all STATEMENT.

 

Because sometimes signature style, requires some signature pieces. Enjoy!! “KD”

Trend Alert: CUFF yourself

our fav celeb gurus & icons are cuffing their denim – a look that works all-year, day or night.

Are you cuffing (aka rolling) your jeans yet?? It’s an instant update that can show off your sexy shoes (legs and ankles!), and keep you up to speed with our favorites starlets, gurus and icons.

Katie Holmes is responsible for starting the “boyfriend-jean” phenomenon in 2009 – and style gurus Rachel Bilson and Reese Witherspoon have helped kept it going strong to date. In the pictures above, Rachel’s opted to pair her loose-fitting bfs with cognac ballerinas (and her straw Chanel tote from the Spring/Summer 2010 Collection). Cameron’s rocking one small subtle cuff on her distressed boot-cut jeans, exposing killer heels. We’re also seeing slimmer (not-quite-boyfriend) styles like Kelly Ripa’s rolled at the ankle, showing off killer heels of her own. Reese opts for a relaxed (yet-not-baggy) boyfriend-style jean with thin circular rolls stopping just above her casual flips; and Halle goes big with overstated large cuff-rolls on her very-baggy medium-wash boyfriends. Even little Nahla is sporting big cuffs of her own.

Boyfriend jeans are a trend like UGGs that aren’t necessarily attractive (most men don’t like either) – but their practicality and sheer comfort win out, and they catch-on like wildfire. So whether you go for baggy, relaxed, boot-cut, slim, or skinny jeans: it’s time to get your cuff on.
