“Dresses too, in any shape or form. A dress is such an elegant look. There’s nothing more classic than a woman wearing a dress.”

Be Advised:

“Don’t make the mistake of trying too hard and following trends too closely. You’re better off to pick one trend and combine it with your classics. And even if you’re wearing something trendy you can still throw on a pearl necklace or bracelet to tone it down a bit.”

Spring/Summer Style Forecast:

“We’re seeing a ton of prints and florals for Spring. It’s all about prints—florals and any kind of patterns.
