Sorel for Spring 2016

by

I know that Sorel is traditionally equated with cold weather footwear, but the time has come for the perception to shift toward thinking of the brand in the warmer months, as Sorel has steadily, sturdily placed its feet in all seasons.  Its latest spring 2016 collection makes it quite evident that style, function, and comfort are an integral part of its DNA, no matter when, or where, you wear Sorel shoes.

Now that the spring lineup is available you can easily see, and purchase the range of silhouettes that move from office-appropriate oxfords and wedding-worthy wedges to swiftly navigating the downtown of your vacation spot in sneakers and making a casual yet sophisticated appearance at an al-fresco dining establishment in slide sandals.

It just makes sense to keep a favorite footwear brand top-of-mind year ’round, while looking effortlessly cool in the process. Click on the slide show above for my top picks from the collection, and head to Sorel.com to shop the new spring arrivals.

[Indoor/Outdoor Lumbar Pillows, $24.99 each ]

For the past few years, I’ve made a huge effort to avoid sample sales, no matter how sweet of a deal there seems to be up for grabs, with the exception of one brand: Marimekko. I first discovered the brand on a trip to Switzerland while studying abroad in the early 2000s, and since then, I have been smitten with its signature prints, guaranteed to induce smiles and great style. A few seasons ago I was lucky enough to work with the brand during New York Fashion Week and wear some of its upcoming designs, and I’m so excited that I can now afford to acquire a few pieces into my wardrobe for good, thanks to the Marimekko for Target collection.

What you can expect are over 200 pieces, with most of them coming in at under $50, with a focus on a summer/outdoor motif (the total price range is from $7.99-$499.99). Although I’m fixated on the women’s clothing, you can also shop an array of décor, furniture, entertaining essentials and apparel and accessories for girls.  Marimekko for Target will be sold in all Target stores and on Target.com beginning April 17th, and my only question is: how early can I get up on that day to snap up pretty much…everything?

See the slideshow above for my top Marimekko for Target picks, across all categories offered.

Ouidad (The Curl Experts) Launches its New Curl Immersion Collection

by

Ouidad

Whether your curl type is loose, classic, tight or kinky, the Queen of Curls, Ouidad, has a product tailored to you. The new Curl Immersion Collection is designed specifically for kinky curls. It brings consumers with this curl type a unique and luxurious salon line featuring lovely natural ingredients such as grapeseed, coconut, rosemary and sage oils. Not only does the collection consist of five products plus a travel set, but it is also complemented by the 3-step Express Hydration Treatment Service offered at Ouidad’s flagship salons.

While kinky curls aren’t exclusive to one ethnicity, the demand for styling products for this hair type is increasing as more African American women continue to embrace their curls. Ouidad’s distinctive blend of breathable, water-soluble, and plant-based ingredients will deliver moisture to the internal layers of your hair and add beautiful definition to your curl. If your goal is to understand, enhance, and properly care for your curly tresses, look out for The Curl Immersion Collection that will be available beginning June 2016.
