FASHION: THE color of Spring 2012 – Yellow

admin — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 20:08:30 +0000

Bold colors are hot this season but the color in the spotlight is yellow. It’s everywhere this Spring! I often have clients during style consultations tell me that yellow is a “hard color to pull off” but after a personal shopping appointment with LIVE-COUTURE their tunes nearly always change. Next time you’re in the fitting room, try on a piece. You may be surprised at how delightful it looks on you.

FASHION: Travel – Acapulco at Las Brisas La Concha

Squeezed away for a weekend getaway to Acapulco and spent the day at the beautiful exclusive private club La Concha. The setting was stunning but what I loved most was the overall relaxing vibe. Upon walking onto the property there was a light breeze and “the girl from ipanema” was playing in the background. It was a perfect day.

FASHION: Backstage & Onstage

I was beyond thrilled with how the models looked in their head-to-toe styled looks. So glamorous. Between the hair & makeup by Fresh Beauty Studio and wardrobe styling by LIVE-COUTURE the looks were perfection. Dressing clients for special occasions such as black tie galas & weddings is something LC specializes in and this is a great representation of what we do.
