Swimsuit Mania!

It officially hit 112 degrees yesterday in Arizona; so I thought today would be a great day to talk about swimsuit looks for the summer (since us Arizonan’s will either be inside in the air condition or in the pool).

Some of my clients ask me if they find a swimsuit they love…if they can wear it for seasons to come. I tell them that swimsuits are a lot like clothes; if it’s in season, “wear it” but if it’s not in season, “toss it.”

Let’s start with the mismatched bathing suit! This look is great for women with small torso’s that want to look like they have an elongated torso. The color combo is a great way to do that!

Black and sleek is the best way to describe this suit! I love the mesh on the shoulders and how it shows off her curves! This is like a little black dress…every women should own a black suit.

I love this pin-up suit look and the color is a perfect match! This summer you will see a lot of yellow in different shades/ombre effect.

This last swimsuit I just bought from Nordstrom and I love it! I have always wanted to own a nude suit because I can accent it with gold sandals and a gold hat. Or if you don’t like gold you can choose a bright and vivid color, like turquoise or fuchsia.

Have an amazing weekend ladies!

Style on!

Mirrored Effect Print….

This past weekend I was on a mission to find dark denim high-waist shorts…but of course when I am looking for something, I find and WANT everything else but what I am actually looking for. So while shopping I found this mirrored effect floral printed dress at Forever 21. This new print is on trend and will continue to be well into Fall. I am even starting to see this “mirrored effect,” in swimsuits too!

I love this cut and fit because I can wear it with a blazer for work and take off the blazer for happy hour or a date night. If you are an online shopper and want to purchase this dress make sure to buy a size larger than you would usually be because it runs a bit snug.

I Love What I Do! <3

I had the privilege of working with a women that just graduated from Arizona State University, that is a complete doll to work with! She came to me looking for a graduation outfit and we ended up finding so much more! I wanted to share what she sent me along with the looks we purchased during our shopping spree. I completely LOVE what I do and I love working with people!

“My shopping adventure with Rochelle was such a wonderful experience. She made shopping for my special occasion so fun and stress free. Rochelle listened to me and answered all of my questions about my own personal style and the look that I was going for. I felt beautiful and confident and I received so many compliments everywhere I went. Rochelle is such a positive and uplifting person. She really cares and takes the time to listen to the people that she comes in contact with. She has the unique ability to take a simple piece of clothing and turn it into something fabulous. Rochelle’s dedication, creativity, and love for fashion and the people that she works with, are what make her and the service that she offers so special. I highly recommend Rochelle’s styling services for any and all occasions.”

Her boutique has a wide variety of local designer collections that I will be using in the show! Kim and I went over prints and colors that would coordinate well with the idea I was shooting for in my head.

This past Wednesday I was interviewed by Lauren Pfingstag, with Phoenix Fashion Week for the show, I was asked about the collection, what my inspirations were behind my looks and what to expect on the runway! Above, is the outfit I wore for the interview and below is where I bought my pieces from!

Holiday Party Fun!

The holiday season always reminds me of prom because I get to dress up and get my makeup done for all of the fun holiday parties! So on my adventure looking for a holiday dress, I was unpleasantly surprised that there was not a large selection this year. I went to at least 4 stores until I gave up and I decided to call one of my girlfriends to come to my rescue. I went through her closet and ended up finding a beautiful Gold Sequined French Connection Dress that was perfect for the occasion!

So this is an amazing tip ladies…when in doubt; go through a friends closet to find something that works perfectly because A. You have not wore it before and B. This means you can spend more money on shoes and accessories because you didn’t have to buy a dress. 🙂 My earrings are from Guess By Marciano www.guessbymarciano.com, bag is from Michael Kors www.michaelkors.com and my shoes are from Charlotte Russe wwww.charlotterusse.com.

This year I had the pleasure of attending the Go Daddy Christmas Party; which if I had to describe in one word would be, “awesome.” The moment we walked in, there were lights beaming in all colors, a live band playing every type of music, as well as an ice sculpture being cut with a chainsaw to make the Go Daddy logo……and if that wasn’t enough to take in; there were amazing food stands of all sorts surrounding the dance floor and arcade games. We also hung out at the Oxygen bar to sample some fresh mint air!
