Get Kate Hudson's Summer White Style

Kate Hudson does summer white better than anyone I've ever seen. White is obviously a staple in her wardrobe and she wears it really well. Whether she's pairing a boho dress with oversized bags and chunky shoes, mixing white ankle length jeans with a blazer, or rocking beachy linen pants and a cool cami, her look is always completely covetable.


I love this billowy white dress and sandals. She looks utterly cool and crisp.

Check out the pop of red from those heels.


Accessorizing with a tres chic scarf and nude wedges.


This is my fave. Super wide linen pants, beige cami and Wayfarers. She adds a hippie chick touch with the long beaded nacklace.

To stalk Kate's style, grab some of the white pieces below. Add thongs with chunky stones, nude wedges, long necklaces, a scarf, an oversized hobo, or a jaunty fedora for her Boho chic look.


Ella Moss Malea Dress $174


Juicy Couture Embroidered Linen Tank Dress $124.60

Blank Denim Cropped Skinny Jeans $75

Old Navy Wide Leg Linen Pants $29.50

Gap Sash Waist Tunic Dress $58

Again With the Victoria's Secret

A customer came in to our boutique this morning wearing a gorgeous velour track suit in a really cute dusty plum color. I complimented her on it and she mentioned that she gets the tracksuits at the Victoria's Secret website and that they are a great bargain and there are lots of pretty colors. So of course as soon as she left I hopped on my trusty laptop and launched the Victoria's Secret site. I found the track suits and that customer was right...They are a bargain and the colors are great.

The pants and hoodies run $60 for two, so each complete set is $60 plus shipping. And the colors are beautiful. My faves are the Walnut Heather, Eggplant, and Olive Drab. I could put one of these sets on with a pair of flats and be super comfy at work but not look too schleppy.
VS also has an adorable wide leg velour pant and a crop jacket in the same yummy colors at that great price.

I can't wait to try these on, because from the pictures the cuts are more forgiving than that of the Juicy sets.

A downside to shopping online with VS is their shipping rates. If you buy one of these sets shipping will be $11, if you buy two sets shipping will run about $16. Check out Retail Me Not, Deal News, and Coupon Cabin for discounts and possible free shipping codes.

Thank You Victoria's Secret

I remember when thong underwear were a total novelty. I thought to myself that I would NEVER wear underwear that were actually designed to go in the, ahem, interior area of the backside. It seemed as though if you had a wedgie, the underwear were doing their job.
But, as we all know, times have changed. Thong style panties are de rigueur. Women are no longer given a pass on VPL what with the advent of Spanx, low rise thongs, and other comfortable body shaping undergarments. So I, of course, have converted to thongs along with millions of others.

My favorite has long been the Victoria's Secret Pink Classic Thong.
They are very comfortable and have the cutest little designs. The drawback is that they peek out of the top of low waisted jeans. So I also have lots of the low rise basic thong from VS but I do not find them nearly as comfy.

But finally, VS has put out a low rise thong in the Pink line. They are calling it The Extreme Low Rider Thong. Woo Hoo! Comfort, cuteness and no whale tail. What more could a girl ask for?
And if you are looking for a great buy on undies, Bluefly has the Cosabella thongs priced $20 for a 2 pack. That's a pretty good deal, and if you can find a Bluefly coupon you will be doing even better.
