Flower Power

Summer is finally here! In celebration, this week is all about dressing super fun, ultra flirty and, of course, totally flowery. This cutesy coral Crinkled Ruffle Sleeve dress from Thread Social matched with these sassy Kerrington ballet flats from J.Crew creates a playful (and perfect!) look for a warm summer day. Even better? Add some gold charm!-- We especially love the gold pinwheel necklaces from stone&honey as well as the Garden Grove Lauralee purse from Kate Spade. Adorable!

Katorey Swimwear at Spring on the Runway!

I am so very excited about having the Katorey Swimwear line at Spring on the Runway! The designs are so fun and fresh. I'm pretty much obsessed with most of these styles. On top of that, the price points will leave you wanting many more than one!

Spring on the Runway will be showcasing Katorey Swimwear on the runway on June 27th t the Ainsley House in Campbell. Check out the events page for all the details, and to purchase tickets! Katorey Swimwear will definitely be available for purchase after the show! :)

See you there!

Please note that this event is cash/check preferred!

Urban Chic

This week, we have found an edgy look that is more than perfect for a classy night on the town. A trendy striped Gaga-esque Sandro dress paired with daring Alexander McQueen pumps (with a pop of that lovely neon yellow!) creates a sexy/chic get-up for any gathering. The outfit is totally complete when topped with a small leather jacket and big piece of jewelry (like these luscious gems from Madewell).

Patio Party and a New Perpective!

This summer you will be massive changes made to Aspiring Couture. We are working to make Aspiring Couture a better experience for you fashionistas! Up until now, you have heard my perspective on fashion, emerging designers, and all those pretty pretty things that inspire us all. Now we are going to add yet another fashionista to our aspiring-fashion island to share the tidbits, ideas and inspiration of the fashion world!

Introducing Lauren Gantner! She will be here making the Aspiring Couture blog burst at the seams with inspiration, lovely new finds, etc.  And without further ado, let's hear from her:

This summer is all about picnics and patio parties! This week, host your own backyard shindig with the perfect patio wear for this season, including some pretty Kate Spade swag mixed with a batch of tasty jelly flip-flops.

Delectibly White

Do you like this little number?? I most definitely do...which is a good thing for me seeing as I just WON IT!!!! Yep, I did :)

Thanks to a boutiquing.com contest that I just so happened to be a part of. I just saw my name along with 5 others as their status update and without knowing what I was going to be winning, I commented so that I would be firsties! And I was :)

Anyways, me and my delectable white dress (which happens to be just in time for summer..and I have been looking everywhere for summer dresses!) will be trotting around soon enough attached at the hip....literally!

Oh and the best part...this is no cheapo dress-this is like full high class with a hefty price tag.

Thanks so much Erin and April from boutiquing.com :)
