BLUENOTES

On May 14th 2013, you should wear new jeans to celebrate and create awareness for the National Denim Day in support of the Cure Foundation to fight against breast cancer. Bluenotes will donate a portion of proceeds from each denim purchase nationwide from May 13 to May 19, 2013. Founded in 1996, the CURE Foundation has raised nearly $25 million, with National Denim Day as it’s largest initiative.

Bluenotes Spring/Summer collection has this season’s hottest denim trends from the oversized shorts, ombré shirts to the polka dot cropped skinny jeans, all available at crazy affordable prices.

Please feel free to click here to make a donation directly to The Cure Foundation and help ensure that not one life is lost to breast cancer due to a lack of funding.

Going out during the summer, even at night, can be hard to dress for due to the unbearable heat. I love the idea for foregoing pants, and rather keeping it short and sweet.

It’s insanely hot out – probably the hottest summer since my summers as a camp counsellor in Malibu California. Its bittersweet that my cut off shorts and DIY crafted tie dye tank tops are no longer the uniforms for my summer. Rather it’s really about silky shirts, A-line skirts, and great wedges.
Tips for the office: bra straps are not really okay, so if your outfit doesn’t allow you to wear an appropiate bra, you may want to rethink your outfit. Shorts are great, but always think about length. Women know when their skirts or dress are too short, but often feel they can pull off shorter shorts in the office. I would rather opt out of shorts for the office and stick with a skirt to be safe. Its easier to dress down a dress skirt then dress up (and stay in the work appropriate zone) a pair of shorts. Maxi dresses and skirts are a great options for a summer office wardrobe, but make sure they aren’t too long so you’re tripping all over it.
