This week, Fashion Magazine asked their style panel how to wear silk during the hot summer months. Silk, while it’s very breathable, also allows for sweat to leave some embarrassing pit-stains 
which could be problematic on hot days. But, with help from a good antiperspirant (I love this one from Dove) I spend my summers sweat-free in luxurious silks! Here is how I told Fashion to style them.
This dress is clearly one of my favourites, seen here and here in each Spring/Summer season.
This summer season is truly about colour, as the gardens are in full bloom and the days seem to last forever. This season’s bright colours influenced the newest collection of Derek Cardigan frames available at Clearly Contacts. Available in the classic 7003 frame in fluoro fuchsia, blue, purple, and an amazing neon green that will turn heads! So far I’ve loved every look I’ve styled these frames with, and they are quickly becoming my favourite accessory of the season.

Having a style blog and a keen eye for fashion I’ve developed my own personal style that is consistently changing. Along with each season’s trends, I adapt them each season to suit my style, which is typically filled with bright colours, bold patterns, and unique and timeless jewellery.
When making investments into jewellery, my theory has always been to ensure that the pieces mean something to you. I grew up wearing my birthstones, pearls, and have always been attracted to pearls designed into jewellery in really unique ways. For the past 4 years I’ve been wearing this pearl and happy-face bracelet by Nektar De Stagni everyday. For me it symbolizes my past and reminds me to be grateful and stay happy.
I just added my newest personalized piece of jewellery from Jewlr. This beautiful necklace makes getting the perfect piece of personalized jewellery super easy with both real and synthetic colourful stones or Swarovksi Zirconia crystals to choose from, and everything from silver to rose gold in metal choices, and the options to personalize it more with engravings. I’ve always wanted a name necklace and am thrilled to add more typography to my collection of one-of-a-kind pieces.

The weekends during the fall are a great time to get outside and explore the parts of the city that you didn’t get to this summer. With the nights getting colder, we can already feel the dreaded winter ahead, so take every opportunity to get out and see the city. Where are you going to go?
As we explore the city during the fall it’s also a great time to explore new trends that you wouldn’t necessarily expect for the fall. This season is all about the unexpected. WIth pastels, florals, boudoir styling mixed with punk, fur textures and leathers this season really anything goes.

When times are hard, I’ve always said that wearing something bright can cheer people up, or at least break the ice. Interesting outfits can spark conversations. Try to cheer up the room next time your office is stressed at crunch time!
