Bring Back the 80's

Neon colors will make an electrifying statement this summer!  Get ready for hotter weather and brighter colors!  Neons remind me of the beloved 1980s, when MC Hammer rocked parachute pants and "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" was on repeat.  If solid neons are too much for you, try a printed piece that incorporates those fabulous highlighter colors.

Bliss just received a smocked, high-low tube dress that is perfect for any summer bash.  This 80's-inspired printed dress is easy to throw on over your bikini, and for only $31.99, you can look cute while busting out your best moves!  Accessorize with fun, neon statement jewelry and platform wedges! :)

Trend Alert: Turquoise!

It must be obvious that I am a huge fan of color!  Especially this season, pops of color are everywhere.  Turquoise has officially hit the shelves at Bliss!  I love wearing turquoise with citrus yellow, royal blue, or white.  Turquoise is a fun, bright color that allows you to express yourself with the clothes and accessories you decide to wear!

I absolutely adore this turquoise and gold bangle set that Bliss has for only $14.99.  This 15-piece set can be the perfect final touch for your Summer outfit!  Better yet, it even has a little bling in there! :)

Embrace the Lace

Hey Bliss Lovers!  One of my favorite styles this season is the collared, button-down tank top.  The simplicity allows you to wear it with just about anything... Jeans, shorts, or even a hot miniskirt!  I bet some heads will turn!

We just got in an adorable lace top that comes in beige and black!  The quality itself is excellent, even with such a dainty pattern.  It's even dressy enough for a dinner date!  This little number is only $21.99 at Bliss!  At that price, you can't go wrong! :)

#SlipperyHangerProblems

I don't know about you, but some of my tops love to slip off of my plastic hangers.  I seem to find a few empty hangers each week with the tops now at the bottom of my closet.  Thank you to Pinterest, I have found a solution to this ongoing problem.

Load up your hot glue gun, and in a zig-zag pattern, go back and forth from the bottom of the hanger to about halfway up.  This creates a grip for your top or dress so it won't slip any longer.  Hot glue dries pretty quickly so hang the hanger on a door handle, and in a couple minutes, it will be ready to hang back in your closet!


Hope this helps!  Stop by Bliss and see our lovely new merchandise!  So many cute new things! :)

Fresno State Fashion Show

This past Saturday, the Fashion Inc. Club at Fresno State held their 2nd annual fashion show.  I was one of 12 student designers and stylists chosen to show off my styles and/or designs.  All 9 of my looks came from Bliss Boutique and Bliss Shoes & Accessories, and I designed and handmade all of the jewelry!  Needless to say, it was a complete success!  Over 300 people attended, and the weather couldn't have been any better! :)

My inspiration for this fashion show was using bold, bright colors.  I love color blocking and having the perfect jewelry to match, so I made every necklace, bracelet, or earrings to match each individual look.  This was an amazing group of girls to work with!  I had tons of fun with them during the whole process!

Here are some pictures from this weekend!  As soon as I get action shots, I'll post those, as well!  All looks can be found at Bliss, and if a piece of jewelry catches your eye, I can customize it for you! :)
