White After Labor Day?

We all know that old saying, "No white after Labor Day," but is it still such a fashion faux pas in 2013?

White is quite possibly one of the best transitional colors from season to season.  Bright white may seem too summery for you, so substitute your white pieces with cream or ivory ones.  Don't be afraid to still integrate all of your favorite white items into your looks.

I think this fashion "no-no" is quite outdated, and just like I always say, "Every day is a day after Labor Day" so feel free to wear all the white you want!

Pretty in Purple

School is right around the corner, and we all know what that means... Back to school shopping!  Bliss has your favorite styles and trends to really impress your classmates this year!

TREND ALERT: Palazzo Pants!

Palazzo pants are everything this summer!  These wide-legged and lightweight pants will keep you cool (and fashionable) on those hot summer days.  This new trend balances your curves, in which they especially help flatter those of us with wider hips.  Just like maxi skirts, Palazzo pants are easy to slip on and leave the house in!

Fitted tops, or a looser style top tucked into your Palazzos makes you look thin, tall, and totally chic!  Try a pair that just skims the floor with your wedges or heels on.  Don't forget to coordinate your jewelry and handbag when you go out! :)

Look elegant and feminine in these Palazzo pants at Bliss!  Prices range from $29.99 to $31.99, and we have a couple prints to choose from!  Order yours today on any of our 3 websites!

Loving Lula!

Simple ballet flats have to be one of my all-time favorite fashion pieces.  They are perfect for the office or a casual dinner date.  This dainty and feminine style looks great with denim or colored skinnies.

Lula has arrived at Bliss and is such a cute twist to a ballet flat!  The ankle strap secures the back of your foot so you don't keep slipping out of your shoe!  The quilted inside is super comfy and soft on your feet so you can wear them all day!

Stop by Bliss Boutique or order yours today by calling us at (559) 322-5477!  Lula is only $24.99, and ground shipping is just $7!

I am totally eye-balling these bright geometric belted shorts at Bliss!  I absolutely love the mix of colors and the fun geometric pattern.  Tuck in a coordinating solid-color tank top to make your look really pop!  These shorts come with a skinny black belt, which helps accentuate your waist to make it look super tiny!  Accessorize with a chunky statement necklace to really "wow" your friends!

Grab these goodies at Bliss for $27.99!  Don't wait around... I know these won't be in stock for long! :)

DIY: Festive for the 4th!

As someone who loves expressing my creativity, holidays seem like the perfect time to try out DIY projects I've seen throughout the year.  Being original and unique reveals your individuality, and I personally always appreciate a DIY project gone right.

I found this amazing DIY video to help you create some fabulous & festive dip dye shorts for the 4th of July.  Click the YouTube video below for this top-notch tutorial!  You can also see my attempt on these bad boys (and some helpful tips)!  Good luck ladies!

xoxo, Ali

What You'll Need:
- White shorts
- 2 buckets/trays
- Rit Liquid Dye (Cherry Red & Aquamarine - found at your local craft store)
- Salt
- Ziploc bag
- 2 large rubberbands
- A pair of gloves
- Star studs (I bought a pack of 50 1" silver star studs on Kit Kraft - SUPER speedy shipping if you're in California!)
- Scissors



My Tips:
- Once your shorts are completely dry, machine wash cold SEPARATELY!  The red may bleed a little in the wash, but try your best to rinse out all of the dye before hanging to dry.

- When studding your shorts, lay your pattern out before poking through.  Since the studs I purchased had prongs on the back, I recommend going in a circle with your scissors and using the side of the scissors to push the prongs down.  Run your finger over the prongs to make sure nothing is poking.  That would be painful! :)

- Always check for coupons at your local craft stores!  They may even have an app for your phone to redeem at checkout.  I love saving money, and I know you do, too! :)
