Over the weekend, I had the honor of experiencing the latest trends from the Simon Fashion Now® event at the Westchester Mall in White Plains, NY.  The event is a series of energetic fashion shows and interactive entertainment and the Westchester Mall was the first stop of a national tour.  Spotlighting up-to-the-minute looks for spring from more than 40 fashionable retailers at The Westchester, Simon Fashion Now® is a vibrant mix of accessible, luxurious and affordable style for men, women and children that provides shoppers the ability to purchase straight from the runway.  Each event offers advice and insight into the newest beauty trends, must-have accessories and fashionable flair available at select Simon properties.

This spring, Simon Fashion Now® will also visit King of Prussia Mall in King of Prussia, PA, on April 19 and 20, and Lenox Square in Atlanta, GA, on April 26 and 27.  All events are free and open to the public.

Here are a few shots from the Nordstrom Runway  Fashion Show. Filled with stripes, polka-dots and leather shorts made this fashionista droll with excitement.  Gotta have it all!

Check out my look after the jump!  Can you tell how much I LOVE color!

Today, I am honoring the colorfiul collection of the late Lilly Pulitzer (1931-2013).  Lilly Pulitzer Spring collection is killing it with mod style, florals, printed jeans, and perfectly structured handbags. And if that wasn’t enough add a few colorful accessories from the Stella & Dot collection to complete the look.

denizen-revised-logoTrying to squirm and wiggle myself into a pair of jeans after giving birth less than two months ago seems like a daunting task, so when I was offered to try on a pair of dENiZEN® jeans for the Levi’s® brand for review you could understand my hesitaton, but what had left me intrigued was when I had learned that these are not just your typical pair of jeans, but an award coveted pair of jeans, favored by People StyleWatch in the “Best Jeans Under $50” category!

dENizEN is sold exclusively at Target and on Target.com, and are priced at under $30. And knowing that the dENiZEN brand is made by Levi Strauss & Co., there is no question when it comes to the strength, style and durability of these jeans.

I received the new denim collection just in time for the Spring/Summer season: ankle skinny and mid rise skinny for review. When I took them out of the package, I was immediatly impressed with the quality and dark color of the jeans, which gives the illusion of the “skinny”…just what this post pregnancy body needs.

In all honesty, I had never owned, let alone tried on a pair of ankle jeans for the fear of looking like “Steve Erkel”, but to my surprise it was just too cute for words, especially when I had paired it with my new leopard oxford shoes from The Gap, I felt right on trend.

The stretchy material hugged my curves in all the right places and the color for sure gave me the illusion of skinny.

Next up was the mid-rise skinny pair and they felt even better.  Although, it had fit an inch or so below my belly button, to my surprise there was no “muffin top” or visibility of my undergarment when I had bent down. Say no to crack, I like to say.   And again it looked great with my new oxford shoes.  Goes to show that you can rock these jeans with a great heel, flat or even a wedge and you will be on trend.

So I believe that my hunt for the perfect pair of jeans is now over…not only is it affordable, but the fit is great.  I will definitely be wearing them often.

dENIZEN brand jeans are available exclusively at Target. The retail price is $24.99-$27.99 for women, $22.99-$29.99 for men and $17.99-$19.99 for kids, which I feel is very affordable.

When it comes to comfort the dENIZEN jeans are quite comfortable. The material is thin and soft, and not stiff at all like some jeans can be. Now that Spring has arrived, these jeans are great for this type of weather.

So all in all, the verdict is that these jeans are:  breathable, comfortable, sexy and I give it a two thumbs!
