Summer is all about feeling the ERGE



ERGE Designs Summer 2010 Collection of amazing Tees, Dresses, Tops, Scarfs is the ultimate must-have for summer. With a celebrity following from Jennifer Aniston to Leighton Meester, these fabulous pieces are all made in the USA of the softest lightweight cotton. I absolutely love the versatility of this line, especially the longer length t-shirts (tunics) which can work as Beach Cover-ups , or can be paired with leggings . I am also a fan of the sheer tees that have graphic prints - they're great with denim. There is even a lot of Halston Heritage-esque pieces as well (for those who can't afford the Halston price tag, ERGE is definitely the solution) , that work well for nighttime looks. Whatever your style is , I am more than certain ERGE has something for you! Check out ERGE Designs to shop online , as well as to view the entire collection!

Summer Looks to Take You From Day to Night


Beach


Day




Night


During the summer we usually get into a routine of things - as we do with all seasons,but summer always has a special feeling. There is three specific Summer Dresses you need - one for the beach ( cover up), the day out on the town / or for while at work, and my personal favorite : night. For Beach, Bandeau top dresses (as the yellow number pictured above) are ideal the ideal dress style, for starters they eliminate the harsh nasty tan lines that straps would create , and another great point is that its easy to slip off for a summer dip in the pool , or to get the full tan experience ( just don't forget your SPF!!!!). For Day something a bit more prettier and structured is best, because you're not lounging by the pool or local beachfront bar. I love a dress with a a delicate neckline ( as the pretty dress pictured , middle), and this dress would look amazing with a belt cinched at the waist to take it up a notch. For Night, something with fun pretty prints along with bright energetic colors is a great choice. So remember for summer ,for dresses your must have options in your wardrobe are Beach,Day,and Night , and you're all set!

Play it up with Playsuits !!!!



It's officially Summer , so you have a seal of approval to play with shorter hemlines. Whats the best option of clothing to do that with ?? One might ask, its simple - short shorts! Not just any pair of shorts though, instead why not take it up a notch and combine the look of fabulous jumpsuits with red-hot shorts - and what is the result?? Playsuits! As seen all over Hollywood and along the streets of all the Fashion Forward cities (New York, Los Angeles, Miami, etc...) - these are great for day or night, and a fun way to transition into the summer season. For Day - terrycloth, cotton, gingham print, floral prints along with linen would be ideal. For Night - textiles like Silk and Satin are ideal, they can be paired with great accessories to really achieve the ultimate night on the town look. The addition of ruffles (like the playsuit pictured above) intensify the femininity to this style that is already very structured, but the ruffles soften the look in volumes. Embellishments ( studs, grommets, sequins etc..) are also all over the place from shoes, handbags, dresses and denim. Now they've found their way on playsuits as well (pictured above top) - this satin playsuit with studs is like a marriage between Edgy and Pretty , which we are all having fun with right now. Whether you want to play it up in the day or in the night, there is a playsuit to suit your style.
