The Hills

The Hills returned last week and will be back on again tonight with all the drama that surrounds the life of Lauren Conrad. I thought it would be good to remind readers of how well dressed these girls actually are both on and off the show.

Resort 2009... Dress Your Age (30s)

These are the pieces that I thought would best suit the 30-somethings out there. I think each piece is perfect for where ever you need to go - I've got them all here! I found myself drawn to Oscar de la Renta for the majority of my inspiration for these posts - especially for the 30-somethings post. At this age, it's important to remember your youthfulnees, yet begin wearing pieces that are more fitted and tailored to showing off your figure.

It's important to be taken seriously in every outfit you wear, and with these pieces, they are fun and ecclectic, yet are still perfect for transitional pieces. You can wear them to the office and then to happy hour at the pub across town. Or you can wear it to a luncheon and then out shopping. They are still young looking, but with a more serious point-of-view - which we can all use a little of in the corporate world these days.

Resort 2009... Dress Your Age (20's)

Abaete

I love the sections of magazines that tell you how to dress your age. And although I don't always fit in with my age group (I tend to like the clothes for the 30-somethings better), I still appreciate the effort. So, because of this I've decided to use the Resort 2009 collections for my research and put together a little grouping of clothing pieces for each age group (20's - 50's). I hope you enjoy!

For the 20-something's your clothing needs to be fun and daring. Don't be afraid of bright colors, fun skirt bottoms, and prints. You need to have a relaxed, but eccentric feel to your apparel. The items I picked for you can be worn to numerous events - beach nights, movie premieres, nights out with the girls, a day shopping, meeting the future in-laws, etc. Go out and be young!

I am in love with the dresses at BCBG right now. If only I could convince my boss that I need a raise to pay for all of these lovely dresses, skirts and jackets. Aren't they adorable? They also make the perfect combo for moving between work and drinks afterwards. And the last two dresses were just too yummy to pass up. How fun would they be?
