WWW: Who, What, Wear Spring/Summer Season- Tropical prints
Who: Phylece LaVally CEO & Co-Founder of Fee La Vee Botanicals
What: Tropical Print
Where: eShakti
We recently had a few 80 degree days in DC lately and it reminded me of the hot summer prints that I saw everywhere on the runways for this season. If you are trying to figure how to wear this trend then check out how Phylece is sporting this great trend:
- Stay Grounded- In order to not compete with the fabulous print opt for a neutral shoe.
- Simply Accessorize- Add simple accessories in a metallic or complementary color that won't compete with the print.
- Get Cozy- In order to stay warm, add a coverup or jacket in a shade that is pulled from the print. The similar color stream will help pull the outfit together.

50 Shades of Red
Hey Pretty Ladies! I have really been embracing the color and texture of my hair this year and as you can see I have red hair, and not just any red hair, I have 50 shades of red hair! From Strawberry Blonde to Rich Auburn, I choose colors that fit my mood and life. On any given day I could be running a 5k, giving a presentation, holding a lunch meet-up for co-workers, attending a PTA meeting and meeting with friends for drinks, and that is just in one day! My lifestyle is fun, ever changing and full so I need a hair color that keeps up with my vivacious lifestyle and constantly changing hair style and schedule. Currently, I have been coloring my hair with the Age Beautiful product above, which had been covering my grays pretty well however my hair grows really fast and although I fully embrace my gray hair and often allow it to grow out on purpose, sometimes I would like to touch it up for an important event or a meeting. That is when my coworker told me about I Madison Reed's root touch-up product.
She has tried many of the root touch-up products and loved them so I am excited to give it a try. When I try it I will let you know. Hair is the best and most natural accessory that we have in life. The way we wear and color our hair reflects how we feel inside. If you are thinking of changing your hair color check out this cool hair profile tool from Madison Reed to find your perfect hair dye color.
