Top Trends for Summer 2011

A note to my readers,
Out and About with Shasta will be making some changes.  I am moving to sunny Florida soon and I will continue my blog there.  I am planning to include features on FL night life, FL fashion and I plan to continue my ever popular Sex and the University articles.  Please keep reading!

XOXXO,
Shasta

Since I am moving to South West FL I need to vamp up my summer wardrobe!  Here's some key pieces for summer!
Romper!

I am loving the romper look for summer, dress it up with a blazer and heels for night time or pair with bangles and sandals for day.

This one is floral which is another huge trend for summer. 

Forever 21 $19.80










Embellished Thong Sandal!

This trend has been around for a while but I love that it has stuck.  These look great with the season's new colorful shorts or rompers.  I also love turquoise on shoes because it really goes with everything.

Michael Kors Pool Python Printed 'Cassia' thong sandal $357.00



Bright Colored Shorts!

I screamed out loud the other day when I saw the collection of bright colored shorts that J.Crew had displayed for Spring.  These fit great and are offered in so many different colors.  They look great with a skinny belt, v-neck tee and a cardigan.  My favorite is the shocking pink, which would look great paired with navy blue.

J.Crew 3" Chino Short in Shocking Pink $42.50



The Framed Satchel!

This style bag is all the rage right now.  If it is quilted and has a shoulder strap it's even better.  I love this one from Marc Jacobs because it's neutral in color which is another huge trend right now.

Wear this all summer long with casual and dressy.

Marc Jacobs 'Quilting Stam' Leather Satchel in Blush $1,350.00








  Wide Leg/Flare Trousers!

The part of me that is more comfortable in wide leg trousers loves that these have come back!  The part of me that has totally re-done my wardrobe to be wide-leg free hates that this has come back.  Either way it's a great look for work trousers.  Tuck in a button-up or dress down with a cotton v-neck.  These are Juicy Couture jeans, and surprisingly Juicy denim is ultra comfortable!  I own three pairs of Juicy jeans.

Bird by Juicy Couture 'Indigo' Flared Stretch Denim Trousers $228.00







Maxi Dress!

This is another trend that has been around for a while but has stuck.  I have a strapless black and white maxi dress and I wear it all the time in the summer.  I love to pair mine with embellished thong sandals and a jean jacket.  This is a trend I recommend to buy for less because there are some great deals out there and they look great too.

Target Mossimo Supply Co. Juniors Sleeveless Maxi Dress Pongee Tint $15.39
