Hottest Summer Hairstyles
Written by Jara Negrin and Amy Nebens   

hottest-summer-hairstylesForget your statement necklace, leopard flats, or bold new bag…your hair is your ultimate accessory.

So here at the StyleList we keep our locks and yours on trend always, because no outfit is complete without the perfect waves or chic bun. This week we've got some of the hottest hairstyles, haircuts, and colors of the season because you can't strut your stuff in the office or at the grocery store with a boring undone 'do.

five-trendy-gifts-for-mothers-dayHappy May fashionable mamas!  Mother's Day is around the corner and instead of buying the same drab old candle, bracelet charms, or gift cards (boring!) why not give your mom, sis or bestie a gift that will instantly add a spring to her Spring fashion?  We know moms always put everyone before themselves, which means lots of sacrificing and unfortunately sometimes their closets get sacrificed as well.

Well, lucky for us, taking care of our planet just got more fun and all you have to do is read on for this month's StyleList to get in on it all.

fun-with-fashion-in-2012Happy 2012 Fashionistas! A new year always brings lots of resolutions. Here at the StyleList, we think 2012 should be about fun--especially when it comes to clothes.

Great Gifts For Everyone
Written by Jara Negrin and Amy Nebens   

great-gifts-for-everyoneIt’s already mid December and you could not be more jealous of Ol’ Saint Nick, and it’s not because of his killer suit (no one else could pull off red velvet)—he knows what everyone wants for Christmas, plus he has loads of help! Meanwhile your Xmas or Chanukah list is not getting smaller, and it’s putting a damper on your merriness since you’re stressed and exhausted at the thought of finding those remaining great gifts for the most difficult recipients.

Like the people you have to buy for but are not particularly close with: co-workers, teachers, the in-laws (you know it’s true). You’re just about to give up and pick up a stack of gift cards that clearly say, “I really didn’t know what to buy for you.” No more pondering necessary. The StyleList is here to jumpstart your holiday spirit and have you wrapping those fabulous gifts just in time to light the Menorah.

The StyleList: Boots Edition
Written by Jara Negrin and Amy Nebens   

boots-editionAs far as shoes go, boots are under appreciated on the style scale—just think of that old familiar song, These Boots are Made for Walkin’. Well here at the The StyleList we think your boots should do a whole lot more for you. So this month’s blog is all about boots. Boots for the fall and winter seasons, and some you can strut around in during the spring. No matter if there are leaves on the ground or snow-filled streets, all ten of your toes will be warm, dry, and stylish of course! Even better, we’re including boots for your guys and kids too.

Welcome to The StyleList
Written by Jara Negrin and Amy Nebens   

welcome-to-the-stylelist-2As a Mom, your life is all about your family and you’re always on the move, making it difficult to find time for your things, like a workout (let alone a cute gym outfit to sport to it). And if you (hopefully) fit in that shower,  you need to plan a stylish ensemble for the day. The StyleList will instruct you on exactly what to take out of your closet and what is missing altogether (did someone say “shopping excuse?"). Maybe leggings, tees, and sweats have become your go-to wardrobe, but your panache (or lack there of) shouldn’t have to suffer any longer. A blouse and pair of jeans takes the same amount of time to throw on as those dreaded sweat pants—and if you know which ones to pair together, it’s that much easier.
