Ask LaureNicole: Mother May I Monday

Happy Monday!!
It's Mother May I Monday

We're starting something new, I have had tons of questions about what to wear and what NOT to wear..

So, its time we take care of it!

On Mondays, I will take the time to answer those questions. You can submit any question anonymously or give your name, whatever makes you fill comfortable and out of those FASHION DON'TS!!

We'll also discuss things you see on the street, so get out those camera phones and start snapping (DO NOT VIOLATE!!!).

All week you can send your questions and pictures to Lnicole.designer@gmail.com and on Mother May I Monday we'll get down to business.

Don't be afraid to ask!! My grandmother always said a closed mouth doesn't get fed.. In this case it won't be clothed... Properly!

Have a great & marvelous Monday! (couldn't think of a "M" fashion word!!)

Get your pen & pad...LaureNicole's Fashion Update!

Hey boys and girls!

I want to give you a few tips that will help on your outlook on fashion..

Here's the first step!
Even if you stay at home, make an effort to get dress everyday as if you're going out. This changes your whole approach, you don't have to put on your freak 'em dress or a tux but get dress!!

You will find you have a more positive attitude and less inclined to grab those sweat pants and that baggy T-shirt. And FYI house shoes are made for the HOUSE not quick trips to the grocery store.

Secondly, treat your wardrobe as an investment. Fill your closet with must haves NOT make dos! The make do's end up sitting in the closet FOREVER creating clutter!! And if you're following my blog you know we're working on closet clutter! SO CATCH UP!

Lastly, get to know your body shape. And love it! Are you a pear, apple, brick, hour glass or inverted triangle?
Wants you know-- dress accordingly!

Feel free to leave questions and comments below.. Also, I'm looking for your stylish pictures, so if you think you were hot email me and see if you make the blogspot! Lnicole.designer.gmail.com

LaureNicole Talks PURSE, BAGS, AND POCKET BOOKS!

Ok... okay.. I've been gone for awhile but I'M BACK and in FULL AFFECT..

Let's talk accessories... one of my favorite accessories....PURSE, BAGS, AND POCKET BOOKS!

Yes! And for those of you ladies who don't carry purse or even a clutch.. SHAME ON YOU, seriously!!

Now for some of us it can be a JOY and for others unfortunately it can be a burden. BUT putting the right bag or purse with today's look can really pull together an outfit.

So yes, that means changing and switching purses with each ensemble. A simple black bag simply won't do! Purses and bags come in soo many different styles now, from the hideous "hello kitty purses" (inside joke) to oversize clutches and bags.

What most unreasonable people would call overnight bags. So here are a few things to keep in mind smaller bags are generally good for formal events and black tie affairs.

Here's the thing for these formal events don't be afraid to go over the top with them. In fact, don't be afraid to go over the top with any bag at any time!!

ok ..Ok don't get carried away, colors are your friends and you should definitely own an array of colorful bags but do keep in mind these big and beautiful bags work better with casual ensembles.

If you decide to wear all black or any predominantly solid color let your bag be a contrasting color.
Example, all black ANY color bag, all red try a blue, all pink try purple... YOU GET THE POINT!
One last thing, your purse does not have to match your shoes.. That's an old rule and quite frankly your bag can contrast your ensemble.

So run out and get you a fabulous fun oversize spacious bag or clutch!! Here are GREAT examples:

LaureNicolel Teaches How To "Shade" Your Sexy

Its that time of the year... the sun shinning, the birds are singing, and that means its the season for sun and sunglasses..

As the days turn warmer, you'll notice the shades get bigger. Certain experts will say this is the perfect time to protect your eyes from the sun's harmful rays.

This Fashion expert says its the perfect time to be FRESH and "Shade Your Sexy"!


Just like any other fashions...its an art to accessorisng, so your shades should be picked with care.


When picking your sunglasses ALWAYS consider your face shape, go opposite of your face shape. If you have a round shape face you want to go with a boxy shape, if you have a long lean face go with something that will make your face look full like round shape sunglasses...


There is an important message for you ladies!! Always consider your eyebrows, not all ladies look right covering there entire eyebrow (i'm one of them). Some should pick their glasses based off the natural shape of their eyebrows. (or like me use them when its time for the brows to be waxed!)


Oversized shades are definitely in this summer, but you must have the oversized swagg and attitude to go with it .
Here are my picks of those doing it right:

A NEW LOOK...A NEW YOU...FOR A NEW YEAR by LaureNicole

Happy New Year!!


Most people mark the new year as a new beginging, a chance to start over, a time to get it together, and clean out the closet. (Literally!)

It's time for a new look...for a new you... for a new year!



People make resolutions in the new year, to quit smoking, drinking, cursing, to lose weight, to eat right, and to set goals. Well why not quit the fashion disasters? Why not clean your closet and show people the new you for the new year?



Small things you do will make a world of difference! Get a new haircut...try bangs or layers. Add a new color to your wardrobe. You should be exploring colors already, BUT I understand we all move at a different pace.

Use the new year to explore YOUR new look. If you weren't sure about trying something last year, try it this year...or at least ask me first! Lol!

I just gave away some items out of my closet and not only did it feel good, but I made room for the NEW things set to come.

Please don't throw your things away. There's always someone out there that would love to have something new. Take your items to Goodwill, Salvation Army, or make some cash and take it to a consignment shop.

Get yourself together and get rid of the baggage this new year...
