I went to Siesta Key with my family last week. We had a great time! The beach is the perfect place to catch up on all the latest issues of your favorite magazines! I thought I would share a few things that I found.

The fashionista in me couldn’t leave out Lucky Magazine’s “How to Shop for a little black dress” written by documentary filmmaker Liliana Greenfield-Sanders. As most of you know, I adore my collection of little black dresses!
A little embellishment is key. Ruchedsleeves, contrast stitching, or a pretty waist tie will make another wise basic dress look really expensive. Look for unfussy fabric. Black canautomatically come off as formal, so a low-key material – like cotton, knit or jersey – relaxes the look and keeps these dresses from feeling stuffy. Accessorize with bright shoes. Even simplesolid-color pumps will add a bit of a kick. Grab this month’s issue of Lucky and check out page 112 for little black dresses by Banana Republic, Cynthia Rowley and Olga Kapustina.
If you are in the mood for a romantic love story… Pick up the Spring/Summer issue of Town and Country Weddings and read Kimberly Schlegel and Justin Whitman’s symphonic ceremony story or capture the details of Stacey Kaye and Matthew Bronfman’s beach wedding – Upon arrival their guests received totes, which contained Michael Kors sunglasses, Havana Joe flip-flops and Origins skin-care products, just to name a few.
On the very last page, you can read a wedding story that was originally published in the July 1915 issue of Town and Country… talk about taking a trip!
