• Swimsuits in 2023 are smaller than ever. Bottoms are cheekier, triangle tops have shrunken down to minute proportions, and underboob seems to have become an inevitability. If you are not going for the itty bitty string bikini, there are ways to update your swimwear wardrobe by incorporating prints and design details.
• Long Sleeve Swimsuits - Sheer Sleeves, Cutouts & Bright Colors 
• Athletic Swimwear - Super Sporty, Asymmetrical Straps, Lots of Color Blocking. In 2023, athletic bikinis offer full-coverage tops and bottoms while still incorporating a detailed cutout.
• Metal Accents & Ring Bikinis - (Thank you Julia Fox) - 
• Sequined Swimwear - We are seeing sequins on Bikinis and One-Pieces.
• Shimmer Swimwear  - It’s all about the texture and how it glistens in the pool - Think Bold Colors, Lime Green, Coral, Reds & Oranges…or go for a Sparkle Black Suit.
• Mermaid Style Swimsuits -  Scallop-Edge Bikini tops, themed prints, and mermaid scale-inspired textures that go between a  metallic and a  shimmer. (Think Hailey Bieber Glazed Donut Nail Trend)
• Color Blocking - Used across the Board in every Swimsuit Style this Season. Could find more Subtle Color - such as Light Corals, Browns, Nudes, White and Black.
• Vintage Silhouettes - Silky Fabrics, Ribbon Closures, Bows and Ruffles - Softer Romantic Sexiness
• High-Waisted One Pieces & Bikinis - Supposedly have more Coverage in the stomach area pulling that waist in
• Bralette (think Lingerie inspired) Swimsuits - Bra-like styles like Demi, Balconette and Super Deep Plunge Cuts.
• Off The Shoulder Swimsuits - Think Bandeau, V Neck, Square or Sweetheart Necklines - Add Bows at Shoulders…even Draped Design Detail at Arms.

Memorial Day is almost here…

• Guess I am coming over here….bahahahah! No really, I mean it:) If the weather is good..I will definitely be outside enjoying some nature.  

• Oh and and going to start self tanning NOW!

• Barbeques, Family Get Together, Pool Parties, The Lake, Golfing or Maybe a Trip?

• What to Wear for your Memorial Day Weekend Events?

• Obviously, the colors red, white & blue (even if it’s just one color you stick with) 

• Beautiful all white summer dress is my favorite pick and then add an accessory. I will usually get a silk or cotton scarf and roll it up like a choker necklace and tie it around my hair or I will wear it in my hair. Madewell has some amazing silk and cotton bandanas that are light enough to not totally make you faint when wearing in the heat. They literally saved my life when I lived in New Orleans.

• Any and all light airy dresses, striped, patterned or monochrome - Halter, Cutouts and Maxi’s are in this season.

• A long flowy skirt with a basic t-shirt and then load on the jewelry

• Basic White T-shirt dress in White - Usually very reasonable priced and you can add a red or blue sandal and loads of jewelry and look like a million bucks

• Denim Shorts with a long sleeve striped silk, linen or seer sucker button up 

• Jumpsuits….they’re your friends!

What to Pack in your Traveling on Memorial Day Weekend?

• Sunscreen (Bahahaha) I love SuperGoop GlowScreen (Gorgeous Glow with 40 SPF)

• A Sun Hat

• Sunglasses

• Skirts 

• Light Airy Dress

• Matching Sets

• Swimsuit 

• Cover-up Options

• Day to Night Looks….Such as a dress you could add jewelry and change shoes for a nice look if needed

• Think of fabric that works well in heat - Most activities or parties are usually (for the most part) outside.

  
  

Styling Ideas using the Top Trends in 2023!

• I mean anything oversize - Wear an oversize men’s t-shirt as a dress?  Why not?

• Cargo Pants - If cotton cargo’s aren't appealing think of doing a pair in silk or satin?

• Maxi Dresses

• Cut-outs 

• Denim on Denim

• Big Bold Color - Lime Green, Magenta, Red, Yellow…and of course a bright Blue for Memorial Day!

• Anything Mini

  
  

How to Shop Your Closet? 

• This is hard to hear but always try to shop your closet first!

• Do you own a white dress?  If not, this is a great time to pick one up because you can add color to the dress by adding accessories and a pop of color with your sandals, heels or Samba Adidas Humanrace Sneakers 

• T-Shirt Dress

• White Shorts with a White Top - Go Monochromatic and add a red shoe or red lipstick or even a belt

• Denim on Denim - Cutoffs with a Button-up and roll those sleeves up…and some killer gladiator sandals and you're done.

• Do you have a matching set?  Matching sets are now staples….pick one up they're all over TikTok and Amazon …and my personal favorite Free People…specifically I like the Tovah Set, Beach Bash Sweater Set, Take me To Paris Low Back Set, Augusta Set, The Bliss Set, The Clean Coastal Denim Set and the Rolla’s Dallas Short Suit Set 

What are your favorite drinks, food or appetizers to bring to a Memorial Day Get Together?

• I love a watermelon salad

• I feel like a really good potato salad is a must…I prefer one made with mustard 

• I mean my favorite….wait for it…Coconut Cake - It’s light and you can decorate the top with blueberries, strawberries or raspberries even blackberries to make a flag design or just incorporate the red and blue colors

• Vogue’s Latest Front Cover Suggests Specific Models will be Attending

• Our Fashion Favorites 

Coachella takes place every April for 2 consecutive weekends. The first festival was in 1999. The 22nd Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival took place on the weekends of April 14th, 2023 and April 23rd, 2023.  It was held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA. (about 23 miles east of Palm Springs/ 127 miles out of Los Angeles.

Tickets prices were tiered (1 thru 5) ranging from $549 to $649 - VIP tickets started at $1,069

Celebrities, influencers and surprise performers show up yearly.  Typically…you can expect the 2nd weekend to go smoother as a whole.

Celebrities and Influencers typically show up on the first weekend to make sure they get the first look at everything.  So for sure…influencers are always there for weekend one and The Revolve Festival which took place April 15th and April 16th.  A Lot of my favorite fashion looks went down at the Revolve Party. 

Coachella Headliners & Top Musical Performances 

Blondie -Debbie Harry is a legend.  She wore a sheer long sleeve top with leather vest and gray acid wash gloves that matched her acid wash pants - but the mirrored poncho that she came out in and later took off just made it for me.  I absolutely LOVED IT!

Bad Bunny -Bad Bunny made history being the first Latin artist to headline Coachella - This gorgeous man wore a custom all-black Mugler look consisting of a leather jacket, buckle-waist pants, and a zipped hoodie with sheer corset paneling at the torso for one of his sets (my personal favorite). He also rocked an open puffer jacket and was showing a beautiful new chest tattoo, six-pack abs and diamond chains.

Rosalía - Holy Smokes, is she fantastic or what??? YESSSSSS! Rosalía wore as custom Acne Studios, including a sheer pink robe with lace-up detailing, a black bustier top, and leather pants. Then came out with black bustier shiny leather pants and a sheer blouse much like the light pink. She rocked Rick Owens futuristic Kriester Sunglasses (one of the hottest products in 2023) Oh and if you missed Rosalía  in a white  bodysuit, shiny white sarong and white block heeled boots.  WHAT…YES!!! Here is a link to see it!

 Learn More About Rosalía and Acne Studios Campaign - Acne Studios custom made 128 pieces for her Tour that kicks off in June in Barcelona, Spain..

Frank Ocean - I love this man. 

Trends We Saw at Coachella 2023

• Anything sheer or see-through - Dresses, Mini Skirts, Skirts, Blouses…any garment will do!
• Baggy Jeans and Cargo Pants
• Vests (studded, leather, chained and beaded)
• Bralettes (lace, leather, shiny, satin) 
• Bralettes paired under Vests and Jackets
• Sequin Dresses and Sequins in General including barely there micro tanks
• Corsets for Corset Detail 
• Denim on Denim 
• Different Acid Wash Denim
• Plaid Ensembles 
• Wild Expressive Mini Dress Prints
• Loads of either Silver, Gold or Beaded Jewelry and layered on thick!
• Mini Shorts 
• Body Chains

Rachel’s Favorite Coachella Looks and Fashion Highlights

Zendaya rocked a pink corset-style top and matching frayed skirt, layered over a white tank, with black thigh-high, lace-up stiletto boots. Accessories -  large silver hoops and rings. She performed with Labrinth on the songs “I’m Tired” and “All of Us”

Hailey Bieber wore a crisp white cropped tank top, faded oversized light-wash jeans, a black Streets Ahead belt, Mejuri earrings, a gold body chain and several layered gold necklaces. Let’s not forget the streak of yellow eyeliner and bright lime green nails. Loved it!

Irina Shayk wore a sheer black slip dress with diagonal ruffles from Rat and Boa, plus a black choker and cross pendant rosary necklace.I also especially liked her in the Etro Skirt, Versace Top and Burberry Shoes - I had to look 3 times to make sure that it wasn’t a matching look.  Amazing way to wear patterns with similar color schemes.

Shopping for closeouts - How does Rachel shop for closeouts?

I scour the web…If I know what I am looking for I will take a picture of it and use Google Lens (if you're not using Google Lens You're missing out BIG TIME!

Here is a Link to my Blog - Get the BEST price on (or find) anything - Google Lens!

This ensures you see how the item you are looking for is priced throughout the internet 

Know how to sort on websites?

(if you don’t know, Here is a Link to my Blog - The Shopping Deadline )

KEY POINTS: When I shop online, one of my best friends is the “sort” option. If the site you're using has the option to sort by size, price, color, and condition - use it. If you're looking for a specific item like a black mini dress, you will want to type that in the search bar and then start sorting by…

Your size! (I know I always try to size down when I know I should size up).  Something to keep in mind: if you have a good tailor and see an amazing deal on a larger sized item, take it! It could be a good option turned into an amazing deal after alterations.  I then sort by price - low to high - and if given the option on a resale site, I will add the option of condition and start with the top tier of excellent, pristine, and, at times, very good.  Some sites do not have this option, so you rely on the description and system by which that site labels the condition of the items. This is important. When buying, remember to check the description or scale offered on the item you are purchasing to make sure it is the condition you're expecting and always check measurements (which means know your measurements… I know, but this will help you BIGTIME). 

 I use this sorting option even when I am not shopping resale (gasp) which is usually on bedding or homegoods. It’s an excellent option to use on all retail websites.  

Places I am Shopping Now….

How to Glam Up Your Closet:

• paint/ wall paper walls
• Install new closet new system
• New light fixtures
• Drawer organizers/ liners
• Decorate shelves
• Add artwork
• Add rug
• Beautiful jewelry organizers
• Shop your closet

If you have an area where you start to transport your spring favorites back into your current closet all while rotating your winter wears away, the clean out should start there. I usually at the end of every season pick up some closeout favorites. So right off the bat, I will get excited because I have totally forgotten about these purchases!!
Here’s the deal: you know you're a mega shopper when you start to transition your pieces for the next season and have a delightful surprise realizing you bought some amazing closeouts the prior season that you just forgot about… what? I know… it happens every season!
Yes, take it from me… every new season I get excited. So don’t forget to get those closeout deals at the end of every season. Buy pieces that you know you will need for fall and winter now. This could be the bright Fair Isle Sweater you want to get your hands on or the Viva Magenta scarf that is the pantone color of 2023. Yes, buy for fall and winter and resale items you know you aren’t wearing now for spring/summer.
It is best to sell garments, shoes, and accessories right before the upcoming season. You should make more money off sandals and shorts or more seasonal items when being consigned right before the start of the spring/summer season.
Granted, if I want an item out of my closet, I will just resale it or consign it. I like to check things off my list… to be honest, if I wait until right before the season, I might not sell it. I will most likely rethink it.

See ALL the notes, links and favs on our Oscar Blog: StyleandGive.com/PODCAST

We loved it so much we did a blog on just The Beauty in Everything Everywhere All At Once

The 95th OSCARS! Let’s do it...

How did we feel Jimmy Kimmel did as host?  I loved him…I mean I can’t get enough of the Matt Damon jabs. That whole stint between the two of them crap me up! Also loved Kimmel talking about Nicole Kidman never leaving AMC theaters…Hilarious…

Some of Rachel’s Favorite Moments  At 2023 Oscars

Quote by Ke Huy Quan during his Oscar Acceptance Speech  - “Dreams are something you have to believe in,” Quan said as tears streamed down his face and A-list attendees gave him a standing ovation. “I almost gave up on mine. To everyone out there, please keep your dreams alive.”

Full Circle Moment when Ke Huy Quan, who starred alongside Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom when he was a child, won best supporting actor for Everything Everywhere All at Once following a two-decade break from performing and Harrison Ford and Key Huy Quan embraced after everything Everywhere All at Once won best picture.

Loved when the directors of best short film, An Irish Goodbye, used their acceptance speech to sing a rendition of Happy Birthday to one of the film's stars, James Martin.

Lenny Kravitz performed “Calling All Angels,” his song from the 2004 album, Baptism

SOOOO much more at: StyleandGive.com/PODCAST

Tera’s Favorite Looks:

Ana De Armas- Champagne scaled look Louis Vuitton dress

Zoe Saldana- simply elegant cream dress with silver lace Fendi Dress

Molly Sims- stunning emerald green cutout Chakra Couture dress with a sheer and feather cape

Cara Delevigne- Ellie Saab, gorgeous deep red one-shoulder wow factor dress with a really high slit

Hong Chau- bubblegum pink Prada dress with a cool feather train

Marilyn Monroe - American Actress, Mode, Singer, Pop Culture Icon and Sex Symbol of the 1950’s

Known for her blonde hair, flawless Make-up and her femininity. She wore a lot of plain blouses, turtlenecks, capri pants, dresses and skirts that showed off her figure. She also wore a lot of ballet flats and high heels.  Marilyn had amazing make-up - Marilyn famously used five lip products to create her signature pout. Using darker colors towards the edges of the lips and lighter colors in the middle created a contoured effect. Then, she’d finish with a bit of white highlight in the middle of the lower lip and a coat of gloss. All together, this clever use of lipstick made her lips look fuller and made her overall makeup even more glamorous…Creating a perfect on camera look takes a lot of detail. So, Marilyn used three different colors of eyeliner to get it just right. For the upper lid and wing, she used black liner. For the lower lash line, she used brown, and in the water line, she used white to make the eyes look even bigger. Marilyn would add a dot of red liner to the inner corner of her eyes. This highlights the eyes and actually makes them look whiter   (Article from Besame).

Kim Kardasian wore Marilyn Monroe's dress Ripley's Believe It or Not,, a privately owned, for-profit “attractions company,” acquired the gown in 2016 for nearly $5 million, and said the gown was believed to be valued at more than $10 million around the time Kardashian wore it.

https://parade.com/entertainment/super-bowl-2023-halftime-show-rihanna

• Favorite Food to Munch on During the Super Bowl?
• Who is gonna win?? Chiefs of Course - They are favored to win…but not by much…3 points I believe as of today. 

What should you wear to a Super Bowl party - fun outfit ideas…

Think Street Style Boho Chic and Think Comfort!

I read this on the internet …Mesh Leggings, a hoodie and a festive dad hat - If you're vibing with ugly sports gear - it made me laugh but wasn't too far off from my pics

Some ideas I am thinking of wearing are:

1. An oversize Jersey with a hoodie underneath
2. Oversized Chiefs Hoodie with some leather pants
3. Bright Colored Sweater (Red in my case for the Chiefs) Boyfriend Jeans and a Playful heel
4. Vintage Team Sweatshirt, Hoodie, T-shirt or Sweater with some Jeans (Roughed up (holes and faded)- is my personal preference
5. Track Pants - Here me out - Basic Black or Do Color ( I have a Red Pam & Gela Pair with a white Stripe on SyleandGive.com now) with a hoodie or old school long sleeve white or black shirt - add a beanie or hat to give it more of an edge
6. Your favorite team's leggings (yes, I have a pair that have an animal print with Chiefs on the side - NFL Store or Amazon should have them but by now) with a basic Black, White or Grey oversized Hoodie and some combat boots.
7. Colored Jeans and a long sleeve White or Black Crew neck T-Shirt
8. Do a black Bodysuit with Jeans and add a fun colored Belt
9. Vintage T-shirts, Sweatshirts and Sweaters with your teams logo is always fun
10. Oversize cropped Jersey or Jersey
11. Team Logo Socks with Birkenstocks - Yeah I just blew your mind with that one.

The best way to celebrate Galentine's Day is to do something that you and your friends like and enjoy together. Some popular ideas include having a spa day at home, having a party, doing a craft or project together, or watching movies or TV shows together. It's also important to make sure everyone is happy and having a good time, and to be respectful of everyone's schedules and budget. The most important thing is to have fun and make good memories with your friends.

Would you be me my Valentine?

So, I grabbed some scissors, ordered some postcards from “Zazzle” of places I intend to travel to or am manifesting traveling too in 2023, and items I have collected over this year that I believe would take me into 2023.  Some are from “Stutz,” the documentary that changed my perspective in the last month of 2022 (here is the link to the blog I wrote in regards to this documentary). Others are just simply words or quotes that have made me think about the future or life in general. On top of that, there are, well, lots of pictures of models in fantastic outfits that I would like to emulate and wear very, very soon and models in different areas of the world that just look like somewhere I would want to eat or be. I want to experience all of it, you know!
