Pre-Fall 2013: Back to Basics

Top: Express (similar here).  Necklace: Nordstrom.  Planner: Erin Condren.

 In preparation for the semester ahead, we're putting together a few of our favorite staple items: hot pink, statement necklaces, and our trusty Erin Condren Life Planners.  Call them "basics" if you will; these items are a part of our weekly rotation.  And the planner?  Part of our daily routine!  We love how It Girl Cristina pairs a simple hot pink peplum top with a bold necklace.  It gives her shirt a whole new feel!  The same can be done with plain tees, graphic tees, and your favorite chambray button down.  Add a pair of dark denim jeans, and you've got a chic look in a snap.  

What basic items are a part of your wardrobe rotation?  Tell us below!  Oh and P.S. be sure to order your Erin Condren planner in time for Back to School season!

It Girl Trend Report: Summer Dresses!

During the hot summer months, we find ourselves turning to one of our favorite wardrobe staples... a pretty dress!  It's easy, breezy, and it creates an instantly chic outfit that's all pulled together.  As you can see from our It Girls' submissions, there's a color trend going on here: white!  Oh yes, the summer dress is nothing short of white hot.  Add some embellishments as seen in Allie's & Serena's choices, such as beading or even a feminine bow.  Serena adds, "I love summer because I can finally wear white throughout the entire season, and it shows off my tan!"  We're big fans of summer whites as well-- always a crisp & clean choice.

And of course we can't forget about a cool & refreshing shade of mint, as seen in Cristina's selection.  Avery told us that she's "loving jean/chambray anything" these days, so naturally her effortless casual yet stylish jean dress from J. Crew is a perfect summer staple!

It Girl Trend Report: Fab&Fit

Working out and being fit is something that should be a priority for everyone.  Sure, we may feel lazy and unmotivated but sometimes a cute pair of running shoes or a cute workout gear can really boost your motivation to workout- we like to call this being “Fab&Fit”!  We personally like to get our motivation from our dearest friend and blogger, Lauryn Evarts’ blog, “The Skinny Confidential”.  (Meet her here!)

For this week’s It Girl Intern Trend Report, we asked our It Girl Interns to snap a picture of their favorite workout item!  

What are some of your favorite work out items?  Instagram and mention us! @thesororitysecrets
