You Go from Simple to Sexy in No Time Flat!
For those days when you're feeling less than sexy, here are a few easy updates to awaken the bombshell within! Remember, sexy doesn't always mean taking something off or showing more skin. Sometimes adding a layer gives just the oomph you need for a little va va voom!
  • Throw on a shrunken jacket to add dimension and highlight your curves, and roll up the sleeves for a youthful edge on casual cool.
  • Take your tank top and shorts from day to date with something more fitted overtop to create shape.
  • Lengthen those legs with sexy stilettos, strappy sandals, or shining peep toe pumps.
  • Add flirty feminine touches like a silky scarf or eye-catching earrings.
  • Show your chic sophistication with statement jewelry, and convey contemporary cool with loads of long chains.
  • Stand out with one-of-a-kind jewelry; revive your grandmother's vintage pieces.
  • Finish your look with a cute clutch or purse with pizzazz!

It’s Easy on the Wallet!
He constantly sees you looking amazing and put together ... what's a boy to think other than you're spending your days (and paychecks) scouring stores for the next ensemble du jour? Little does he know you're not breaking budget! We've got to shop smart these days, but that doesn't mean giving up our flair for fashion. CAbi's versatility, wearability, and, let's face it, flirtability, make it easy to look pretty and poised, all while maintaining the confidence that you've been prudent and practical in your purchases. CAbi's Lacy Skirt is a perfect example of how one piece can extend beyond just one look. Get creative and stretch your favorite pieces beyond the expected. pocket1pocket2pocket3




Sexy on the Go
onthego1Ever find yourself sitting at a stoplight, feverishly applying mascara before three, two, one - green light! We've all been that girl at least once. Life moves quickly, and sometimes it feels like there just aren't enough minutes in the day. So here's a little tip to help avoid the frenzy between running errands around town or the play date that ran late, to lunch with the girls or dinner for two: keep your Mary Poppins purse (or the trunk of your car) stocked to take your look from multi-tasking mama to fresh, fashionable friend! From layers to products, these few key pieces will keep you looking sexy on the go!
  • Flattering heels or funky flats can transform frumpy to fabulous! Throw on a straw fedora or show-stopping scarf and glide through a bad hair day with chic confidence! A cute cardigan ups the ante of even the comfiest t-shirt and jeans. And add fresh and flirty flair with a light scarf loosely wrapped around your neck. The perfect earrings can work wonders to brighten your face no matter how tired you feel and take you from the duties of the day to an elegantly eventful evening.
  • And don't forget the beauty basics to be armed with at all times:
    • Nothing says sexy like a sweet scent, and roll on perfume is perfectly purse ready! This spring we're loving Dream Angels Heavenly by Victoria's Secret. Add "glow" to places you want to highlight (arms, legs, collarbone, shoulders, etc.). For superbly sparkling skin, we recommend Bobbi Brown's Shimmer Brick for Body. Lip stain that can double as cheek and eye color is essential for the gal on the go. We love Benetint Pocket Pal, available at Sephora. This glossy color wand will be your best beauty pal. The kiss-proof, smudge-proof rosy lip and cheek stain is paired with a shiny clear gloss on the other end. We're also loyal to C.O. Bigelow's mentha lip tint, which offers great color choices while freshening breath for totally kissable lips. http://www.bigelowchemists.com/images/liptintlead.jpg
    • For the days you don't have time to shower between work and your date, Tea Tree Oil Facial Blotting Tissues will keep your skin in shower-fresh shape. And the unique formula of dry shampoo instantly absorbs impurities and oil on the hair and scalp to quickly cleanse and soften hair. Sephora has a marvelous myriad of options! Rene Furterer styling wax is our go-to for sculpting and shaping dry hair on the go.

Chatty CAbi: (686)
I love my CAbi clothes, especially the way the colors from season to season are the same. I can put a skirt from one season with a sweater from several seasons (years) ago. I really enjoy the Canary too. I like this week's blog on "how to do wear it now". I'd love to see you take it one step further and incorporate last year's Spring Collection (or older) paired with something new from this season.

It's sleeting & we expect another 6" of snow tomorrow. This isn't normal for our area! Meanwhile my wonderful customers are texting & calling to make sure my preview & shows are still on for this week. Thanks for getting the fashion show online today! We're all drooling over the clothes & excited to escape to Spring/Summer CAbiland for a few hours of girltime & temps in the 70's. Thanks design team for this absolutely incredible line.

Thanks again CAbi design team! I so appreciate your ideas each week in the Canary. My team conference call is next week and I'm sure we'll be incorporating lots of these ideas in our "Mix-it-up" discussion. Great for my long time customers as well! You ROCK!!!
