Mary Ellen's Favorite Item:
Jeans
"They are comfortable, go with everything and most importantly...very flattering. Everyone needs a good pair of jeans.”
Mary Ellen shows us the absolute versatility of a great pair of jeans that "fit like a glove", and are in the latest style—the fuller legged boot cut. These were her favorite item and the perfect thing for Bjorn to work with to create a sophisticated daytime look. A plain white t-shirt is a good basic item to wear under the yellow Ciao Ltd. Silk shirtdress. This totally illustrates the idea of using a shirtdress like this one as a casual jacket! The monochromatic tones make it easy to add in some wonderful accessories like the Temple St. Clair necklace with gold charms, the beaded cross ring, and last but not least, the gold and cream earrings. To keep the outfit on trend, he uses some brown ankle boots with gold details that pick up the glitter of the jewelry, and that adds to Mary Ellen’s own sparkling personality!

- Ciao Ltd. yellow silk shirtdress – 4.99
- Temple St. Clair drop, gold bangle necklace - 6.99

Jackie's Favorite Item:
Jeans
"They are so comfortable and they look really good with heels.”
Jackie paints the town red, literally in this vintage Weill Paris crimson short-sleeved coat. A simple tank top and jeans from Jackie’s own closet is a perfect pair that serves as a backdrop for the spectacular and colorful coat! With a piece like this, you don’t need much to set it off, so Bjorn chose some awesome silver heart earrings, a silver bracelet, and a cool pendant necklace in silver, black and plum. To give her a little sass, he added some BCBG brand peep toe platform shoes that work well with the length of her skinny jeans. Keep in mind that when wearing jeans with heels, the length should be a bit longer, just in case you want to cuff them like Jackie did. Keep the color coming for fall and winter, especially the scarlet to orange shades that make us feel warm, cozy and fashionable at the same time!

- Silver bracelet - 2.99
