Ok so, many people have been seen wearing bright polish this summer to name a few Rihana and Lindsay Lohan. Neon nails are so bold and perfect for summer.
Some brands with hot new neon lines are Essie, Orly, and Channel.
I love keeping up with polish color trends because $7 gets you a bottle of fantastic color that will be envied. I found this blog that is devoted to nail polish, well its actually lacquer but same difference. I got the images from it. Check out all lacquered up.

Easy Summer Outfit
This outfit is perfect for a stroll down the beach or for going out to coffee in the morning. It is so simple yet so classy.
This dress is great because the thick straps allow you to easily wear a bra, without worrying how to cover up the straps.
This belt is skinny and can easily be worn at the waist to create curves or through the belt loops to dress up jeans.
gladiator sandals: simple and chick. What more can i say?
This bracelet is adjustable and can also be worn as a necklace or a belt, making it well worth the nine dollars.
Summer is going fast, be sure to enjoy it while it is here!

Shop, and Fight
Fight breast cancer with these purchases.
Leather braclet
Lucky Charms $25
Donated amount: $0
although, they did make a $2,500 donation to Susan G Comen for the cure.
Virtually all of Wilson's womens' golf along with a few products in other sports is the Hope brand which supports the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. There is no specific amount donated, but wilson says, "Your purchase of a Wilson Sporting Goods product in turn helps Wilson to maintain its ongoing support of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation."
I had trouble finding other products that support breast cancer. let me know if there are any other good products.

Here are my favorite outfits, all pieces available on Alloy.com and the high points of Alloy.com with emphasis added to my favorite piece of the outfit.
Vneck tee $13
This edgy men's wear piece goes great with straight or skinny leg jeans add a few girly touches such as a shiny belt and a sweet bangle and your outfit is complete.
White Denim Mini $20
I love the contrasting leather belt. it is so simple and adds a touch of class to the destroyed mini.
Alloy also has celebrity fashion articles such as this one:
