Believe it or not, Spring is right around the corner! The cold weather has many of us itching for sunshine and to bring out our floral dresses, bright tank tops, comfortable shorts and skirts, and best of all – our fun bathing suits!

 
There is no better way to prepare for a new season than by doing some shopping and adding more in-trend pieces to your wardrobe. We have lots of great options for trends for 2017 that you need to be wearing!

 
1. Super Bright Colors
You know bright colors are always a great style trend for Spring. But this year, super bright colors are in! Vibrant, bold colors that really pop are going to be a go-to this year. Don’t be afraid to go bold! Whether you choose to center your outfit around one bold color or you mix more than one – you will have a super stylish look for Spring!

 

2. Pattern Mixing
This is a style that many people are very cautious to do. But this look is so “in!” The key with mixing patterns is to stick to a color scheme. The colors do not have to be a perfect match, but should still flow well together. Using stripes is a great way to mix a pattern. It can be done simply and look beautiful. Still a little cautious? Check out our Pinterest for infographics of pattern mixing how-tos!

 

3. Florals
“Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking.” Okay, so maybe Miranda Priestly was looking for something a little more in The Devil Wears Prada, but this Spring, florals are huge! Whether you are bold in head-to-toe, pair a flowy top with shorts or jeans, or toss a kimono over your outfit: a floral outfit looks so girly and chic!

 

Spring is a time to be bold, colorful, and fun! Let your outfit express your joy for the warm, sun-shining weather this year with stylish looks that turn heads!

During the month of March, we honor Colon Cancer Awareness. March became dedicated to this cause in February of 2000 by President Clinton. For the past seventeen years, patients, survivors, caregivers, and advocates have rallied together to help support this cause through fundraising events, education, and overall support to finding a cure.

Blue is the color that is associated with the Colon Cancer Alliance and Colon Cancer Awareness. On the first Friday of every March, National Dress in Blue Day is celebrated. This day is honored by the community to unite together for one cause.

The founder of Colon Cancer Stars, Anita Mitchell birthed the idea of Dress in Blue Day and the day became celebrated nationwide in 2009. Anita battled stage IV colon cancer. She also lost her father and a close friend to the disease. Anita felt as though there was not enough awareness to this type of cancer and recognized a need to bring the discussion of colon cancer to light.

Dressing in blue on this day sends an incredibly powerful message. It is a way to honor and celebrate loved ones. Whether they have lost their battle, are currently fighting, or have overcome the disease: we want to celebrate their journey and strength through it all. It is also a way to motivate and educate others to be screened for colon cancer. The disease is highly preventable and screening can be life saving. Above all, dressing in blue is a way of celebrating how far this cause has come.

Learn more about Dress in Blue Day and find ways that you can help support this cause. All month long, we will be featuring the Amelia Love Links Bracelet and 50% of the sale will be donated to Colon Cancer Awareness.

We want to see how you are bringing awareness to this day! Tag us on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook!

The most fun part of style is dressing up your outfit with glittery accessories. Bracelets, necklaces, and earrings make any outfit *POP*

 

At Saint Vintage, our handmade jewelry is perfect for adding that pop to any outfit. We came up with some great jewelry sets to wear together or alone to add instant style to your wardrobe!

 

Use this month’s featured Love Links bracelet to create the accent piece to this accessory set. The Love Strands necklace features a green colored Buddha charm that works as a perfect accent to the color to represent Cancer Prevention Awareness. And the sparkly Love Drops will shimmer beautifully!

 

Many styles from our Love Links and Love Drops Collection feature a matching pair! Draw out colors or styles from these pieces to find a Love Link necklace that will accent the style. We love the way the Palisades set accents the navy color with the Cora Love Strand.

 

Bold colors are always so much fun! The bold colors of the red Carmen Love Strand and Eva Love Links pair perfectly together. With bold colors, a touch of sparkle is just what you need to complete this gorgeous set!

 

With so many beautiful style choices from our Love Strands, Love Links, and Love Drops Collections, you can create unique sets that are a staple in your wardrobe.

 

As if shopping for stylish accessories isn’t fun enough, a purchase at Saint Vintage has much more meaning than fashionable qualities. With each piece from Saint Vintage, up to 50% of sales goes directly to finding a cure for cancer. Not only can you adorn yourself with glittery statement pieces, but every time you dress up your style, you are reminded that you are helping fund a great cause.

The chilly weather may be forcing us to warm our hands with mittens and gloves but that doesn’t mean your nails can’t still be stylish! There are nail trends for the winter season that are so beautiful that you will forget about the bitter cold outside! With so many great winter-themed options to choose from, you will have so much fun picking out a style to rock this season!

 

Match the color of the freshly fallen snow with winter white nails! Make the color really stand out by adding some silver or gold sparkle. You can even add a touch of color there, too! A nice light pink is so adorable with white nails.

 

 

Of course, you can always design your nails with cute snow activities! Snowflakes, snowmen, or even snowy trees makes your nails look super chic! It is always so much fun to pick out a beautiful design to accent the colors you choose.

 

 

Blue is a great color for wintertime. Somehow the sky seems so much bluer this time of year, probably due to the bright reflection of the white ground! Whether you opt for a light blue or a bold royal blue: you will be so stylish with your nails!

 

 

Whichever style you choose for your winter-themed nails, you will look incredibly stylish! If you want to check out more great nail inspirations, head over to our Pinterest page!

Resolve to be Philanthropic in 2017

The New Year is upon us! Have you come up with resolutions for 2017 yet? Every year, we each strive to improve our lives. Whether we want to adopt a healthier lifestyle or pursue a dream; our resolutions have a theme of becoming better.

At Saint Vintage, we take pride in raising money and awareness for cancer. Philanthropy is at the heart of our company. If you are looking for a resolution that can help make a difference, consider devoting your time to volunteering for a good cause.

Here are some ways that you can lend a helping hand in the New Year:

1. Volunteer at a Hospital

Reach out to your local hospital and see how you can help volunteer. A great way to be involved is to simply go in and visit with some of the patients. Read to them, play games with them, or even just sit and talk. It sounds simple, but it can mean a lot to them! You can also volunteer as a greeter to welcome families or sit in the waiting room to provide some support to those families waiting for a loved one. Hospitals are also a great place to donate blood if you are interested.

2. Participate in a Fundraiser

There are many marathons, races, or other activities that support a cause whether it is health related such as cancer awareness or community-related such as supporting the homeless. Take a look at some local activities that may be coming up that you can participate in. Plus, if you are already seeking to be more active in the New Year, participating in a marathon is a great motivator to be fit!

3. Volunteer at a Shelter

There are a variety of shelters that seek volunteers such as for the homeless or pets. These organizations typically have a very small budget to assist those in need and are always looking for volunteers to lend a hand. You can help the homeless by serving food, provide entertainment, or wash clothes. Pet shelters are a great place to assist with cleaning, organize donations, or help with adoption events.

4. Donate Supplies

Maybe your busy schedule does not allow you extra time to volunteer. There are still ways you can help! Go through some of your clothes or household items and donate what you do not use. Or, pick up a few extra items at the store to donate to a local shelter. Every little bit helps and can make a difference.

Resolving to become more philanthropic in 2017 will not only make you feel better about yourself, it will also be helping others. Volunteering warms your heart like few other things will.

Are you running out of outfit inspiration for Casual Friday at your office?

These must-copy styles have been trending on Pinterest and we have picked our top 4 favorite outfit combinations to try on your next dress-down day (with a little added sparkle too, of course)!

The key to a successful Casual Friday outfit is to tone down your formal look with something more comfortable, yet still professional. Even if jeans are your preference, we have ways to dress them up for an appropriate office style!

Look #1

Have you seen the new jean trend? Flares are back! Find yourself a pair of flattering high-waisted, flared-bottom pair of pants and dress them up with a loose-fitting blouse (tucked in a little if you prefer). Put on a pair of comfortable heels, grab your favorite clutch, add a touch of Swarovski crystal from our Antique Star Necklace, and get ready for some co-worker envy!

Look #2

Do you think of skirts when you think of comfort? Try a pleated maxi with tucked in patterned button shirt and brown leather belt. This all pink Casual Friday look is the perfect combination for our Pink Petite Fleur Bracelet! (Florals are always a great accessory!)

Look #3

We are absolutely in love with this adorable collared shirt with sheer sleeves! You can wear this by itself with jeans or layer it with a black blazer for the office. Accessorize with pointed black flats and then add a little color with our Palisades Love Drop Earrings!

Look #4

Everyone loves a denim jacket. You can pull this look off at the office if you pair it with a leopard print pencil skirt and a plain white shirt. Really make a statement by purchasing our Antique Heart Clip Necklace! You can either wear it as a necklace or clip it onto your jacket and wear as a brooch like one of our followers did (pictured below).

4^th of July is just a little over a week away and we’ve got red, white, and blue on our minds!

Whether you are traveling to see your family and friends, or hosting your own backyard barbeque, it’s time to start thinking about what you are going to wear. We’ve been keeping an eye on the latest red, white, and blue street style trends – and we’ve added our own Saint Vintage sparkle inspiration to make you stand out this holiday.

Comfy Chic

Pops of red against white will definitely make a statement this year! Stay cool in a cotton skirt & red-striped tee. Let your hair down, add a little bit of red lipstick, and wrap yourself in our Catherine Love Strand! Adorned with a silver regal crown charm.

Dress It Up

Pick a pair of patterned shorts and build your outfit around that! We love the blue and white geometrical pattern of these shorts. Add a plain, white sleeveless blouse and layer with a lightweight, scalloped red blazer! Dress it up with some blue bling from our NEW Couture Vivien Necklace to perfect your look!

Keep It Casual

We are also inspired by the idea of red, white, and blue separates. Relax in blue pants (polka-dotted if you want more flair!) and a white, cotton long-sleeve shirt. Then, add some accessories to complete this 4^th of July outfit of the day – a pop of red from a clutch or handbag and our Blakesley Love Cures Bracelet make a perfect pair.

Want more outfit inspiration all summer long? Follow our Pinterest board for more style! We will also be posting more 4^th of July outfits – and other summer looks – on our Facebook page!
