OC Weekend: Holiday Stylings

December 08, 2011

The holiday festivities are in full swing and we all know what that means...Time to party! This year ditch the LBD and opt for a jewel toned dress in colors such as ruby, emerald or teal. Not feeling so bold? Try color blocking with separates. A simple black skirt paired with a jewel tone sweater or blouse can instantly update your look. Also, don’t be afraid of menswear this season. Pair velvet trousers with a crisp button down for a classic look that looks great on men and women!

Be on trend at every holiday party this season and let the stylists at STYLE 2020 help you! Don’t get caught wearing the same look to the office and out at night. Learn how to turn your everyday office style into evening glam with simple tips such as changing from a simple black pump in the day to a velvet or embellished heel at night! Leave your purse at home and grab a sexy feather or lace clutch that will be sure to get you that “wow” factor. This year give the gift that keeps on giving…the gift of style!

The STYLE 2020 Lounge Studio is located at 888 San Clemente Drive in Newport Beach. 949.219.2360.

Boxtops for Kids!

Box Tops for EducationWe just received a heartfelt letter from the third grade students in Room 28 at Carrillo Elementary School in Westminster. The students are in desperate need of Boxtops for Education to help purchase higher level thinking games for their classroom. The students use the games each week with fifth grade tutors to build a community within their school.

Dear Readers,
We are 3rd graders at Carrillo Elementary School in Westminster, CA. We are asking you to save Boxtops for Education for our class. They are pink labels oncereals, cake mixes, yogurts, binders, and drinks. The money we earn helps us get math supplies and books to help us be better students.

Thank you so much.

Please send your boxtops to:
Carrillo School Room 28
15270 Bushard St.
Westminster, CA 92683

Love,
The Students in Room 28"
