Basic New Wardrobe Essentials!

Let's be shameless and face it. Every girl grants themself the shopping trip at the end of every season to restock their hangers with the latest and greatest! These concurring fashion quests leave me happy for only moments, and then I feel like last months Vogue in the local recycling bin. This time around (with my time, $$$ & baby crunch) I choose to shop wisely! So this post is for the trendy mom who wants to evolve her "doing dishes" outfit into her "lunch date" outfit with the snap of a leather bracelet...& other pieces that are versatile!

The Maxi Skirt-
Cotton knit around my hips, hiding my "not-so-shaven" legs...what more could a mother ask for?? This item is so essential for the Spring/Summer season! Dress it up with a jean jacket or blazer and dress it down with a razorback tank! Now brings the question..Patterns/Colors? Personally, my closet can't await to take in some neutral stripes and bright colors! It's important to choose a color that goes well with just about everything and is complementary to a lot of colors or to you!
 Invest in 3 different Maxi's..
Here is mini look book compliled of ideas to dress up your maxi skirt!






The Elbow Cardigan
This is important to dress up any outfit and apply that "finished" look! And it's so much fun to add color to any outfit! I think the brighter the sweater the better! Dress it up with a statement necklace or dress it down with some jean cuttoffs! Here are some other Cardi options!


ACCESSORIES, easy as 1,2,3! I think it's essential to have these basic accessories in your jewelry box:


 1.Gold & Silver bracelets to accompany a Watch or Pearl or Diamond statement bracelet


2.Statement Necklace



3.Diamond & Pearl Studded Earings

CHAEMARIQUE NAUTICAL&NEON

Now to "top it off" we have a little something Nautical & Neon for your summer wardrobe! Temperatures are rising for these two trends and it's time to feel the summer heat with a Chaemarique Hat! We've designed this Collection for the Beach Waved girl and the Vintage Chic Doll who love their embellished head wear!

Chaemarique Communique: A bulletin fresh from the designers workshop.

One-of-a-kind vs. Duplicates; Sounds like a creative battle!
We have discovered the best way to please our customers is to offer both! We will create one-of-a-kind hats, for those who like the rarity of their headwear. We will also sell hats that can be duplicated for more then one customer! We won't do custom just yet because we have a strict color palette with the seasons collection. We spend so much time cultivating styles, designs, and color combinations to represent our brand and are so grateful it's hitting the streets!
A big thank you to all of our admirers! 


As far as determining which is "one-of-a-kind" we will label them on Etsy as "Chaemarique Unique" and every item that is higher in quantity will be considered a duplicate.

Chaemarique Unique

We have chosen to do a "Chaemarique Unique" line because we are so passionate about individual style. We know that every girl no matter what age or demographic has a "unique" taste. We also know what a catastrophe it can be for some to see someone with the same outfit on as you (GASP!).. so we can prevent that with our "Chaemarique Unique" line.

UV Rays & Bad Hair Days!

Who likes spending more than 10 minutes doing your hair? Not us. We'll say it..we have sported the "mom bun" Greyson & Aizen's whole life. We're not ashamed.
As long as we have a Chaemarique hat to accesorize with it actually looks like we achieved a "put together" look for ourselves.
Chaemarique will glady be the excuse of why you never do your hair.
Okay just kidding. Sort of.
We have put together FAST & fabulous hair styles to pair with a hat and you should try them as soon as you get your Chaemarique hat!
In a regular braid there are 3 strands. For this look, all you do is braid one of those strands beforehand and loosen it up with your fingers, then braid as usual. This creates extra texture + breaks up the mundane pattern of a regular braid.







Not only would you be cutting back time on hair maintainance but you will also be protecting your hair from excessive exposure of UV Rays which damage your hair pigment and proteins. Causing hair loss and change in color! Don't believe me? Follow the link!

Here's the part where you order a Chaemarique Hat: GO!

Daring Density

Our collection of hats are many things on the outside, but deep down beneath the stiches and pleats, they are a fashion DARE with an outpouring of inner confidence. Seriously, lets take a poll. Who thinks they "can't" pull off fashion headwear? Well the right answer is YOU CAN! And that goes for any lonely piece of clothing drapping in your closet!
With this in mind Chaemarique has decided to compile a look book so you can browse inspiring ideas on how to wear our collection in the most daring yet pleasing way! I own a few hats from Chaemarique myself and for awhile it was a tough "chocolate chip" cookie trying to find the perfect patterns of colors to fit my millinery motif! But ladies, the job is already done for you! Our look book should be completed no later then the end of November! We're excited to express ourselves through articles of clothing as well!
Just keepin' you in the Fashion Loop..
xoxo,
