The SHG – 3 Haute Coats For The Holidays

imageThe Holiday season is officially upon us! This means lots of festive gatherings, cheer and good food! And festive gatherings means festive ensembles. But with this season full of love also comes a season full of freezing days and extreme elements. A warm winter coat is the best way to look stylish, stay warm and add a winter touch to any ensemble. A holiday coat should be a style that is classic and versatile, while being flattering and just a touch dressy. We have our three favorite styles of winter coats that’ll keep you toasty and tasteful all season long!



Pea Coat – This classic number is a winter coat staple. The thick material keeps you toasty, while the structured look is flattering and versatile. Pea coats can come in varying lengths, but opt for one that is more traditional for a look that’s in year after year. The A-line structure makes layering easy and it’s unisex appeal makes it equally cute with heeled boots or mens-inspired oxfords! Try a pop color for something a little more unique!



Cape – This style of outerwear is at once traditional and unique. Reminiscent of Christmas carolers, the cape is a look that is very winter appropriate, very cute and extremely comfortable (just remember to find a style with arm holes!) Due to it’s voluminous shape, layering is easy, but remember to keep the bottom sleek to avoid looking larger than you are. Try opaque tights and ankle boots!



Long Cinched Coat – The length is flattering and flirty because when paired with knee socks or tights, a long coat resembles a dress and flaunts long legs. The cinched waist creates an hourglass shape and makes for a more dressy style. A long cinched coat can be as casual or fancy as you please. Look for one that’s made of canvas or nylon for an everyday coat, or find one with fun embellishments like a fur trimmed collar or covered buttons for a special occasions coat!

Street Style – Trends To Try For Thanksgiving Week

imageActual Thanksgiving isn’t until this Thursday, but the week that marks the start of the holiday season is officially here. Besides our own family dinners, many of us also have invites to other Thanksgiving Day parties, be it a gathering of friends or an office potluck. While Thanksgiving is one of the more casual holidays, it’s still important to dress to impress! But it’s equally important to stay toasty and comfortable and allow enough room in the waistband to tuck into seconds of your favorite dish.


Chunky knits and long layers are a great way to stay warm and stylish, and also allows you to remove pieces as needed. Choosing a pop color for your party ensemble is also a smart move, making your look eye-catching and festive, but still lets you choose looser fitting pieces if you so choose. Need a more dressy option? Tiered lace and sheer fabrics are romantic, feminine and the added volume helps hide a belly growing from plates of turkey and mashed potatoes! Now is also the perfect time to test drive that pair of super sexy, purely amazing and ridiculously uncomfortable heels that you’ve been dying to rock! With so much sitting at the dinner table of lounging around couches, you’ll be able to stay off your feet but still make a statement with your shoes!

Couture In The City’s 5 Sweater Dresses To Love!

imageTalk about sweater dresses and below are favorites I picked basically explain about the style more so than what it€™s made from. Sweater dresses are such wonderful garments! They’re soft, easy to move around in, flattering, dressy enough for work, but casual enough for walking the dog. Here are some of my favorites for this fall and winter.


The Ash Sweater Dress by Mark & James is perfect for so many looks. It’s cut generously on top, with loose, long sleeves, but with a more fitted skirt. It echoes the 80s looks we’re seeing so much of, but is far more flattering due to an ultra-feminine cut and a texture that moves without clinging. Wear this with over-the-knee boots and turn heads!

3 Celeb Hair Secrets We’re Sharing With You!

imageStylehive Hair Series Powered by Pantene




Celebs always seem to have perfect hair. Whether it’s a precise updo, or a tousled bed head style, celeb always step out looking like a million bucks. But, in fact, their hair ‘dos cost nothing close! With a few easy and affordable tricks of the trade, celebs can rest assured that they’ll always step out looking perfectly coiffed and polished. So just what are these tricks of the trade anyway? We’ve gathered three super simple and quick celeb hair secrets that anyone can try and succeed at, making sure that we all get to step out looking like a million bucks … for a fraction of the price!



Hair Extensions – Not all of us are born with a head of thick, lush hair that can grow to incredible lengths, but all of us can fake it! Go ahead and splurge on high quality hair extensions and either clip them in yourself, or go the next step and get them professionally done. It’s better to spend a little more now than to spend multiple times on mediocre extensions because high-quality extensions look and feel more real, last longer and can be re-used when taken care of properly.



Root Perm – Not ready to have hair that isn’t yours just yet? Try a simple root perm to add more volume to your hair. A root perm adds lift to the base of hairs to give an appearance of thicker, more luxurious locks. A root perm is only applied to a small section of hair near the crown so there’s minimal damage, and they last from two to four months.



Wispy Side-Swept Bangs – Wispy bangs brushed nonchalantly to the side are always a sensual look. Make sure the fringe is not too heavy as that can weigh down a look, and opt for an eye-grazing length as opposed to a blunt, short style for added sex appeal. Wispy, side-swept bangs work whether the hair is down or in a sophisticated up-do!
