Image
Written by Victoria - UCSD Photo Credit As the weather starts heating up — at least in some parts of the country — we all start dreaming of summer days ahead. And with Spring Break here for many of us, we’ll be enjoying those warm temperatures a little early on our various vacations. So, this week on Style Remix, we’re featuring a classic warm weather combo: a tank top and denim shorts . Before we reveal our outfits, here are a few tips on how to get the most for your money when shopping for tanks and shorts: 1. When choosing a summery tank, choose a bold color that gives a glow to your skin. This is different for everyone — experiment to see which colors bring out the best in you. (Also see our tips on how to find your perfect colors.) Also, breezy tanks that float past the hips are generally the most versatile: they can be worn tucked in, half-tucked, or not tucked in at all, and they can be worn with skirts, shorts, or pants.

Written by Shelby - Rollins College Photo Credit She may be 23 now, but Taylor Swift ‘s latest single (and video), “ 22 “, shows us that we can live like we’re 22, even if it’s just for the night. From having breakfast at midnight to dressing up like hipsters, this super fun and totally catchy song has plenty of suggestions for ways to let loose. I’ve had it on repeat for about the past week and it is by far one of my favorites off of Red. She recently just released a super fun video for the song, featuring a group of her friends “dancing like they’re 22? in different locations. If you haven’t seen it, catch it below!

Written by Lara - University of British Columbia As the weather gets warmer, we get into that awkward period where it’s too cold for just one layer, but too hot for a full-on winter jacket. I’ve seen girls walking around campus in some strange half-and-half looks – the classic example of which is Daisy Dukes, Uggs and a sweatshirt. (Why is this a thing?) Clearly, there’s some confusion about what makes a practical, yet fashionable springtime look. So what’s a fashion-conscious girl about campus to do? Check out our guide, of course! Last week, we talked about winter-to-spring transitional fashion, and today we’ve got three more cute outfits to help you transition your wardrobe to spring . Necklace, Boots, Jeans, Sweater, Vest, Bracelet Dressing for warmth doesn’t mean you have to forgo bright spring colors!

The Buddhi Batiks Srilanka

The Buddhi Batiks Way Batik is a craft that combines the illustrative skills of an artist with a wax-resist dyeing technique applied to natural fabrics like cotton, silk, and linen. At Buddhi Batiks, the craft is practiced by women, some of whom have been with us since the company’s inception in 1970; they are the lifeblood of our business. Our batik workshop, located in the village of Koswadiya in the tropical island of Sri Lanka, in turn plays an integral role in the economy of the village. Each piece that is produced at Buddhi Batiks is hand-painted in wax by these talented artisans, and hand-dyed by experienced dye masters in a seemingly unlimited variety of colours, ranging from the most vibrant of hues to the subtlest, softest pastels and creams. The piece is then boiled and sun dried, and the process repeated over for every additional colour. Each piece is therefore a unique product of several artisans' tender care; each piece is a unique work of batik art.
