DUDINE: Moderne's Latest Jewelry Obsession

Dudine (doo-deen) 1. a female dude 2. a slang word originating from New York City in the late 19th century describing someone who is fancy or sharp in dress and demeanor.

ShopModerne is thrilled to announce a new jewelry line to hit our store. Oozing chic style with inspiration from designer Jen Kramer's travels around the world, you will want to add each unique piece to your jewelry collection.

"Each season's collection is inspired by Jen's travels to a specific region, with 10% of that collection's profits going to a charity that works in the region. Your purchase of the Mexican Vagabond collection will benefit the Thousand Smiles Foundation (www.thousandsmiles.org), a non-profit organization that provides life-saving surgery to Mexican children suffering from gross maxillo-facial deformities such as cleft palate."

While shopping, Dudine, you will not only be adding great statement pieces to your jewelry set but be helping a great cause. Not only does Dudine make you look good, it helps you DO good too!

Jen launches Dudine with the Mexican Vagabond collection - highlighting Frida- a major dudine.

With your choice of brass or silver, turn up the heat on any look.

Moderne Tutorial: 25 Ways to Wear A Scarf

The beauty that is a scarf.

An accent piece to make your ''look'', a functional piece to keep you warm, and most of all a stylish accessory to help you survive the upcoming season.

If you are anything like me your scarf wrapping skills are rather basic - limited to a handful of looks.

Came across this awesome 5 min tutorial video by Wendy Nguyen of Wendy's Lookbook showcasing 25 ways to wear a scarf!

Some of these looks are super creative and definitely stylish!

From your casual looks to even variations of the infinity scarf, Wendy shows us how to take 1 scarf and style it in 25 different ways.

Can't wait to try a bunch of these over the next few weeks.

Now, what scarf to use?

Might we suggest the amazing Tolani scarves available at Moderne?

Tolani - Oversized Leopard Print Scarf - $92.00

As seen on Kim Kardashian

What's your favorite way to wear a scarf?

Make sure you don't leave home without the ultimate winter accessory: the scarf

Spotted: Ashley Tisdale in Lovers + Friends Sway Open Back Black Lace Dress

Ashley Tisdale at the Footloose Premiere

It was only a matter of time before a starlet wore this Lovers+ Friends beauty out on the town. This black lace / nude underlay dress is perfect for a premiere, but also for a date night, night on the town and don't forget the holidays.

Loving the dramatic lip, free flowing hair and the nude platforms to enlongate the toned stems!

PS: The sexiest part of the dress? The BACK.

Lovers + Friends Sway Open Back Dress in Black ($165)

Style Diary: The Little Black Dress

Every girl needs a Little Black Dress (aka LBD) to slip into right before that first date or night out on the town with the girlfriends, but they aren't so easy to find! We know from personal experience that finding that LBD is somewhat of a challenge. Do you go with the traditional A-line cut, or do you get a little funky with the ruffles & layers? There are so many options out there in the fashion realm that picking out the perfect look can make you go insane!

Since we know the trials & tribulations of the infamous LBD, we are here to help you!

Featured above is the Lovers + Friends collection. We just can't get enough of the Sway Open Black Dress in Victorian Lace that would be perfect for that first date night with the boy toy. You can just dress it up with some simple earrings & just let the lace do the rest of the work!

Another favorite is the Blue Heart Pleated Mini Dress in Black. Toss on some chunky jewelry to transform this dress into a fun & funky look that you can dance the night away in.

Oh, and always remember that you can never go wrong with a nude heel to make those legs look longer than ever! Our suggestions is to step into some Jeffrey Campbell's- they are the hottest thing right now.

So whether you are dressing to impress or de-stress, follow your Lovers + Friends into a LBD that won't let you down!

Brand Alert: NAVEN Maven's

You have seen celebs like Kristen Calvalari and Khloe Kardashian rock these out-of-the-ordinary structured dresses at the most recent events in Hollywood, but did you ever think about the designer behind these bright pieces?

Well, we did our research & we are even more obsessed with the brand after finding out the deets about this dynamic duo!

The twins started their line back in 2007 in Los Angeles, California. Even though they are based out of the City of Angels, their lines are mostly inspired by their European backgrounds. They were quoted saying, "We're a team in every aspect of the word, a team that works hard, plays hard, values family above all, a team that's always chasing our dream of making NAVEN a house hold name in the Fashion Industry." And we couldn't be happier that they are chasing those dreams and dressing us in fabulous threads!

OK, so enough jibber-jabber...here are some looks that from Naven that you can find at Moderne. Enjoy!

Pop, Shop and Doo Wop- Bruno Mars Concert - Las Vegas

What a blast. Moderne was on site and alongside our favorite snacks, popchips, for the Bruno Mars concert in Las Vegas!

J spent most of her day working alongside the popchips Vegas teams- who are all incredible.

Great little photo op with the backdrop (in the photo above) ... and we all got our own props too

Let's just say Bruno Mars is one talented artist. His songs were just as amazing live, as they are recorded.. you know they are talented when they sound better in person than on their CD.

From a box in the Pearl at the Palms - Las Vegas

Nothing better than listening to Bruno Mars serenade you in a Moderne outfit while snacking on popchips from a box!

Moderne is so thrilled to be a part of the amazing gift basket thatw as given to Bruno Mars ..

The pop, shop and doo wop basket if you will.

A big thank you to Bruno Mars to snapping a shot with his full gift basket of goodies.
Hopefully Bruno Mars liked the shirts we gifted to him.
Curious to know what he got in the basket?

Moderne picked out the following items for Bruno:

Denim Button Down from Just A Cheap Shirt

Assorted Alternative Apparel / Alternative Earth Tees

And of course, Miss Kelly Guldi from popchips Vegas and J rocked Moderne and they enjoyed their concert experience!

Kelly: Amanda Uprichard - Lime Racerback Tunic + Black Shorts + Layered Necklaces

J: Mink Pink - MARS Volta Tank + Black Shorts + Michael Antonio Platform Pumps

A big, huge THANK YOU to Kelly Guldi and popchips Vegas for allowing Moderne to be part of this great event. Had a blast, and can't wait for the next show!!
