the product. i love what i do each and everyday. i want you to have some of the information that we've had when we took this line anddesigned it. you do not have to be a fashion expert in order to succeed in paparazzi. however,a few tips along the way wouldn't hurt would it? you've been given a beautiful style guide.they're areas in there where you can take notes. so as we go through some of these colorpalettes, items, and trends, please take note. write and fill in everywhere. this is yourguide for the spring and summer collection. you're absolutely going to love it. so let'sget started. now this season is "expect the unexpected."normally in a spring and summer collection you're going to see tons and tons of lightcolors. however this season is marked by intense

and pungent color and that is what makes itpart of the spring and summer palettes. one of the first colors is called "radiant orchid."you can see it right here. it is a sister color to pink, it is a beautiful shade ofpurple. it is fun, vibrant, and energetic. it is different however than many of the shadesof purple you have seen before. this is considered the pantone color of the year. which meansyou're going to be seeing a lot of it. you can see in these links of this orchid thereis tons of color to be offered. it goes with many colors and many of the looks of the season.this necklace is a good example of that. as well as this lovely earring right here. youcan see again with just those marks of silver that this purple shade is beautiful and itis definitely a show stopper. you'll also

see the orchid in many of the accessories,including this darling hippie headband. it is combined with a black and white, and lateron, you'll see why that was a very deliberate choice. i also want to show you somethingfun about this hippie headband. if you align the back so you have orchid on the back, andthe black and white on the inside, your hippie headband will be worn and have a crisscrossin the front. it will wrap around, this is a head wrap version. now, look what happenswhen i change the back. when i align the black and white to this half, and the orchid tothis half, you get a knot, or twist, in the front. are you freaking out? i am too! i absolutelylove this head-wrap. it's versatile it's fun and it is definitely the color of the season.now many of you love turquoise. here's where

this palette changes a little bit. royal blue,or as we refer to it this season, dazzling blue will make a grand appearance. it is bold,it is bright, and it speaks volumes to any outfit you put it with. here you can see thisnecklace. there's also a gorgeous earring. in this version this earring, it is an ombrã©effect, so it will start out light and go into a darker shade of royal. whether it isin the lighter "crystally" palette or in this dark solid palette, that royal blue is gorgeous.now you will see this royal blue speaks very well in the nautical look. and we'll go overthat a little bit later. but, that's part of the reason for this royal, or dazzlingblue. now, you must know that yellow has alwaysbeen one of my very favorite colors. it is

so "happy," i think it invokes emotion witheverybody. you feel just sure joy when you see it. this yellow of this season is no different.welcome and greet freesia. this is a gorgeous shade of yellow. however, it's a little bitdifferent than what your customers may be expecting. we're used to kind of a "lemony"palette or a really light palette. this season, again, is marked by that pungent intense color,and freesia does that. you can see that when it is lined with gold, it has a very brighttone to it, but also it can have a very classy look. now, it can also go very fun. here aresome beautiful and fun yellow bracelets. here you can see that we have inserted seed beadsinto both of these bracelets. now, these are two different bracelets. the seed bead isa mark of the season. it's got part of that

tribal palette, also it's got a little bitof the bohemian vibe to it, which very much speaks and suits the summer season. look whathappens when you layer these two bracelets together, they are fun, they are "beachy,"but most important, they are happy. that is one of the great things about this yellow.it looks beautiful on blacks and whites. it looks beautiful with florals and prints. anythingof this season, you are going to want to make sure that they have a portion of this freesiain their closet. now, you may also be expecting a little bit lighter shade of orange, howeverthis season you are going to fall in love with celosia orange. here it is, ladies andgentleman, celosia orange is very, very strong. it is a beautiful shade. in this particularnecklace you can see these strong links and

the gold make it a very "classy" look. youcan also add something like this beautiful, orange earring with the links. it also pullsa very "classy" look and can dress up almost any outfit you put it with. however, celosiaalso has a fun loving side. you can see right here with the bangles. i absolutely adorebangles and i'm usually layered-up with some urban or multiple sets of bangles. i absolutelylove this orange bangles set. it's got a bit of a tribal accent to it in these silver accentrings. or look at this darling one. celosia very much suits itself to prints of this season,and it also has a very natural tone. you expect this color. whereas radiant orchid is notnecessarily a natural tone. it's a man-made color, so to speak. or something that looksa little exaggerated and fun. this orange

is gorgeous and you can see here, where itreally makes the difference in this palette. this is also a kind of a fun stretch and adifferent variation of a bracelet than we've ever had before. let's not stop there, we'vegot this gorgeous, long, orange, tribal, it's got a cluster at the bottom. so again, it'san excellent elongator. elongators are one of my favorite necklaces because they bringeverything in. they help us go a little bit taller and they help bring our bodies in.they're slenderizing so, tons and tons of people love to have those clusters becausethey help with that body shaping. now, hemlock is something that i think you will recognizefrom last season. although this is a different variation, hemlock has a "jade" tone. someof you may refer to it as a "mint." however

this season it's a little more green thanlast. hemlock is gorgeous, you will see it used many florally used palettes. some paisleypalettes, anything with a "peasanty" tone. it is beautiful. you can see it there in thatnecklace. now this certainly has a tribal variation to it. but, also if you look atthis ring right here. it has a very feminine touch. it has a beautiful sleek tone, it canbe used with many other colors. and again, that femininity makes it very, very spring-like.the thing i love about hemlock is, hemlock is kind of the common detonator between brightsand the dark tones. the light tones, excuse me. so here you can see this multi-necklace.now i know you absolutely adore multi, so here you can see the freesia, the dazzlingblue, orchid, and there is your hemlock. it

kind of pulls both worlds together. we absolutelylove this hemlock shade. cayenne is the variation of red this season although you'll see partsof true red with the nautical palette. you'll also see this cayenne. cayenne makes for asuper fun and vibrant shade. it's beautiful mixed with hemlock. it also goes great onthe freesia and some of those neutral tones. you can see this "fun-loving" bracelet. again,something that is very different from the bracelets that we've had before. it's accentedby this silver which makes it very bright and also has a very classy look to it. sandis the new neutral of the season. normally we've got a lot of blacks and whites and brownsand greys, but this year they have added sand. which is a variation of brown and you'll seeit appearing in our "brown" kits. but it is

"quote-unquote" a shade of tan. here is aversion of sand. you can see that they're the light mixture as well as the darker tones.sand is beautiful on any one of these spring palettes. you will help neutralize a shirt.let's say you have an orchid shirt or a dazzling blue shirt and it's very loud and strong,sand is a beautiful way to tone it, and give it a classy look. also it is available inthis darling bangle set. again, something that's a little bit different in adding inthose woods of the season. giving it a summer-esque look. three bangles in the back conjoinedby a darling heart charm we know that you love this and here it is in sand. now, here'sone thing that i'll caution you with, although these items may have been seen before or you'restill wondering when they'll be coming, don't'

panic. the things i'm telling you are acrossthe board. so we've talked a little bit about our mainpalette but there's also an accent color palette of this season. these are items that you maysee in clothing in particular. now, we do have a few accessories in these colors aswell, but they're not the colors that we're focusing on for the majority of the springcollection. however these colors are: violet, placid blue, and paloma grey. here is a perfectexample of these colors used together with some of the main palette colors. you can seehere, we've got a gorgeous cluster. obviously this is a multi-necklace, and you love them,i know. we do again have that paloma that placid, and the violet. but we also intermixsome gorgeous orchid and some beautiful hemlock.

these colors go great with the main palette.you can also find a matching bracelet. you're welcome, i know you absolutely love directmatching sets, so this is one of the directly matching sets you'll see this season. it isinter-tossed with gold, which makes it have a beautiful, kind of a feminine, sparkly touchto it. here's another example of the use of accent colors, here you can see that placiddown here and also some variations of some lighter tones. but again, not a super strongpresence. one of my favorite hippie headbands of the season is this darling violet one.you will see that his has these beautiful leather flowers on it. it's got a very prettylook to it, a very feminine element and it also has a fun texture. this is very mucha "hippie" looking headband. it very much

speaks to that sixties style. you're customersare going to absolutely going to love this headband. this is also included in your "empowerme pink" pack, so i know you're going to be so excited about that.now, we also added some colors into this season that we're going to call "paparazzi love."if you notice there's no pink contained in this spring/summer collection. but, we'rea company completely based on pink, so we added in our own shades. one of my favoritesis this gorgeous shade of pink. right here, you will see this piece in particular is alsoincluded in your "empower me pink" pack. i absolutely love the interlocking circles withthe gold. it give a fun mix between the metallic and the actual tone of pink. this is a shortnecklace. it could be classed up or it could

also give a fun-loving look to any outfit.you are going to love this. if you keep it for yourself or your customers are going toadore it if you decide to sell it off. now, we also have another version, of again, ourpaparazzi beautiful, fun pink for this spring season. this is it in a shell palette, whichagain, shell you will see in several of our summer and spring accessories. shell obviouslyvery much speaks to the look of summer. it's a natural piece and it just reminds everybodyof the beach or summer-y look. we love when we get in those shell pieces and this oneis beautiful. you'll see it in some other colors as well, some bright tones as wellas, some variations in multi. now, men of paparazzi i don't want you to feel left out,so just know, this season we've designed things

with you in mind. here are a couple of them.this is an awesome urban bracelet. it's going to come back, it has snaps. this season'smen's apparel has a texture to it. you can see that there is very much (literally ifyou touch it) has a texture. it's got fun and vibrant color and it looks "summer-y."here's another variation of that same thick fabric comes around, snaps shut. again, canbe layered up with some leather pieces that are already existing in the urban line. butthis is kind of a fun new feature that you haven't seen in the urban line up to thispoint. we've also added some new features to the urban line, as far as necklaces. you'llsee the double thatched palette here with the tan and the green, with the brown cording.it gives it that bohemian, summer-y look.

your customers are going to love it with itaccented by the metal piece on the bottom. now, i hope that all of you are currentlyselling "manyards" because you should be. but, let me tell you the reason behind it.last year at convention, tons of men came up to ryan and trent during the "men of paparazzi"season. they talked specifically about men wanting lanyards. and so we decided, you knowwhat, we should have a "manyard" collection. it is based upon a mixture of the urban lineas well as the lanyard line, collided together. we believe we have something that your customerswill love. here is an example of a "manyard" with a little bit of a funky design. it'salso got the mixture of metal, its got a very distinct look. its got the fun metal piecesvery masculine still. now, don't be caught

off guard. this line is not only for men,many women will love the "urban-y" look of the "manyard" set. but, it was focused onmen. here's another variation where you'll see a little bit of detail but not as much.they have a pull string so they are adjustable with the knot. and you can adjust them forany shape and size. we also have some "manyards" that are extremely, extremely, simple. hereyou can see one with the knot, just simple knot, and then the actual lanyard piece, clasp,on the bottom. and so we feel like we've got a "manyard" set that can suit almost any customerthat you have. from very simple to a very deliberate and distinct style. get those inyour collections it's just another way to get more people purchasing from you. so now,not only do you have the wife or the girlfriend,

you've got the husband and the boyfriend aswell. sell them everywhere. it's a great way for your partner or your husband or your father,whoever is the man in your life to get involved in the paparazzi business as well.so we've talked a little bit about the colors of the season. i know you're just dying withall the energy you've got inside of you, and all that knowledge you've got upstairs nowbut, one of the most important things you can do with that color knowledge; is to figureout how that correlates with the looks of the season. people come to you trying to accomplishsomething that they have seen in a magazine or maybe it's a looks they have seen at thestore. your job is to help them get that "quote-unquote" look. one of the main trends of this seasonis called the nautical look. it's very much

from the inspiration of the sea. its markedanchors, and helms, big bold stripes and polka-dots. it's also based on the colors of blue andred, and that beautiful gorgeous white bright. so let's talk a little bit about some of theaccessories we have in the spring and summer collection that are specific to the nauticallook. you will have noticed, and adore, and lovethe necklaces that have rope featured on them. you'll see it's marked by a knot, which again,speaks to that nautical look. we have bracelets with that same "rope-y" type look. big piecesof metal around them that give it that gauged or helm look. you have adored the boyfriendbracelets, i know you freak out every time we put a new color online. i love them too.you'll see they very much have the anchor,

literally as a charm as well as the helm.that royal blue very much speaks to this look. you've got our cayenne red as well as thetrue shade of red, just like a normal crayon red is also part of that nautical look. bright,bright, white, just a clean shade or "linen-y" version on the rope. big pieces of chain andvery distinct pieces of metal are also part of that nautical palette. now don't be confusedthat if you see these items in red, and blue, and white, that is part of this nautical look.there is also elements of that, that transform into other colors. for example: you will seethat same helm and anchor hear in a mixed metal. so we've got the gun metal and theblack. my gosh! you absolutely adored this one in silver, so here it is in the blackkit. you could also see how that same nautical

look transfers very well with the tan andthe copper. also in this palette it takes on a very classy tone, which is somethingfun of this season. that very distinct metal work and the rope doesn't have to just gowith the nautical. it can go also into other palettes as well. those are just a few ofthe examples of the nautical look. another big trend of the season is based oninspiration, drawn specifically from, geometric shapes. we're going to call it the geometriclook. you will see this intermingled everywhere. it is based on very sharp lines. you'll seetriangles, horizontal stripes, vertical stripes. anywhere where two lines comes together andusually has a point, is part of this geometric shape. you'll even see it in things like thisbracelet that i'm wearing here. this bangle

as an octagon. or you'll see it in my cuffhere, with the very linear lines. i absolutely love this trend.here are some of the few fun things we have here at paparazzi. here is a very geometricearring you can see this will obviously be in a silver. it's got those fun, very distinctlines. very elongating on the face, and again, it mimics that triangle all the way down.here is another variation on a bracelet. much more bohemian, much more of a natural tone.you can see these very linear patterns to it and those very harsh lines. but again,subtle'd by the use of these beads and the wood pieces. here is a super fun brass ring.this rolling thing, although it is a little more rounded than a straight line, you stillsee that linear line moving across the ring.

again, any of those geometric shapes are justcovered everywhere in this trend of this season. you'll see it in head wraps and hippie headbands.here's one of my favorites. it's a very distinct line across not only horizontally but you'llalso see the effects of the triangle going clear across the hippie headband. it couldbe pulled tribal as well as classy. now, this geometric pattern is also very, very stronglyassociated with the black and white trend. this season is marked by a collision of blackand white, and they come together in a very "harsh" line. there's no grey ground here,so to speak. you will see it in everything, shirts, pants, shoes, accessories. that blackand white touching, which gives it a very bold look, and a very strong line. here wehave a necklace that again, is that black

and white pattern. it creates a visual lineor visual stripe, although the pieces are rounded. here's a version of a geometric headwrap, which you will be getting in your "empower me pink" pack. i love this one. again, youcan see those very distinct shapes going all the way around. this does not only have tobe paired with black and white. this would be darling with a bright orchid shirt andyellow pants. or let's say you've got a very, you know, distinct legging and you've gota dazzling blue shirt this would be a great thing to put with it. or it could go literally,with black and white. you'll also see that black and white geometric here with the bangle.we've intermixed a white bangle with a very distinct shape on it and then it's intermixedwith the black and silver. i adore this earring.

you can see again that very distinct linegoing out, and again, that separation of the blacken line where they collide together.you get a very bold and distinct look. your customers are going to love this trend. nowhere's one of the ways to utilize color in this: many people will have this black andwhite or geometric trend come together in their clothing but how awesome is it to puta bright orchid necklace or a freesia bracelet or you could put the dazzling blue earrings,those bold colors, mixed in and added with that geometric trend. looks amazing and stunning.you'll see it mixed in with our style snapshots. you'll see a few examples in the book of thespring style guide. you are absolutely going to love that, help your customers understandthat. that this is a great way to intermix

that color in, and if you've got colored clothing,to put those black and white accents on top as well as focus on those geometric shapes.another things you are going to see this season is mixed metals. i absolutely love to mixdifferent kinds of metals together because it gives you such a versatile look. it alsoallows you to mix and match older accessories in with new ones. this season you're goingto see tons of metallic mayhem in the back office, as we mix different metals throughoutall the different metal kits. now you're going to see this mixed metal trend, both in clothing.for example: the shirt i'm wearing is a mixture of brass, and silver, and gold. i've accentedit with straight gold accessories. but you're going to also have the opportunity to takethis tone, so let's say you're wearing cayenne

and freesia or you're wearing celosia orange,you have the opportunity through accessories to add that mixed metal look in. let's startwith a couple of things that are different about this season than seasons before becauseyou know, we've talked about mixed metals before. it's something that speaks true tomy heart as i absolutely adore them. this season we have mixed silver and gold quitea bit more frequently than we have before. it gives a very bright tone, it gives a verycrisp look. you can see it has very distinct patterns. we've also added in a lot of verydistinct metals this season. you'll see some very gorgeous chains that have a very stronglook but, also a feminine feature to them. so again, this gold and silver mixture isa new thing of this season, you'll see it

a lot more frequently. we've also added insome copper and gold mixtures, which we've had before, but accented by the silver itgives it again, a very bright and crisp look. i love this brass and gold kit, or bracelet,because it gives a very vibrant look to the brass and it also gives a very interestingdynamic to this bracelet, kind of an old and new if you will. this is a gorgeous mixtureof gun metal and brass and gold. it gives a very distinct look, it also gives accentsto those-the many chains that many chains that were used in this design, and i absolutelylove this necklace. here's a gorgeous piece in copper. again, that copper gold and silvergives a very shiny look. it also gives a very distinct pattern. can you imagine this juston a plain cayenne shirt? or a plain dazzling

blue shirt. when you add elements like thisnecklace, you don't need tons of jewelry on. but again, you could mix in a mixed metalbangle or you could just have an entirely copper accent with the ring and a braceletand an earring. it gives you lots of options. this season in the mixed metal we're stillgoing to have a lot of that tribal or industrial look. with the long spikes, the elongatedchains, you're going to still see some of that studding sporadically throughout thekits, so this is another fun one where you see that mixture of old and new with the silverthat is very bright against the copper and brass shades. i absolutely love the mixedmetals this season. and again, it allows your customers the opportunity to mix and matchmany items they've got a ton of gold in their

clothing, or in their accessories already?show them one of these necklaces and allow them to give that a new look, and kind offunk it up a bit. and again, stacking or layering those bracelets allows you to get that mixedmetal look. gold is still one of the hottest trends of the season, it is the color of metal,so to speak. so again, those gold pieces that you have already, or your customers have already.keep on, keeping on with those they are going to love them and they're going to continueto fly off the shelf. you're going to see tons and tons of printsthis season everywhere you look you're going to see mini florals, and paisleys, and distinctstripes, and just all kinds of fun things. tribals and accents are still everywhere.they are so, so fun to accessorize. let me

show you a few ways to do that. let's saysomebody has some leggings that have a very distinct pattern, for example a tribal, they'vegot a plain shirt. look how fun this necklace is. again, a very distinct tribal patternthat gold and black, which is very harsh and classy. that is a great way to accent throughthose patterns. we've also got this darling and gorgeous, i love this wood bangle. again,very distinct tribal look to it. we've also got little bits of this tribal pattern, andyou'll see, dabbled amongst all of the kits. here it is in a copper. the pattern is a littlebit more of a texture, again though, that triangle and aztec type look throughout theearring. these are all different ways that you can accessorize that pattern. now, let'ssay you have a floral. one of the easiest

ways for us to help accessorize that floralpattern or bring it in, in an accessory, is in the hair accessories. the hair accessoriesthis season are so bright and so fun. you can see this gorgeous shade of orchid, thisvery bright and bold stripe, but it's also got this aztec-y wave to it. this gorgeousand darling knot which gives it a very vintage-y look with that. again, purples, blues, andthen tones of pink and yellow. clips also. this very distinct orange pattern offset bya red polkadot, so nautical as well as that geometric are both represented here in thehairclips. these are an excellent way to tie in that pattern palette this season. now,let's say you have a floral print shirt and you want a way to accessorize it. the multior plane color bracelet. this is a darling

one. for example, you'll see many of thesecolors in a floral print, or maybe you just add a plane hemlock bracelet or freesia yellowearrings. use those solid colors to help accent those floral or patterned palettes of clothing.thanks paparazzi! i love spending time with you. i hope the information we've talked abouttoday, you'll find helpful. i hope you can take it back to your customers and give themoptions as they're shopping around. but more importantly, i hope you party, party, party!we were born to party here at paparazzi. i love to party and i know you do too.
