Casual, Chic, Comfortable

13 Aug

This outfit is all about the 3 C’s; casual, chic, and comfortable. Crepe shirts are fantastic because they are light, airy and modern. (View video on net-a-porter.com to see how the shirt looks off the rack!) To create the perfet balance, match with a skinny jean. *Remember, if you’re wearing a loose top, go with a tighter bottom and vice -versa* Since the shirt is colored, you can pair dark accessories to complement it, such as the above look, where I chose black booties and a shiny navy tote. I would recommend this outfit when you’re running around town on the weekend and getting things done- keeping it stylin’ and casual!

Fall Prints

6 Aug

With fall just around the corner, you should really start getting into shopping for prints. Prints can be done in many ways; sophisticated, fun, trashy, and confusing. Try to go for the sophisticated and fun ones more! You’ll probably choose a dress such as this Zero+MariaCornejo one for work or a classy night out. I loved this print because it definitely relates to fall, the trees and the slightly clouded sky. Even though there isn’t a huge amount of color in this dress, you can bring it out by adding yellow or light green accessories such as the yellow BALENCIAGA tote. I decided to also stick with the leafy, fall theme and choose a leaf patterned cuff, and an elegant necklace. With the  meatllic, silver JImmy Choo shoes, I brought out the grays, but you can definitely go with a gold tinted shoe as well.

Chasing the Sun

2 Aug

Yellow is the most gorgeous color to wear during the summer. Be one with the sun, with this modern, yellow dress with an accented gold waist belt. Gold emphasizes yellow beautifully so I decided on that theme for the accessories and shoes. With this outfit you’ll be shining, and chasing the sun 😉

Loosen it Up!

26 Jul

Usually, when a woman is on a date or simply a party,they want to look and feel at their best. But if you’re in an awfully figure flattering or tight dress, you can’t really relax because you’ll feel uptight. With this gorgeous blue draped dress you will look beautiful and not have to worry about sucking it in 😉 You can definitely mix metallics, but I decided to pair this dress with silver accessories as you can spot in the silver platform, stud earings, necklace, cuff bracelet, and clutch. I just find the combination of grays and blues to be magnificent. Try this look on your next time out.
