OOTD: I Dream of Genies

As I've stated in previous posts, I am utterly obsessed with jogger pants. I've never known just how much chicness and comfort one style of pant could withhold. My mother purchased these pants for me at Kohl's which I paired with a brown top, sandals, and a few accessories. 

The jogger pants have a more silky feel to them with an Aztec/tribal print. The pants also tighten around the ankles. My shoes are from DSW. These sandals are super comfortable because the heels have rubber on the bottom. 

I kept my hair simple and out of my face by rolling the two sides back into a half up/half down look. This hairstyle also help to show off my long owl earrings and necklace. For jewelry, I also wore two simple rings and two gold bracelets. 

OOTD: Soft Denim and Spring Flowers

It finally felt like spring so I had to pull out my favorite floral pants paired with a light denim top and my new oxford cutouts. I absolutely loved thee casual yet girly look of this outfit. I purchased my floral jeans a year ago at Delia's, I purchased my denim top about two years ago at Marshall's, and my shoes are from Marshall's as well. I decided to keep my hair up in a ponytail to keep it out of my face and wore minimal jewelry and makeup.

How is your week so far?

OOTD: Print Crazy Peplum

You probably have already figured out that I have a slight obsession with printed pants, but I just can't  help it. I love pairing my printed pants with a solid color up top, but this blue structured peplum top I found for under $10 was even better because of it's unique style. The look has just the amount of color I like to wear without being a neon bright highlighter and paired with my grey sneaker wedges, the print on the pants is toned down.

The back of the peplum top is a deep scoop that shows off the back while still covering up the shoulder blades and bar clasps. The peplum aspect of the top gives me more of a defined waist and shape while the pants fit more like jeggings fitting more snug and comfy on my legs. My sneaker wedges help to emphasize my legs since any type of wedge on a shoe helps to make your legs look longer and leaner.

As for accessories, I wore a couple or small rings, a boyfriend watch, and a ponytail holder just in case I wanted to pull my hair up. The shoes have spike details that stand out against the grey of the shoe and in my opinion work as a major point within my whole look. The pattern on my pants is actually a mixture of grey and white tree branches, leaves, and bird cages with splashes of yellow throughout.

How do you style crazy pattern?

Printed Jeans: Vera wang Princess (Khol's)

Sneaker Wedges: Guess (Macy's)

OOTD: Studs, Leather, Cheetah!

You may not know this about me, but ever since I saw the Cheetah Girls movie on Disney Channel I've always had a weakness for cheetah print. Animal print in general is a cool and easy way to add a pattern to your outfit without feeling like a walking abstract painting. I wore my letterman jacket over my top while I was outside to keep warm while sticking with my laid back look. The leather pants are part of my new pants obsessions, they are a mix of simple and edgy since they are a solid color but they also have a slight shimmer and are of course leather. The leather and animal print put together make me so edgy, especially with the edition of my spike detailed sneaker wedges!

I decided to keep the construction of the outfit simple by pairing a print with a solid. The cheetah print top was very easy to pair with the red leather pants since it only consists of two colors. The shoes are my grey Guess sneaker wedges that work with just about anything and add a laid back feel to any outfit. The stud details on the back of the shoes also add an edgy and kick-butt look to the whole look. I wanted to feel casual, trendy, and fun look with this outfit which I totally felt all day. 

As for hair and accessories, I kept it very minimal so I wanted take away from my outfit. I wore my everyday gold watch, a few small rings, silver hoop earrings, and my favorite "dream" rubber bracelet. My eye make-up consisted of a BB cream, mascara, and a thin cat eye. I put bantu knots in my hair the night before which gave my hair a slight wave. Also, this may sound a bit cliche, but I was sure to wear a smile and confidence all day long to compliment the look.

OOTD: Christmas Day

It may be a little late to say Merry Christmas, but it's still the holiday season! Christmas for me is all about spending time with the family in a more casual environment, no cocktail dresses necessary. However, I still love to dress up which explains my sequin flats, red leather pants, sparkly sweater combo. My overall look makes me feel edgy, glam, and super sparkly while still being comfortable and not over the top. My sweater is actually cropped, but it is way too cold to be showing off my stomach so I put a black cami underneath and let the sparkly neck stand out. The red leather pants are super comfy and even have a light shimmer to them which allows them to work for both casual and dressy occasions. The flats are actually one of my Christmas gifts that I couldn't resist wearing to give my outfit some extra color and glam. Last but not least I piled on the rings along with my gold Betsey Johnson watch and two beautiful bracelets from my mom and sister.

 

What are you wearing for the holidays?

OOTD: Blue Striped Bows

The fall and winter season always seems to make peoples wardrobes 50 shades darker, but not mine. I love adding color, graphics, and patterns to my look all year round no matter the season! For this outfit I decided to you all three of my favorite things, as you can see I used the color in my jeans and the patterns and graphic in my shirt. The blue pants work fot the season because they aren't extremely bright which gives a more understated look. The top also helps to tone down the top and give persoanlity, uniqueness to the look, and overall more fun! The black combat boots are just my go to pair of shoes, they always make me feel edgy and are comfty for my feet. I didn't add too many accesssories because I didn't want anything taking away from my clothes and I kept my hair in a high messy bun.

What are you wearing today? 

OOTD: Leather and Letterman

 So I decided that it's finally to pull out my favorite pair of leather pants! It's been so windy outside I had to have something to cover up and warm my legs while still feeling super cute and chic. I paired my leather pants with a cute crop top with a black cami underneath and my grey and white Letterman jacket. By the way, this is the Letterman jacket I have been talking about forever! The jacket is super warm, but not smothering so it's perfect for fall weather. Lastly, I just threw on my grey tennis shoes to break up all the black while going along with the colors of my jacket, plus they're super comfy.

 Here you can see a more detailed look of my top, I especially love the sequin detail of the owl's wing. However, I wore my jacket most of the day because of the cold weather. I always have to wear a belt to keep my pants up so I put on my black leather, silver studded belts. My accessories include 2 gold rings on each hand, my JLANI Jewels ring/bracelet chain, my Free Spirit bracelet, and gold Betsey Johnson boyfriend watch.

 I also wore my favorite ear accessory, my gold leaf cuff. I think it looks so good mixed in with my hair, because it glitters and dangles through. Judt to let you know, I did not cut my hair! I had layers put in about a month among so when I curl the front of my hair under it looks shorter than it really is, but it's still healthy and strong!

 Let me know what your wearing today in the comments below!

OOTD: Blue, Black, Camo

I have been rocking these camo skinny jeans for 2 years now, so it is definitely time to make a new outfit with them. Instead of pairing the jeans with a black crop top, white tee, or tan sweater, I thought I would add a pop of color. I immediately thought of my blue top, it goes with the edgy look perfectly because of the sheer black sleeves, the sharp angled bottom cut, and the buttons. I decided to wear my wedge army booties to give me some height since the shirt is long and could start to look too drapey if I were to have worn flats.

My silver hoop earrings, black rubber bracelet, and an assortment of rings were the perfect accessories for my outfit. I went with black mascara and a little bit of a winged liner look for my make-up, nothing too extreme since the weather is so humid these days. As for my hair, it was really curly and big from being in a braid out so I pinned the top part backwards and fluffed out the back of my hair.

This look is perfect for everyday wear and all you need is a leather jacket to throw on in case it gets cold.

OOTD: Black, Brown, and Booties

 Today I decided to go casual with a tiny bit of edge. I paired a brown and black striped crop top with denim skinny jeans with one of m favorite pairs of wedge booties. The top even has a drapey like fabric at the top that reminds of a scarf and complements my collar bone which I love. The overall look is comfortable, full of soft but strong colors, and makes me feel great and the height of the wedges help to make me feel even more on top of the world.

I had to do a cute leg pose to shoe off one of my favorite pairs of booties! These booties are so edgy and put me in a military, tough vibe. The straps, shoelaces, and grey/brown color allow the boots to go with just about anything! The height is high for some people's taste, but since it is a wedge they are much easier and comfortable to walk in.

 

 For my accessories I paired my everyday Betsey Johnson watch with a couple small rings in gold and silver as well as my JLANI Jewels multilink bracelet/ring chain duo. The jewelry combo is so delicate and elegant that it makes it's own little statement and goes perfect with my outfit.

Tell me your Outfit of the Day!

OOTD: Ombre Down

This ootd was all about mixing summer color with fall basics. Fall is all about skinny jeans and long sleeves, while summer is about trying new trends and wearing lots of bold color. The entire outfit just makes me happy especially my pink ombre jeans and yellow, pink, and gold necklace.

 The top is a long denim button down which I of course buttoned up and tucked in. This top has been featured in several of my ootd posts, but this is the first time I have ever worn it this way, it was time for something different. Since the top is just denim, I dressed it up with a beautiful necklace that somehow got stuck underneath my top, my bad! The necklace reminds of a chandelier because it tiers down with yellow and pink mixed with gold in an upside down triangle.

 The jeans and shoes are the standout of the outfit. My mom actually got me these pair of jeans from JCPenney and I fell in love with them! They can be worn casually with a t-shirt or casually dressy like my outfit. The jeans add a bold flair and are unique since they are not all over color. The shoes help to lengthen my leg since they are tall and wedges and also because they are pink like the pants. The jeans and the shoes add a fun, bold, and unique flair!



OOTD: Casual Florals

OOTD: Topknot and Flowers

I am so in love with my H&M dress! The dress gives me a girly and edgy feel all in one, plus it makes my legs look great! The dress is an all over colorful floral pattern with hints of black that stand out. This dress is a tad too short for me to wear to school, but it is perfect for any day when you just want to wear a dress.

The dress gives me a bit of an hourglass shape because it is a-line and has very precise seam lines. It also has a body-con type feel because it hugs my body very snug. The only issue is that you need to wear smooth undergarments because they will show through the dress and visible panty lines aren't cool!

I stayed very simple with my accessories because of the busy pattern of my dress so I only wore a very small pair of green earrings, three small rings, and my everyday gold watch. I also wore a black pair of wedge booties that I have fallen in love with, but you can take the look grungey with combat boots. I decided since I really wanted to show of my dress to throw my hair up into a high topknot and no make-up.

*Just to let you guys know, my dress is from H&M for $17.95 and my shoes are from Rack Room Shoes for around $30.00.*

OOTD: Studs and Bows

I am so in love with my new studded combat boots which can be worn folded up or down. I decided to go black and grey with this outfit because I wanted my smile to bring in all the personality and color. As you can see I wore a pair of super skinny grey leggings and a flowy bow shirt. The top is actually out of the little girls section, but we can keep that between me, you, and the blog. Since I can't show any of my midriff at school, I put a very dark black camisole underneath. I didn't wear any make-up, but I did jazz up my hair by adding a big braid across the front, sparkly studded earrings, and my signature Betsey Johnson watch. This is a great outfit choice for my slow transition into fall.

Outfit Of The Day: Sporty Stripes

 This week has  been full of homework and projects, which pribably reflects in the amount of blog posts I posted this week. Sorry guys! All week I've been trying to stay casual, but still cute. This look is just a striped light sweater, super skinny jeans, converse, and a few accessories.

 The striped sweater was perfect because all my classrooms are chilly and I wanted to have a sporty look. The super skinny jeans are actually super comfortable and I think they show off the shape of my legs. Since I wanted to lengthen out my legs without wearing heels, I paired my blue jeans with my blue Converse low tops. Matching the color of your shoes to your pants give you extra height!

Although I didn't get a good picture of my accessories, I wore my usual Betsey Johnson watch, a few small gold rings, and my gold ear cuff to spice things up. I wore my hair down and straight only because I felt like I did a top knotch flat iron job, which is rare for me. All together a busy week equals comfty outfits, but they can still be cute!

What do you wear during a busy week?

Outfit Of The Day: Cute 'N Casual



 It was all about being casual, comfy, but still super cute in this outfit of the day. With lots of quizzes, tests, and science labs you don't want to be to over the top because sadly, it is not always a fashion show. I decided to go with a comfy tee and nice pair of skinny jeans, but of course I had to add my own flair to what seems like an "average" look.

Instead of a plain white tee, I took  dark pink hi-low tee shirt and tucked the front half into my jeans. This shirt is so versatile because you can wear it loose, tie it on the side, or tuck it in! My jeans are light colored and almost have an acid wash look. Not only are my jeans light, but they also have small flower details all over which add major flair! These jeans can be paired with any top because of the colors and fit very snug and comfortable.

I paired the look up with a pair of heavy oxfords, a gold boyfriend watch, a small necklace, and a couple of my favorite rings. I pulled my hair up into a high, big bun and since it was so humid I went with no make-up. My outfit of the day shows that even on the most stressful days when you feel like bumming it, you don't have to! Just take the basics and add your own style and flair.


Floral Skinny Jeans- Target
Hi-Low Tee Shirt- JCPenney's
Oxfords- Rack Room Shoes

OOTD: First Day Of School

My first day back to school was yesterday and I really wanted a casual summer-y look. I achieved my look by pairing up some floral print capris and a plain white tee. The capris definitely added the personality while the shirt kept it from being too overboard. I paired the look with my pink wedges that match the flowers on my capris and give me a major height boost. My jewelry is kept simple since I am only wearing a statement flower ring, gold watch, and small leaf earrings. If you notcied, I was inspired by Beyonce's hair in her Single Ladies video and tried the half up-half down with a slight tease hairstyle. The outfit was great for a first day back to school, but if your not comfortable with heels, a cute pair of flats would work just as well!

Outfit Of The Day: Summer Florals

Floral jeans and a denim button up are staple items in my wardrobe right now. They can both be worn seperately with a completely different look, or in this summery casual look I am wearing above. This outfit is perfect for a day that is not extremely hot, but it is still very warm. It is also very casual while still being a bit daring and super trendy!

I always toggle between wearing my denim button up down or crop it up by tying it in the front. Either way works for the look , but for chose to tie it up to give a fun, carefree vibe. I paired a purple cami underneath to bring out the purple and pink flowers in my floral jeans.

My shoes are just everyday flats that sparkle in silver glitter! As you may have figured out, these are the same skinny jeans I wore in an earlier OOTD post, I just rolled them up to make them more heat appropriate. My jewlery consists of my favorite Betsey Johnson boyfriend watch, a flower ring, and a butterfly ring. Can you see my nails sporting the butterfly design as well?
