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?

If you would like to know where any of the items I am wearing are from just comment below!

Inspired Style: Fergie 70's Romantic

Fergie Clothes
Fergie
Fergie's 70's Romantic inspired style looks fabuous on her because she owns it. The look may not be for everyone, but inspired styles are always great to try out. Fergie starts by ttaking a flowly cream dress that almost has a grecian look and takes it into a 70's hippie vibe by adding a long fringe vest. She also adds tough boots to add a little edge and an oversized bags to carry all the necessary items. The romance touch of the look comes from the flowiness of each peice in her outfit and the 70's inspiration comes just from a dding the fringe vest. Each part of the look can even look great just on its own. Don't forget to add trendy, laid-back accessories such as aviators and leather, braided bracelets and necklaces like Fergie. Get inpspired ladies and take on a whole new element of fashion!

Love Her Style: Chloe Grace Moretz

Look #1
Look #2

Chloe Grace Moretz is a style crush of mine and I remember her as an actress back in the first Diary of  a Wimpy Kid movie. Chloe always has such unige quirks to her outfits, while still being super fashionable and chic. Chloe's beauty looks are always natural which is great because she is a teen star and it shows natural beauty is always best. Look #1 is a great for a formal occassion where you don't want to be too done up. Chloe's dress has a super cute print and the belt around her waist gives her frame a little bit more shape. Her shoes are simple, but scream chic to me, I am really into round toed heels lately! Look #2 is the perfect outfit for the spring and summer seasons. Chloe's monochromatic look is absolutely gorgeous against her skin tone and would also be a great look on anyone else. What really makes the look pop is her use of accessories, Chloe's hat and long statement necklace just add more coolness to th overall look. Don't forget her super cute peep toe heels which have a cute buckle accent on the side. Try out looks with unique quirks to have a little bit of Chloe Grace Moretz's style.

Fashion 101: Music Festivals

Vanessa at Coachella 2012
Kate Bosworth at Coachella 2012
Music festivals are all the rage during the spring/summer season and they are also the best place to let loose and be free. Music festivals usually have a an indie edge to them and because they are outside most of the time they also require some comfort. I am loving Vanessa's Hudgens outfit which she wore to Coachella 2012, a music festival, she kept her outfit stylish and majorly cool. The high wasited, acid wash shorts added chicness to her indi ensemble. Vanessa's crotchet top is very unique and looks super comfty and her fringe satchel bag is great for carrying anything you need during the day. Kate Bosworth is taking a more casual chic look at Coachella 2012 and wears dark wash cutoffs, a black tee, and a light throwover jacket. Kate's outfit is perfct for someone who doesn't have a lot of indie/bohemian attire and wants to still look trendy. I love that Kate's outfit is very simple but she makes it stand out with the detials in her jacket and her tan boots. Who knew boots could actually work with short shorts?! Don't forget to complete your music festival look you have to go a little au nautrale and rock the wavy hair and light make-up. Try out the look and head out to jamming music festival!

Outfit Of The Day: Modern Mod


Today's outfit of the day showcases a new mod style dress that I absolutely love. The dress came from Marshall's and is super comfortable and makes me feel great. The dress gives me a mod feel and even reminds me of dresses that Twiggy wore in her modeling days. I paired the dress with minimal accessories because I wanted to let the dress stand out, especially the black sides which give me more of an hourglass shape. I did wear a cute pair of oxfords with my dress, but I love going barefoot which explains why my feet are cutoff in the pictures. My beauty look consists of no make-up, but I did try out a new curly hairstyle which I pinned to the side. I love it for spring!
What do you think about my modern mod look?

Get The Look: Printed Pants

Look #1
Look #2
Printed pants have been on my radar lately! I am loving the use of print as a pant or jean opposed to only being used in a shirt or skirt. Printed pants may look a bit intimidating at first, but they actually work perfectly with any outfit and have an unexpected look. Look #1 shows a gorgeous Miranda Cosgrove sporting a mix of edgy and girly style. The use of a hat and glitzy accessories even add a quirky, glam vibe   The look is great for spring because of the flowly top and the blues and purples in the jeans. The print of the jeans add playfulness and "look at me" power. Look #2 is quirky,cool and looks nice on Beyonce. I love how the print of her pants take her look from being normal and the blazer puts it all together. A print of pants such as these could even work in different colors and still look great! We can't forget about Beyonce's use of a hat, rounded glasses and a beautiful baby.

Love Her Style: Jennifer Lawrence



Look #1
Jennifer Lawrence Shoes
Look #2
Jennifer Lawrence knows just how to take a tomboy personality and trnsform it into  chic and trendy style. Jennifer dresses to fit her own body and never dresses overly sexy or too sweet. She knows her personality and style which helps make her confidence and outfits look so amazing. Look #1 is a very laid back, quirky outfit that is perfect for wearing anywhere by just switching out the heels for oxfords during the early day. I love that she paired a flowly navy skirt with a slouchy shirt that remained feminine by showing off a bit of clevage. Look #2  shows off Jennifer's toned body and curves and is super chic. The striped tee prevents the look from being boring and the strappy heels add some detail to her bottom half. I am loving Jennifer's sunglasses and the fact that she chose a gold necklace.
How are you liking Jennifer Lawrence's style?

Love Her Style: Lourdes Leon

Lourdes Leon has incredible style and she sticks to it. Lourdes serves as creative director for the brand Material Girl and you can definitely tell! Lourdes always has an edgy cool girl look and even mixes it up with bright colors and patterns. I especially love her confidence to wear ripped tights and make a statement, Lourdes totally makes it work. Her version of the little black dress is like no other which makes it perfect. Lourdes Leon's taste for fashion reminds you of her mother, Madonna, especially in her 80's sensation. Could great fashion sense be genetic? Either way Lourdes Leon has amazing style.

Get The Look: Emma Stone

Emma Stone has to be one of my favorite celebrities, she always has a cool girl vibe. I love this outfit she is wearing, it is super chic and perfect for an everyday look. Emma pairs comfortable black flats with grey skinny jeans and a striped top. The shades and motorcycle jacket make the look stand out and become super chic. Emma's bag is also very cool and the color contrast goes well against the black and grey, check out the twisted strap design! Emma's beauty look is kept natural and her hair is pulled back into a messy bun. I'm very into this look and even plan to recreate myself. Try it out chicas!

Get The Look: Leighton Meester


Look #1

Look #2

I usually only post one outfit for a Get The Look post, but I could not help but share both of these photos of Leighton Meester. I have always thought she has a great sense of style both on and off Gossip Girl. The two looks above are fabulous and I think they could work for various occasion. The top photo is good for evening and night, while the bottom outfit is best for the mornings and afternoons. Leighton Meester could easily be out taking a stroll in the bottom outfit or having a shopping day with the girls. The top outfit can be great for a date, dinner, or a girls night out. Leighton's first outfit is very easy to recreate. She is wearing a nude dress, fierce tan booties, a moto jacket, and a warm scarf. She even adds cool shades and curls her hair. Leighton's second look is very chic and casual. She wears chunky high heel sandals, green military skinnies, and a cute midriff baring top. Her accessories included a  cute oversized bag and round shades. I love her hair pulled back into a simple ponytail. Try out these looks ladies!

Outfit Of The Day: 70's Inspired


I was feeling very 70s-ish and decided to pair a loose butterfly winged top with wide legged jeans. My color scheme is kept very neautral with tans, browns, and a gold watch. I even went a little natural by wearing my feather earrings. For shoes I stuck to my favorties, oxfords. They are extremely comfortable and go with just about any outfit. I wore my gold Betsey Johnson watch, a butterfly wing, an owl ring, and a chunky bracelet. My hair is pulled up into a bun, it is desperately awaiting a hair appointment, and I decided to go with no make-up today. By the way my eyewear is just my everyday glasses that have transitioned into some very cool Ray-Ban shades. In all I love my outfit all thanks to some 70's inspiration.

Beauty 101: Smoldering Eyes

Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is the epitome of smoldering eyes. Smoldering eyes are very attractive and usually the first feature a person notices.  Most girls think only loads of liner, millions of coats of mascara, and falsies are the only way to piercing eyes, but shimmer is also key. Shimmer makes beautiful glints when in the light making all attention come on you. Putting the shimmer right underneath your lower lash line and right by your upper lash line. Even put a little dark, neautral shadow right on the outside corner of the eye. To make an even bigger imoact to your eyes apply two coats of lengthening and/or thickening mascara. Your eyes will look amazing chicas.

Get The Look: Chloe Moretz Patterns


Chloe Moretz Look
Chloe Moretz always looks fashionable! She has her own style and works it with major confidence. Chloe also has an excellent radiance and elegance about her. Her beauty look is always very natural and keeps her looking youthful in the best way. Chole is wearing two different patterns that work together, their contrasting colors and directions of the print prevent it from being too much. The skirt is also high waisted and has lovely detail. The shirt is great for fall and winter because it is long sleeved and has great structure. Chloe's shoes are also a beautiful soft pink color with straps hitting around the ankle. Chole's hair is gorgeous! She has a center part with long waves framing her face. Her make-up is kept very simple by applying a little mascara and a little pink gloss.

Fashion Tip #11

Embrace an idea while styling your outfit. Think of what a dancer would wear or even someone from the 80's. Using an idea or concept really helps to create the perfect outfit. Having a concept gives you a muse to pull from and build upon. I love to relaxed moods when styling an outfit which results in loose flowy tops in rich, neautral colors. The times where I love to be edgy I think of rocker girls such as Taylor Momsen and throw on some leather. Ideas can come from anywhere and be anything! Whenever your stuck in a styling challenge, channel a concept and build on it.

Get The Look: Asymmetrical For Prom

Nina Dobrev's dress is phenomal and perfect for the girl who loves to shine. The dress is asymmetrical and one shoulder, two bold details in one dress! An asymmetrical dress can be used to show off nice legs or shoulders and show off a great pair off heels. They even make bras especially for one shoulders dresses that will go perfect and all through the night. Nina's dress also has excellent texture and detail which makes people take a second look. Nina's hair is pulled back into a lovely, sophisticated updo that shows off her gorgeous chandelier earrings. Her make-up is very putting together, she is rocking a nude lip and a soft smokey eye. Any glam girls who love to shine bright should definitely try out Nina Dobrev's look.

Oufit Of The Day: Casual Valentine



Happy Valentine's Day everyone! My gift to you is my first Outfit of the Day post. I could not wait any longer to begin showing my own personal outfits and style. Today was one of my more casual, comfortable and simple days. I paired a loose flowy top with a bow detail that I love and skinny jeans together. I wore my favorite shoes, tan oxfords, with grey leg warmers that I thought were cute and unexpected. Since it's Valentine's Day I could not help but put on some pretty red feather earrings. All together I was thinking of a dancer/ballerina look when styling my outfit. Have a very happy Valentine's Day!
