OOTD: Weekend Vibes

Happy Friday!  😘  Hope you are ready for the long holiday weekend.  For me it feels like it’s been long overdue.  Not sure what the weather has been like where you live, but here in LA it’s been hot hot hot. Here is my Friday #OOTD perfect for beating the heat and getting ready for those weekend vibes. Even though the top has long sleeves, the material is sheer and the white helps to beat the sun’s rays; almost making you feel cooler than without the sleeves. To step things up a notch, I added a statement necklace to add some color and a bit of bling to the outfit.  I feel like mixing dressy and casual pieces gives off an effortless look, even though you probably spent hours picking everything out.  Hope this outfit gives you some fun inspiration and gets you pumped for the weekend.  So go blast “Lean On” by Major Lazer and start going through your closet!  You have three outfits to plan.  😉

Outfit Inspiration: Tribal Print Maxi Dress

When I first got this dress, I loved the style, but not so much the print.  I’ve always been a little bit hesitant to wear tribal print.  Especially one that’s so colorful.  Lately, I’ve been trying to be more adventurous with my dress and pick out things I wouldn’t normally go for.  Hopefully this styling of a tribal print maxi dress inspires you to be a little more daring too.

Since the tribal print is so busy, it’s always a good idea to keep your accessories simple.  For accessorizing this outfit, I focused on just a few key pieces that had the same geometric shapes as the print.  I opted for gold accessories as yellow was a focal point in the dress.  Hope you enjoy! 😊

Crop Top HAUL: August 2015

I recently went on a crop top buying spree and purchased four different tops to pair with my high-waisted skirts and shorts. As someone with a short torso, I always feel funny about wearing crop tops because it visually raises your waistline, but when paired with complimentary bottoms and a snazzy attitude, anything goes. 😉

Outfit Inspiration: Casual Chic Pink and White

Here is a casual chic pink and white outfit I put together for a summer night out to a rooftop bar in New York. Since the top had beading around the neckline, I kept the accessories simple by just going with bracelets. Hope you enjoy! 😊
