All about the hair, baby!

NICE HAIR!

I, immediately, squealed for excitement when I saw this graphic tee by Alex & Chloe. If there is anything I love more than dark chocolate and guacamole, it's HAIR! With our temperate in the high 80's yesterday, it was the perfect weather to bring out my favorite crop top! I paired it with a high back slit skirt, in which the body con shape was a perfect pair with my loose fitted top! 

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

JANUARY WISH LIST

Graphic tees/sweatshirts are still a huge trend and most are coming with “catchy” phrases now. I love adding white accents to any outfit, especially after the Holidays. You can never go wrong with a pop colored wool coat to brighten up a gloomy day. Last but not least, accessorize your outfit with classic pumps and crystal drop earrings. I consistently wear a shade of red lipstick so I chose to lust over a hot pink color. 

What are some of your “must haves” for the month of January? 

1. SILVER ID BRACELET - NICHOLAS

2. SWEATSHIRT - ZOE KARSSEN

3. LIPSTICK - MAC CANDY YUM YUM 

4. MOTO JEANS - HUDSON JEANS

5. GAZELLA DROP EARRINGS - ANTHROPOLOGIE

6. ZARA WOOL COAT - ZARA

7. THORN PUMP - SAINT LAURENT

8. LEATHER HANDBAG -  PROENZA SCHOULER

 

Pop of Burgundy

I hope everyone is having a fabulous week! 

If you didn't know already, red is my favorite color. I love any shade of red and always end up incorporating a red accent in almost every outfit. The fit and and peplum flare is a very flattering silhouette and I happen to think it's perfect for almost every body shape.

I paired my wine colored skirt with a sweater and leather to accommodate for our crazy L.A weather preparing me for a warm afternoon lunch and a cold winter night dinner.

Red Leather

I mentioned in my previous post that I am in love with my BCBG Paris d'Orsay pumps so much that I chose to style them a different way. My second look is more casual and edgy with coated jeans, a white tee, and a leather jacket. The pumps definitely add a bit of femininity to it and can take the outfit from daytime to nighttime. 

The giveaway is running until tomorrow, Thursday! The winners will be selected and announced on Friday.

5 lucky winners will win a pair of shoes ($50 value) and a copy of the New York Times best-seller, Do you speak shoe lover?

WHITE JEANS AND A TOUCH OF MUSTARD

It finally feels like winter in L.A! Or at least for us, "SoCal" people, 40 degrees (Fahrenheit)  is really cold! I can't imagine anywhere else where it's snowing and almost at freezing point!

White jeans are always a perfect touch to brighten up a gloomy day! I paired it with one of my favorite coats and added a burst of mustard for a pop of color.

Happy December Everyone!

The second I came across this graphic tee from Urban Philosophy, I knew I had to have it. I love the simplicity of the white tee with a bold statement! I paired it with a quilted A-line floral skirt and a wool/leather bomber jacket from Charlotte Russe. Aside from leather and plaids, I am loving different textures mixed in one garment. The moto jacket was a perfect addition for a cold day in LA because of the wool blend fabric with long faux leather sleeves. We shot this outfit in a small chic town in my neighborhood in L.A and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon browsing through little boutiques.

I am so excited to announce that ‘tis the season for giveaways and fun collaborations.

YOU also have the chance to win this amazing graphic tee from Urban Philosophy with the $40 e-gift card we will be giving away at the end of the week. Please follow the instructions below and the winner will be announced on Monday, December 9^th.
