カラフル--

Color-Blocking  Music to Match the Look: "Señorita" x Justin Timberlake This is a simple set that I've put together, almost everyone can achieve this look. Every woman and/or girl should own a pair of shorts, wedge heels, a graphic tank, and a blazer. As long as you have these items, you CAN pull off a look similar to this. I chose color-blocking as my theme for this set and mixed elements of casual and "dressy" attire. This look can go from day to night, for example let's say...

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, Live the life you've always imagined... Music to Match the Look: "Supersoaker" x Kings of Leon For this look, I decided to style for both women and men. This particular set is one with a "date night" theme...this is the perfect look for dinner at a nice restaurant or a relaxing evening on the boardwalk. For couples-wear (another one of those words that I'm making-up as I go) I like to have the looks match, without being...

The Gentleman's Quarterly--

"A Gentleman is Simply a Patient Wolf--" Music to Match the Look: "Untitled (How Does it Feel)-Cover" x Daniel de Bourg I've been in this theme of ease and comfort, like the womenswear "Easy Glam" post, this set is one that evokes a sense of easiness. This is a very clean look, when styling for men you don't want to "over do it". A few of my last menswear posts have been styled with a rocker vibe, this post was inspired with more of an urban suaveness (totally not...

La Dolce Vita ---

"Set the Night on Fire, Baby Burn it Up!" Music to Match the Look: "Change" x Churchill Hello Dolls, It's been a long time since I've published a styling set! I've been extremely busy but, I'm back! For this set, I wanted to style something that was easy yet, edgy. I chose to go with a pair of distressed "boyfriend" style jeans because they're comfortable and go with the theme of this look. This look is effortless, which is one of the reasons why I'm really loving it,...

Geek Chic

Fashion for the Stylish Student Music to Match the Look: "Remember Me feat. Jessie J" x Daley This set's inspiration came from starting this (summer) semester in college. After a short pre-summer break, it's back to the chopping block. If anyone is like me, procrastination is your worst enemy...waiting until the last minute to study seems to be a situation I find myself in quite often (like today, smh). To keep my focus, I like to study at my campus library or at...

Summer Sensations! Swimwear Edition (No. Uno)

...because it’s summer and the memories are just waiting to happen I was asked to dedicate a post on styling swimsuits for summer, I thought this would be a great opportunity to extended my summer theme.  The following posts will be a set collection on: "How to Style": Summer Swimwear I'll show you how to wear your swimsuit in style :) Music to Match the Look: "Laredo" x Band of Horses During the summer season, a popular pastime is to go to the beach. I wanted...

Summer Sensations! Swimwear Edition (No. Due)

Sandy Toes & Salty Kisses Music to Match the Look: "Alone Together" x Fall Out Boy This goes out to all my fellow rocker chicks, I wanted to style something edgy so I decided to go with a Wildfox tankini top and high-waisted (graphic print) bottoms. I love this look , its a bit retro..the sunnies give off a hippie vibe, they remind me of John Lennon. I decided to style this as a swimsuit only and just add a few accessories. Because of the rock & roll inspiration...

Summer Sensations! Swimwear Edition (No. Tre)

My Heart Sleeps by the Sea... Music to Match the Look: "Blown Away" x Carrie Underwood I styled this swimsuit with some bohemian inspiration. This a perfect outfit for a lunch date on the beach, the maxi skirt and vest builds an outfit around your bikini and the denim compliments this ombre dip-dyed fabric. I know a lot of people wonder why you should put so much effort into what you wear to the beach but, dressing for a day at the beach is one of the best events...

Summer Sensations! Swimwear Edition (No. Quattro)

Life's a Wave, Catch It! Music to Match the Look: "22" x Taylor Swift For this set, I decided to pair high-waist swimsuit bottoms with a floral bikini top, the fun thing about picking swimwear is the aspect of mixing and matching. I decided to go with a light blue and floral pattern because this color would look great on any skin complexion. This is more a relaxed outfit, instead of pairing this with pants or a skirt, I wanted to style this swimsuit with a denim...

Can't You Hear Summer Knocking? ...styling for the HEAT WAVE This will be a summer collection on "How to Style: Cut-Off Shorts"   Music to Match the Look: "Litost" x Ambassadors For this set, I decided to style with black (distressed&studded) cut-off shorts. I've been wanting to include this graphic "Celine" tee in one of my sets and I figured this would be the perfect look to accent this shirt.   Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell "Damsel" in floral print  I...

Summer Sensations! How to Style: Cut-Off Shorts (Part II)

All Good Things are Wild & FREE! Music to Match the Look: "Dog Days Are Over" x Florence & the Machine Part II is dedicated to the Indie Rocker, I chose to style this set for someone who is attending a festival like Coachella or the Free Press Summer Fest. Distressed (light denim) high-waisted cut-offs were the perfect shorts for this look because the light color adds a vintage "angelic" feel to this set. To accompany this hippieesque look, I chose to pair...

Summer Sensations! How to Style: Cut-Off Shorts (Part III)

I Won't Be a Rockstar... I Will Be a Legend Music to Match the Look: "Dream Catcher" x In Fear and Faith In the Spirit of Rock & Roll, I chose to style this set with a little edge and simplicity. Military inspired looks are one of my favorite "vibes" to create a set with. Instead of going with camo-printed shorts, I chose an army green colored cut-off short to style with this graphic tank, the American flag print used on the tank helps further the military "vibe"...

Couple's Wearapy

...the Couple that Styles Together, Stays Together “I'm oxygen and he's dying to breathe.” Music to Match the Look: "Her Monologue"x Issues His & Hers: Styling, etc. For the guy I chose a harem-styled pant, it's made of a lightweight material and of sportswear design. I love the slim-fit of these pants, actually I'm just biased to any men's pant that is skinny at the ankle... This design is amazing and the comfort level is high. I've included a photo (left) to...
