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 you have a 4 o'clock class; you throw on a pair of cutoff shorts, a graphic tank (like in the photo above), and a pair of vans....during your class you get a text from a friend saying "Let's meet up for drinks later, 7pm @ Blue Martini". You won't have enough time to get ready because your class ends at 6:00 pm and you have to leave your house, or dorm, by 6:30pm...all you have to do is substitute those vans for a pair of wedge heels, add a blazer, and swap that book-bag for an over-sized handbag and you're ready for the nightlife! 

I hope you've enjoyed this post, remember fashion is about taking inspiration and molding it to fit your personal style...

I'll Let You Be in My Dreams if I Can Be in Yours---

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 obvious. Specifically in this set, I've given these outfits cohesion by choosing to style with similar color palettes and the Gucci brand.
Styling
Women(s)
This look is very relaxed, since it's the Fall season, I am slightly obsessed with over-sized sweaters. For this set I chose a Rag & Bone wide-neck sweater in the color grey, this is a very pricey brand but, it's one of my favorites. Black skinny jeans from 7 For All Mankind are paired with this top along with red suede pumps from Zara to accent the statement piece; this beige Gucci original "GG" fabric handbag.
Men(s)
There's something very alluring and attractive about a man who is stylish in a very simplistic/ laid-back kind of way. I styled this look and many of my looks for menswear this way...
Top: Basic cotton deep v-neck
Pants: J Brand white skinny jeans 
Shoes: Black and White Converse "Chuck Taylor All-Star"
Watch: Gucci "G-Timeless" Sport Watch
