Sunset Flowers



Top: H&M | Dress worn as Skirt: H&M - Similar: Boohoo | Shoes: Ardene | Earrings, Necklace, and Vintage Clutch: Light In The Box


Fact: I rarely ever put on earrings. However, when I saw these peacock feather earrings I instantly wanted them! I love the color and pattern on them, and best of all, they're so lightweight which makes them comfortable. This gorgeous necklace I wore here, is currently out of stock, but it will be restocked soon.
I also found this gorgeous vintage clutch on Light In The Box and I fell in love with it. The delicate beading, the unique shape, and the fact that it is spacious was what caught my eye. It also come with two chains: a long one (which I'm wearing) and a shorter one. It's available in about 3 other colors, so i think I might add one more to my clutch collection. ;)

Funny Stuff: Would you believe it if I told you I'm wearing 2 dresses and 1 blouse in this outfit? Remember in the last post we talked about recycling and a lot of you agreed that there's nothing wrong with it. Well, I did some more recycling in this outfit. Instead of buying new pieces often, try mixing and matching dresses as tops or skirts with other items in your closet; this will save you loads of money and get you thinking creatively.

What do you think about wearing dresses as tops/skirts? Do you do this often? I know I do! If you'd like to see more posts like this on making your closet versatile, let me know in the comments.

Is 'Recycling' A Fashion Faux Pas?

Top: Suzy Shier | Pants: H&M | Necklace: LightInTheBox | Wristwatch: Avon | Shoes: JustFab
Total: $63.95

I have a lot of things to tell you in this post and I don't even know where to begin! I'll begin at the reason for this post's title. I recently read an E! News article where they criticized a celebrity (Jennifer Aniston) for wearing the same dress twice (recycling). Since when has not throwing your clothes away after one wear become a fashion faux pas? Do you agree?  For this outfit, I stayed around the same color pallete as the previous one, but I made it more dressy by adding this pair of sandals, a statement necklace and these gorgeous textured pants + red lips.

I always dress up according to my mood... no matter what. If I don't, I will not feel comfortable in what I'm wearing. Do you do that too? I had planned out a different outfit initially, but I ended up changing into this just because I felt like wearing pants and nothing was going to change that. 

Finally, I need some help! I NEED to find a brand that makes pants/jeans that fit perfectly (especially for pear-body shapes). If you have any suggestions, please them in the comment section!

The Color Purple



Shop This Look:
Dress: Light In The Box // Tights & Jewellery: Ardene // Boots: Michael Antonio via BTR // Sunglasses case & Clutch : Dollar Tree

Total Outfit Cost: Approx $42

So I took my tripod out on a spin on Saturday again. I must say I'm quite surprised that the pictures turned out like this. Anyway, I decided to try colorful tights for the first time, but in order not to look too crazy, I paired it with these boots with a similar color. What do you think?

I really love these colors together, they look so rich and kinda ombre-ish? (is that even a word?). I've had this dress for almost a year now and this was actually my second time styling it. The material is so soft and thick, so it kept me warm; I didn't have to put on a jacket! How did you spend your Easter weekend?

IAB is still running. Please send in your answers if you'd like to participate! Check here for more info.

Shoes - I Can't Resist

I found myself scrolling through LightInTheBox's shoe section during the week, and I was so excited. I normally don't like black shoes (I own just one pair of black shoes- which I have never worn), but after going through their shoes, almost all my picks turned out to be black!

I don't even think I did a really good job cutting down for this post. LOL. From this list, my absolute fave pair is the black and gold zipper bootie.

What do you guys think? Which is your fave? I think the one with the flower would be so fun for Spring/Summer! So cute!

A Different Kind Of Valentine














 



Top: H&M Skirt: Dynamite Tights: Ardene Shoes: LightInTheBox

Hey guys, I'm back! That didn't take too long right? I decided to resume early because I feel much better!

Valentine's day is around the corner, and I know some people are already going crazy looking for that 'special outfit'. As for the rest of us, we're just here chilling; we'll help you with your outfit ideas and that's it for us. *Story of my Life*

Anyhoo, Valentine's day outfits normally gear towards sweet, girly, cute outfits, but I decided to come up with something more edgy. This look will be more appropriate for like a classy romantic dinner, so please don't wear this to the movies! Jk. 

I really need a good and affordable DSLR camera. Can please you recommend any?

The IAB launch is drawing nearer. I received a couple of emails, but I'm still waiting for yours! Don't just sit back and watch the show, be a part of the show! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
