Checkers

If there ever was a power look, this would be a pretty good representation of it. Pencils skirts are a great way to show you mean business while still looking feminine. I looked up the history of the pencil skirt and was surprised to learn that Wilbur and Orville Wright had a really impressive role in it, and then Christian Dior gave it the spin of how we know it today. Houndstooth is one of my favorite prints for its retro feel. With checkers making such a big splash with Louis Vuitton's collection, I couldn't be more excited in pairing these two statement prints. Everything else I maintained relatively simple except for the bag, the graphic Alexander McQueen clutch gave the look a more modern style. Hope you like it!

Androgynous Chic

I love masculine looks that still have a really feminine touch to them. I know it may sound a bit contradictory, but what I mean is a masculine inspired silhouette combined with prints, colors or sinched waists for a very sophisticated look. Using modernized traditional pieces like these pants or printed blouse is an easy way to achieve this. Sometimes it's difficult dressing for work without it being dull or too traditional, and with our hectic lifestyles, time is no longer a commodity and we need to get out the door as quickly as possible. Having bright colors, prints, modern takes to traditional pieces is key to dressing super chic and sophisticated for a day at the office or important meetings.

Sketches & Stripes

You already know about my love for everything black & white and stripes, doesn't matter in what direction or color. My obsession with black & white isn't only in clothing... I love sketches, the simplicity and rawness of them, so when I saw this T-shirt in Zara, I needed it! The knack of combining patters is a must have for everyone, it's super chic and has a parisian flair to it, you can make any look amazing. I couldn't help combining this skirt with the T-shirt, they complement each other perfectly with the simplicity of the shirt and the fun from the stripes; I added the clutch to add some more graphic interest to the look. Hope you liked the post! Let me know what you think!

A Parisian Flair

 I think that every fashionista or aspiring fashionista should have a perfect white t-shirt in their closet, be it really fitted or loose (whatever you prefer) to dress up or down. When I find a pair of jeans or white t-shirt (yes, that specific) that I like I buy two. I'm ridiculously picky over these t-shirts and jeans, and I know that I'll save hours if not days of helplessly searching without success if I just buy a second one when I find them. I know that jeans and a t-shirt can be a pretty common look, but when you spruce it up it can work wonders. By choosing skinny black jeans and adding the cut out booties you automatically give it more style, but the clue to finish off this look with a Parisian feel was the short sleeved jacket. This jacket adds texture and interest to the look because of its industrial type zipper and cracked detail fabric, its details like this that take your look to another level! Let me know what you think about the look and how you would style your t-shirt!

On a Neutral Tone

 Wearing white can really be difficult, I mean trying to keep it perfectly clean throughout the day. I love wearing my white jeans but have found that they spend more time in my closet than on me... so when I saw them in my closet I was up for the task. I wanted to keep the look on a neutral tone, so decided on this creme blouse with a detailed neck, the wow factor of this blouse is with out a doubt the neck. I'm crazy about my new Alexander McQueen clutch and I'm constantly trying to wear it with anything, it has the perfect combination of feminine and modern. Let me know what you think about the look!
