From Head to Toe

There's something about wearing all black, that I find is fierce and sexy, but in a subtle and simple way. I had been looking for a blouse like this for a long time; it's definitely a must to have. You can wear alone, as I did in this look or you can layer a jacket over it, and it's really versatile, you can wear it casual or in a dressier style. I've always thought that a great red lip is the best accessory for an all black look, it's that punch of color that ties it all together. Hope you like this look.

Let me know what you think!

Siempre he pensando que un look todo negro da un toque de seguridad y sexy, pero de una manera sutil. Llevaba buscando una blusa como esta por muchísimo tiempo, y pienso que es muy crucial en cualquier closet. La blusa es súper simple y versátil, la puedes llevar sola como hice para este look o con un jacket, de manera muy casual o para un look más vestido. Uno labios rojos siempre han sido el mejor accesorio para un look todo negro. Espero que les guste este look.

White on White on Black

I found this amazing Helmut Lang jacket at their sample sale last week in New York, and I loved it right then and there. It has so many styling options, from a really sophisticated all-black look, to a more casual one with ripped jeans or throw it over LBD as the perfect finishing touch.  

Since the print is the focus of this jacket I decided to let it stand out, normally I would've gone for black skinny jeans, but I decided to go for an all white look to keep it super fresh.  Hope you like this look!

Let me know!

Encontré este jacket Helmut Lang en su sample sale en Nueva York y quedé loca con el allí mismo. Es súper versátil, lo puedes usar en un look sofisticado, uno casual con mahones, o usarlo sobre un traje conrto negro como el detalle perfecto. 

Lo especial de este jacket es su estampado, decidí verstir alrededor de el para dejarlo brillar, usualmente me hubiese ido por unos mahones skinny negro, pero escogí un look todo blanco para mantenerlo fresco. ¡Espero que les guste este look!

Simply Modern

If I had to choose one of my favorite go to looks, it would be skinny jeans and a button down loose blouse. I've been deeply obsessed with buttoned down blouses for some time now, I just love how they can polish any look up. I don't particularly love, love skinny jeans, but I do love the combination of the loose top with the skinny jeans. The skinny jeans and buttoned down blouse combination itself is super versatile, you can have one that's super casual, perfect for taking your dog to the park or one that's really sophisticated for an important dinner or meeting. For today's look I wore a layered necklace and went for sleek pumps and a clutch, to keep the look simple and modern. Hope you like this look.

Si tuviera que escoger un look preferido, tendría que ser la combinación de pantalones skinny y una blusa de botones. Este tipo de blusa me ha encantado por mucho tiempo, el toque sofisticado que le pueden dar a cualquier estilo es perfecto. Los pantalones skinny no es que sean mi pantalón preferido, pero la combinación es perfecta y muy versátil. Puedes tener un look así, perfecto para salir y dar un paseo con tu mascota o uno muy sofisticado, perfecto para una reunión y comida importante. Para este look escogí un collar largo, unos pumps y una cartera de mano, para mantenerlo simple y moderno. Espero que les guste este look.

Red & Black

Who would've ever thought that an entire outfit, composed of two colors, would make such a statement? That's the power of bright colors, and the eternally chic black. Fashion isn't supposed to be complicated, it's a way of translating your interests, moods, personality or whatever you want to. I wore this look to dinner over the weekend, and love it's simplistic nature, but statement making power. I complimented my two color look with gold tone jewelry, pumps and classic red lips. Hope you had an amazing weekend and like this look. 

Let me know what you think!

¿Quién pensaría que un look de solo dos colores podría llamar tanto la atención? Ese es el resultado de combinar colores brillantes con el eterno chic negro. La moda no tiene que ser complicada, si no una manera de comunicar tus intereses, humor, personalidad, o cualquier cosa. Utilicé este look para salir a comer durante en fin de semana, y me encantó lo simple que es, pero su habilidad de llamar la atención. Complementé el look con prendas doradas, pumps y labios rojos. Espero que hayan tenido un fin de semana fantástico y les guste este post.

Doubling The Dress

Would you ever consider wearing a swimsuit coverup to a fancy dinner party or for a more casual summer get together? Well, let me tell you that you can use your coverup for other occasions during the year. If you happen to have one in a solid color you'll have more options, can you imagine wearing a fish theme dress to a fancy dinner? I can't either... so lets stick to solids. I chose to style this swanky black coverup two different ways, sophisticated and a more casual way by just switching shoes, accessories and hair. 

What makes this coverup double as a great dress is the draping effect created by tying it behind the neck. For the first look I went for a modern and really sophisticated touch, I kept all the jewelry gold tone and simple. I kept the hair loose and swept to the side, choose an Alexander McQueen clutch for the graphics and modern shape and sky high pumps to really finish the look. Red lips are always a great accessory, so I kept them on both looks.

I couldn't help but to think of a few ways to style the coverup, but ended choosing this casual look in addition to the one above. Tying the hair in a bun automatically gave the dress a more primordial role in the complete look and a more casual feel. I decided to pair the dress with platforms as to tackle any terrain, while still looking amazing. I changed up the jewelry and preferred big bracelets with wooden details to give the look a more daytime laid back effect, but I did keep the earrings simple with these gold hoops. The round bright yellow bag is really fun and different, completing the casual look, but showing that casual doesn't necessarily mean underdressed. I hope you start seeing coverups in a different way, and can incorporate them to different occasions during the year besides the beach! 

Let me know what you think & hope everyone had a great father's day!

Femininely Bold

I definitely have a thing for full skirts, so when I saw a preview of Prabal Gurung's collection for Target and saw this dress I fell for it and hard! It's the perfect combination of feminine and bold, you have a traditional very feminine silhouette combined with a strong apple red and black accents. I decided on adding the sash to accentuate the waist, with full skirts it's easy to look bigger than what you necessarily are, so accenting a small waist or giving the image of it is a must. The dress has such a flirty flair to it, I couldn't help myself on adding "rougher" accents to balance the equation out! Hope you liked the post! Let me know what you think!

All Black

Today I'm sharing with you an all black look, the key to pulling off a one color look for me is adding some texture and some color in key places. For this look I chose a lace blouse and added a sash to create some definition. This lace blouse is extremely flattering because of the vertical direction of the lines. Since this blouse is see through I decided to wear a nude bra but I've also used black, it really all depends on what the occasion is. For the shoes I decided on these Steve Madden snake print pumps, these pumps were perfect for this look because besides their print they have the gold point. To tie in the gold from the pumps I decided on simple gold hoop earrings and the Marc Jacobs bag, which has gold accents.  Let me know what you think about this look!!
