The Perfect Match

I love the contrast between this light, flowy skirt and this super cozy sweater. It's amazing that both pieces are so different, the skirt is super busy with color and print while the top is really simple and understated, but they are perfect for each other. The checkered effect, which is repeated in both of them is what really ties both pieces together. Hope you like this look!

Let me know what you think!

Me encanta el contraste entre la falda con movimiento con este sweater. Ambas piezas son muy distintas, la falda, con un estampado bien llamativo y colorido, mientras el sweater es muy simple. El efecto de cuadros en ambas piezas ata ambas, haciendo de unas muy diferentes un look ideal. Espero que les guste este look.

Me dejan saber que les parece.

Mixing It With Grey

Lately I've been really into experimenting with grey, I used to think that it was a pretty boring color, but  it really has a huge potential. You can match grey with yellow, purple and bright green for a really refreshing and fun look, go more traditional with white or try grey on grey like I did. This look really came out great because of the mixing between the shades of grey and the added visual interest from the print on the blouse. The necklace was the key finishing ingredient, it added a huge tribal flair that tied in perfectly with the blouse. Grey no longer is a boring color in my book and it's ability to be mixed with a variety of colors makes it perfect for every season.  Hope you liked this look!

Let me know!

Closet Wishlist- Jackets

A quintessential item for Spring is the jacket! It's the perfect way to inject some color & print to your wardrobe without having to buy an entirely new wardrobe for Spring. You can go traditional with a preppy style blazer or modern & hip with a cool bomber jacket or anything in between. I'm particularly taken a back with the cool twist they've given the bomber jacket, I found this Rebecca Minkoff one that I'm crazy about. I just love the modern flair it has with the snakeskin embossed leather  and slight feminine touch with the pink-purpleish, but still true to its sporty heritage. This one is kind of pricey, so I found another version that gives you the same effect, but for a bargain!

Adding a jacket to a simple look, like shorts and a T-shirt gives it a complete twist, making it perfect to take from walking your dog to eating lunch and looking super stylish. There are clever pieces that can take your look from ordinary to extraordinary, as cliché as it may sound. Also, jackets are the perfect item to transition from Spring to Summer. Hope you enjoy the post!

Color Combination

Striped sweaters are any closet's must have, they look timeless and depending how you style them they can look preppy, nautical or casual day chic. Usually when I choose a loose top, I go with tight or form fitting bottom and vice versa; for this look I decided on this form fitting striped sweater and loose orange bottom's. I love how the color combination came out, really refreshing and the look is perfect for going to lunch or for a day at work. The turquoise string necklace was a nice change to my gold tone jewelry, obsession I've been having lately.  I think that with the busy life we all lead, having versatile options in our closet are super important. Let me know what you think about the look!

Red & Floral

 Taking one of my favorite spring trends, floral. There's something about floral patterns that seem really feminine and fresh, be it a literal floral pattern or a more graphic pattern. I've owned this skirt for some time now and every time I wear it I love it even more. This skirt is definitely a statement skirt; it's pattern, deep red color and fullness make it a complete statement. I decided to pair it with a white blouse that has simple details, so as to not take away from the skirt but still add interest and this big leather belt. This belt is a great closet must have, even though it's big and has a knot in the middle it adds style to the look but doesn't overwhelm it. I personally think that this look is perfect for an occasion where you want to look approachable but still show your personality. Let me know what you think about the look!
