Nail Art

Hailee Steinfeld 

As I was immersing myself in Marie Claire's September issue, while patiently waiting for a doctors appointment I stumbled upon a fragment mentioning Zooey Deschanel's fun nails, which got me thinking about how nails have become such a spotlight, even having a "mani cam" when E covers the red carpets. It has always baffled me how these nail artists can get so many details into such a small space, and as crazy as some may seem they always look perfectly done. Personally, I like more simple art choices, dark colors and classic red, but either way I love this craze and that everyone from artists, to athletes, to basically anyone is onboard. Right now I'm really loving the metallic colors, especially gold. The extent of this nail craze is so evident that you don't even have to go to a nail salon, even major beauty brands like Essie are selling really cool at-home kits and new color options. Are you feeling the nail craze, or do you prefer solid colors? Hope you like this post!

Laid-Back Style

If I had to summarize my favorite style it would definitely be an effortless combination of solids, prints and textures, with a laid-back touch. Skirts have been pretty much of a necessity during this very warm summer. I think that prints and colors help boost your mood when you think you just can't handle it anymore and you'd much prefer to go out in your undies than lay any layer of clothing on you! Today I was going for a really relaxed look that I knew I could spend the entire day in without wanting to change into something more comfortable later. I chose the loose top because it's super comfortable, but was sure to add the belt which is an extremely easy way to add details to your look, and I know you're probably wondering how could I be in these shoes the entire day, but they're reasonably comfortable because the heel is pretty chunky which makes it super easy to walk in. Hope you like this look!

Styling Statement Shoes

A couple of days ago I posted about Sophia Webster's shoes and how I'm obsessed with them, because of their colors, prints and wearable creativity. I got a question about styling shoes like these; with the ones I chose in particular, I can see them working wonders with a casual look, ideal for a relaxed summer outing. When you have statement shoes like these, you can either let them be the star of your outfit or bring in other prints that compliment them. I'm a huge enthusiast of mixing prints, so for this look I added some subtle touches of prints through the blazer and t-shirt. I really didn't want to take away form these sandals, so I kept to one tone of color, blue. By doing this, I was able to add other prints without taking the focus off from the sandals. This summer I'm really liking boyfriend jeans, so I couldn't help but to add one of my many summer must haves to complete this casual yet chic look. You could totally pair it with solids so they stand out more or you can go even more daring and add bolder prints to your look.  Hope you like it!
