Contrasting patterns are like eye-candy when it comes to outfits. It adds and eclectic and curious element to a look, and it leaves people staring (in a good way). There are some rules to follow when putting the ensemble together.

I’ve been drawn to vintage/worn-in tie-dye tees lately. The best ones in Goodwill or in vintage shops are always the kid sizes. They have profound graphics and color. When I found this one, I was shopping for a styling job. I couldn’t say no.

I regret not getting this post up on Mother’s Day, but better late than never! This outfit is a real vision of the past in the present. To honor my mom, I used her clothes to make an outfit!

Today I am wearing one of my favorite designers. Christopher Kane is known for black, browns, and grays, maybe a dash of blue. This FW17 season he showcased a use of sparkling sequins and flowers. He still stuck to his love of dark shades. The color in the collection really popped.

What comes to mind when you hear “Mediterranean footwear”? I think of vibrant color, pom-poms, sandals, and beach inspired. Hunting for new brands that have an innovative, signature product that they have pride in is one of my hobbies. Instagram brought me to Abanibi, a shoe brand that is defining the production of footwear.

With this off the shoulder trend now taking a back seat, I decided to give it one more go. When trends are at their time’s end, it is my favorite time to try and make them new. I had usually worn this top in particular with jeans or cropped flair pants.

Happy Saturday! I’ve been feeling adventurous and a bit cooped up because of midterms. A night out is definitely needed to get my mind off of school for just a second. Edgier fashion for clubbing has been in the scene from celebrities, Instagram models, and in major cities for quite some time. Clubbing involves dancing, of course, so you need mobility.
I am loving the sunshine, but I am not quite ready to let go of my jeans and knitwear. To balance the light and mood of a beautiful spring day, I made this cozy but vibrant look.
