My Style: Tigers & Camo

Today's Look:  has a safari jungle theme.  To showcase my favorite animal, I chose to wear my newest tiger shirt.  Since regular jean shorts would have been too tame,  I wore camouflage printed cut-off shorts.  The shorts went nicely with the tiger shirt, making the outfit a little more wild.  To create a border between the shirt and shorts, I wore a tan, embellished belt.  Matching the colors of the belt and shorts, I wore tan, gold/silver beaded sandals and a green purse.

Fashion Tip:  This summer printed shorts are the new jean shorts.  

My Style: Pretty in Pink

Today's Look: celebrates flowers, lace, and pink.  Being feminine and girly isn't something to be avoided or shy of; it should be embraced.  So today, I just felt like wearing pink.  To start the outfit off, I chose a floral printed, dip-dyed pink skirt that hits at the waist and comes with a belt.  I wore a button-up, floral patterned, lace sheer blouse that has a light pink strip at the collar and cuffs.  I rolled up the sleeves to make the look more casual and tucked the shirt in.  Finishing off the look, I wore my cream colored purse, pearl earrings, and silver sandals.

Fashion Tip:  Wearing florals with florals is a major summer fashion trend.  

My Style: Polka Dotted Denim

Today's Look:  contrasts a light blue polka-dotted denim blouse with a cream colored pair of lace shorts.  Since the weather was warm and sunny, I chose to wear shorts and a sleeveless shirt to stay cool.  The button up denim top has a collar and tie-knot.  The lace shorts are high waisted and have a zipper in the back.  To match the cream color of the shorts, I wore a cream colored purse, pearl earrings, and gold/silver beaded sandals.

Fashion Tip:  Lace shorts with a denim top make a great casual day outfit, but you can also dress them up with a sequined or sheer top for a nighttime look.

My Style: Taylor Swift Concert

Today's Look:  was specifically designed for the Taylor Swift Red Tour concert that I attended last night.  Let me just begin by saying WOW!  I was fortunate enough to go to her Fearless Tour back in 2009.  It was my first concert and most amazing thing I had ever seen.  Now four years later, Taylor has become even more phenomenal as a performer and artist if that's possible.  So in honor of her newest album's title as well as her tour's title, Red, I wore the shirt that I bought months ago at Target when I bought her CD.  It's an adult's small, which means it isn't form fitting at all, so I rolled up the sleeves to give it a more feminine look.  I wore black high-waisted shorts (modeled after Taylor's most recent fashion transformation) and tucked the shirt in.  To dress the casual outfit up a tad, I wore a black, metal-studded waist belt and nice sandals rather than flip flops.

Outfit Details:  Shirt by Taylor Swift at Target and store.taylorswift.com, Shorts by Kimchi Blue at Urban Outfitters (Scottsdale, Arizona), Sandals by Montego Bay Club at Payless (Prescott, Arizona), Belt at Mahina (Honolulu, Hawaii).

Fashion Tip:  When getting ready to go to a concert, a lot of girls dress up which I personally think is kind of silly.  Are they trying to compete with the performer?  I don't get it. Plus, tight dresses and heels aren't comfortable to dance in or wear for long periods of time, so it's not practical.  I recommend wearing a shirt with the artist you're going to see on it (if you don't have a shirt with them on it how can you call yourself a fan?), shorts or pants depending on how hot or cold it is outside, and flat shoes because you will be standing, jumping around, and wearing the shoes all night.  You can still look adorable and fangirl it up at the same time.

My Style: A Modern Twist

Today's Look:  is a modern twist on the old classic, a pair of blue jeans and a white shirt.  The combination of a white top with a pair of blue jeans will forever be in style, but the individual pieces themselves have changed throughout the decades.  The blue jeans have become lower-cut and bedazzled while the shirts are continuously evolving.  Starting out, I picked a faded pair of dark blue skinny jeans and an off-white crochet, embellished top. To match the color and metal on the top, I wore tarnished gold earrings, an off-white bracelet, and two rings.  Finishing off the look the look, I wore brown leather boots with my fringe suede purse. 

Outfit Details:  Shirt by Staring at Stars at Urban Outfitters, Jeans by Levi's at Macy's,  Bracelet and Earrings at Target, Boots by OTBT, Purse by Steve Madden at Nordstrom.

Fashion Tip:   When in doubt or in a rush, a white blouse with a pair of blue jeans is always a solid choice.  

My Style: Neon Pastel Romper

Today's Look:  emphasizes the femininity of pink, flowers, and a short romper.   The romper is covered in flowers of pink, purple, red, along with splotches of green as if they were leaves.  The floral print gives an almost splatter paint/ impressionistic portrait. The design is quite breathtaking.  Since the romper is spaghetti strapped, I wore my light denim vest to add coverage as well as layering.  To match the peachy-pink color in the romper, I wore a beaded necklace.  Finishing off the look, I wore sparkly diamond earrings and silver sandals.

Fashion Tip:  Rompers can often be sexy since they are short and sleeveless, so adding a denim vest or cardigan, not only adds layering to the outfit but also makes the romper sweeter.
