My Style: Hello Kitty

Today's Look:  is all about Hello Kitty!  I have been a Hello Kitty fan for a while now, so I have a nice collection building of memorabilia, such as a stuffed animal, necklace, shirt, watch, pair of PJ's, etc.  Since I dressed somewhat dark yesterday, I felt like being bright and girly today.  Hello Kitty was perfect.  To start the outfit off, I chose my white top with pink and blue detailing, along with my turquoise jean shorts to match.  If you're going to fangirl it up, I believe in going all out, so I wore my Hello Kitty necklace as well as my Hello Kitty watch.  Finishing off the look, I wore a pink heart ring, white sandals, and a bright pink Betsey purse.

Fashion Tip:  To make an outfit unique or have a special touch, be creative by matching your manicure with your outfit.  

My Style: Tie Dye & Skulls

Today's Look:  is all about the tie-dyed copper, collared blouse that is covered with skulls.  The shirt, one of my favorites, has two pockets along with metal flourishes at the edge of the collar.  To match the skulls theme and black detailing throughout the shirt, I wore jeweled black sandals that helped dress up the casual look.  Contrasting with the edgy top and sandals, I chose to wear white lace shorts to add some sweetness.  Finishing off the look, I wore gold diamond bow earrings, two rings, and my favorite Betsey purse.

Fashion Tip:  Think of fashion as an art, instead of a daily task.  Clothing can be used as self expression.

My Style: Wildfox Couture

Today's Look:  features one of the hottest brands that originated from Los Angeles known for their swimwear, clothes, and sunglasses.  Wildfox Couture was established in 2007 by two childhood friends  Emily Faulstich and Kimberley Gordon.  The swimsuit I chose was featured on Seventeen Magazine's May 2013 cover, modeled by AnnaSophia Robb.  To match the light pink within the pattern on the swimsuit, I wore a ruffled, pastel colored cardigan.  Highlighting the green colors on the suit, I wore sea-foam green earrings and olive green sunglasses.  Pulling all the colors together, I wore a jeweled necklace that contains greens, blues, pinks, purples, yellows, and white.   To make the swimsuit part of an outfit rather than just a suit, I wore my black high-waisted shorts and black studded wedges.

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.

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.

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.
