Burnt and still fabulous

May 25, 2017
Summer is the time to flaunt your best assets—the ones you’ve been hiding all winter under layers of clothes. Besides hot weather driving me to wear more revealing clothing, I also love showing off my legs, especially when they’re tan! (My shins are burned in this shoot because I overdid it on the beach in Miami last month.) But these Forever 21 shorts have remained a staple in my summer wardrobe for almost two years! They’re hip huggers with an elastic waist band and draw strings, making them comfy for more casual summer days.

Free People has always been one of my favorite brands, but I especially like this semi-sheer, long-sleeve top. Free People calls it the Bae Bae Layering Top; you can find it on sale here. The neutral and feminine color combined with the plunging neckline has made it one of my favorite shirts to wear lately.

When trying something different goes right

May 17, 2017
Sometimes my outfits can be so matchy-matchy. I can have a hard time putting together an outfit that includes more than two colors. Most of the time, in an effort to always look crisp and cohesive, I pair black with a pop of color. Sometimes it's just black and white, and other times it's more colorful. 

But when I was putting together this outfit, I was looking for a way to break my normal pattern. And since summer is here (yay!), it's the perfect time to experiment with your personal style.

Take this outfit: I've got on a knitted, beige tank, white denim pants and blue denim sandals. It's not matchy at all, but it still works. Putting together these kinds of outfits takes time and thought. It won't just happen!

The Glow Up

May 2, 2017
I came out of my Chicoma and got a deep tan while visiting Miami last week with my good friend Natalie in the City. We both needed a break from RL and decided to escape to a place where we could find inspiration for some summer fashion.

Miami is such an eclectic place. You see just about everything there, especially when it comes to fashion. (Sometimes you see too much.) But I was so excited to finally be somewhere warm that my main mission was to show as much skin as possible. This meant lots of outfits composed of tanks, mini skirts and shorts.
