day and night

I love outfits that can go from day and night...effortlessly.  Maxi dresses are simply one of those clothing.  

Club monaco - open back maxi dress
Christian Louboutin - Simple Pump 85 Patent Calp (nude)

I bought this maxi dress from Club Monaco last summer and I've been wearing it through all the seasons! In the fall, spring, summer when the weather is a little colder, I pair it with a simple cardigan or short sweater to keep me warm - also a perfect day or night look (depending on the occasion) 

For my look, I added a blue top for the day look and for the night look, simply took off the top and of course with my Louboutin's! (in love the nude simple pumps) 

Easy isn't it?

#OOTD - the old and the old

You must utilize all your outfits, which means buying pieces that you can possibly wear years and years down the road.  But let's be honest, that rarely happens. well to me at least.  I usually do a massive cleaning of my closet at least once a year, this is usually to prepare for the upcoming season and that's when I have my "what was I thinking" moments (as you all know).  But this particular top, I kept for years and years....I don't even remember where I bought it from, but it's so easy to pair with anything!

What have you saved from the past?

No, it's not old. It's VINTAGE

When I first bought this watch, it was when I was in the junior or senior year of my high school. Might I add it wasn't that long ago, lol. During that time, GUESS was THE brand - especially the watches and I owned one - my prized possession.

After I graduated from high school, my styled changed (as many of us would agree)  and the watch was sadly thrown under the dust and forgotten until the rise of the arm candy came into trend.  After seeing the Michael Kors watches being paired with a plethora of gaudy bracelets and bangles, my oversized flashy GUESS watch came to mind!

Here is my revitalized look of my GUESS watch:

My question to you is do you have anything in your closet that you can revitalize?

fashion feed JAPAN!

Change is scary....good or bad it makes your heart skip a beat.

that has been doing a lot these days because I recently quit my job to find new and better opportunities! Mostly to get out of the suburbs to move toward fashion central a.k.a TOKYO! I can't disclose what kind of interview I went to but this was the outfit I wore:

stud shirt/ #Zara
puff skirt/ #club monaco
pumps/ #Christian Louboutin
jewelry/ #H&M

My inspiration? 

Well here is where I'm going to give you the current 

fashion feed in Japan:

studs, studs and more studs!

You find them on t-shirts, ripped-jeans, blouses, shorts, shoes, sandals you name it!!! It's awesome! Why? Because I love that rocker-chic look, if I was to describe my fashion style, that would be the closest word.

If YOU had to describe your fashion style in one word, WHAT WOULD IT BE???
