Hey Guys, since summer is coming here are some examples on how to switch up your everyday dress, skirt and jeans. Look 1 is shown with the classic trendy white ripped skinny jeans which I feel can be dressed up and worn casual. White jeans are perfect for summer they give a clean cut look and can be dressed up or down. In my opinion white jeans they are a perfect investment for summer. In these examples I have paired the jeans with a pointy heel and a peplum top which is perfect for a night look and the second look with the jean top is perfect for a day semi- casual look which can be worn to a restaurant with friends. The last look which is worn with nike's is perfect for a casual day out. Look 2 is a more dressier look with the black skirt. Here I show how the skirt can be worn from a formal night look to a semi formal day look. First outfit of look 2 is perfect for a night out, second outfit is perfect for a date during the day and the last look is a semi-casual crisp white summer look which can be worn on a casual  day out but still looking chic. Look 3 is shown with the casual grey cotton/spandex dress. This dress is a perfect summer piece it can be dressed up or down and is good for any  body shape. The first outfit of Look 3 is shown with a scrappy sandal, gold accents and a amazing trendy fringe purse. The second look is for a more fancy date which is shown with a pink accent the Channel lego purse and the classic strappy black sandals. The third look of Look 3 is shown with the classic white leather runners and the blue accented bag with a classic fedora, I love this look for a casual comfy day out.

OOTD BLK/BLUE




Top: BCBG, Pants: Sandro Paris, Necklace: BCBG, Bracelets: Aldo, Glasses:BCBG

Todays OOTD was inspired by my favourite color to wear blue. My body shape is a hourglass x shape this is the reason why  I love wearing peplum tops. Peplum tops shape my body perfectly because they focally feature my waist line and hide the thigh area which is very flattering for my body. I love adding statement necklaces and this BCBG piece I have had forever and never get sick of it. Statement necklaces are always good for a simple outfit they add that extra umpf ;).

OOTD - COLOR YOUR WORLD







Today's OOTD was inspired by my BCBG abstract vest. I love this vest it has amazing abstract detailing and leather trim. I paired it with a zara purse which ads a pop of color. I am also wearing Nine West heels, Pants by J.Crew, Top by BCBG and hat is unknown. I love this outfit for just a casual day around the city but still being dressy enough if any plans come up. I love how to a simple black outfit a vest with color ads so much life.  :) Marina

 Miley Cyrus 


Wearing: Alexander Wang 

Solange Knowles

Wearing: Giles Mini Dress 

Sara Jessica Parker 

Wearing: H&M dress that she designed, Headpiece:Philip Treacy 

Fashion biggest night at the Metropolitan Museum of art the Met Gala 2015 had a lot of hits and misses when it comes to fashion. This year's theme was China, the celebreties came out with many designers and many styles of dresses but gold was a most featured color. Some of my favourites are Blake Lively who looked fabulous and classic in her Gucci dress with a old hollywood glamour look. Dita Von Teese looked amazing in the beautiful Zac Posen body fitting dress with a amazing mermaid flare, with a touch of red on the edges which added glamour. I loved Kim Kardashians Roberto Cavalli gown, she looked fabulous and beautiful but it did remind me a little of Beyonce's dress. My flops were Miley Cyrus who wore the Alexander Wang dress which was not flattering at all and the cutouts were very random and unfitting for her figure. Another one of my flops was Solange Knowles  who wore the Giles dress, it was a creative piece but in my opinion it did not suit the theme nor did it fit her body shape. My last fail was Sara Jessica Parker who wore H&M dress that she designed which I thought did not look put together and was wrong in all levels.
