Trend Alert: Daring Pants

I am loving the daring pants! Cropped, harem, jumpsuits and now the drop-crotch pant! Everyone from Proenza Schouler to Chloe to Balmain showed this trend on the runway. The trend has now hit the High Street with great options. It’s best to choose a slightly cropped pair as they will be more flattering and team with a tight fitting top or crop top if you’re feeling brave. This exaggerates the volume and balances the shape slightly. So now, shove those skinny jeans to the back of the closet and get a load of the extra odd shape trousers making a play for your attention!

New Me!

Suprise! Suprise! Cut my hair two days ago and it is a completely different look than what you are used to seeing me with. Replacing the long hair, I have opted for a very blunt cut bob that falling just below my chin. I really love it!

Orange

Today I wore a Topshop jeans which I paired with a stripes top and a vintage blazer. This simply stunning vintage blazer was a final key piece added a pop of color to my more somber day out, thus enlivening the entire look. This blazer also makes my basics look better on a simple top and jeans.

Hot Weather

It was morning and already the sun was hot. It was burning. And the air was really dry. No moisture at all. I was out for a while today and I think I became darker already. The weather had drastically changed and it is the hottest month of the year!

So for the normal day out today, I belted a voluminous patterned vintage blouse that I found while browsing at my new favorite online store last few weeks. I am so in love with-I know I say this about a lot of things, but I really think this might be my favorite blouse I own. Also love the idea of augmenting a loose blouse by adding this cute belt I bought from Sevendays a long time ago. The blouse doesn't look half as good without this belt, in my opinion. To give my outfit a little more interest, I layered my top over a Topshop bandage skirt and sheer thigh high stockings. Very eighties!

The Sharp Suit

I chose to wear a long and lean blazer while out today and threw it over a shirt that I buttoned to the very top and tucking it into a bandage skirt. This blazer is perfect piece of outerwear and the interesting part—my dad found this blazer that he wore on his wedding day! (cool huh?).

Actually, I always think women look fantastic in men’s tailoring!

Oversized Dots

I LOVE how this oversized dots cape makes me feel—It gave an easy-breezy sort of feel and was easy to throw on and walk out the door. I mixed the top with my glamorous sequined leggings and floppy hat then finished the outfit with a pair of Nine West oxford heels. I think black-and-white spots are perfect for a downtown look.

Ombre Look

Whenever I think of tie-dyed garments the first thing that comes to mind is 'summer camp'—never went to summer camp actually (I was far too cool for that. *winks*). After a recent wave of tie-dye looks began popping up on the runways and the streets, I couldn’t help but fall for the hippie dippy look that first surfaced in the late ‘60s. This look is great to make a fun bold statement in the daytime by teaming a funky dip tye top with denim shorts.

Body Conscious

Thank you so much to the lovely Incocobox for sending me these Gold Glitter Caged Heels-they're killer. Worn with Topshop colorblock tunic. I think this is the time to discover the curve-creating wonders of body-con. The tops was look great with motorcycle jacket for a bit of sexy edge.
