Black, White and a Little Wild

(sunnies, Ray-Bans, jacket from Banana Republic, wild sweater from ASOS, jeans from J. Brand and heels from Coach)

Black, white and a little wild. This one was just a fun photo shoot with my little sis. I ended using these photos from my About Me page. Who doesn't love some black and white photographs. Also, just wanted to say how thankful I am for all the friends and family I am blessed with. Without the support of my family and friends, I would not have the courage to do this and pursue the things I am truly passionate about. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas. Lots of Love and Kisses!!! xx

Red Tweed and Combat Boots

(Red tweed jacket from TJ Maxx, necklace from Target, tank dress from H&M, tights from Belks, clutch from TJ Maxx, and combat boots from Lucky Brand Shoes)

Today’s look was inspired by the holidays and adding a rocker-chic look to the classic tweed jacket. I bought this red tweed jacket recently because I knew it would be something I can dress up or dress down. This outfit is definitely one of my favorites by far. Let the festivities begin! xx

Holiday Stripes

(Jeweled headband from Nordstrom rack, creme cardigan from Banana Republic, black tank top from Zara, striped skirt form Zara and loafers are vintage from mom's closet)

It is my absolute favorite time of the year. The holidays are coming around the corner and it is a great excuse to dress up for the festivities. Here is one outfit idea to wear a Christmas party. xx

I Survived the End of the World

(ASOS beanie, custom leather jacket from Shanghai, Anthropologie maxi-dress, Zara studded loafers)

Now with a clear schedule, I have more time on my hands to document my outfits and focus on my true passion, fashion. Yesterday at midnight was supposed to be the end of the world (according to the Mayans) but of course it did not because we are all still alive and well today. So, yay for surviving!!!

Today's look is pretty chill because I didn't have a busy day. I played model and photographer because my sister was working on her senior ad and she needed some photos to create her backdrop for her ad. Maybe I'll show you some of the photographs I shot for my little sister once she is done with her background. Cheers to all over us surviving the end of the world, but we should all live life as if it were to end tomorrow. Peace and Love.

I'm Still Here...

Firstly, I want to apologize for my absence because it has been quite sometime (over a month) since I've posted and even then it was only a youtube video. I had been caught up on my university school work and the usual social aspect of university. It is now finals week and there is only a few days left of my Junior year in here the motherland. Because next semester, I will be going abroad for the second time around, this time I plan to take on Europe!! Currently, I'm at a very exciting yet stressful phase of my life, but I am trying to absorb every moment of time (bad and good, ups and downs).

I got to thinking about my future today after turning in my Finance exam. I asked myself .. "Is this what you want to do?" ... "Be a Finance major?" ... The answer to that question is NO! Non!! NEVERRR!! I want to do something that I love, something that I am passionate about, something that is natural to me. That is why instead of taking a very much needed nap, I logged on and started typing on here. From now on, I plan on having weekly updates and start having more "phootshoot-y" type posts to spread a little inspiration around (because in reality this is my inspiration and my creative board). Let's go!

Peace and Love! xx

Red Lips

Red lips, oh where to begin. A red lipstick should be in every girl's makeup bag. Red lips can dress up any outfit and just add that "Je ne sais quoi" to a look. I love pairing red lips with neutral eye makeup. When I wear red lips, I would usually just groom/ fill in my eye brows, add a somewhat thick line of eyeliner, a neutral pinky blush on the cheeks and finish it off with whatever choice of lipstick is for the night.

Now that the weather is finally cooling down, I feel like it is the perfect time to pull out those bright reds to the dark vampy/wine red lipsticks. So go on and get those lip sticks ready for those fall/winter festive parties. It is something that everyone can definitely pull off, and I think it doesn't make an appearance as often as it should.

My personal favorite paring when wearing any type of red lips consists of my leather jacket, black jeans, white simple tee, black leather boots and of course my red lips.

 

Pineapple and Mint

Recently, I rediscovered my favorite drink the whole-wide world, Pineapple Mint drink. This would be the drink I would choose to drink for the rest of my life, if I had to choose such a thing. It only takes two simple ingredients: fresh pineapple and fresh mint leaves. All you have to do is put all the yumminess into a blender and blend it up. It is so simple, yet the best thing in the world. Whenever I visit Brazil, I make sure to order this drink at every restaurant. "Um abacaxi com hortelã, por favor"
