SPRING 2019 FASHION TRENDS

2019 is set to be a very bold year in terms of fashion. Animal prints are not going anywhere soon and with the introduction of some other loud textiles and trends, even the subtle season of spring won't be for the faint of heart. Of course, you don't have to follow the trends of the times each season, but if you choose to do so this spring, you better buckle up. Literally. THE INDUSTRIAL BELT That being said, let's start with the industrial buckle belts. Anything streetwear queen Bella ... read more

TREND: SNAKESKIN BOOTS

Snakeskin has been one of the hottest trends this A/W season that doesn't seem to be going anywhere for S/S. I am snatching up snakeskin pieces left and right, from shoes to bags, tops and jackets. Out of all the animal prints popping up on runways and in retailers (and believe me, there are a lot!) snakeskin is arguably one of the sultriest and sexiest of animal prints. As much as I am loving the sex appeal of snakeskin, I also love wearing it in a practical and comfortable form such as ... read more

WHAT IS WEEKLY WEAR AND WHERE?

After 7+ long years, I'm back on Youtube with a series of look books that I call Weekly Wear and Where. The series runs similarly to an "Outfits of the Week" video, except in WW&W would feature where I would recommend wearing the outfits to, where I wore them to and perhaps some vlog type footage here and there.   Since high school and especially more in my university days, I would constantly get girls who would tell me how much they love my personal style and wish they could put in ... read more

FAVE FIVE MET GALA 2018

The Met Gala is my favorite night in fashion, probably because I am one of those people that totally loves themes. And, I get really agitated when someone doesn't follow a theme. I'm not even going to beat around the bush, I need Selena Gomez banned from the Met Gala. How many passes will we give the girl?! She has been on my worst dressed list for too many consecutive years.   Anyway, this post is not about SelGo, but rather about who donned the most heavenly outfits on, arguably, ... read more

OOTD: RACHEL ROY RED FUR

I feel like the chicest raccoon in all the PNW.      As I was writing this post the most exciting thing happened! Rachel Roy herself liked the image of this OOTD that was uploaded to instagram! Eeeeep.    A bougie fur coat is a staple in my winter wardrobe. I love a fur coat just as much as I love a black turtleneck and for me, the two paired together is a match made in heaven. However, I do think it is important to say that I would NEVER support the fur industry ... read more

OOTD: Orange and Gold

Where is the pepper emoji when you need one?! Working on one of my resolutions of 2018, here is a fashion OOTD post from an outfit I wore the other night out shopping. Have to be honest, I felt like such a baddie in this - which is what you want from a good pair of jeans. Definitely felt like Kim would be proud of me. Here are the details:     Coat: H&M Similar here: https://www.zaful.com/lapel-collar-bell-sleeve-peacoat-p_228027.html   Cami: ... read more

WINTER 17 TREND: MILITARY COAT

This look will have you standing at attention for Sergeant Chic.  When Balmain exploded in the fashion world it brought with it not only the rise of Kardashians in high fashion but also a loud take on classic fashion silhouettes - a velvet jacket but with pearl embroidery, an exceptionally thick belt around the waist and wool coats and blazers with rows of gold buttons. Balmain helped pioneer the return of the military style coat and whereas designers like Ferragamo, Burberry and Ralph ... read more

Pink Matching OOTD ft. Kick of Koritsu

I've become quick friends with Missie Yamamura from the DIY and thrift blog Kick of Koritsu. Missie and I both attend the same university and I always catch her at Urban Outfitters where she works. A few Facebook messages later and we are like avocado on toast - each other's perfect pair! Missie and I actually met up at a cafe one day for the best avocado toast in Portland, coincidentally wearing matching colored outfits. So we knew we had to shoot an OOTD in them - when bloggers get together ... read more

OOTD: Sports Luxe

    Sports luxe, athleisure, or whatever it is you wanna call it - it's fabulous. I love the athleisure trend and I love wearing black and white.
