Sometimes I think the whole concept of mixed- matching casual with dressy is a way to never feel out of place. Never over dressed and never under dressed. I love the concept but I especially love the look and feel to it because a girl’s gotta have a little glam, even when she’s dressing down. :)

Black and white together is no doubt classic and timeless but it’s not a big happy family until there’s some kind of colors thrown in. I actually had on flats, this tee and hair pulled back for running errands but right before we went out for the evening, I threw on heels, touched up hair and added accessories. It’s amazing how a few minor things can change the entire outlook.

When it comes to accessories, I’m more of a silver or gold kinda gal but the contrasting colors of mint, coral and purple of this Chiara statement necklace from 2Hello Beautiful definitely caught my eye and I love how it adds just the perfect touch to my summer staples.

Speaking of summer staples, I’m loving the 2013 Summer collection from Spiegel, which are mostly on sale right now! I have my eyes this Ponte Taylor jumpsuit for day, cute floral one piece swimsuit for the beach, and this bright blue maxi skirt for everyday.

The best thing about coming back from a week stay in a tropical place is that I brought back the sunshine. Or at least that’s what I like to tell myself because it’s been unbelievably warm in this little part of town (80 degrees +). With the weather heating up, my favorite go to pieces are these DIY cut off shorts that I made from old vintage levis, a comfy tank, crop moto that’s just too perfect for day and night and of course a hat for those uncooperative hair days! Hope you’re having a good hump day! xo

I love my jeans but there’s nothing as comfortable as my jeggings! They’re stretchable, lightweight, and great for staying cool during the summer. Jeggings normally fit your body like a glove and will accentuate every single little bumps. It doesn’t matter if you’re a size XS or XL, there are some things better left to the imagination. So to avoid the world from knowing I have butt dimples seeing unnecessary things, I like to pick a longer or over-sized top to give the jeggings a more refined look. :)

I wore this outfit when I was running around last week but threw on the shiny metallic Jimmy Choos and added the bold necklace for some extra sparkle for the evening. Since I’m on the go a lot, it’s important that I can find pieces that can easily transition me from day to night. Go here, for more denimocracy or here to purchase the pants!

Sunnyside Gal

Mother nature loves to screw with my emotions because one day it’s insanely hot then the next it’s so windy that I can’t even mind my own business without getting slapped by my hair. Well, to maintain a little predictability, I wore (my hair up and) my neon lime top yesterday as I’m guaranteed to bring a load of sunshine (literally) wherever I went. I paired this top with my new favorite trumpet skirt and added gold accessories for an evening out with good company.

I purchased these Valentinos studded lace pumps a long time ago but to me, they’ll never get old. These pumps are like a tough armour plating in the form of spiky pyramid-shaped studs, providing just enough metal for a rock-chic edge, contrasting with the delicate, romantic, and feminine soft black lace overlay. It’s the perfect combination of naughty and nice and if I could describe myself as a pair of shoes, these are definitely the one. Rharr! ;)

I have always been a huge fan of Valentinos and their ultra-feminine, classy and sophisticated styles. One of my favorite place to shop for all things Valentino is at Harrods. In addition, I also love the selections of DvF and Michael Kors. Check it out when you have a chance.
