Stud Me Up

May 1, 2012

Shirt: Thrifted, Shorts: DIY, Heels: Rebecca Minkoff, Sunglasses: Target, Stud Bracelet: Hot Topic, Bangles + Ring: F21

I'm not sure what it was, but something made the rocker side of me come out and I decided to wear all black, red lipstick, and stud up some shorts. Maybe it's the fact that I saw Korn a week ago or that I'm getting even more excited to see Rammstein in a few weeks, either way I think all this rock music has left an influence on my wardrobe. Lately I've been thinking of pairing crop top concert tees with all of my skirts and have been wanting to stud up my old black booties to wear with everything.

Has anything been influencing your wardrobe lately.

Fashion Chemistry

April 27, 2012

I'll be honest with you. I don't have the biggest wallet to buy new clothes all the time. Experimenting with your closet can be so much fun, and I feel like I've gotten better at mixing pieces and making them into something different. I guess it only makes sense, chemistry was one of my favorite subjects in school. I think it's good to find ways to get more from your clothing so I wanted to show you how I took one dress to create 3 different ways to wear it.

Taking a dress and wearing it as a skirt I think is a fun way to be girly without looking too formal. It gives you the chance to play around with whatever you are wearing on top to really create the mood you want.

I think this is such a great look for a strapless dress, especially when you don't feel like showing off your back and shoulders. Depending on the kind of shirt you pair it with, you can even give it a more casual feel.

Wearing the dress as a top and pairing with a maxi, gives you the best of both worlds. You get to keep the pretty neckline from your dress but you don't have to worry about showing off your legs.
