Ombré… in more ways than one.

tank: Forever 21. ombré denim top: stole it from my best friend. Thanks Fran! (similar here). jeans: H&M (similar). purse: Forever 21. shoes: Sperry Top-Sider (similar). watch: Michael Kors. necklace: Forever 21 (old – liking this one). sunglasses: Forever 21.

As you can tell, I’ve done a bit of ombre-like craziness to my hair for the summer. Wanted something new and different, and that’s exactly what I got. I’ve always been the type to be crazy with my clothes and accessories, never touching my hair. So this was a fun experiment. (and definitely an eventful experience) So now the question is … What do you think?

Wynwood Walks

tee & blouse (as a jacket): Forever 21 (similar). jeans: H&M. heels: c/o Shoe Privee. jewelry: necklaces – Forever 21, cuff – Forever 21, watch – Michael Kors, bracelet – David Yurman.

The weather has been extremely grey and rainy this weekend. MEEEH!!!! Needed to brighten up my day with some bright colors so I layered this neon blouse over my basic v-neck and white jeans.

Leather & Neon.

Coming out of the Easter weekend where everyone is dressed in pastels, linen, and bright colors… I’ve decided to do this week a little differently.

Today I’m wearing an oatmeal colored tee from Zara (similar here), zipper-at-the-ankle-jeans from H&M (similar here), and Zara heels. The bracelet is from Forever 21, but really old. (I found this really cool one at ASOS for you.)

I would call this look the Pastel Rebellion? The pants of wax? It’s a little bit Ashley and a little bit of Rock-n-Roll? Or I could just call it “Leather & Neon.” hence the already given title to the post. Whatever it is, it doesn’t change that I love everything about this outfit. The detailing of the gold zippers, combined with the neon and snake prints south of my ankles, plus the tee shirt that looks plain Jane until you see my shoulders (and you’re like WOAH! Leather accents!!!)- it all falls together just right.

side note: that was my reaction when I found it, so I’m guessing it might be yours too… *wishful thinking*

This is me, side noting once again: My boyfriend Adrian tagged along with me in this shoot (He’ll say I made him… which he could be right, but I’m not telling). He couldn’t resist being behind the camera, so when we were finished, he jumped right in and played the “suave, macho man” part. Not too shabby. I laughed so much with this collage that Janelle put together!

Breaking the Rules.

top: H&M. jeans: H&M. shoes: Urban Outfitters c/o my beautiful friend Andrea. sunglasses: Karen Walker. accessories: Michael Kors watch, Forever 21 cuff.

In honor of the beginning of Spring, I decided to break the “rules” of the don’t wear white after Labor Day. Yeah, whatever. I live in Miami and the weather here is always tropical, so it’s hard to stop yourself from not wanting to wear your whites. It’s crisp, clean (unless you have the same tendency that I do to somehow dirty yourself), and fun because you have so much opportunity to give the outfit some personality. Like I did here, with these adorable snake loafers. If it’s not the shoes, it’s the accessories too. Check out 3 other ways I would pair the all white look with:

white top & pants

Look #1
ASOS Sunglasses
Steven by Steve Madden Crossbody Bag (This is my “steal” version of the Cambridge Satchel)
ASOS Floral Print Loafers

Look #2
ASOS Croc Laptop Case (Twofer: I would so use this as a clutch too!)
Nine West Heels

Look #3
MAC Lipstick
Jessica Simpson Wedges

Go ahead, give it a try. Break the rules & embrace it!
