All the World is a Garden
Today’s look is titled after a quote from The Secret Garden movie, my favorite movie of all time! <3 (I should read the book, I know ^__^;;) I love florals! It’s probably the only consistent print I’ve been in love with through all my style changes over the years. Florals are classic and I don’t think they’ll ever really not be “in.” With this outfit,...

Your Eyes Are the Brightest of All the Colors
Yesterday I received my first package from ASOS and I was excited to wear this mint green dress! I’m so happy I decided to get it. The material is really thick and a nice quality… plus the color is so BRIGHT! I love it!! There are two ways I was thinking about wearing it: either in a chic way or a more boho way. I went with chic by accessorizing with this studded collar plus a gold...

Catching Daylight
Blogging is already so engrained in my head that all I worry about after work is trying to rush home so I can catch daylight for my blog photos! Haha. Tonight I headed home a bit later though because my boyfriend and I went out to dinner =) So, sorry about the dingy, dark background. I love this spaghetti-strapped floral tank top from American Apparel. It’s one of their few prints and I...

Ring Around the Rosie
I love slouchy off-shoulder shirts/sweaters! American Apparel has been making this floral textured sweater/shirt for awhile now and I eyed it for a long while before I purchased it but I’m glad I did! Textured items give the interest of a pattern without being as busy as a pattern.  Pink Floral-Textured Sweater: American Apparel Blue High-Waisted Pants: American Apparel Gray Belt:...

Rainy Days
Here in Los Angeles we don’t have to worry about “bad weather” very often. When it comes to rainy days, usually I feel lazy about dressing up because all I’m wearing is a huge warm jacket all day anyways! Plus hair always gets ruined. >__> But alas, this blog is pushing me to at least accessorize with my jacket! haha. Ironically I love rainy days. I wanted to try and...

A Small Bit of Cuteness
I’m only just now starting to pair my button down shirts with sweaters but I love the touch of color you can add to an outfit with just the collar and sleeves peeking out! This shirt is especially long and the sweater is especially short… but I think it works, do you? And then my favorite part of this outfit is the small bit of cuteness added with a handmade kitten pin! I think it adds...

Ophelia
Today my boss said I looked like Ophelia, haha. Then my other boss said I looked like Jesus -__-;; Flower headbands are starting to drift into the fashion scene again. I love it! I just received some yesterday from Little Honey Pies on Etsy and I had to put together an outfit for it. Also, I wore my new Jeffrey Campbell Litas! Probably most definitely not my first pair…. ^__^ Lace...

Asymmetry
I love asymmetrical skirts! They’re definitely one of the  new trends to follow this year. This outfit is pretty basic: asymmetrical skirt + crop top + jean jacket and accessories. Usually when I’m wearing mostly black and white I like to add a bit of red somewhere, this time some red lips!  Excuse my first photo with my jacket being all wonky. Woops! Let’s just say it was on...
