Dressed In White

Hey Hey!

So this summer I've seen so many people wearing white outfits and I was so inspired to do one of my own. I recently picked up this all white maxi in a haul (here) and I knew it would be a great item for summer. 

What I got for Christmas

Hello Beautiful people!

So my family doesn't give gifts to each other but I have some wonderful friends that I got gifts from and I thought it would be a fun post share what I got. I just had my friendmas this past weekend so technically this post isn't too late. Click below to see what I got! 

What's in my 2nd RocksBox?!?

Hello Lovely Friends!

So I'm back with my 2nd Rocksbox review! I've had this box for quite awhile but I haven't gotten around to reviewing it. If you don't know what Rocksbox is a monthly service that loans you designer jewelry for a monthly rate. Now I did like this box a lot more than the first one.

Spring Trend: Fringe

Hey Lovelies!!!

I hope everyone is having an amazing weekend so far! Is anyone watching the Olympics? I am and I'm excited for the "Walking Dead" to start tonight too! But yeah I'm going to try something different in this post. I usually post outfit pictures and sometimes inspiration boards. Today I'm going to write about a Trend and please let me know what you think. :)

I know right now NYFW is happening and we are seeing upcoming trends for Fall 2015 but since Spring is coming up I thought we should look at one of the trends for the upcoming season. One of the big trends that was seen on the runway's for Spring 2014 was..."Fringe."

Rodarte's Runway showed fringe in black and white on there asymmetrical skirts shown above. The last photo show's fringe on the cropped top as well. I like how the fringe is more Rock Star then the typical bohemian style we usually see fringe.

Calvin Klein's runway also showed fringe in black and white but in dress form. Calvin Klein on the other hand produced a more sophisticated look with the fringe and placing the fringe in different ways.

Lastly one of my Favorite's by Anna Sui, she combined fringe with prints making it a bit more girly and a little more closer to the usual Bohemian way we see fringe. 

Now you might look at the photos above and think I don't think I can wear fringe or like me I don't know if they have fringe pieces that would be in my size. Well that's why I always think of ways of incorporating or trying out a trend that can work for any size and wont cost much too. Your probably thinking what how? Well you can always incorporate trends with accessories.

One way you can accessorize with fringe are Bags, above are a few different bags that you could use with the trend, you can click on the number to see where they are from. I think bags are an easy accessory to incorporate a trend into the wardrobe that you already have. I actually have a favorite that has fringe on it that I haven't used in awhile, so I'm excited to use this bag for spring and summer this year.

Another accessory that is great to incorporate the fringe trend are necklaces. They're a great way to accessorize a regular outfit and add a new twist to your current wardrobe. Necklaces are a way to sport the trend without it being all in your face fringe. Plus I think these fringe necklaces would be great statement necklaces. 

Those are just a few ways you can add "Fringe" to your wardrobe. A few other ways can be earrings, a vest, and even shoes would be a great way to incorporate the trend. So if you want to try a trend but think it might be to hard to incorporate it, try an accessory first and go from there. It's all about what you feel comfortable with and what you like, so if a trend isn't for you remember it's OK. What do you think of the trend Fringe? Will you be sporting this trend in Spring?

Baseball cap trend

Hello Everyone, I hope you all had a great week and if you didn't, well it's the weekend so you can make it better by doing something great. I know that it's Friday and I used to do Friday favorites but I decided not to do that anymore and I'm just going to do monthly favorites instead. 

So today I wanted to write about a trend I've been seeing a lot of and that is baseball caps. I know that summer is approaching and that also means baseball season but the baseball cap is something that is being worn more then just at baseball games. You can see this trend being worn on the Runway and on every day women. 

Baseball caps on the Runway, you can see that it was worn not just with sporty attire but with girly look as well.

Baseball caps aren't just a great accessory that you can use to give a little something different to an outfit and they can also help keep the sun out of your eyes on a sunny day. Plus there are so many different styles out there of baseball caps that you are bound to find a style that fits you. I know I'm not a person that has ever worn a baseball cap before because one I'm not a very sporty person. But I think after seeing the different ways that people are wearing the baseball hats, I'm thinking I might try this trend out for the summer.

Brighten up a gray day

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is having a great week so far! The weather here in California has been overcast and raining. Oh this weird weather. But on the bright side cooler weather means I get to wear some of my warmer clothing again. I love layering and to be honest I love cold weather more then I like hot weather because I don't like the feeling of being hot. But don't get me wrong I like when the weather is warm just not scorching hot but it gets like that in California. So I'm glad that we get this little break from the scorching hot weather. 

I love the earrings that I'm wearing, they're like long chains and I got them from forever 21 and I feel kinda rock and roll in them. I'm a very girly girl but I love to add little touches that make me less girly. At the same time I don't like being too dark you can say, that's why I decided to wear this mint colored sweater with all the dark colors that I was wearing.

I love these boots that I'm wearing too because they lace up. I'm the kind of person that has a hard time finding boots because I have big calves. So finding a pair of boots that fit over my calves is really hard, that's why I really like these boots because they are lace up you can adjust them to fit. So I suggest if you are like me and have a hard time finding boots that fit your calves you should try some lace up boots. :) 

Lastly a picture with my doggy Mocha because she loves to come out when I'm taking pictures. 

Have a wonderful day ~ Nina ~

Envelope Clutches

Hey Everyone, I hope everyone is having a great week so far. I on the other hand I have not been feeling too well, I think it's because this crazy California weather, one day its scorching hot and the next its overcast and cold. But I'm starting to feel better now. I hope the weather makes up it's mind soon because I don't want to get sick again. hehe :) 

Well one of my favorite things in fashion is accessories because they can transform jeans and t-shirt look to something fabulous with the right accessories. Plus accessories don't really have a size so they look great on everyone! Right now I'm really loving envelope clutches, I think there chic and they can add just the right amount of style to any outfit. Plus they come in so many colors and styles, I'm sure everyone will be able to find one that fits them. 

Below is just a mood board that made of different envelope clutches so that you could see they come in a variety of colors and styles. All the bags below are all under $50 dollars too so that you can see that they are also very affordable. On the sides of the mood board are two pictures that show you two ways that the envelope clutch can be styled, I really like how both clutches in the pictures make a big difference in both outfits, they give a great punch of color and detail to both looks.

I also found a great tutorial on how to make an Envelope clutch with no sewing. I put the video below so that you can watch it or you can click on the link to watch it. (Here) In the tutorial she shows you two different clutches that you can make. She makes it seem really easy, I think I'm going to try it one of these days and I'll you all see how it goes. :)  

What do you think of Envelope clutches? What are some of your favorite accessories?

Emerald

Hey everyone and Thank You to all the new followers! :) So I was looking online to see if there was any emerald clothing out there for plus-size women, since it's the color of the year. But I noticed that the options were very limited, didn't see much clothing that was emerald. So I thought of ways that we could incorporate it into our wardrobe and they are listed below. 

Emerald by curvy-mod featuring nicholas kirkwood shoes

1. Accessories - I think this is the easiest way to add emerald into your current wardrobe. For example adding a emerald clutch or some emerald shoes to an outfit can be a great pop of color to an all black outfit. Or If your wearing an every day outfit of jeans and plain t-shit why not add an emerald scarf or some jewelry to really make the outfit extra special. 

2. Makeup - Now this is for the more adventurous people out there that like to change up there makeup. There are plenty of brands out there that have come out with emerald color shadows they look great as a nice smokey eye. But if your more of a neutral shadows kinda girl like me, there are also eyeliners in emerald colors that you can add to make your neutral eye pop. Another thing that I like to do is add a little bit of the colored eye shadow to the bottom of my lower lash line, so it's a little pop of color but not too crazy. 

3. Nail polish - One of the easiest ways to incorporate emerald into your wardrobe is through your nails. I looked online to see the different brands that had an emerald color and there are so many. Nail brands like essie, OPI, China glaze, Revlon and even forever 21 has an emerald color that you can choose from. 

So if your looking for a way to incorporate the color of the year, Emerald in your wardrobe these are a few things you can try. 

Have a wonderful day ~Nina~
