Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool

I have no clue but this look I was inspired by the Fresh Prince of Be lair theme song. Chilling out maxin' relaxin' all cool, hands down most comfortable outfit you could wear. All day felt like I was wearing my Jammies out. Hey who wouldn't want to wear there jammies all day to work. I know I wouldn't turn down that offer. Great look for those hot days when you just dont know what to wear. Light weight shirt/shorts paired with a medium weight jacket.

Neon say WHAT?

A printed tee always works perfectly with any type of solid color skirt. For instance, today's look with a printed tee paired with a neon lace circle skirt. I went for a more edgy punk look today and wore some combat boots with a pair of sheer tights. The neon look is trendy and chic this summer. Pieces seen around from neon skirt/pants/shirt to neon jewelry. You can never have too much neon. Keep in mind it nice to have a few pieces in a look but don't go overboard with the whole neon look. This look is very easy to put together and very comfortable. I guess I would say this is what I would wear on a just a lazy day.

Someone Call the Mail Man!

I just got these shorts and they totally reminded me of the shorts that they would wear. I needed a pair of nice black shorts in my life and so glad I found these. These simple high waisted shorts are perfect for on the go and can be dressed up with a nice blouse with your hair in a bun.

I paired today's look with a simple front printed blouse with an open back chiffon detailing. Brought out the pop of red from the print and wore a red belt to add some fluidity to my outfit. Also I have introduced a new technique for a hair I found off the "Mr.Kate's" Pose ( Popular Fashion blogger, youtube, and DIY innovator) which is call the Sock Bun. This cute hair up do is easy, very classic, and can change your look in a whole different direction.

When done you literally have to use a sock of this look. Photo sequence on how to do this look will be posted soon.

This post goes along with the hippy chick look but with a more trendy/defined print. Love these watercolor floral prints these days. Black and fusion with red are my all time favorite mix of color. Easy to pair with other piece you have in the closet like belts, shoes, jewelry , and bags.

Your never to old to rock a pair of nerdy frames. These have been going on for a while back now. They were still as hyped about as when I was in high school a while back. These glasses are an easy way to make your outfit look funky but cool. I love these because sometimes I don't even have to put make-up on in the morning, just through them on and I'm out the door. lol


Looks like I'm doing the Single Ladies dance. hahah. 
Oh oh oh all my single ladies all my single ladies.



You should always have a nerdy glasses pictures at some point in your life.





Dress: Target
Chiffon basic boat neck dress with a open back.

Sneak Peek Vegas dress

Brainstorming possible looks for my Vegas dresses. Draped this at my internship and still deciding weather I should change a few things. Let me know how you guys like it. Comments down below.:)

Brand New Babies


The whole platform pump is in ya'll and I'm loving it. This 5 inch platform strapy heel from madden girl is sure to do the trick. I'm 5'4 so any sort of platform I find I have to have it. Just being 5'9 is an awesome feeling maybe that just me though lol. Heels is any girls obsession you can never have to many.
 5 inch strapy platform by Madden Girl.


60's Mod

                This is hands down my most favorite look of the day.  A 60s inspired piece mod look and well incorporated with present day pieces. The collar look ties in my whole look and adds a wow factor to this basic look. Keep in mind don't go to crazy with accessories. Have this acronym in mind when putting together your own outfit of the day, K.I.S.S, which means "Keep It Simple Silly".

Advice of the Day:
Lets talk about basics and how you can alter them into something fabulous. Based on today's look I tweaked a basic black velvet into a cute mod look. As you can see I've added a few buttons on the bodice of the dress and that tied in perfectly with this collar. Also for a pop of color I mixed in a red belt and a teal bag.




Heels make legs look amazingly good! Don't you agree?

Cutest wedges ever. If you don't see they're black and white striped. They kind of remind me beetle juice when I first got them which is why I had to get them.


Dress: Forever 21
Black velvet basic dress. Buttons added by me a little personal touch.
Bought for $18 at Wasteland.

Belt: Goodwill
Vintage red split leather belt with metal buckle.
Bought this at a thrift store for $2.

Collar: Made by KimchiDiaries ( Me)
I made this to tie in with the whole collar fad that's going on right now.

Shoes: Sheikh
5 inch platform ankle bootie with black/white stripe print.
Got as a gift. My family knows me too well.

 Hope this was at all helpful to you guys! Happy Shopping! Cheers.
