Print Romper: Forever 21 Plus Size (Similar Here)

Fringe Bag: H&M (Here)

Yellow Wedges: Lola Shoetique (Similar Here)

Can you guess what my current spring obsession is? Yes you guessed correctly! I’m on my fourth romper from the plus size section at Forever 21 (I highly recommend that you consider the plus size section at Forever 21 because they have some AMAZING clothes). Rompers are so comfy, they look chic, and can be dressed up or down. I am huge on versatility because I like to wear my items both day and night. Now that its getting warmer here in Los Angeles, they are a must. It gets too hot and personally with my body type, they’re very appropriate and still sexy! For a pop of color, I had to bring out my bright wedges from Lola Shoetique.

What’s your spring obsession?

P.S. I Love You

Last weekend we attended a family wedding. We had such a great time because you can really learn from other couples on what love is. Love is something different to everyone else. It’s a beautiful thing to see a couple join as one and take each other for good or bad.

 

I decided to wear a leather dress from H&M (only $15), some strappy heels from Lola Shoetique, and of course my outfit wouldn’t be complete without my signature red lip!

 We went to H&M to try and find something to wear because we weren’t sure of what to wear for a winter wedding in California. We both went for a simple and chic look and wore black. Jesal decided to pick up a red skinny tie for a pop of color and wore some amazing pair of Monk-Strap shoes. 

Love always seems to be in the air, we like to believe that when you find that special someone you just know. One thing we have learned about love is that you can’t rush it. It’s something that takes time and patience. It’s always a work in progress. In December we completed our 7 year anniversary!!! We couldn’t be more happy and excited to start another year together because not only are we a team, but we truly are sole mates.

We hope you all had an amazing New Year!

Los Angeles Love

 

There really is no way to describe how I feel about Los Angeles. I will say that I am one of those people who are proud of where they’re from. I am Latina and my family is from Mexico but my heart will always belong in the City of Angels. Some of my favorite songs are based on Los Angeles, like Red Hot Chili Peppers “Under the Bridge” or Tom Petty “Free Falling”.

Black Ankle Booties: Forever 21 (Similar Here)

Growing up here has been very memorable! From Down Town LA, to Santa Monica beach, and cruise back to the Valley. There’s nothing you can’t do. My favorite thing about living in LA is the people and all the cultures. There are all kinds of people and inspiration. My favorite thing to do is people watch and try to figure people out, find out what their story is.

The weather here is finally starting to cool down and its time to bring out the sweaters, high thigh socks, and booties!  This sweater has to be one of my favorites at the moment because there are multiple ways you can wear it, its definitely a must in a woman’s wardrobe this season!

Fashion Week Pt. 2- Project Ethos

I know were a little late on this post but we still wanted to share our experience that we had at a Los Angeles Fashion Week Event. We were so lucky when our friend Claudia from The Penny Closet invited us to join her for the Project Ethos Fashion Show. We also had the pleasure of meeting a local blogger Andriana from La Moda By Andriana. We shared a lot of common interests as well as live in the San Fernando Valley. It's amazing how you meet people and connect with them on a lot of levels.

We both decided to wear darker colors since we have transitioned over to fall. Jesal kept it simple and chic in burgundy corduroys and a button up and Kim decided to keep it classy and flirty in fringe and florals. (We swear we didn’t plan on matching!!!)

He's Wearing:

Blazer: H&M

Pinstripe Dress Shirt: Rock & Republic

Houndstooth Tie: H&M

Tie Bar: The Tie Bar

Black Skinny Jeans: H&M

Chelsea Boots: H&M 

 

Having Fashion Week in Los Angeles this past week was a amazing experience. We got the chance to attend that grand opening of The Left Shoe Company store in West Hollywood. This was one of a few events that we attended, and we must say we had such a great time drinking wine and checking out all of their great shoes.

   My beautiful fiance wore this lovely black dress and accessorized it with gold jewelry and an awesome clutch.

 

The event was a really great experience for us because we got to mingle with the creative minds of The Left Shoe Company and other local bloggers. They were also offering a chance to get custom made- to-measure footwear. Another local designer was also offering the chance to get a Bespoke suit.

 

 This was our first but definitely one of the best events from our busy Fashion Week. We are truly grateful to be apart of the fashion scene we have here in the beautiful city of Los Angeles. Blogging has really opened up doors for us and taught us many things. One of the best things it has done is help us creat friendships and meeting really unique, open minded, creative people that we now call friends.

In Bloom

I think band tee shirts are really cool, especially when you like the band your representing. Nirvana has always been one of my favorite bands along with Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Incubus, 30 Seconds to Mars, and the list goes on and on. I added the blazer for a pop of print and kept is simple with the wine colored boots.

Faux Leather Leggings: G Stage (Similar Here)
Bite Me- Wine Boots: Lola Shoetique (Here)

Crystal Evil Eye Ring: Jewelry Holics (Here)

I did some research on the evil eye and why people wore it as jewelry and then became obsessed with wearing them as a good luck charm. I spotted this ring at Jewelry Holic's booth at the Flea Market in Pasadena and they were nice enough to send me this ring of choice. They have amazing and trendy jewelry for very great prices.

I’ve always wanted some bad ass pair of Doc Martens but didn’t want to break the piggy bank.  These wine colored boots from Lola Shoetique are the closest thing and they happened to be my favorite color. I didn’t over spend but what I am going to do is over wear these boots for the fall and winter.

The one thing I do like about my style is that I am definitely not shy to break away from my chic girly looks and outfits. Once in a while it's fun to go for the different looks and trends.  Just go with it!

Wild Flowers

Pink Dress: G Stage (Similar Here)
Floral Kimono: DTLA (Exact Here)
White Gladiator Sandals: Rhapsodielle (Similar Here)
White Belt: H&M (Similar Here)
Gold Necklace: Cotton On (similar Here)

 
Floral has to be my favorite print of all time because it can be used all year round, especially during the Summer. It’s a great way to accessorize a simple outfit or can be the focal point. 

 

Gladiator sandal heels are the talk of the Summer, these were a lucky find at a local boutique. I also have these in black because they are conformable and very trendy.

A lot of our blogger crushes are starting to show their versatility using floral prints. It can be paired with stripes, pop of colors, or denims. We really feel that it gives a refreshed and polished Summer feel to any outfit. Kimonos are very fun to throw on over a dress, shorts and a tee, or jeans. I will probably live in this Kimono during this hot Summer.

**************

We decided to team up with Canadian style duo Katherine from ourMode to bring you all a floral collaboration. We love how Katherine paired stripes with the beautiful top and the way she used pink as pop of color. For her outfit details, please make sure to check out their website.
