I’ve recently started seeing more and more bloggers rock graphic tees and it inspired me to try it out. I remember when I was in high school I would wear band tee shirts and graphic tees dressed up and I would get weird looks by all the “cool kids“. This really exited me because I got to kick it old school!

 I suggest getting a little creative when wearing a graphic tee. Dress it up with some jeans and throw a statement necklace on for a fashion-forward look. I would definitely wear heels if your going out at night for a classy look. Other items you can wear are a skirt, a bright blazer, or a vest (like I did). Avoid wearing anything that looks worn out.

Now, lets talk accessories. Above the knuckle rings are my current obsession. I think they add spice to a simple outfit, especially when you stack them. The best part about these rings is you can now purchase them online at H&M since this week they announced they are now open for online business. I provided the link above!!!!! I hope you all enjoyed my take on how to wear a graphic tee and stay tuned for more!

Pasadena Flea Market

Polka dots are a fun and timeless trend to wear. I decided to pick out this dress from G stage in small polka dot print because of my body frame. The smaller your body frame is, the more you might be able to get away with wearing big polka dots. If you are not comfortable wearing a full polka dot dress, an alternative is to have fun accessorizing a scarf, purse, flats, etc.

I decided to accessories this vintage looking belt to make my waist look smaller and to add some character to the outfit. Can we please just focus for a second on this beautiful Hamsa necklace I picked up at the Rose Bowl Pasadena Flea Market from Jewelry Holics booth. Please make sure to check out their instagram and website for amazing jewelry pieces.

Not only was it my first time going to the Pasadena Flea Market, I was very excited to finally meet Melanee. I also had the pleasure of meeting local photographer Dennis from Dennis Renaissance  . It was nice getting to know more local bloggers.

 I love to bargain shop and I picked up some really cute items from different booths for a steal. If you haven’t been to the Pasadena Flea Market, I highly suggest it. Everyone is friendly, the culture is beautiful and you might just spot someone famous (we saw Kat Von D).

Tough Guys Wear Floral

 He’s Wearing
M65 Field Jacket: Heritage
Spread Collar Dress Shirt:H&M:
Floral Tie: BDG
Watch: Timex
Jeans: 21Men
Wingtips: Steve Madden

I believe Summer is the time of year to stay basic . For this look I went with a statement floral tie that I love  from BDG. I paired this look with some white jeans which is the one item all men need in their wardrobe for the Summer.

This vintage looking M65 jacket that I use as a blazer at times is a light weight material and great for layered looks. The weather is sometimes unpredictable in LA so it is always good to carry around a jacket.

I have a sick obsession with statement shoes. These olive green Steve Madden Wingtips are one of my favorites at the moment. I feel like when men shop for a shoe we should think about how we can implement the shoes into several outfits. Make sure your wardrobe coexists with the shoe your going to buy.

As we continue to enjoy this L.A Summer, I hope you are enjoying yours.

Till next time,

For this look I decided to do a semi monochromatic look with a twist of camo and leather. It is getting warmer here in Los Angeles so this might be one of the few more times I can wear this jacket.

 Since it is getting warmer, you will start seeing me put my air up in a bun. This is the easiest and fastest way to complete any outfit. It can also give you the opportunity to accessorize some bold earrings or necklace. I decided to go with a spiked necklace from H&M to spice it up.

Down town Los Angeles is one of my favorite places to do some bargain shopping. There are several Lola Shoetique’s in LA which is where I buy most of my heels. These in particular have to be one of my favorites at the moment because they’re unique and similar to the JC’s. I was also lucky enough to find this jacket in down town at a great price.

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

My outfit was to compliment some of my favorite gals from Instagram to do a fun collaboration. Arleene decided to go with the purples, Melanee killed it in the nudes, and Lyndsey did cute pops of yellow. Please make sure to check out their fabulous blogs and Instagrams.
