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.

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!

Black Sheep

         He’s Wearing
           Quilted Jacket: H&M
            Basic T-Shirt: H&M
            Black Chinos: 21MEN
         Oxfords: H&M

I have always been known as the “Black Sheep” of my family. This started because I was always very different, creative, artistic. Lately I have been using less color in my wardrobe, I have always been a fan of very minimal monochromatic looks.

I love this quilted jacket I found at H&M. I think its very versatile piece it has very nice structure, fit, and awesome details. With this type of jacket you could do many things I kept it simple just throwing it over a basic T-shirt. With Fall right around the corner its going to be a great addition to layered look.

 

There is something about a all black look that love. I think you could never do wrong with dark ensemble. it’s a very flattering color and just looks chic and elegant when done properly. Men need to own a pair of black oxfords to pair it with a killer black suit or less formal like I did with this look,

We have been enjoying the summer so much that we have took time off our blog. Slowly but surely were getting back to work and bringing you guys some more of our looks that we have been shooting. Were looking forward to fall much like everyone else we feel it’s a great time for great season for fashion.

Teen Spirit

Glam grunge is back ladies! Let’s throw it back with some flannels, beanies, leather jackets and leggings all together to create one outfit, yes I said one outfit!  For this spring another huge trend is layering vintage clothing with a sophisticated twist. Can you just feel that “Teen Spirit” running through your veins?

In my opinion, the 1990’s bold and dangerous grunge fashion trend is kind of hard to pull off. The great thing about this trend is you don’t have to go shopping for a new outfit; you can pull things out from your own closet. The key is to layer clothing such as loose sweaters and tops, ripped jeans, cropped tops and mix patterns and prints.

Some more must haves for this look are flannels, a band or graphic t-shirt, and definitely leggings. Stick with darker colors and leather (leather jacket, leggings, skirts, boots…etc!) Be sure to make your fashion effort look effortless and layer, layer, layer!

Sporty Spice

Who would’ve known Mel C AKA Sporty Spice knew that the sporty trend was cool all along. I must say I was a big fan of the Spice Girls growing up but Sporty Spice was not my favorite because I didn’t like her outfits. My opinion has changed completely after seeing some amazing pieces on the runways for this Spring.

She’s Wearing
Varsity Tee-Shirt: Forever 21 (Here)
Grey Sweat Shorts: H&M (Similar Here)
Two-Tone Heels: Go Jane (Similar Here)
Statement Necklace: Forever 21 (similar Here)
Knuckle Rings: H&M (Here)

I am really excited that the “sporty chic” trend is going to be huge this Spring because it gives me a chance to step outside of my comfort zone. Looking for some athletic inspiration, I looked through some of my blogger crushes’ instagrams and websites. I noticed that in order to pull this look off you must dress it up.

A few pointers I have for channeling your sporty outfits is to first find an affordable and edgy top with number patches. Make sure that either the top you decide to wear  is fitted and the bottoms are loose or vice versa.  Mix feminine with tomboy by adding a statement necklace, earrings, or rings. I would’ve even added a leather baseball cap if I was going to be out in the sun. Have fun with it! I’m going to challenge myself this Spring to see how many different ways I can wear this shirt, keep a look out for that.

Night Life

 He’s Wearing
Navy Slim Suit-: H&M
Spread Collar Shirt: H&M
Bow Tie: H&M
Pocket Square: Atlas & Mason
Wingtips: Aldo

Is the navy blue suit the new black suit? Not really but it does look extremely good and is less formal. I got my suit and tie on for this event that took place at the “W “Hotel in Los Angeles hosted by Annex Magazine. I really enjoy simple outfits and  keeping it minimal. As you can tell by this ensemble, understated sometimes makes more of an impact.

A fitted suit can always make a man feel more confident. To all gentlemen, get your clothing tailored! If you can’t find the right fit, invest in a good tailored suit because it will pay off in the long run. Luckily for me this slim suit from H&M was fitted and I didn’t have to go through all the trouble to get it tailored.

I’m all about the modern look and clothing that fit my body type. With this look I went with blue scheme mixing a dark blue suit with a light blue pinstripe button down. Because men can and in my opinion should  accessories, I decided to add a dark blue knit bowtie and a gifted Atlas & Mason  pocket square. When you look good you definitely feel good. The best part about transitioning seasons is getting to wear more dressy attire. Make sure to let us know which outfits you like more, the casual or dressy.

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!

Lawless

He’s Wearing
Panama Hat: Target
Wayfarer Sunglasses: Ray Bans
Button up: H&M
Distressed Jeans: H&M
Loafers: Aldo

This Outfit was heavily influenced by the “Roaring Twenties“. The fashion of that time is one of my favorites because it reminds me of Al Capone. I feel he was one of the best dressed people that ever lived because he was very classy.

Thanks to GQ Magazine, I was able to find a panama hat at Target for a great price . Panama hats are classier but if you are not comfortable wearing this type of hat, you can always wear a fedora. I threw it on with a black button up and some really cool distressed jeans (both from H&M) for a laid back look.

    These leopard print loafers from Aldo are probably my favorite shoes for the Summer. I am a loafer junkie because loafers could be dressed up with a suit or dressed down with jeans. I like to have one thing that stands out in my outfits and these loafers definitely do the job.

 We can’t believe summer is coming to an end but that doesn’t mean I can’t transition pieces from my summer wardrobe into next season. Make sure to stay tuned as I conclude my summer looks.
