Sweater Weather






















Long Duster Sweater: Tilly's
White tee: L.A. Hearts by Pacsun
Black suede bell bottoms: Tilly's
Tan ankle boots: Cathy Jean
Over shoulder purse: Valentina
Rings: They were my grandma's 
Necklace: Charming Charlie

 Tilly's has some really timeless pieces considering they are not 'high fashion' retail. The pants and sweater have so much style for a fraction of the price elsewhere. To keep the style consistent, I went for a bohemian look with the bell bottom pants, fringed bag, and a dramatically long crochet sweater. People may associate all these things with being too 70's looking, but it does not have to be that way. It is rather hard to pair closed toe shoes with wide legged pants because it can quickly look awkward, but if you choose a contrasting color to a small detail like the strap on the purse it will tie in nicely. Sweaters have slowly assimilated into the world of designer and you can't find a trendier sweater than this one. To dress it up, wedges and a maxi dress would be just as appropriate. It is best to keep all one length when wearing this sweater so the hems don't contrast, you don't want to overdo it.

CRAZY PANTS

Black Tee: Cotton On  Boots: ASOS Crescent moon necklace: F21 Turquoise necklace: Charming Charlie Sunglasses: Banana Republic Pants: Roxy Nothing says statement more than these pants, they have to be one of my favorite pairs that I own. Selena, Wendy, and I planned to go to LA and I knew we would be stumbling across this infamous pink wall on Melrose, so of course I planned to wear these pants b/c they have pink in them & I knew they would look cute against the wall (my OCD about matching goes to a whole another level sometimes). I bought these at the Roxy/ Quiksilver store and fell in love with them instantly. I actually think they are meant to just wear to the beach over your bathing suit (because they have that linen feel), but why limit it to that?! I have tried to wear these pants with other combinations of colors to bring out the accents, but nothing looks as good as plain black. To bring out color, I wore two necklaces bu...

Malibu Wine Safari

Hat: Brixton Dress: H&M White tee: Boohoo Belt: Pacsun Sunglasses: RayBan Shoes: Steve Madden Necklace: Urban Outfitters Bracelets: one is 'Tiffany' and one I got in France  I did the Malibu Wine Safari last month for my other friend's birthday and my life was made when I got to feed my spirit animal, a llama. March was full of wine and birthdays haha. These hats made a total comeback and while a black one would've looked just as cute, I like to add color and match my sunglasses hehe. I added the white t-shirt under the dress to #1 match my shoes, and #2 make it have more of a school girl look. I like layering tees under things it makes the look more unexpected. It is important to pick silver or gold when accessorizing. Although mixing is not a crime I am OCD about it all matching. I love the reflective RayBans because the turquoise is my favorite color and it makes any outfit pop. Even hanging them from your shirt acts as an ...

Boho Scene

Bustier Crop Top: Tilly's Tribal print maxi skirt: Brandy Melville Leather boots: ASOS Charm bracelet: H&M Earrings: Forever 21 Fedora: Forever 21 I love this skirt for one reason and that is the slit going down the side. Maxi skirts can actually be quite awkward if they have a straight hem because then a lot of shoes look weird with it. The slit allows you to wear different style shoes because it is still a long skirt, but it is open enough to see your legs and your shoes clearly. I chose this top because I did not want to use a boring black crop top because I think it is too predictable. I love this top because the color is really pretty and it is made for high-waisted skirts or shorts as such. The zipper in the front and the criss-cross straps in the back are all little details that make it stand out more than a regular top. Granted, a regular black shirt would still make this outfit really cute. To even out the black from my...
