Bomb(ers) Away!

Hey all, hope you had a great Valentines Day! ~ Today I show some 'tude in my all black ensemble and blush pink bomber jacket. I am in love with the idea of the bomber jacket lately. A jacket that is meant to be light to keep you comfortable, yet still enough to avoid any wind. I fell in love with this jacket from Allsaints (no surprise) because of its unique silk fabrication, making it a little more sleek, or as slang goes fleek. The detailing on this jacket is so amazing and not what you would expect when you turn around. 

I'm sure you've also noticed that I am not wearing boots for a change but these nike sneakers. Very unlike me, but I guess my blogger friend has influenced me just a smidgen. Plus with my ever lasting soul cycle love, I guess I gotta balance out the heels for some comfort once in a while. Not having heels for a change is actually very comfortable.....maybe a little TOO comfortable.

Playing with Lengths

Oh Los Angeles, you are too good to us los angelinos. Considering it is still considered winter (I think), we get such good weather. It felt good to get some vitamin D on my skin for a change. Keeping it really simple this Sunday with some good basics and dark hues. Since its technically winter, in an attempt to cover up, this lengthy, olive cardigan from Topshop somewhat covers up all the leg I have been showing around town today. The length cardigan also gets to cover up how pasty I look. On the one hand I love being so pale, but then I like being tan ._. I can never win. 

My boyfriend shorts are extremely distressed by Rag & Bone. I have to tread carefully just so it doesn't rip anymore! Fingers crossed. However, I have my eyes on the black version of these shorts which are super cute, you might be seeing them on some future summer post....teehee. I say boyfriend shorts but I drastically sized down so I can achieve a tighter fit.

It's fun to mix and match different pieces from my closet together. Keeping with my resolution is so difficult by the way, I hope you guys are having better luck than I am *sad face*

Sparkle It Up

Happy December, readers! It is THE best time of the year, and the first time I'm posting this month. It's been so hectic with the end of my second to last semester of college...gah! But in the back of my mind and almost any second that I have a free thought, all I can think about is CHRISTMAS! And as we transition into the holidays, its time to bring out those holiday outfits for all the parties and dinners coming up! This dress from Allsaints does exactly just that. Combining the sexy appeal of lace, this dress also has little sparkly beads that shine under the light. I like that sparkle, but I guess its because I like to be the center of attention? Haha.

Underneath the whole ensemble (which was not included in my purchase), I wore black shorts and a tank to get that needed coverage. This is a more realistic approach so show some skin but still be covered. If you have not seen the Victoria Secret Fashion Show, Taylor Swift's outfit in the last segment was phenomenal, and if I could wear an outfit like that on the daily I probably would, but in the meantime, this is as much skin as I'll show this holiday season :)

It's all about the DETAILS!

 

Allsaints has a new version of this dress on their website, and they're currently having an end of the season sale which you should NOT miss out on. Great pieces.

Dolce Vita

 Can you feel the heat lately? Spring is somewhat right around the corner, and what other way to transition than into some lace! This Valentina dress is from Dolce Vita's December giveaway and I was lucky enough to win. The crochet detail is so beautiful. The sheer sleeves is great for the not too cold and not too hot weather. It's just right.
Although Valentines day is a month away, it would be the perfect date dress!

Off Duty

Happy 2014 everyone! I hope you had an amazing holiday and New Years with your loved ones.

I titled this post Off Duty because of tumblr inspiration from model's off duty streetstyle looks. This is how I would dress all the time if I didn't get persuaded to buy lots of colorful pieces of clothing. What I love about this look is that it is simple, chic, and stylish, but most importantly comfortable! It was one of those "running your errands" type of day, but I could not resist to stop by Americana in Glendale. Layering with a red flannel on top of my Ain't No Wifey Tank. 

I am also wearing my Cargo Leather Jacket I got from Allsaints, which is THE BEST leather jacket. It was worth every penny.

 

My lower half consists of complete Rag & Bone pieces. The jeans are the RBW 23 Skinny Jeans which is a thicker fabric and doesn't give much stretch so my suggestion is to size up one size! Hands down Rag & Bone jeans are amazing with its featured zip pockets and ankle zips as well.

The booties are also Rag & Bone, the Harrow Leather Ankle Boot. With a decent heel that is not too high, it is comfortable and does not need to be broken into. They do run small as well so I would size up a whole size! 

 Last but not least, can't forget the Prada bag! It finally made its debut.

Layers on Layers

Layers on layers! I get cold really easily so this ensemble can protect me for the entire day. The knit sweater I'm wearing has been in my closet since high school so its getting its comeback today. Underneath, I layered with a white floral button up because I like pairing collars and sweaters. My biker jacket with quilted shoulders gives this look a tough girl look (at least I think so). Don't laugh at me! Leggings also keep me warm and toasty, but still show off my silhouette.

Another Shade of Grey

 This season I've been purchasing a lot of peppered grey clothing, but I guess that is my go-to color for the holidays! I haven't worn a turtleneck sweater since middle school, but this sweater has an oversized fit which I love. I paired it with a faux leather cut-out skirt which adds a different texture and dimension.

 

This year, I have become a skirt girl. If you knew me, I now own a ton of skirts. I just can't get enough!

The Beginning

Hi all! I'm Nita and I'm beginning my blogging journey. After much encouragement to make a blog, here I am!

Please enjoy my posts :) 

This simple outfit was put together for my first week at my new job! I needed something professional, yet edgy, which is why I put together the basic black with a fitted blazer. Top it off with buckled boots by Allsaints, which has been one of the best purchases I've made so far (in terms of shoes). Well, Happy Sunday~
