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*

Forever Oversized

Seasons Greetings! I know I've been having gaps in my posts, but I've been busy! But it is about time that we feel the chilly weather in the air, which gives me more reasons to get coats and jacket (my current obsession).

This jacket by Sessun has completely caught my attention. Very tomboy style with the grey tones and the leather elbowpads. Easily paired back to a clean black outfit, you can do no wrong. Sessun can be found on online retailers, Farfetch and Madewell. My bomber jacket is obviously oversized as I purchased a medium size, I hate it when the jackets are tight around the shoulders. As you can see, this look is me trying to channel my inner parisian self. Teehee.

I also got a hair cut, so I can try using my Bumble and Bumble hair spray, which I hope will give me that natural beach wave hair style I've been wanting!

The other investment pieces featured in this post are Balenciaga cut out ankle boots, Chanel medium boy bag, Rag & Bone jeans, uniqlo long sleeve v neck, and giant vintage sunglasses! 

Textures & Prints

Floral prints and quilted textures is what my blog is about today. I've been inspired by many bloggers these days that do a lot of mix and matching with their pieces. A year ago when I bought these two pieces from Topshop, I would never have thought of pairing them together, but it works because of the subtle colors. The neutral white and grey adds a light color scheme, and the floral prints with the quilted textures adds a bit of elegance to it.

What really spices the whole outfit is definitely the hem line of the skirt. Steering away from the midi skirt, I really went high to a mini A-line.

To top it off, the black booties are by Report with a 2 inch heel. Even though it's not much, but I love having a little it of height (I'm cheating because I wish I was taller). These booties are my go-to work shoes. Comfortable for long hours, yet it matches almost every...single...outfit I have!

I hope I could have somewhat been a bit inspirational for your own personal style :)

 

My sunglasses are a brown tortoise color that I purchased from a website called Giant Vintage Sunglasses for a really good price!
