Romper Madness

Posted on June 23, 2015 by karissaestrada

I have that romper madness syndrome. I can’t do summer without rompers and that’s just a fact. When the sun is blazing, the last thing I want to do is figure out a chic outfit from head to toe. I’d much rather throw on a simple romper, possibly add a belt if I’m in the mood and head out the door. This romper is the perfect summer piece you just have to add to your closet. People thought that this outfit was a top and a bottom but little did they know that I didn’t try that hard. I think that’s what rompers are all about. They give the illusion that you really care but in reality, you don’t. In fact, I’m wearing a romper as I write this post. I’m just obsessed.

These pictures are a little bright to notice the fabulous detailing of the top portion of this romper. The best way for me to describe it is like an eyelet lace type of fabric. Click the link the below to see this detailing for yourself. Beware, you might fall in love.

Pretty Woman

Posted on June 20, 2015 by karissaestrada

How could I pass up a chance to be Julia Roberts on the movie, “Pretty Woman” for a day? I remember watching this movie when I was little with my mom and ever since then I have been on the hunt for the perfect polka dot dress. I tried my best to transform the infamous 1990’s outfit to more of a modern day, minimal look with a sleek leather jacket and hair in a low bun. I had no idea that I would be one to purchase a brown colored dress. I don’t think I own any brown clothing to be honest. It’s just not the most flattering color to wear but when you throw in some polka dots here and there, it’s automatically chic. I can’t wait to add more browns to my collection. I hope more people hop on this trend because it’s so unique.

Not only is the color of this dress out of my comfort zone but the low back feature is a whole ‘nother story. I NEVER buy anything with a low back because that just means finding a bra to wear them with. I’d rather be comfy and wear my normal bra than be uncomfortable in a back baring ensemble. I decided to take the risk and purchase this dress anyway because why not. I think I was so drawn to the fact that it reminded me so much of “Pretty Woman” I was blinded by the low back. I found a sticky bra (that’s surprisingly comfortable) and all my problems were solved.

I don’t think you understand how satisfied I feel knowing that I own a brown polka dot dress. Feeling like a pretty woman in this dress is a understatement…that’s for sure.

Denim Forever

Posted on June 17, 2015 by karissaestrada

Denim isn’t just about jeans anymore. Oh no girlfriend, it’s 2015 and we wear denim all over: Tops, skirts, shorts, dresses, purses, belts and even shoes. This infamous fabric has officially taken over the fashion scene and I’m not complaining one bit. There is nothing wrong with owning too much indigo, chambray and denim…or at least that’s what I continue to tell myself. I have an abnormal love for denim and all things blue. Every single person on this planet owns a piece of denim in their closet. It’s the number one absolute must-have wardrobe piece. I love to experiment with denim on a daily basis but my favorite thing to do pair denim with (surprise, surprise) even more denim. This look will never go out of style in my opinion. I really think it’s the easiest look to put together in a hurry. How do you glam it up you ask? It’s so simple. A red lip and heels, obviously. I could wear this outfit, and all similar denim on denim outfits, for the rest of my life. If I was a designer (as if) and I had my own collection, you bet it would consist of new twists and takes on modern day denim.

Denim, denim, denim. Have I said that word enough?

Denim…forever.

Scooters In Summer

Posted on June 14, 2015 by karissaestrada

Okay, hold up. A scooter printed top? Sign me up! I don’t think there is a cooler top on this planet to be honest. I got nothing but compliments and funny stares when I wore this lightweight, preppy tank and I didn’t mind because I know it’s the best. The shape is short and boxy: Exactly how I like my men. Ha. Just kidding Wyatt. I would wear this top with simple skinny or relaxed jeans on a casual day but decided to spruce it up with my favorite paperbag trousers.

I wore this look for 8 hours straight (because I have a big girl job now) and it was so comfortable and didn’t bother me at all. Sometimes even the cutest outfits can get a little uncomfortable but no, not this one. I really look for durable, sustainable outfits nowadays because I have to be able stand all day and move around easily in them. Looking cute is only my second priority. I seriously suggest checking out all the color ranges in this top because they might just be the silkiest and smoothest summer tank I’ve ever owned. I have nothing negative to say about it. So there.

Easy, Breezy, Beautiful…Kimono

Posted on June 11, 2015 by karissaestrada

I figured this statement, yet comfortable, outfit would be the perfect one to wear on my first day of my big girl job. I’m feeling all sorts of blessed and hopeful for the future and what better way to express that than this smile on my face and a fabulous kimono on my back, right? Why haven’t I hopped on the kimono train earlier? Maybe it’s because I haven’t found the perfect one, until now. This gold splattered kimono makes me feel like some enchanted fairy when I put it on. Beware my friends, kimonos are a powerful thing. To be honest, and don’t tell anyone I told you this, but they make you feel like Superwoman. It’s a like a fashion cape!

I decided to keep this look minimal and moveable with my favorite pair of jeans and a white button up. You can throw a kimono on almost anything, like a dress. I plan on wearing this fashion cape on those bonfire kind of nights with a few of my best friends. (If that ever happens.) And if not, I think it will do just fine cuddled up with me on the couch watching my favorite t.v. shows.
