3 Outfits in One: Dinner to the Movies to the Couch

Posted on January 9, 2015 by karissaestrada

You’re a busy girl. You’ve got a lot of places to be. You have no time to run back home and change every single time you have somewhere to go. Here’s a quick and easy how to guide on wearing one outfit, three different ways.

Step One: Create a simple color scheme that will be easier for you to transition from outfit to outfit.

Step Two: Choose a lightweight flow-y dress; one that is easy to layer.

Step Three: Pick a layer-able sweater top that is easy to knot to add some dimension and color to your already awesome dress. If you’re going to the movies, don’t miss this step because movie theaters can get real chilly.

Step Four: (If it’s not a winter wonderland where you live, you can skip this step.) Add some sexy to your outfit and rock some leather/pleather/faux leather WHATEVER to your outfit and you are good to go!

Bonus: Bring your converse along for the ride. No one likes hurt footsies from those high heels.

I’ll walk you through my kind of Friday night. I typically have a nice dinner with my boyfriend, we take a trip to the movies, and then end the night with some good ole couch time on our laptops while watching Breaking Bad.

My Outfit: I went with a light moss colored sweater top, a minted blue and pink dotted baby doll dress and to add a bit of sexiness, I chose some leather leggings to top it all off. It’s a simple color selection but it will get the job done.

Menswear Inspired

Posted on January 7, 2015 by karissaestrada

You guys know I’m all about how an outfit makes you feel. This outfit made me feel amazing. There’s something about the boxy silhouette, stripes, boots, hair pulled back, and overall simplicity that made me feel so menswear-y. (I’m so good with words, aren’t I?) This clean cut look is a definite break from the norm but I loved every second of it. I’m not an outfit repeater but this one is a total exception. I find it satisfying when I style a timeless outfit. Outfits come and go, my passion towards certain trends fade, but once in a while I stumble across a exceptional outfit and that’s such a great feeling. It may be simple but sometimes that’s all a girl really needs. My obsession over boyfriend shaped blazers has gotten a little bit out of hand. I really can’t stop myself from buying one in every single color. They are so much fun and they can really make any ensemble more masculine… but in a tasteful kind of way of course.

That’s all for now folks…talk to you soon.

Xoxo,

Little Blue Dress

Posted on January 5, 2015 by karissaestrada

Forget the little black dress. Let’s switch things up just a little bit. This shift silhouette is all the rage right now. I have a bunch in my closet for those days when I don’t feel like putting in much effort and when I want my outfit to do all the talking. The boiled wool material makes the outfit a little more cozier and winter appropriate. This little ensemble is acceptable for work functions, girls night, and even date night. I went for a more “everyday” look (everyday for me) by pairing it with a striped turtleneck and statement fox printed tights. Don’t be the girl in the little back dress. Be the one that takes it to a different level with a pretty cobalt blue/green dress. It’s okay to be the oddball sometimes. I prefer it actually. ODDBALLS UNITE!
