Romper Under $25 #2 (Target Series)

Posted on June 13, 2016 by karissaestrada

Hello fashion friends! We are back at it again with my favorite affordable rompers in collaboration with Target. I wanted to show you that you can have a great summer wardrobe with fun texture and pattern for less. Today’s style is inspired by the bohemian girl in all of us. The fringe, fedora and floral print says it all, not to mention the statement boots. As far as comfort goes, this romper takes the cake. It feels like pajamas in the best way and the coolest part about it is that you can throw this on and get out in there in sunshine, no hassle! What’s not to love about that.

Target, you’ve done it again.

With Love,

Romper Under $25 #1 (Target Series)

Posted on June 12, 2016 by karissaestrada

Hey Guys! Today I’m kicking off a new series featuring rompers that are just under $25. I’ve teamed up with Target to bring you some great summer buys that you need in your wardrobe right this minute. I wanted to start this series off with my personal favorite embroidered crochet romper. I feel like I belong at a music festival in this outfit. Anyone have any concert tickets? You can obviously wear this romper by itself but I wanted to share with you how to style it to it’s maximum capacity. I wore a trendy handkerchief around my neck, cinched the romper with a belt and tied the look together with my timeless combat boots.

I’m so excited about this Target series of three. I hope to give you more affordable clothing options in the future. You don’t need to spend a fortune to feel good and look good. Am I right?

Oh Target, you’ve never done wrong.

With Love,

Sunflower Summer

Posted on June 9, 2016 by karissaestrada

It hit me just the other day that it’s officially Summer. This whole time I thought we were still in Spring, my second favorite season of the year but summer, oh summer takes the cake. I was born in the summer heat so there’s something about this time of the year that makes me happier than normal. This could also be the extra Vitamin D intake but you get the point. What I love the most about summer is not just fact that the days are little longer or that there’s so much more room for activities but that everything seems possible. You can be anyone you want, you can do anything you want. It feels like freedom doesn’t it? This time of the year is seriously the best. I love a little sunflower too. Sunflowers are on my Top 5 favorite flowers list. My home has flowers in every room because that’s what summer does to you.

Summer also makes you want to buy every maxi dress in the entire universe because why not. They provide so much comfort that you just want everyone to know what it feels like to put on a maxi dress and walk around feeling absolutely amazing. This maxi dress in particular was a hard one to catch. Within just a couple of days, this dress sold out in every size company wide. I placed a backorder order and it arrived TWO months later. Two months! I’ve been impatiently waiting for this beauty, this layered cream beauty to come into the mail. I absolutely love it for any occasion. It’s very easy to wear in a casual setting as well as a dressy one.

Okay, I’ve done a lot of talking. See you guys next time.

Perfectly Victorian

Posted on June 2, 2016 by karissaestrada

Perfectly perfect in every way. This effortlessly shaped dress is the definition of perfection. This dress, embroidered with a hint of crochet trim, reminds me of a dress that I had when I was a little girl. My great grandma made it for me from scratch and I wore it proud on my 5th birthday. It’s amazing to me what a simple stitch or silhouette does to your senses. I feel calm, beautiful and powerful in a stunning dress like this one. Especially when it reminds me of my childhood and how far I’ve come.

Hold on tight to the things that bring out the inner child in you.

Shapeless dresses have and always been my kind of thing. The more maternity looking, the better. There’s such a stigma if what you’re wearing is “too flow-y” or “like a tent.” Women automatically think that they look pregnant. I don’t know about you but when I see someone in a gorgeous swing dress, I’m not thinking maternity, I’m thinking DAMN GIRL! WERK! The more flow-y the better in my book. I strive for comfort more than anything and a dress like this provides that and so much more.

Be confident: Wear a babydoll dress.

Yankee Girl

Posted on May 29, 2016 by karissaestrada

Our Yankees VS. Rockies tickets are purchased and ready to enjoy. We are anxiously waiting for June 14th to arrive because we absolutely love baseball but more importantly, LOVE the Yankees. I’ll admit, I only enjoy socializing at baseball games and eating the overly greasy foods than actually watching the game but whatever, I’m still a Yankee girl. The last time we watched The Yankees we were in NYC for my birthday, nearly 10 months ago. We can’t wait! I plan on rocking this vintage style baseball hat along with something minimal for the game, pretty similar to this outfit post. I always have to bring along my trusty converse of course because we like to walk around the stadium beforehand and pre-game a little if you know what I mean. I don’t typically wear baseball hats because I’ve always told myself that I look hideous in them. I thought that about lipstick once upon a time but then I gave it a try and look at me now. I can’t live without it. That’s the thing about finding your personal style, you have to TRY new things. I took a risk and purchased this hat and now I’m hooked. I’ll be rocking them all summer long.
