What I'm Wearing | Ice Blue and Fiery Red

ZARA jacket, borrowed blouse, F21 shorts, H&M boots, necklace thanks to SHOPLATELY
I borrowed this snazzy number from the lovely lady who took my photos (Carina) and can I just say I love the cut and fit of Zara blazers? Constricting as they are, I just love the way they are so snug yet drape nicely. 
To finish off this look, I put on some fire engine red lipstick in complement to my shorts ($15, great buy I must say, Forever 21) and threw on the ubiquitous diamante necklace in a nice cream.

What I'm Wearing | Overalls

 TOPSHOP overalls, ASOS blouse, H&M boots, MAYBELLINE "Fuschia Flash"

 Just a quick outfit post before I head off to class! 

I purchased the T blouse a few months ago but never got around to blogging it. Nevertheless, it's one of my favorite piece in my closet. It's also one of the most colorful garments in my wardrobe (haha).

I let the patterns and hues speak for themselves and paired it with these rad velvet Topshop overalls and plain ankle boots!

What I'm Wearing | Coral & Cobalt

ZARA blazer, F21 blouse, ASOS denim, H&M boots, Lily Wang ring thanks to SHOPLATELY
photos by Carina The contrast of the hot red orange/coral (whatever you'd like to call it) with the cobalt blue is one of my favorite color combinations ever. In fact, you've probably already seen an outfit of mine in a similar palette.  I kept the rest of the outfit simple by using some neutral accessories and minimal jewelry. How cool is my new bolt ring from ShopLately? I'm definitely not a gold jewelry person, but I've been wearing it nonstop for the past week! xx  INSTAGRAM | BLOGLOVIN' | FACEBOOK

What I'm Wearing | Pop of Red

 FOREVER21 moto vest, THRIFTED tee blouse, H&M trousers, NINE WEST heels, URBAN OUTFITTERS bag

I purchased these pants a while ago but never got around to blogging them (as with the case of a lot of cool pieces in my closet, unfortunately), so here they are!

They are about 3 sizes too big but I like the loose, oversize fit of them! Plus, they were on sale for $15 :)

I decided to go for a monochrome look and punctuate it with some pops of red on the lips (revlon) and with a cool bag lent by Heather!

I also collaborated with Juicy Couture and styled their iconic velour tracksuit hoodie for College Fashionista (you can see a bit of it in the last pic); I'll post a link when it goes live!

What I'm Wearing | Prep School

MOM'S coat, H&M men's varsity jacket, MOM'S button up, JOE FRESH trousers, BCBG wedges, GLINT&GLEAM satchel thanks to SHOPLATELY I am so sorry about the outfit delays! If you've been reading my blog for the past month, you'll know that I've devotedly kept up with fashion week like a good blogger (you can see my ongoing coverage HERE)...except for the fact that I haven't posted any outfits of mine! A few of my inexcusable excuses? The weather ( although layering should make outfits more interesting, right?), because I am still a Californian and will always have difficulty combating the cold. Another reason is just no time (also inexcusable...I mean I've been keeping up with fashion week). So please excuse my indecencies and enjoy this post and these fabulous $9 pants! :) Slowly but surely, I am learning how to layer like a New Yorker. Half of my closet is composed of outerwear pieces, be it blazers, jackets, or coats. Ironically, I am always drawn to purchasing those pieces whenever I shop in store or online browse. Guilty as charged; I can't overlook a great outerwear piece. I've probably posted this coat before, but it's really one of my favorite pieces in my closet. Boxy and curvy all at the same time, it's like a pared down version of a CDG runway piece. I wear the heck out of it and it keeps me warm! Win-win. Also, this mocha satchel is a great new piece that serves all my school and sartorial needs! (now to find a black one of comparable worth...) keep posted for more runway coverage of Milan and the upcoming Paris shows! xx  INSTAGRAM | BLOGLOVIN' | FACEBOOK
