Blu

Weekends spent strolling around in Williamsburg, Brooklyn calls for the perfect blend between a simplistic hipster and a sporty vibe.

Top- Forever 21

Vest- Nasty Gal

Hat-Zara

Bracelet- Vintage

As I've mentioned a few times before here on the blog, my favourite place to hang out on the weekends during my free time is in Williamsburg. Mainly because the vibe there is so chill and there's always a small interesting new spots to explore. On days like these, I personally like to dress as comfortable as possible…which means, the perfect pair of oxfords and clothing pieces that are slightly loose fitting but gives enough room for comfort while still being clean and polished. 

I chose to wear this vintage inspired lace top that pretty much looked like was specifically dyed to have this very rustic colour to it. However, that's what I love so much about it plus the addition of the lace gives it such a great detailed touch. I could have thought of so many ways to style this top but, I chose to pair it with an almost plaid abstract looking short and this awesome baby blue vest. I'm so in love with the "biker" quality of this vest, that it has already become a staple piece in my closest for the Fall and could definitely be styled is so many different ways. 

I really wanted to tie in the burgundy color of my oxfords into this look hence, I chose to wear this panama hat that I've neglected for so many month. I think it made for a great addition to the look because of the ribbon colours that were wrapped in the silver chain…yea yea I know that seems like a very small detail however, I feel like sometimes its the small details that can certainly help make or break an overall look.

Somewhere Between Psychotic and Iconic

Blouse- Uniqlo (similar)

Black and White Floral Skirt- Forever 21

Shoes- Oxfords

Body Chain- Similar

Rings- Vintage

I've been taking a much need break from being in front of camera, just to figure out somethings regarding my career, school and lifestyle. However, I thought it was about time I posted this look I wore about three weeks ago before going to the Brooklyn flea market on Saturday afternoon. If you never knew this about me before, I'll be the first to tell you that I love vintage shopping whether it be at a flea market or from thrift store. Just the idea of purchasing an item that has become exclusive and unique to its buyer is such an awesome concept to me…I'll try to snap a collection of pictures whenever I get go to thrifting again.

I wore a black button up collared blouse that I snatched from Uniqlo (the cotton is to die for soft!), what's strange is that I almost never shop for anything in Uniqlo mainly because it's not quite my aesthetic. However, I went in there with a friend and came out with this blouse. As per usual, I tucked the blouse into a floral mini skirt, for a bit of a preppy attire. Since the black of the blouse was a tad bit flat photographic wise, I chose to wear my favorite body chain for depth and more interest in what could easily be a plain outfit.

I finally back with a new post and I couldn't be more happy to share this graphic black and white ensemble to kick off the week. In the early stages of blogging, I'd always wear graphic and band tees…I still do but not as much as I would at one point. What intrigues me with this top is the marble effect where the white details are printed, which somehow reminds me of lightning. 

I paired the top but tucking it into one of my favorite pair of shorts right now. Though the shorts is pretty much a classic black shorts, the touch of lace around the hemline really brings something interesting  to the look and is perfection to me since I've been so obsessed with lace all summer long.

For me, adding that touch of color through my accessories help to elevate the look a little without overpowering the beauty of the top. Just a quick update with me, I recently started a new internship so I've been super busy fitting in "fun time" in my schedule but I'm making it work as best as I can…I've been doing a lot of exploring in Brooklyn and have been documenting it so I'll be sure to post those photos here on my blog very soon. Hope you all have a lovely week!

Fly Like A Bird, Take To The Sky

Crochet Top- Similar

Silk Shorts- Necessary Clothing

The good thing about Summer is that I can wear very light layers and still feel at a normal temperature on a super hot day. This is a look I wore earlier on this week right before heading on into the city for a photoshoot. I really was aiming for comfort, loose layers and a feminine approach to Spring/Summer season. I know I've been posting a lot of lace pieces lately on the blog, but I honestly cant quite help myself...and I think all Summer long I'll be sporting a lot of lace. However, in this post I'm wearing this beautiful hand crochet top that I scored while walking pass Canal street here in New York. It caught me by surprize because I've never bought anything in Canal street because a lot of what's down there are fake products which I as a designer will never support. But in this instants, I saw a lot of crochet pieces in this one store and it caught my attention as far as me ended up buying it.

I could really see myself pairing this top with many things this summer but for this look, I went for a bit of a casual boho chic where I tucked in the top into this beautiful silk shorts and my oxfords which I haven't been wearing for awhile. I also switched things up a bit by wearing my currently favourite bag that can literally be worn with anything...its perfection.

Top Summer Shoe Picks

Here on my blog I'm usually seen in very grungy 6" platform boots or just a chunky black platform boots. I count the amount of times my friends have told me that have way too many black shoes but that's just a habit I'm trying to prey myself out of slowly but surely. So since I'm constantly experimenting with my style and trying new things I thought it would be nice for me to put together a collection of top summer shoe picks that I'd definitely want to be wearing this summer and also shoes that you readers could also fall inlove with! Let's get started!!

Ankle boots have literally been my number one choice in shoes since forever. For me, they're very comfy, not too girly and easy to get around in since I'm always on my feet. I'll for sure be wearing lots of ankle boots this summer with different cute styles and colors.

Shoe: 1.  Notched Edges Caliga with Flat-top Spikes, 2. Almond Toe Boots with Cut Square Heel (found in two colours), 3. Patent Leather Almond Toe Oxfords, 4. Black and White Patent Leather Oxfords

The famous strappy sandal very gets old. They pair well with pretty much anything but this summer I'll be rocking this with a nice light washed ankle length denim jeans or even with nicely tailored black trouser. Either way, these type of shoes will always come in handy both for daytime and for a night out.

5. Pointy Toe Slingback Sandal, 6. Square Peep Top Flat Sandal with Metallic Hue, 7. Leather Strappy Scandals with Chunky Heels , 8. Pointy Toe Stiletto Heel Sandals, 9. Pointy Toe Slingback Stiletto Heel

A very long time ago way before I started to wear chunky platform boot, ballet flats were my everything. I remember having only ballet flats in my wardrobe at one point because they were so flat and comfy. However, as I grew older I started to hate them and they didn't seem so comfortable afterwards so i stopped wearing them. Funny enough just very recently, like two weeks ago I bought a pair from Nasty Gal's shoe cult collection and ever since I got them, they've been stuck on my feet. So maybe I'll incorporate them into my style more this summer.

10. Hollow Out Pointy Toe (in shiny black), 11.Pointy Toe Flats with Side Zipper (comes in several colors), 12. Hollow Out Pointy Toe (pink) 13.Round Toe Low-cut Ballet Flats with Lace details

All the shoes shown in this post can be found on Dresssale.com. They're a great online store that really affordable and sells a wide variety of everything! so definitely go check them out.
