Outfit details: Top: Marshalls (similar); Jacket: Luella for Target; Shorts: gifted Fox House; Bag: London Fog from Ross; Wedges: Matty’s at DSW.

Mixing dainty prints together has been one of my favorite things when styling my outfits.  I love these feminine floral shorts from Fox House, they are so comfy, flowy and have a skirt silhouette.  This sheer bird print tank top is perfect! I found it at Marshalls for only $9.99 and the pastel colors with the delicate print goes very well with my floral shorts.  I then decided to add another layer with this Luella for Target suede jacket that has scallop details and a gorgeous pink shade that ties the whole look together!

I hope you all had a great weekend!  Mine was definitely way more relaxing than the last weekend, I was able to relax with my boyfriend and pup and do errands that I’ve been meaning to get to! :P

Hi everyone!

I’m excited to announce a very special project I’ve been working on!  I recently partnered with Verve Management, an internet & social media marketing firm that specializes in the entertainment industry, to create a new VIDEO series for their online magazine Verve Social Magazine!  The fashion video series, “Fashion Fridays”, will showcase different ways to wear the season’s hottest trends, styling tips on everyday wear, and street style!  I’m the host of this fashion video series and I’m so proud of our first video!

Please take a look at my first Fashion Fridays video, showing you how you can easily incorporate NEON into your everyday wardrobe! Thank you so much Ryan and Monica for making such an amazing video!

Outfit details: Printed jeans: c/o INSIGHT51; Embellished top: c/o No Rest for Bridget; Pumps: Steve Madden; Jewelry: Forever 21 & thrifted.

How was everyone’s weekend?? Mine was pretty eventful!  I watched Kevin Hart with friends on Friday (he’s so freakin hilarious if you get a chance to watch him live it’s a MUST!), and my boyfriend graduated from UCSD (my college also) yesterday!! His family traveled here from the Bay Area for the graduation and it was a great day with family and friends.  ALSO, Happy Father’s Day to my crazy, funny, & loving dad! Sucks I couldn’t see him since they all live in the Bay Area, but I’ll get to see him soon.

Today’s outfit is highlighting one of my favorite trends, PASTELS! These beanpole art jeans from Insight51 have such an amazing print for Summer.  The colors all work together and I decided to play up the pastels with an asymmetrical embellished top! I love how the colors flow nicely and I finished it off with chunky pumps and arm candy. :)

I hope everyone has a great day! Thank you so much for reading!

PHEW, today is finally Friday and I couldn’t be happier!  This week was filled with work, projects, and meetings, I’m exhausted BUT so grateful for all the opportunities that I received. :) Yesterday was such an exciting day for me, I was asked to style all the mannequins at Nordstrom Rack!! I’ll definitely elaborate on my crazy amazing experience this weekend, so stay tuned. If you’re in town, stop by the Nordstrom Rack in Mission Valley to see the mannequins!

Today’s outfit highlights my love of color blocking. I love this neon pink dress from Lovers + Friends, the lightweight chiffon material is a perfect dress to just throw on and hang out outdoors with friends!  It was pretty windy that day so it was fun too see how much the dress moves with the wind.  I paired it with this fitted green blazer that I scored at a thrift store for only $3!! Can you believe it?! The pastel statement necklace was one of my great finds at the local Therapie Boutique, a boutique on wheels!  It complemented the dress and green blazer and it felt like the perfect touch to a color-filled look.

Hope everyone has a great weekend! I’m going to watch Kevin Hart tonight with friends! And my boyfriend is graduating from UCSD this Sunday! Fun filled weekend I can’t wait :)

Happy Monday!! :) I hope you all had a great weekend.  My weekend was filled with meetings on Saturday, and I worked on an amazing photo AND video shoot for my blog yesterday!  I can’t wait to share with you my latest projects that I’ve been working on.  Stay tuned. ;)

Today I’m totally loving the colorblocking trend still, but I love doing pastel colorblocking for Summer!  This gorgeous purple & orange colorblock cardigan from TheShopPR has insane back details which really make a statement.  I complemented the colors with floral printed shorts in pastel prints and a pastel blue clutch to add more flair!  I love this top from Marshalls, the neutral colors make it very wearable and I love the waterfall chiffon details on the front and back! And for $12.99, who can’t pass it up!? ;)

Thank you so much for reading! :)
