Daily Outfit: Silk Pleats and Flowers

...so, i finally found some (affordable) floral print denim that i liked!! thanks to H&M, i am able to join Becca in this fun trend.  though i was nervous about the cream background, the color combo of teal, pinks and yellows, made them irresistable!!  it also gave me an excuse to rock more neon but softened by my silk pleated blouse that i love (and hardly get to wear).  i'm so excited!! can't wait to wear these over and over again :) xo sesheta

Daily Outfit: Pearls and Clouds

though usually i live on the edge of sweet and punk, this outfit is pure sweet.  from the colors down to the accessories, i kept this look simple.  the thing i love best about this outfit is that it is a mix of old and new old.   what do i mean by new old? well, my tunic dress was a sweet (pun intended) find at a thrift store so though it's new to me, it is a thrifted item so... technically it's old.  my footless tights have also been around forever too; they were the perfect addition so that i could have subtle coverage and not worry about exposure from my mini-dress.  i finished off the look with my wedges and pearls.  i rarely want to wear pearls but they just seemed right.   i definitely didn't have to miss the edge because the rough surroundings for our photo shoot made a great contrast for my sweet look.  maybe i should have called it pearls and pebbles lol xo sesheta

PFM Styling: Sugarlips Kyoto Japanese Maxi Dress

i feel like Becca and i are officially bloggers now.  why do i say that? well, we have received our first freebie just for doing what we love best - styling clothing and blogging about it!! how cool is that?!?

we'd like to introduce you to the Kyoto Japanese Maxi Dress c/o Sugarlips.  i love this dress!! for me, the best part about this dress is the color combination.  i love the teal and shades of pink in the flowers.  i also love the play on length with the short slip underneath the longer sheath on top.  there are so many ways you can wear this dress but i chose to wear a hot pink bandeau underneath for a pop of color.  then i added some of my fave accessories at the moment - my nude pumps, turquoise studded hoops and bangles galore on my wrist.  i wore my hair in a top knot so that i could show off the full dress as well as keep cool.  though i wore this dress for a day at the office, it would be perfect for a night out on the town.  i can't even count the number of people who told me they loved my dress! it's one thing when you feel like you are looking fresh but when others notice it too, it just sweetens the deal! :) xo sesheta

P.S. the fun part about being a fashion duo is that Becca and i get to share the goodies!  i can't wait to see how she styles it!

Daily Outfit: Neon and Nude

one of my favorite combos is neon and nude.  besides being totally on trend, it is a great way to tone down the shocking hue of any neon item and makes it great for day.  adding my denim vest is a perfect contrast.  i don't think i've posted an outfit with my DIY studded vest yet!!  i haven't had much time to wear it because, in my freezing office, i am forced to wear a long sleeve shirt under it.  i can't wait to wear it to summer outings over tanks and sundresses!  

either way, i love this pairing.  my two favorite parts of this combo are: 1) the #armparty happening with all my bracelets (LOVE) and 2) the exact match of my patent nude flats to my skinny cargos (a happy accident)!  this palette just makes my heart sing!! i guess it's the little things!! :) xo sesheta

p.s. having 4th of July fall on a Wednesday is so awkward!  unfortunately, i couldn't  make use of the mid-week holiday to make a long weekend like i had hoped.  despite that fact, i still plan to have a good time with friends and family.  hope you do the same!!

Daily Outfit: Ombre With a Side of Orange

Sesheta and I love the return of the tie neck blouse...it's so ladylike and classic. This vintage blouse was instant inspiration to my wardrobe. The ombre effect drew me in, and the huge drapey bow sealed the deal! I knew the subtle peachy-coffee tones would be perfect paired with a shot of bright orange and nude pumps. Oooh summer color combo alert! Soft pastels with a pop of color are shaping up to be the season's hottest pair. 

Ombre with a side of orange, please.

Daily Outfit: Love & Lace

Who likes to celebrate love? Well don't all shout at once. I do, I do! I wore this lacy little number to the 40th wedding anniversary party of a very special couple. I feel blessed to be surrounded by family who want to share their happiness with those they love...I also aspire to enjoy at least 40 years of amazing memories and wedded bliss! Haha...3 years under my belt and savoring every minute of it. Speaking of belts (such a smooth segue) I knew this dress needed a little something at the waist. It couldn't have worked out better, not only was this skinny bow belt already in my closet, but I love the combo of purple and teal. Bows, lace, and nude patent leather make for a fun Saturday night in the springtime.

Daily Outfit: Animal Ties

neon nails to add pop

i finally got my hands on a tie neck blouse!!  this is a modern take on the style.  the best part is i found it in H&M for a great price.  i forced myself out of my comfort zone since animal prints are not really my thing but  the soft pink and taupe color scheme made it a little less scary.  this outfit was another effortless choice - a pair of dark straight leg jeans for contrast and the nude accessories to tie it all together.  it's an easy way to look put together and trendy at the same time!  let's hope the obsession is fulfilled lol.
