You know when you get a purse and you're like "omg I love it!...now which outfit do I wear it with?" Yeah, I had one of those moments when I got this super cute Aztec printed cross-body bag. Well I finally figured it out and I made this outfit one loud for sure. As if having a bold print for the purse wasn't enough, I just added a little color. Honestly though, it is just a little, just extremely bright :D My cousin had gotten the scarves but she told me she wouldn't wear them, so I figured I couldn't turn down an opportunity to wear a highlighter colored scarf and just stand out like no tomorrow. And so that's what I did. The long light denim blouse allows for all the mix of colors to somehow fuse into each other. You know how I love to contrast my colors, so I did so by wearing my favorite African flip-flops that has a vibrant blue beading, contrasting the neon orange. You just need to be a little creative and in a "yolo" mood to wear something like this. Also, yes I took all of these pictures with a selfie stick! To my friend that got it for me, thank you again! Hope you guys love the outfit as much as I do and keep posted for Thursday's topic! :)

Okay I'll admit, even sometimes I wear too much floral for me to handle so it's nice to switch it up especially with a classic aztec print. The reason I like this outfit is one because it's really simple to put together and two, it's so comfortable! And omg did anyone notice...I got a new bag! Yes, I finally got a Kate Spade and I fell in love with it! Thank you to my familia for this awesome birthday gift :)))
Well as you can see this outfit is pretty easy to whip up so try it out with a maxi skirt you got! It makes a great outfit for the summer since it gives you a nice breeze but it's also dressy enough for a dinner with friends and family!

Had a disagreement about sharing a photo

When you take one item of clothing and turn it into a whole other piece, that's when it becomes a shape shifter. And if you have a few shape shifters in your closet, then you know you're shopping right. These pants obviously look like palazzo pants, but it's actually just my romper I blogged a while back (when I was in NY I believe)! All I did was look for a solid, preferably chiffon material shirt that was long enough in the back but not so long where it would look awkward on top, and make it look as if I don't know how to wear clothes. If you have romper such as this, where the pants are bell bottoms with an extra flare, then put a top on it and make them into palazzo pants! As for the colors, because it is still summer time despite how close it is coming to an end ( :/ ), I thought of mixing the pastels of a coral peach and chunky mint ring which matches the design of the aztec print. Hope you guys love my shape shifting idea as much as I do! Only a few more summer fun outfits left, so keep posted! :)

Honestly, I owe this outfit to my mom, she made me improvise. So we went shopping because she's leaving on a trip soon to visit her family in Africa and I saw these Aztec printed  loose pants, kind of like jasmine pants but a little more straight. Loved them, asked for them, didn't get them. Reason being - "you already have pants just like that." And she was referring to these very much African style pants that I honestly bought because I was being a foreigner and thought they were cute but never really thought I would actually wear them because they were just "too African"...though, my mom begged to differ. She said I don't wear these pants, but now I don't know how right she is about that. I had an outfit set in mind when I saw the Aztec pants, but since I couldn't get them, I decided why not make an outfit with these, and to be honest, I think it's one of my favorites so far because of how well themed it is yet chic at the same time! Now I think I would actually wear this out because the blazer gives it a modern (or classy) spin that makes it appealing to yours and other people's eyes. Well I hope you guys like this outfit as much as I did! Remember, life's too short to dress boring, so dress it up! :)

This outfit is a classic mix for fall with a forest green cardigan on top of the salmon nude high-low skirt. Yup, that's a skirt, which it makes it all the more better to have in your closet because you can work it with other outfits! Not only are the colors mixing well, but the Aztec scarf (which of course bring all the colors together) along with the studded purse and combats boots add edge yet still has elegance with the cream-white lace shirt under the skirt, and of course the skirt itself! Hope you guys liked this week's outfit! :)

It's Monday, so you know what that means...today's "My Outfits Monday!" :D I hope I'm not the only this excited, because then that would be awkward...
Okay let's start talking about this week's outfit! You may be telling yourself that this outfit looks quite familiar. And it actually is. The striped shirt on top of the maxi is from the first outfit I posted, but this time I changed the patterns that I "blocked" together and changed the style of the purse. I've been quite crazy about aztec print for quite a while and have actually had my eye on this scarf for some time as well; thanks to a friend of mine and her "sixth sense" of just seeing a scarf and knowing I'd like it, I finally got it! And so I thought, hey I'll do this week's outfit with it!
Now in the beginning, I wasn't sure if these two prints would work together because I thought aztec had lines that looked similar to stripes, but really they are more zig-zags, triangles, and diamonds all meshed into a rather different, not so subtle (but not too loud) pattern that mixes great with stripes (I just love stripes, they work with everything). What I love most about this outfit and why I feel it would be appropriate for the summer (and since it's almost over unfortunately) is because it's simple yet has the perfect pop of color with the bright orange bringing the orange of the scarf and the bag together and basically putting the "icing on top of the cake" when it comes to this outfit. I was given this bag as a gift as well and at first I had no idea how I was going to use it, but this scarf is just one of the many things it actually matches with and I feel it's the perfect accessory when you want to go simple yet stand out.

Hope you guys liked this week's outfit! Let me know what you think and feel free to share the idea! :)
Also, comment on what you think about doing cheetah print with Aztec. I'm a little confused and would love for some input:)
