☯ I'd sell my soul for these soles ☯

☯ I'd sell my soul for these soles ☯



Christian Louboutin pointy-toe pumps / High heels / Flower print shoes / Tan booties / Short heel shoes / Stretch boots

Who needs a boyfriend when you have shoes? Not me, obviously. Quite recently I've been taking to browsing online, debating what my next pair would be, and these are my choice for kicks that would kick off any outfit.

Starting from the top of the pyramid:

Dr.Martens "Roma" High heeled Loafer-  As you can see from the shoes I chose, I'm trying to branch out into heels, and I think these are adorable. They're the perfect finishing touch for vintage-y dresses, which is exactly how I intend to style them, if I'm lucky enough to get my hands on these beauties.


Nita Velvet Oxford - Starstruck- Now, three trends I can never resist are oxblood, velvet and oxfords, and these shoes just happened to be all three of those things, wrapped up in one adorable little star-covered package. I think these would look amazing with high waisted skinnies, minimal makeup  and a relaxed t-shirt for just an effortlessly cool look.



Max Oxford in White Floral- I feel like these are the type of shoes a princess would wear on her day off. Not gonna lie, I would probably prostitute myself for them. While the rather vintage oxford style along with bright florals may not be everyone's style, I think they're perfect for spring and summer (and winter and fall to brighten up the dreary weather)..


Badlands Ankle Boot in Wine - I don't know what my obsession is with having shoes that much my hair color, but in the words of the great Wendy "whateva". These have a totally 70's vibe, they're just screaming to be worn with disco pants and a crop top. Or a tied maxi skirt and tank. Either works.

Christian Louboutin Pointy Toe Pumps - These are both the classy-est and the most expensive of my shoe choices. Personally I think these are the ideal pair of black heels, simple and well constructed. The red sole adds just the right amount of flair to make a statement without being too over-the-top.


Alla Buckled Bootie - These are the most bitching pair of shoes ever. I love the chunky heel, which provides height without being hard to walk in and is just oh-so 90s. I think the gold hardware and cutouts make you look so bad ass that you could walk around in the girly-est outfit ever, but if you wore these shoes people would respect you.


Everly Cutout Boot - Tan Perforated- Ankle boots are a great staple shoe to have. They look adorable with jeans, but can also be fancies up with a dress or transitioned into summer by pairing them with shorts. I think these are a great twist on the classic item. The cutouts and perforations make them perfect for when you are wearing them for summer, but also allow you to great creative with socks in the colder seasons! I am in love.


                                                                                Happy Spring Break to all!,

Outfit of The Day: Denim on Denim

                 

The wind made my baby hair go cray- cray 
 Vintage Levi's jacket/ American Apparel Top/American Apparel Jeans/Jeffrey Campbell "Everly" boot

Hola my lovely readers. Clearly, today I woke up and had the urge to wear everything denim (minus the shoes). Today in NYC it felt warm for the first time in a long time. Jess and I totally took advantage of this beautiful spring break weather and walked around our beautiful city. We danced around the streets, acted like teenagers and didn't have a care in the world. We finally got some well deserved R and R (rest and recreation) from our busy school life and finally got a chance to hang out for the whole day.
 I rocked three different washes of denim and I loved it. I've always loved the idea of denim on denim and it's making a huge comeback from the disastrous denim on denim duo from Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. Well, it's time for me to start some of my spring break homework. What's the point in having a break if it's not truly a break? 
You guys have to wait and see what I will wear next, so check us out daily!!!

Fashion Icons: Bethany Cosentino




Alrighy everyone! It's time for a new feature on the blog! We will now be doing posts dedicated to our style icon. And my first is none other than the beautiful Bethany Cosentino. You may know her from one of my favorite bands, Best Coast. Aw man she is just too cool. Her style is almost like modern 90s.(A.K.A. the best decade) And it just screams California. I love it. Not to mention she and her boyfriend, Nathan Williams (of Wavves), are one of my favorite couples.

As you may know she somewhat recently did a collaboration with Urban Outfitters. It was totally rad. I'm so sad it's over.

My (Wendy) Spring/Summer Picks: Dresses!

Photos courtesy of Nastygal, litboutique, Wasteland, and RevolveClothing
 Mother Nature was kinda late in giving New York City a snow storm, like a month late. And I'm here on my laptop telling you guys about my spring/summer dress picks. Like what Jess said or rather wrote on her previous blog post, spring is just around the corner, and I thought it was appropriate to share my personal picks for the upcoming season and give you guys some  inspiration for your next shopping expedition. So going in order of the pictures here are my picks.
  
Shakuhachi's New Romantics Dress: First off I think this dress is perfect for Coachella. The model in the picture is working it. There are so many things I love about this dress. The daisy and circular embroidery adds a cool relaxed hipster vibe that is juxtaposed with the hard, but subtle cutouts that adds a fun and flirty look to the whole outfit. It's the perfect length and shows enough skin that doesn't seem like you're trying to hard. Just like the model I would wear my hair down and attempt to make it wavy just like her or maybe even better. As for shoes a simple sandal or ankle booties would definitely work. 

Cheap Monday's Collen Chambray Shirt: This dress/shirt screams too cool for summer school. I also love how the model is wearing the dress. It's so street-chic without really trying too hard. I can imagine a girl wearing this dress walking down the busy streets of New York City, drinking her ice coffee without a care in the world.

Finders Keeper's Moon Dance Long Sleeve Tunic: Ever since Givenchy presented colorful and bold prints down the Paris Runway I've been trying to incorporate prints into my wardrobe. I love the cool color palette that Finders Keepers used. It's perfect for those summer sunset walks down the California beach that Jess and I dream about.

Motel's Medusa Dress: I would say that this dress is the fanciest out of the bunch, but you can dress it down. Put a denim button down and you are out the door. I just love the silhouette and the small detailing with the studs around the waist area. The silhouette of this dress makes you seem slimmer. (But don't worry you don't need that because you are perfect)

Finders Keeper's You Sent Me T-Shirt Dress: And yet again another Finders Keepers dress. I love this brand. They design and produce clothes that are fit and form fitting and lose and relax. Same with the first Finders Keepers dress, you can wear this dress practically wherever and do whatever. Both of the Finders Keepers dresses are easy to style. You can pair them off with a simple heel or ankle booties and be out the door and the world is ready for you!!

So those are my dress picks for the upcoming beautiful spring/summer season. I have a good feeling that this one is going to be a good one!

Jess's spring wishlist♡♡♡♡♡♡


Okay so today is March 1st, which means Spring is just around the corner(to me at least), and that means it's a perfect time for a Spring Wish list! Without further ado, my wish list.

American Apparel Nail Polish: The American Apparel Coney Island colored nail polish is such a dream color. Personally, I think that some cute nail art completes an outfit. I'll be sure to do a nail tutorial real soon.

Starbucks Iced Chai: I know that this isn't a piece of clothing or anything but I simply cannot wait until I get to sip an Iced Chai from Starbucks while walking down the street in a cute summer dress and sunnies with the wind blowing softly through my hair. Ah I can picture it now... and I need to stop because I'm getting myself excited and I'll go into shock when I actually step outside.

Floral Crown: A.K.A. the ultimate spring accessory. I'm sure you've been spotting floral crowns popping all over. It's an unexpected way to really spice up an outfit. Definitely going to be a huge trend for Spring/Summer. We're working making some floral crowns ourselves, might I add, so be sure to keep an eye out for that.

American Apparel Circle Skirt What can I say? This skirt just screams Spring time lovin'! Just imagine how cute it would be with practically any crop top/tank top you can think of.

Deena & Ozzy Snap Clutch From Urban Outfitters: I love love love this color. It's so mellow but at the same time it could totally transform an outfit. Plus you could use it year round, why restrict this gorgeous bag to only Spring?

Daytripped Panama Sunglasses From Urban Outfitters: As you may have noticed I'm just a little obsessed with sunglasses. Okay... very obsessed with sunglasses. These sunnies are next on my list. Of course, I would also love some Marc Jacobs or some Tom Fords but seeing as I wanted this wishlist to be realistic, unfortunately I'm probably not going to be getting designer sunglasses any time soon. Anyway, these sunglasses are just beautiful and I can't wait to scoot on over to Urban and buy them for the low low price of just $16! weeeeeeeee

Diament Jewelry For Urban Outfitters Earrings: Don't get me wrong, I love hoop earrings and everything but I prefer studs. I especially love mixing and matching studs and these are just perfect. Plus, they're on sale for 10 bucks! 

Free People Knee SocksOne of my all time favorite movies is Clueless and I obviously draw a lot of inspiration from it. Needless to say, I'm in love with knee socks and thigh highs and Free People just so happen to make beautifully soft ones. 

Supergas: I love these sneakers. They're so classic. One of my favorite style icons is Alexa Chung and she wears these constantly. They're perfect for adding some cool to any outfit.

Cosmic Dream Dress From Nasty Gal: Last but not least is this lovely dress. I guess you could say it was love at first sight. When I said a cute summer dress before^ this dress fits the card. Oh lordy... forget Spring, I want Summer.
