Lace Dress x Fall Clutch

This past weekend I spent a gorgeous fall day playing dress up while my husband snapped away with our camera. Not only is my hubs an artist behind the lens but he’s got an eye for color pairings and a thirst for adventure. Lately we have been hunting down places to shoot because let’s face it: It gets boring looking at the same old backdrops over and over again, and I must admit: I love wall art and/or colored walls. They are the perfect backdrop to make images pop!

Anyhow, today I’m featuring a new favorite color of mine: Blush. It is such a warm and fun color, don’t you agree? I ordered this dress from OASAP because of its amazing color. Wait…You don’t feel comfortable wearing it because you think it’s too girly?! Or maybe you love the color but don’t like to wear it near your face if it doesn’t complement your skin tone? If either is the case, consider incorporating the color into your wardrobe through dresses, skirts or pants. Lose the excuse that you’re not young enough, confident enough, or too “creatively challenged” to wear this lovely color. It can be as cool or as classic as you style it. Make it work for YOU!

And before I forget:

Heads Up: The Turban Trend is Back!

Happy Friday, dolls! I am so excited to share a DIY project with you today! I teamed up with MJ Trimming to introduce to you some of their amazing DIY projects, and first off is the Baroque turban. And yes, mark my words: Turbans are back! You mean you didn’t know they were ever a thing? Well, let me tell you that this trend really hit the stage ever since celebrities started wearing them back in 2012 (right when the boho trend took over!), and now they are back! It is the hottest, statement-worthy accessory to try! It is by far the chicest fall accessory that will accentuate your hair and face with a little bit of shimmer! Head on over to MJ Trimming to get yours today!

As always, thanks so much for reading & have a wonderful weekend!

Black & White

There’s something about a black & white ensemble, don’t you agree?! It is such a simple look yet gives it an immense amount of edge. I’ve been wearing a lot of color recently, so I wanted to mix things up by going with a more monochrome look today. I received this vest from a dear friend of mine, and as you probably know, I don’t have much patience for not wearing new items! One of my favorite things about this look is how the simplicity of colors juxtaposes with the backdrop color (literally found this wall by accident while strolling around downtown!).

As always, thank you for stopping by & a BIG THANK to Rachel for this amazing vest!

More Humanity, Less Cruelty

Today’s post is very special to my heart because I am talking about a topic that is very prevalent today: Bullying. Growing up, I was victim of bullying too. I was always different. I grew up in Germany, born to a German father and a Filipino mother. I always had big dreams and worked really hard to achieve my goals.

I was bullied for being a ‘nerd’ at school. Yes, I was the one with the glasses, and the amazing grades in school. Girls were especially mean to me. It even went so far – that at one point – they organized a “hate group” against me. While they did the ‘cool’ stuff, like smoking and drinking alcohol (things I never did), well…, I would prefer staying home, read my novels and be with my family. But I was being bullied for that. Their words and actions HURT me so much but it only made me stronger today. When Vaiana, founder of Le Motto reached out to me, and as I got to know her story, well, it simply brought me back to my own roots. All these nasty words and comments I received hurt immensely which only proves what impact words can have on someone’s life.

Today though is all about spreading P O S I T I V I T Y and L O V E which is what Le Motto’s main purpose is. Sharing a good message to the world, to encourage, and lift one another up. Vaiana says, that “words must be followed by actions”, and I could not agree with her more. Change the world, one WORD at a time. Please, use the discount code ‘whatwouldvwear’ (20% OFF) at checkout on the Le Motto’s website, and help spread the word to end bullying. Also, when you purchase Le Motto apparel, some of their profits actually go to those kids who are suffering from violent circumstances. Their focus is to help fund programs that confront aggression in the form of bullying helping “The Bully Project” that educate over 1 million parents, teachers, kids and entire communities to deal with bullying.

As always, thank you for stopping by & don’t forget to spread some love today!

THANK YOU to LeMotto for sponsoring this post.
