Outfit of the Day: Plissé Set

Okay this set is giving me all the cozy chic vibes. Dress it up dress it down, whatever your heart desires. Honestly, it's just as cozy as a pajama people. How can you go wrong with the comfort of jammies?? You can't. That's how. Thanking the Amazon Gods for this one, because that is exactly where this little number is from. Also, can we talk about the importance of elastic waistbands in our lives. Just me? Okay possibly but I am a serious fan so naturally I'm sharing how to snag for yourself below:

Outfit of the Day: Blazer & Band Tee

Calling today's look business (extra) casual for lack of a better term. Business blazer and casual everything else. That's the vibe. Blazers are having a moment right now. Academia fabrics like tweed and plaid are making a Fall/Winter 2022 comeback in a big way and I'm here for it. 

I love pairing blazers with band t-shirts like this Nirvana one. Leggings are always a go-to and today I am popping on my Dr. Marten platforms to finish off the look with a little edge, which I am always a fan of.

This particular blazer is vintage Ralph Lauren, I picked it up in a local thrift store here in Las Vegas. Similar vintage ones can be found on Etsy h e r e. There are also lots blazers available with a fantastic vintage look at top retailers all over the fashion-verse, now trending. Below I am sharing some of my favorite current blazers with vintage vibes. 

(Also the beanie was part of my Halloween costume that is now being cycled into everyday life lol)

Welcoming Spring Style

 

I'm over here kicking off the changing of the seasons in Spring Style numbers like this one! This Winter has been way too indoorsy AF, making this one of my (yours, everyones) most anticipated Spring seasons to date! Going along with getting out, a few refreshing Spring Style pieces may need to be added to the wishlists and hopefully carts as well:) 

Personally, I have been in sweatpants, leggings, and pajama pants for more consecutive days than I'd like to admit so I am welcoming any flippin' reason to even 1/2 ass glam for even just a moment! Yes folks, that is where we are, and by "we", I mean me and all of my cooped up moods. 

To Spring Style, I say, bring it on! Who is with me?

Here are a few similar pieces:

Thanks for hanging out:) Here are a few more recent looks:

4 Tips On How To Style Flat Lays

Flat lays are an incredible way to showcase your personal style; they are a fun creative outlet and a great way to style yourself! Laying out flat lays is also super helpful for when you're planning what to wear for the week, planning a trip, or with selling items on your closet on Poshmark or similar apps!

Here are some of the tips I use when styling my flat lays:

1) Sunlight. Sunlight, in my opinion, creates some of the very best flat lay images. Utilizing soft morning sun or even bright afternoon sun makes for the most clear flat lay pictures! Place items you're shooting out of the direct light, but make sure to use the light to make the outfit bright enough to see in your photo. Basically, very near but not IN the sunlight.

2) Take A Million Snaps. Take lots of pictures of your flat lay, move things around, reposition items, don't be afraid to switch it up and shoot a lot of pics until you have found the gem image you want to go with! Hover above your items laying them on a blanket on the floor or even on the bed if you are balanced you can use a chair!

3) Add Your Style. Pair things up in your flat lay that you love! Pair your favorite earrings with your favorite sweater and compliment the look with a stellar pair of shoes! Throw in prints with solids and denims, mix textures like faux leather with florals, add the right amount of pieces until your image feels complete!

4) Edit. After I have the image I love, I toss my pic through an app and brighten the exposure. You can actually brighten your photo in your camera roll under 'edit', but I prefer to use an app, my favorite editing apps are A Color Story & Lightroom. Brightening up a photo gives it just a little more pop and zing than pictures with out this touch.

Here are some of my favorite flat lays I've snapped from over the last few years:)
