Grunge Girl

High Leather boots, Full Rayon Dresses, and a summer evening in the Park is how Ive been spending my Friday nights. 

Theres an air of romance to 80s and 90s Nostalgia. 

When alternative rock music ruled the scene, and history saw the last of truly great rock music. 

Gone are the days of Grunge, but not from my wardrobe… 

I have a closet packed with so many Vintage 90s Grunge dresses! Its insane! 

There are so many different styles, colors and prints of 90s Grunge!!!

 This maxi dress from Shabbybabe is my latest find! 

Its Hunter green with a cream windowpane print. 

Its a coverall style that buttons down the front and has a loose fit. Its so cute!

 With these grunge dresses I always throw on a pair of knee high leather boots. 

The boots I'm wearing here are by Jeffrey Campbell for Free People.

 I wear these Jeffrey Campbell leather boots with everything!!! 

Another great styling tip for the coverall grunge dresses is to wear a soft camisole underneath. 

It gives the dresses a modern feel and I always unbutton the front buttons up to the thigh. 

That's how I take 90s Grunge dresses into the year 2015.

Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves

I have a passion for traveling!! I'm always traveling a few times a year like a bohemian gypsy!!!

 I happen to work right by this little turn of the century train station, and it inspired to put a gypsy look together.  

I bought this gorgeous black lace maxi skirt from Free People last year. 

I love it!! Its so Gothic and is a beautiful maxi skirt to wear from day to night. 

Its designed as a handkerchief skirt.

 I put 2 Vintage leather concho belts from shabbybabe with it. 

I have such a huge collection of these concho belts! 

They go with denim, leather, rayon dresses etc,etc. 

The peasant top is also from shabbybabe.

 It has gorgeous lacing that goes down the front. 

Whenever I put this boho peasant blouse on I feel like the ultimate prairie girl! 

Our clothes always need some very cool boho accessories. 

I just bought a few bohemian necklaces from Child of Wild. 

Child of Wild is one of my favorite places to buy 

tribal Jewelry and Bohemian Jewelry, check them out! 

That's where I picked up the tribal choker I'm wearing. 

The boho rings and bracelets are  all vintage jewelry pieces. 

A great pair of shoes always makes the outfit.

 To finish this look I wore another great pair 

of boho leather boots from Jeffrey Campbell that I bought at Free people.  

These leather boots are awesome! Their so comfy and look great!

 I'm so excited to show you more of my Bohemian closet this week! 

I have so much more looks to write about!

Gypsy Pirate

If your like me and you LOVE the beach, 

your probably always in search of different bikini coverups.

 I feel like one of the greatest challenges of having a perfect beach wardrobe,

 is finding cute and high style bikini coverups to throw on over your bikini. 

I get so tired of the mainstream mass market styles. 

When I go to the beach I want to look like a gypsy! Lol

I found this awesome tunic top/ vintage mini dress from shabbybabe

Its has a crochet top with small mirrored accents. 

The vintage tunic flares out and has a shredded texture.

 I love it!! Its like something a gypsy pirate would wear on the shore haha. 

This shade of green goes great with a long coral colored boho necklace,
which I took out of my vintage jewelry collection

Its a great outfit for strolling the beach barefoot on a sunset evening.

Free Bird

The best part about dressing for the beach are those gorgeous bikini cover ups we get to wear and of course showing a little skin!… 

Since summers so short I make sure to visit the beach every week. 

Instead of going for the traditional bikini coverups I went for this sheer rayon boho tunic top from Shabbybabe. 

It has slits on each side that drape beautifully when it gets a little windy on the beach. 

The tunic also has embroidery and small mirrored embellishments to add a little glam. 

Since its also in a neutral color it matches pretty much any color swimsuit. 

I paired it with a bikini form Victorias Secret, and a few belts from Shabbybabe. 

The boho jewelry is from my personal Collection. 

Have fun this summer and get to the beach while you can! 

Into the Wild

I took a drive into the wilderness of NJ a week ago, and revisited one of my most 

favorite places to visit Stevens Park. 

Theres tons of trails,rivers,waterfalls, and wildlife beauty here!  I couldn't wait 

to shoot a few pictures in some of my favorite separates. I love the animal print 

design scheme on this maxi skirt and chain belt from shabbybabe.com.

 Its perfect to wear from day to night. 

It goes great with this basic lace crop top from Forever 21, a

nd these Jeffrey Campbell boots are so awesome!! 

They make me feel like a  Fairy Nymph.
