Wanderlust

I love to travel!!
 Traveling takes the cake as my $$ spending investment….
Life is too short to not see the world, or experience different cultures…
 I was lucky to make one last trip to the beach this fall before the cold weather.
 I had so much fun walking this beach in my hat and lace top! 
Whenever I have the time I travel, even if its somewhere local like this little beach in NJ.
Life experiences give us adventures we can talk about and remember.
I have so much fun going to different locations,
 and putting fashion together along with my adventures!
The other aspect of travel that I love is you don't need to pack much to get on a plane and go!
 I recently purchased this hat in San Francisco,
 but I take it everywhere I travel to now… 
If I'm a wandering vagabond I must look the part…
This Victorian lace blouse is like something out of a time machine! 
It has a beautiful Victorian edge to it.
I love that I can get away with wearing this in the year 2015. 
Its a Gothic lace rock n roller look when paired with leather. 
I can't wear anything pastel or lace without putting leather with it. 
That's just my personal style, Soft and edgy.

Flower Child

On my trip to California San Francisco was an amazing city!!!  
Haight Ashbury was the highlight of my San Francisco trip.
 At Haight Ashbury there was so much culture from the music scene of the 1960s.
 It inspired me to put this Flower power inspired look together…
This boho dress from Shabbybabe is a true patchwork hippie dress
The multicolor floral print is incredible! 
The purple ruffle and bodice both match so perfectly!
 I wore this dress all throughout San Francisco on my nights out in the city. 
I received so many compliments on it. 
A denim jacket tones down this dress a notch if your looking for a more casual look. 
To complete this outfit I wore my tan Jeffrey Campbell boots from Free People with it. 
I have 2 pairs of these boots because they match every dress so well! 
The boots were well worth the investment. 
I find that its hard to find a nice summer boot to put with midi dresses in the summer. 
If your looking for that perfect boot, I suggest these Jeffrey Campbell ones..
I'm definitely going to miss San Francisco. Never have I seen so many gorgeous coastlines and bridges.
The San Francisco hills were insane! I can't wait to visit again soon!

Street Style

I found the most amazing Graffiti wall the other day!! 
After driving by it a few times I felt inspired to shoot a few looks by the wall. 
As I've probably mentioned in my other posts I love bright colors! 
Buffalo plaids are a great way to wear reds,blues,yellows,and even bright pinks… 
Its is such a classic print!!
 I just discovered Buffalo plaids this year!
 Never before have I had it in my fall wardrobe… 
The large checkered print looks great on everyone…
I was so lucky to find this cute little wool jacket from Shabbybabe
I never see these anywhere!
 I can't even find these in the mainstream clothing stores… 
 I see a lot of buffalo plaid shirts but not jackets…
 I hate wearing big long winter coats when its only 65 degrees outside. 
It was a little bit cold while shooting by this wall,and 
The jacket came in so handy for the shoot! 
I love the tailoring.. 
Tailoring always makes a jacket look and fit better.
This cute jacket can probably be unisex as well.. 
It'd look great on guys and girls!!
I finished the outfit with another one of my favorite pairs of boots and simple dark blue denim jeans.
A simple yet casual Fall look.

Kawaii Bear Adventure

Theres Something about a hand knit sweater that just makes you feel
 warm,cozy,and special every time you wear it!
I love those clothes that are handmade with love.
I make sure to support the handmade/Crafting industry for that reason.
There are so many talented people out there with amazing skill sets selling unique gorgeous pieces.
I think its important to have a whole stash of sweaters this winter! 
Especially if your from a colder climate like me! 
This cute Teddy bear sweater is entirely hand knit! 
Its so soft and beautiful.
 I fell in love with the soft pastels in this Shabbybabe sweater!
Its pink with a teddy bear which is perfect for me because I'm the ultimate girly girl.
I also love Kawaii style clothing which this reminds me of.
I don't know why,but in the winter its more uplifting for me to put on pinks,blues,reds,and lavenders…
With soft pastel colors like this teddy bear sweater, 
I have fun making it edgier by putting it with leather accessories. 
That soft/hard look is perfect for a sweater like this one…
I just bought these leather shorts over the summer from H&M but had no shirt to put with them.
The pink Kawaii style sweater works perfectly.
I've  also been addicted to Vidakush for their edgy and unique accessories selection. 
So I put my Vidakush Gold loop choker with it to complete the look, with a messy ponytail. 
Hopefully your now a little more style inspired to  begin the winter.
Its the toughest time of year,
 but with a few fun wardrobe suggestions we'll all make it through this season.

Vitamin Sea

How I loved Monterey, California! 
Its probably one of the most scenic and beautiful spots to visit in all of California. 
I was very lucky to have experienced it for a few days.
 The Monterey beaches were so gorgeous it was like being on a movie set!
I was only there for 4 days but I think I'd like to go back for a week or 2.
While I was in Monterey,
I stopped along the 17 mile drive to shoot a few gorgeous printed vintage dresses.
This peasant dress from Shabbybabe has pretty puff sleeves and high slits on each side. 
I'd say its more of a beach dress than a regular day dress.
 It would make a gorgeous beach cover up to throw on over a bikini!
 I love the print! Its a jungle theme print. 
It has palm trees,elephants, and tigers!!
 When I go to the beach I can never be without a few accessories so, 
I bought this pair of Chacos Sandals over the summer.
 I love them! 
Their fashioned of 100% real leather,
 and I've never worn a sandal so comfortable in my life! 
They were ideal for walking around on the rocky terrain.
 I always put on a vintage leather belt with a boho dress like this! 
Concho belts are truly my favorite accessory. 
I just bought this Choker during the summer. 
Its a tribal themed piece from one of my favorite online jewelry stores,"Child of Wild".
I said to myself this summer I needed "Vitamin Sea" 
and I definitely got a huge dose of it while in California!
