Summer Fashion 101: MINI SKIRT + TANK TOP

It was a warm day out today... This outfit seemed perfect! It was dressy enough for the meetings I attended and breezy enough for the DC heat. I particularly love the colors... This tank top (aka wife-beater) is my favorite. Although tight and stretchy, it is anything but uncomfortable. I'm wearing it for the past four years, and still love it. It goes with everything. Now, let's talk about this cute skirt. I absolutely love the shape and the color. It is probably one of the simplest and cheapest piece of clothing I own, but it looks so chic... and that's how everyone should build their wardrobe - not a lot of expensive and tacky clothes, but few cute and inexpensive ones.

Sunday Funday Fashion: Ruffles & PolkaDots

I posed for these pictures right before it started pouring... Unfortunately I didn't bring an umbrella with me, so I was completely wet by the time I got to my coffee shop. Anyway, my outfit for the day: a very cute dress (yes, it looks like a dressy tank top with polka dotted skirt). I got it from Abercrombie and Fitch two years ago. What I absolutely love about this dress is the fit. The stretchy top part hugs the body right while the ruffles give it a dressy look. The skirt is a whole another story. It is creates a beautiful silhouette, and together with the dress it makes my figure look hourglass-y ha! I accessorized with light pink pearl necklace my grandma gave me, and Kate Spade pink stud earrings.

Bright Colors + Funky Prints = Fashion Courage

 I am definitely one of those people who wear a lot of colors. So this colorful mess is what I wore today. I'm not a fan of long skirts, so I own only two ankle-length skirts. This bright blue silk skirt one of them. I got it from a tiny boutique in LA five years ago. It caught my eye, and i remember thinking I will leave this store with this skirt no matter what... The fashion police says that it is illegal to wear floral prints with stripes. I say "Why not?" I love mixing and matching funky prints... My pink and orange tube top compliments the pink floral prints on the skirt. (Accessories: vintage-looking* earrings and 60's cat-eye shades. I recommend wearing sandals with this kind of fun outfits.
