Tri-Denim

If you haven’t already figured it out, I work at a clothing store in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles. With the location of my job being what it is, HEAVEN’S CLOSET, I definitely see new styles, new trends, the popular’s and the not so much, come in and out of stores…EVERY DAY. I am a witness that styles change rapidly and so often that I get lots of questions on how to style certain “IT” trends to avoid over-doing it. One being the infamous “Tribal”. But before I continue, let’s be honest! My taste, could not so much be yours and vice versa. So, what I share here are my own opinions from experience. For example, if it’s a black & white tribal piece, I think a perfect neon color, whether it be a top or bottom, is a perfect combination to give it that pop of color. Or how about pairing tribal with typical neutral colors. But like I said, many people don’t like bold colors that attract too much attention, while others like to be the eye of the tiger. So, a perfect piece that never fails to please my customers in general, whether it’s a colorful tribal print or a classic B&W, is good ol’ Denim. Who doesn’t love denim?! It goes with ANYTHING! I mean, you can wear denim on denim & ROCK IT for crying out loud. SERIOUSLY!!! How much more versatile can a clothing item like this get?!
SOOOO, if you have a pair of tribal leggings that you’ve been dying to wear stored up somewhere in your closet for months but haven’t because you didn’t know how to wear them… TRI-DENIM! It never seems to fail! Blessings! XO-M

Steez

Cali livin’! Hey guys! Today I bring you a fit that I normally wouldn’t wear. Not because I don’t like it but mainly because when it comes to exposing skin, I like to do so in a “leave more to the eye” type of way. In other words, when it comes to skin, I prefer showing off my legs, shoulders and back. I feel like those three areas are so BEYOND sexy…well at least in my opinion. However, today I decided to try something totally new for me…and that is my stomach. It was another sunny, kinda hot day in L.A. So I wanted to stay a little cool. A very effortless look but perfect to just throw on without looking too bummy. With this look, you can definitely hit up the streets, grab lunch and lounge around stores in street style ;) Hope you all had a fun Wednesday! The weekend is almost here!!! HANG TIGHT! Blessings!!!! XO-M

Ethnic

Hola mis amores!!!!!! Today was a good day. I woke up and felt more alive than ever. Life is good and it’s even better when you are well dressed :) Like all other Sunday’s, I woke up, ate breakfast and did minimal chores. I then got ready for mass and headed out on an evening with my love. I can’t say we do much but every time we are together, life is balanced. I feel safe and sound. Like perfection exists and nothing or anyone could ever come between us. ANYWAY…before I become all hopeless romantic on you, let’s just focus on why you are here…TODAY’S OUTFIT OF THE DAY!!!!! For today’s fit, I went for an ethnic look. Considering that I am Mexican and love to embrace my heritage anyway possible, the day I saw this skirt, I knew it had to come home with me. I love things that remind me of my culture and traditions. This skirt is a perfect example of who I am and where I come from. The colors express happiness and at the same time, the simplicity of this skirt represents humility. Which are two things I characterize myself as, happy & humble. Anyway, focusing on styling this outfit. I was very minimal with accessories but chose ones that would compliment my skirt. Wooden accessorize are a GREAT combination. Hope you guys like!!! :) Blessings! XO-M

Blue Jean

Heyyy Dolls!!!!!!!! How’s the weather treating you?! If you’re in Cali, you know what’s up. For the past 3-4 days, us Angelinos have been experiencing a MAJOR heat wave. I’m seriously LOVING it! Summer is OFFICIALLY here in L.A. and I seriously can’t wait to hit the beach, lay by the pool, BBQ’s, tanning and having some Summer fun! For today’s outfit, considering the heat and taking in mind that I would be attending church, I decided to bring out this oOber cute denim dress. I added a belt to compliment my shoes and voila! A very simple look for a Summer day! I can’t wait to re-wear this dress & style it differently. It’s perfect. If I may say so, aside from it looking like the dresses ladies wore back in the 50’s, the sweet-heart front knot and the very small open back detail sold me. Anyway, enjoy this Summer ladies and don’t be afraid to have fun with your fits. Try new trends and rock it in YOUR own personal way. Blessings!!! XO-M

Keep Calm, Wear Bows

Happy Sunday lovelies!!! Today I woke up early to get a few home chores out of the way and as soon as all that was done, I was able to get started on my favorite part of the day…getting ready! For today, I felt like embracing my femininity and looking dressy. After all, I was going to attend mass at noon and then head out for a sushi/movie date with my beau. Let me briefly say that, if I had to choose a specific style to wear for the rest of my life, it would have to be one that’s very feminine and classy. You know, flared dresses, button up tops with skirts and high waisted dressy shorts. Definitely very “Jackie Kennedy” and “A la Hepburn”. Hence, my inspirations for today…but of course, with a modern twist. Anyway, kept my look very classy but young with this vibrant orangy top. Which by the way, i’m obsessing over thanks to the bows in the back. Paired it with this white skirt with an almost 3D print, if that makes sense. To finish off the look, I added this patent leather belt to compliment my shoes and wore very minimum jewelry in gold to bring out the orange color more. Hope you guys like my look! Simplicity at it’s finest! :) Blessings! XOXO -M
