All In The Details...Texas Style

Happy Hump Day!!! Most of you loves already know I was in Texas for a wedding and some fun! I'm back in LA now and getting ready for New York Fashion Week, it's been crazy! Before I get into all that, I wanted to share my last Texas outfit post with ya'll. This beautiful crocheted dress was perfection for the occasion. The detail on this dress by Zara was made for a petite figure like mine. I paired it with some modern cow girl Target boots that you can find Here to keep things neutral. I thought, since I was in Texas it's only appropriate to carrie a brown leather cross body bag from Charlotte Russe that you can find Here. It's one of my favorite bags because of its laser cut-out detailing is perfection. This silhouette is beautiful for any country occasion.  






These photo were taking in the beautiful country side of Salt Lick and not photo shopped :)

My journey to Prada Marfa

Tuesday, August 20, 2013 I made the long drive to Marfa, Texas a very small town out in the middle of no mans land. Where they have the Prada installation and let me tell you, you have to be super dedicated to drive for seven long hours from San Antonio and seven hours back home, so a total of 14 hours. I figured since I was already in Texas lets make a whole day of it! Driving down the freeway seemed like an eternity also because we had no idea if it was still there or not. As we were approaching the installation I was so nerves, I guess because it took us so long to get there. This has become a landmark out in Marfa, Texas. This small town has a population of less than 2,000 people . Prada Marfa was established on October 1, 2005 the artists names were Elmgreen and Dragset. The town Marfa has become the fastest growing art community; due to the fact, that the landscape and the people help artist create new ideas.   

Of course I wanted to take some photos for you dolls just incase you never get the chance to go. I also wanted to get some really awesome shots of the installation by its self to hang in my house. If you were wondering about the  merchandise in the installation it's all from fall 2005. FIY you can't go inside, but if you ever get the chance to visit and you have a passion for fashion you should def check it out. 

Since I drove so far I wanted to make sure I took lots of pictures I mean a lot lol. Of course I had to wear my Prada inspired sunglasses for this occasion with my Once Youth  tee. I don't always were muscle tees because they tend to look kinda boyish. To turn that boyish tee around I paired it with a fitted skirt and tucked it in, to give me shape. I hope I was able to inspire you to go get what you want even if it takes 14 long hours lol. (Lots more photos from Prada Marfa coming soon!)

Texas Chic and Faux-Leather

Howdy ya'll!!! I hope everyone is having a faboulus week so far? As for myself I'm still in the big ol' state of Texas (San Antonio to be exact).  On my drive from Houston to San Antonio I had to make a stop at Palmetto State Park to capture it's beautiful scenery. To my surprise as I was leaving the park I came across a dear and for a split second we both locked eyes and he/she ran into the wildness. I don't think I've ever seen anything so beautiful! When choosing my outfit for the day I wanted something that represent some of Texas and of corse my own style. This beautiful white tube dress you can find Here at Karmaloop.com I completely fell in love with the back detailing of this dress for earrings I paired my BCBGeneration ear cuffs that you can find Here  


This adorable Charlotte Russe faux leather cross body bag was perfect for that Texas fill with it's laser cut outs and Texas swag. Since I don't own my own cow boy hat the next best thing is this chic faux-leather felted hat. Faux leather is a form of fake leather it's also cheaper than real leather. These felted hats are extremely popular for fall/winter. Do you own one?

Texas Affairs

Hey girls!!! How was your weekend? If you didn't know I'm in Houston Texas right now. I came down for a wedding and heading to San Antonio, Austin and Dallas. The wedding I attended was a good friend of mine and it was such a beautiful moment and I'm so glad I was able to be there for their special day. This Ariel pink dress was so perfect for this occasion.  It's light pink chiffon fabric and low back had enough class and elegance. I found this little number at Nordstrom for only $98.00 if you're looking for any last minute summer wedding dresses check them out! I kept it very simple with almost no accessories remember "less is more" sometimes.  


Let me know if you would like to see a tutorial on how I curled my hair?

My Mermaid Silhouette

This past Sunday I went to The Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes. This beautiful resort has some amazing views, a pool that over looks the pacific ocean and great food to just have a relaxing getaway. I thought my outfit was perfect for this breezy day out in Palos Verdes. I wore a black high waisted skirt from at Nordstrom with a black cropped bandeau top from  Charlotte Russe which gave this a mermaid silhouette with somewhat of a classy look. I through on an embroidered sheer vest by Tildon to top off the look and an easy up-do for the breezy weather. This look is great for an evening at the beach or a relaxing getaway.   





As for accessories I've been loving this combo lately and it's not a secret that I love stacking necklaces both from at Forever21  on my Left arm I have a Nixon watch from at Nordstrom with my fab gifted bracelet from  Judith Bright Right arm both stacked bracelets are from Nordstrom

Gold & Neutral Accents

Gold has to be one of my favorite accent colors out there. Not only does it go well with black, but it also looks great on neutral tones. Here I paired a neutral tee with floral printed shorts to balance the neutral color on the shorts for a casual hot summer day in LA. For shoes I kept it simple with these thick heel single sole pumps that you can find at  Charlotte Russe (click the link) for only $30.00
