Graphic Goodness

Photos by Angie Garcia Photography

Even though we’re in the middle of winter, I’m looking forward to Spring and all the gorgeous prints. I am head-over-heels about head-to-toe prints seen on the runway! This graphic check crop top and culotte are no exception. Right now, the whole outfit is on sale (top for $16 and culottes for $10). The crop top was a wee bit shorter than I was hoping so I pinned the back of the culottes so they would hit right at the waist, and I would size up on the culottes (I wearing a size 6). For the record, these were taken before it got freezing cold over here! This is a wishing-it-were-Spring-but-it’s-winter outfit! :)

The Style Rx: Don’t have time to match?! Wear a print on top and bottom! Make sure one piece if somewhat fitted (or accentuates your waistline) so you don’t get lost in the print.

Lately, I find myself gravitating towards neutral colors like grey, black, white, and camel. Not to say that there’s anything wrong with that, but I’ve always worn bright colors especially during winter to battle the dreary doldrums. It’s funny how our style evolves with age and different life events. Obviously, Little M plays a huge factor in my day-to-day attire, but I always like to dress up if given a chance.

By the way, have you heard or Rocksbox? It’s a monthly jewelry subscription where you get 3 different pieces to try and wear for as long as you want.
