Statement Jeans.

So obviously this outfit is about the jeans! We found them really weird?, but sometimes weird makes a statement. Wear the unwearable we always say. We Did the yellow tank and green belt to match the colored print. The wedges are also to match the print. They are a beautiful blue suede fabric. They look chic and expensive and are from express. They were only a fabulous price of $6.99. Yes you read right, what better deal can you get?!

The little sweater.

So I think we all have the sweater which we can dress up or down, with jeans , skirts , or shorts. This sweater for us would be it.  We decided to do a skirt in this look. Both pieces are loose so it gives this effortless look. We love the print its bold and makes a statement. We did this bag that we love, it has some chains on the handle and it gives a chanel vibe. We topped it off with he accessories we felt fit the vibe.

Dress to Kill.

This dress is simple but we think simple sometimes makes a statement? We loved how the one shoulder is the lace detail of the dress. We did a belt to make her waist visible. We really wanted the shoes to shine, who doesn't love floral wedges? Hope you guys like it!

BowsBows.

So today's look is centered around bows and bows. We love when a girl uses bowties, I think there isn't a rule that says women can't use them. They give women a certain vibe to looking independent! We paired it with this little bow skirt to keep the feminine vibe and we layered it with the vest matching the color of the little bows. Its balances both masculinity and femininity in one outfit. We finished it with these little booties that seemed to fit the whole outfit.

Guess whose back?

So guess who is back? Ana is finally back! So now she will be here from now on. This is a dress I made recently. Have you noticed our deep obsession for peter pan collars?! I did this peter pan collar with lace and added a piece of lace on the bottom. I think the cream looks amazing with this black lace. It helps the lace stand out. I added the red belt cause I thought the color palette was good too. Hope you guys like it.

A fairytale.

So today I was on the run and was able to shoot this! I love the color palette I used here, the cream with the sort of brownish pink and brown! I think the colors really worked! I realize I need to buy more graphic tees because they make a outfit more interesting than one thats plain! I fell in love with these shoes at the fabulous price of $19.99. I knew I just had to get them! Hope you guys like it!

Be Fearless.

So super quick pictures of my outfit today, didn't take many cause I was in a rush but here they are. Not much to say, I love the print on this cardigan and the crawl neck. I don't like where it lands on me though. It isn't so flattering but when I put it with this it worked. I love my bowties! I think all we men do! Hope you guys like it.

Peterpam

So no outfit post for today. It was the stay at home in PJ's movie type of day. I want to talk about something I love and have seen for quite sometime! Peterpan collars! I love them! I think they're so chic and vintage! The lace one in the picture I fell in love with! I notice they also sell them separately! I love that! You can match with different tops! I love how some have spikes , or different things on them!
                           So tell me what do you guys think and do you like it?
        Hope you guys bare with me and will try to get more outfits, XOXO RAFAEL.

A new beginning around the corner.

So today's title is all how I just can't wait to start college! L.A here I come! On another note im still totally depressed about leaving chicago with all my cousins there! Miss it incredibly bad!

I wore this the last time I went out in Chicago and thats what brought the memories haha. I love this top because how its one color and the collar and cuffs are another! I love my polka dot bowtie that I love to put it with everything! I love how it looks with the top though! Me and my obsession with this polka dot trend, ha!

Home sweet home.

So the title due to the fact that I am finally back to California! I was in Chicago for those who didn't know to visit family! Its such a beautiful city! If you go to the heart of Chicago its gorgeous! I went to visit family and its so hard to say goodbye! I hope I can go again soon!

So that's basically why I haven't updated in a while. Today's outfit is so simple yet so me. I have a huge obsession with polka dots and I thin they're so on trend! I saw this jumper on ASOS on sale and knew I had yo have it! I paired it with red to give it a pop of color! Hope you guys like it and will be updating more often now!

Smile, tomorrow will be worse.

So  I am still in Chicago for those who don't know! Its been 105 degree type of weather! So I am lucky enough to have a cousin who will drive me around to all the places I want to shop! We went to a mall that had an Urban Outfitters and I was in heaven. They have much more of a hippie vibe then my local one. I spotted this tee and fell in love! It was on sale so it was a mega plus! This is so artistic to me! Its a print of a woman with flowers all over her head! I love it! The flowers are in shades of coral that makes it pop out. I brought out the coral with my coral jeans! I wore these shades cause I think it fits the vibe of my outfit. Hope you guys like it!

A little pastel.

So I haven't been uploading any outfits because its been so HOT here in chicago. I haven't gone out as much because we like the air conditioner haha! But tomorrow plans to go shopping! SO excited there and maybe I can blog it. So heres another trend I have been dying to talk about! Pastel colors! Its in the stores, in the runways, and many bloggers blogging it.  Men and women! I love it and I think its a little different color palette for us to play with , but I also say it isn't good for everyone's skin! So you guys tell me:
DO YOU GUYS LIKE IT?
DO YOU WEAR IT?
HOW LONG WILL IT LAST?

So these pictures are a dress my cousin wore and I loved!, and asked her if she would appear on my blog! I loved the floral I think its so feminine, and it has a peter pan collar! Hope you guys like it!

I literally stay up till 5am watching this! Its a Spanish T.V series. Which I say for me are more interesting! I love it, they have the cutest, emotional, love story ever!

Anyways the outfit is just very simple, I get lazy when im not home and im on vacation to put more thought into my clothes, ha! Im thinking of taking picture better and in more creative places when i get home! Lets see how it works out! I was attracted to this sweater obviously because of the print. I also loved the white elbo pad, you know how I love those little details!
