I have finally returned to the world of blogging, this past month I've been focusing mainly on my academic work and trying to be a good student over the past couple of weeks. I'm not going to lie, but I missed the life of being a blogger and I'm so glad to finally be back. I am officially on Spring Break and I soo can't wait to upload more photo's of my personal style, life inspirations and more

Christian Dior Couture 2012

The Christian Dior Couture 2012 collection was filled with beautiful, timeless and feminine pieces. That would make any woman feel absolutely beautiful, confident and elegant when wearing these clothes. Dispite the negative comments that the collection lacked orginality and creativity without John Galliano. I still believe the collection came out beautifully.

Fashion editorials or ad campaigns can be a great source of inspiration to apply into their everyday look or just to try something. Even though I personally can’t afford the Jill Stuart S/S 2012 collection (life a college student), I just fell in with their campaign. The soft pastel color, light and airy clothing pieces are all scream spring to me. Here’s is quick tip on how to achieve this look on closet on a college student budget. This spring look for soft and delicate colors whether it’s from your local thrift store, chain stores such as Forever 21 and H&M or even shop your own closet. You will be amazed by the things that you currently have in your closet and don’t even know it.

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE J

Jason Wu for Target: Finally Released

Jason Wu has always been one of my favorite designers. His designs are always classic and feminine with a modern and quirky twist (which I truly adore). So I was super ecstatic (more like super crazy excited) when I heard the Jason Wu has collaborating with Target. It was so refreshing to see that I finally can afford a piece of one favorite designer piece on a college student budget. The first images of the collection were released earlier today and it was more than I ever expected. The modern pleated dress, structural handbag and quirky dress play a fun and playful look to any women’s style. I truly can’t wait for the collection to hit stores on February 5.

I know I’ve been neglecting my blog for over a month now, but it’s all for a good reason. I’ve been so stressed and busy from school, that I really and truly didn’t have time to update my blog. I recently got accepted to become a style guru for http://collegefashionista.com for the spring semester and I’m so super excited and nervous at the same time.

Anyway let me stop talking about my life and let me introduce you to the Erdem Pre-Fall 2012 Collection. The first time I saw the collection I immediately feel in love, with the feminine silhouettes, elegance, chicness and all the beautiful elements of being women. I truly can’t get enough of this collection.

I really really hope I get to post more looks on my blog soon.

Wearing: Forever 21 jacket, Old Navy blouse, sister jeans

Midterms, midterms, midterms that is all that has been on my mind during last week. I felt my mind spinning a million times, but all the hard work paid out in the end. So please forgive for my lack of posts lately. The weather is Connecticut I’ve been so cold lately, that all can’t to do is snuggle up in my bed all day and night. It’s suppose it snow tomorrow, (AHHHH). I’m so not ready for winter it makes me feel like going back home to enjoy the 80 plus degree weather.

I hope you’re having a great kick start off this week. I’ve been sick with the cold all day yesterday and now I’m feeling a little better. Enough, talk about being sick. This is what I wore today, something super easy and fun. I really can’t believe I’m in October and its 80 degrees, how crazy is that not that I’m complaining.

If some of you guys are wonderful, yes that all my natural hair. I really don’t wear my hairs out that much, so don’t except that often.
