4 - Color on the Streets

Black and Grays, Rainy Days

Despite the warmth that today had in store, the weather was certainly not letting us enjoy a minute of it. The only thing that makes a Monday even worse, is rain (or snow). I took an interest into what people choose to wear on these gloomy days, and like you would expect, there was tons of black. I find it interesting to look at what makes people dress the way they do. Some dress for the weather, some dress for the way they feel that day, others dress to impress, some dress for comfort, and some dress to express.

Here are some of the black rainy day styles I caught!

3 - Style from the Streets

Pattern Leggings and Tightsss

now, i KNOW for sure that every one of us has spotted these before. Personally, when i first noticed that patterned tights were coming into style, i didn't expect myself to fall into it, but ofcourse they are one of my favorites in my closet nowadays. who woulda known.

they make simple outfits not so simple, and considering im a big fan of the minimalism trend so a lot of my everyday outfits aren't super exciting or something out of the ordinary, but putting on a pair of pattern tights defntly changes it up!

I saw this girl on the train one night going out, thought she looked really cute! I did feel a little creepy taking the picture though ha.

Im sure you guys can agree that a pair of Spanx is as good as anything! gotta love em

2-Key Items for Spring11

After exploring more fashion forecasting sights, I started getting really into it. im pretty excited to see some of the new concepts I found for Spring 11. These are some examples of my favorite colors and themes for this upcoming spring!

Since the beginning of fall, I've been really into oversized shirts not only because they are comfortable and flow nicely, but they are trendy and sophisticated all in one. One key item for Spring 11 in my closet will certainly be an oversized shirt, especially because it can be matched with almost anything =P

Happy Valentines Day

1- Find a Fashion Blog on the Web

http://www.karlascloset.com/

I love reading karlascloset, on a boring day, I check up to see her latest outfits and vintage peices. I love that she pairs vintage classics with newer styles, and can incorporate a 5$ shirt with Prada shoes.

This blog is my friend Sam's. We met while working together at an Italian Bakery, Fiorello Dulce in Huntington, NY. I love her style, which is similar to mine, so I love her fashion blog. Also she blogs about food and other things that interest her such as DIY projects, which i LOVE. Now she is in Portugal, and I'm looking forward to reading about her experience there.

Hope you guys check them out!
