Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Today's look is one that's perfect for the office during this time of year. It's colorful, fresh, and exudes summer to the fullest. It reminds me of nature in land and sea form. The aqua blouse resembles the sea, while the animal print mixture on the skirt is reflective of land. The tortoise sunglasses with the aqua trim was a perfect way to finish the look, since it encompassed both colors and vibes in one. 

What do YOU think of the look? I hope it inspires you :) Thanks so much for stopping by!

XxO,

Happy Friday babes!

If you're like me, you love to try and get your hands on pieces before the actual season starts. It's when we get the best deals and save more, since most people aren't even thinking about the season ahead. That said, I couldn't resist the urge to share some of my favorite pieces that exude the same Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2015 collection vibe. When I first saw photos from the collection, I was literally amazed with practically every piece. Of course I can't afford the entire collection, but I can certainly afford these pieces that aren't even close to the amount of the actual Dolce piece it resembles. 

So what do you think? How do you feel about the Dolce & Gabbana collection this fall? Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend! 

XxO,

Jalisa

Happy Thursday!

I hope you're all having an awesome start to your day so far! You know how much I love trying new color combinations and this lavender and olive duo is a match made in heaven. I absolutely love the way these two colors compliment each other; they're perfect to wear all throughout spring into autumn and depending on the pieces of course, winter! I know you guys probably don't even want to have a discussion about winter, haha; I don't blame you! I thought to create this pairing when I created my olive x aqua look (found here). I was trying to think outside the box when it came to the olive and so many different colors started coming to mind an lavender was one of them. 

I hope you feel inspired by this combo and think to give it a try on yourselves because it's one that I feel would look great on most skin-tones :)

Have an awesome rest of your day, beautiful! Thanks for stopping by :)

Happy Hump Day beauties,

After flipping through my magazine collection, I've noticed a reoccurring theme that I love for fall, chunky oversized sweaters paired with fitted skirts. Even though we are still in summer, fall is literally right around the corner, so what better time to prepare our closets then now?! I'm swooning over this combo and I know you will too because on those autumn days when you really don't know what to wear, this can certainly become a go-to option. It's easy and and reads minimalistic cool. Above is a look I created which will give you an idea on how you can style this trend; I hope you find it inspirational! 

Thanks so much for stopping by and have an amazing day!

XO, 

Jalisa

SHIRT: Sans Souci from Marshalls (similar style here)  //  SKIRT: Theory (similar style here)  // PURSE: Tory Burch (similar style here)  // SHOES: Kenneth Cole (similar style on sale here) // NECKLACE: c/o Athra Luxe 

Happy Tuesday!

One popular trend that I've been loving is the buttoned skirt. I think it adds more detail and interest to an otherwise simple skirt, making it much more unique. I happened to score this white one by Theory at a local thrift store. I was beyond excited when I spotted it and the price point was perfect. It's true what they say, you can certainly find some hidden treasures at thrift stores, you just have to have the patience to dig! 

When it comes to body shapes, I think this trend would work well for every shape. For the apple and inverted triangle, it adds some interest to the bottom portion of the legs, helping to enhance your natural slender and defined legs. For the hourglass and pear, although these two shapes are quite curvy on the bottom, depending on the style, it can truly enhance those natural curves; a higher waist is best. Lastly, for the rectangular this style helps to create a nice focal point and if it's a high waisted style, it'll help to re-establish the waist area. 

I hope you all found this post helpful in getting ready this Tuesday morning! I wish you all an awesome and productive day :)

XO, 

Jalisa
