Blast from the Past: The 20s and 60s

It is always so fun to have a modern vintage point of view in fashion and now we are revisiting to great fashion decades, like the 20s and 60s.

If you are going to celebrate the 60s you must wear Missoni!

Metallics and Sweet Pastels


Metallics are so fun! Of course we don't want to end up looking like tin man, so check out this awesome ideas and how to shimmer in a chic way.

Premium Silk Shimmer Pleat Dip Hem Skirt
This skirt is so pretty and feminine, its also pastel, so you accomplish two trends in one. Keep it very simple, since the skirt is such a statement piece. I would wear it with a white tank top and black high heels.


Shimmer Shorts


These shorts are fun! You can dress them down or up. Wear them with a chic blazer and sandals. So chic!

French Connection Sequin Dress
What a beautiful way to shine away! Keep accessories to minimal and pair with simple shoes.

Emma Cook Lurex Cardigan With Color Blocking

This sweater is so cool. Wear with a skirt, jeans, a dress, open or closed. Dressed up or down. Make it your own every time. 

This Spring wear Sweet Pastels, you will look so pretty! I don't usually wear pastels but these make me question my fashion instinct.

ASOS Embroidered Flower Dress
So lady like and pretty. Wear this dress to work or a formal day time event. Have fun with the accessories!

ZARA Asymmetric Seamed Top
I love this Zara top! The design and color, it's so cool. You can wear it with jeans, shorts, skirt, pants, whatever you want. 

Jane Strapless Dress
This dress is so sweet and sexy! I like the combination of both. You can wear it for a formal event during the day or at night. Accessorize as you wish.

Nishe Chiffon Blouse with Bow Embroidery
I think this is a cool top. Of course, you must be careful how you wear it because you don't want to look like your coming out of a 70s magazine. I wouldn't wear it with a belt like the picture, but I like it with shorts. It balances the girly. Wear with skinny jeans as well.

Tomorrow is our last day of fashion trends. Check out my Blast From the Past: 20s and 60s post.

Graphic Art Deco and Floral Prints

I have been getting used to not wearing much print, so when I saw that print was so "in" I got a little nervous. But when I did my research and found all these amazing items, then I got excited!

Ted Baker Digital Print Shift Dress


This dress is so chic! Wear with simple accessories if any, it doesn't need it. The dress is all you need.

Pattern Military Sweater Jacket

I love this jacket, I want it!!! You can wear it with pretty much anything.

Eden Skirt
Aahhh this skirt! Look at it! How beautiful!!! Wear it with a simple top, the skirt is the outfit. Also minimal accessories, I mean it!


FP New Romantics Geo Embroidered Cutout Dress

Another beauty! This trend is easy and so pretty... I would wear it exactly like the picture. For shoes I would do wedges, cool ones.

ZARA Printed Blazer

Everything Zara does its awesome, so this jacket is no different. Keep it cool though, or else you can look like an old english lady. 

ASOS Woven T-Shirt With Mixed Square Print
This top can be worn with denim, white or color pants, with a skirt. So have fun with it!

Indian Enchantment Dress

How pretty? For the romantic girl! 

Garden Party Oxfords
I love oxfords and I love these ones! They are so fun and cool. Keep the outfit simple, make the shoes the center of attention, as they deserve it!

Tomorrow it will be all about Metallics and Sweet Pastels

Neon and Pretty in Pink

WARNING: These two trends as fun as they are, can be dangerous, so put attention as to how to wear it.

I actually LOOOOVEEEE Neon, so when I read that they are one of the color trends of the season I got really excited! Check it out... (click on image to send you to direct link)

Nanette Lepore Skirt - Sweet Sixteen Pleated

I would wear this skirt with an oatmeal color top, very simple and straight lines. You don't want to add more color or design to such a strong skirt.

Ettika Gold Colored Rhinestone Chain and Neon Satin Bracelet

For those who don't know how to wear the trend. Just wear a small accessory like this one. So fun and cool, it will get everyones attention, in a good way of course!


MSGM Lace Shirt
The top is fun! The color on the lace makes it a special piece. I wouldn't wear with a skirt like in the picture. Since you are wearing such an overpowering color do a neutral color and not a mini skirt. You are wearing a lace transparent neon top, to not do a "fashion faux pas" wear it with a pencil skirt or a fuller skirt but very clean straight lines. Do it in a neutral color or even a blue would be fun. Do the same for pants, it would look awesome with pants.

Neon Ombre Rhinestone Headband
Another awesome accessory! This would be cool with hair down or up.

Look Pretty in Pink. Im still a little girl at heart because I love pink, but one must be careful wearing this color, don't want to look like an actual little girl. Here are some great options!


RED Valentino Taffeta Dress


I'm in love with this dress! Keep it all very simple, no accessories like the model and a very neutral shoe option. As for your hair, do something simple and sexy. Up or down would be fine.



ASOS Double Breasted Blazer With Gold Buttons
This jacket is so cool. You can wear it like the model or with all white underneath would be cool too. Just remember that you want to look cool not super girly 80s, so wear with straight lines modern items.


Gryphon Dress - V Neck with Detachable Belt



This dress is many trends in one. You have the high/low length, metallics, print and pink. So it is in itself a whole fashion trend! Keep it simple like the picture and you will look amazing!



Equipment Print Collar Silk Shirt




This blouse is beautiful! With a skirt like the picture would look great or with a pair of denim. Neutral colors is the secret, you can wear a fuller skirt but do it in neutral.

Did you like? Tomorrow it will be all about Graphic Art Deco and Floral Prints!

What I love about this coat are the colors and the style. It has a flare of the 60s without being overdone.

A cool winter sweater. Very 60s in a modern way. I love the colors of the sweater because it is so easy to wear with anything and the red gives it a pop of color.

This 70s looking coat is just so awesome! I am very into ombre items and the colors of this coat makes it perfect for any outfit.

Ready for the amazing sales???

One of the reasons this is one of my favorite times of the year is because of the sales that come with it. I have chosen two of my favorite websites to show some of their amazing sales. They offer free shipping both ways and no min. required (Click on images to get to link).

I am going to start with ASOS:

Nishe Winter Faux Fox Fur Coat With Leather Bows~ from $181.80 to $63.63!
I love this little coat. It is so "in" to wear faux fur right now and I just feel this design is so sweet and not overdone. Besides, the leather bows are adorable!


Religion Dress With Embellishment~ from $185.44 to $123.62
This dress is just so cool. It is unique and a total head turner. Want to wear something nobody else will? this is the dress. It is very Dior looking, so you are getting a good deal on an amazing dress.

ASOS Midi Skirt in Leather and Suede~ from $163.62 to $81.81
I love the color of the skirt. It is perfect for this season. And the mix of leather and suede makes it a really different skirt. I just love it!

Clothing store 6pm.com always has amazing sales. I'm going to show some shoes that I found awesome. 

B. Makowsky Tuttle Black Suede~ from $269 to $161.99
These boots are just awesome. They are thigh high and with the cool belts give it a tough look without being too much. Show them over jeans, with a dress, skirt or leggings. 

Aldo Siptak Grey~ from $130 to $79.99
I like mixing leather with suede. It gives it a luxourius look without being too much. The color and the height are perfect for either a night out or just going to the movies.


Report Belzer thigh high boots~ from $190 to $142.99
An amazing pair of boots that have some height but not too much that you will feel too tired using them all day. The color and suede texture makes them a real fun pair of boots. Wear them with anything!

Visit both websites for other cool items. They are filled with amazing merchandise. Other websites that I recommend are Victoriasecret.com, they are having their semi-annual sale. Urbanoutfitters.com is having an amazing sale as well, and you'll find cute dresses down to $20 dlls! and last I am going to suggest checking out jcrew.com, it has as well their outlet store on the same website. Besides the big sale that they are having you can enjoy an additional 20% off.

Have fun shopping!

Still don't know what to wear for NEW YEARS?...

This year I am having a sweats and big sweater new year's feast, but for those who are going to party your booties off and haven't found "the" dress 
here are some options that are less than $150, 
except for a leather dress that is too hard to resist!
(Click on the image to direct link to website)


~I am going to start with free people, 
which is one of my favorite shops~


New Romantics Adriatic Queen Dress 

This dress is awesome and with a great price! If I was going to party I would be between this one and another from another shop (that I will show further on in the post). I love how this dress is so fashionable, sexy without being in your face and different. It's long, which is so "in" right now.


Solid Slub Maxi Slip
For the girl that likes the hobo chic style, this dress is perfect! The color and length makes it ideal for a cool party, and the bottom of the dress makes it romantic and a bit hippie. You can dress it up with gold accessories and a statement hair style or keep it hobo chic like the model. As you can see it is a bit see thru, so wear a slip underneath. 

~My second shop is going to be ASOS. Their prices are always so accessible and their styles so fun! They offer free shipping both ways~

Vero Moda Very Deco Fringe Halter Dress
This dress is another unique finding. It is very Gucci looking. I like the detail of the fringe and the color. It is definitely another stand out dress, nobody would wear something like it.

Reverse Hi Lo Dress With Studded Lace Bustier
This dress is the other dress that I would buy. I would buy them all, but I'm feeling at this time like wearing these kind of styles. I love using lace and mixing it up with tough stuff, like in this case the studs. I like the hi-lo length in dresses and skirts. 

~Finally, we have topshop! what can I say about topshop? come on, 
it is just so fun and fashionable, no need for me to explain further~

VELVET HALTER DRESS

For the romantic girl that loves vintage looks. This dress would be completed with a chic thin belt to accentuate your waist. Velvet is so "in" right now. It is very romantic, fashionable and sexy looking. 


STUD BUSSLE BACK LEATHER DRESS BY DRESS UP



Ok this is my expensive item and it is just so cool, it had to be on my list! Come on, the studs, the design, the leather... it says it all, this is for the trendsetter sexy cool chic girl. You want to turn heads? here you go my friend.


People, check out the three web sites, they ALL have amazing dresses. It was hard picking which ones to choose from. I kept going back and forth but in the end these were the finals. And hey, whatever you wear I'm sure you will look awesome. Just rock it baby!
