As if!



The 90s are back and I couldn't be any happier! Overalls, flannel, and chunky shoes are lurking back into my wardrobe and I sometimes feel like I belong in a Mary-Kate and Ashley movie. I'm ready for this comeback as long as bucket hats and fluorescent slap bracelets stay away, I never really liked those anyway. Let's throw it back it to 1996 and check out my 90s inspired outfits!

Shoes of the Moment!

It is safe to say that I am a shoe addict! My shoes no longer fit in my closet and I've had to get creative to find places to keep them. This however, does not stop me from buying new shoes ;) Here are four pairs of shoes that I am in love with at the moment!


1. Stuart Weitzman Gladiator Flat Sandals $398
2. Schutz 'Slate' Booties $200
3. Timberland Premium Booties $150
4. Jeffrey Campbell 'Everly' Booties $200

Although these shoes are all gorgeous, they are a little pricey. I believe in splurging when it comes to certain shoes, but it is easy to find shoes just as cute as the designer ones that won't necessarily hurt your wallet. I decided to splurge and bought the Schutz lace up booties because a black heel like this one works with almost any outfit. Luckily, for the other shoes I found some awesome lookalikes that were way cheaper. Check out these steals! 
Forever 21- $39.90
Forever 21- $36.80

Steve Madden- $69.90


And for the $plurge... Schutz

Golden Globes Top Fashion Picks

Last night were the 71st annual Golden Globe Awards where the best film and television works are recognized for their excellence in 2013. As exciting as the actual award show may be, I was looking forward to the fashion on the red carpet by Hollywood's finest and I definitely was not disappointed! There were so many stunning looks on the carpet that it was hard for me to choose favorites! So to keep things short and sweet, here are my top 3 favorite looks:
Emma Watson in Dior
Lupita Nyong'o in Ralph Lauren
Olivia Wilde in Gucci 
Emma Watson killed the red carpet with this gorgeous open back dress paired with sleek black cigarette pants which isn't something you see on a regular basis at a red carpet event. Without a doubt, Emma made the biggest fashion statement of the night. Lupita however did not let Emma take all the fashionista spotlight as she also made a statement in this stunning crimson gown that had a cape! She kept the make up and jewelry simple and allowed the dress to do all the talking. My final favorite of the night was mom-to-be Olivia Wilde in this gorgeous Gucci green gown which did wonders for her eyes and figure as well. Whoa! Such beautiful ladies and sophisticated looks.

Who were your favorites of the night? Comment below! <3

Kimono 着物

When I hear the word kimono I can't help but think about Mulan. So when I heard about all these 'kimonos' becoming a thing in some of my favorite stores, I got super excited because I love Mulan! These kimonos are obviously not traditional and have more of a modern twist. I see it more as an accessory and it adds a little dazzle to any simple outfit. I paired it with some high waisted denim shorts, a black sweater crop top, some simple jewelry, and my favorite black cutout boots. Take a look!

Midi Love


Currently Midi obsessed! Whether its a skirt or a dress, I can't get enough! These are perfect when you don't want to show too much leg (like with a mini skirt) or too little (maxi skirt). It gives your body a sleek shape and you could wear it with a jacket to work or with a cute little crop top for a night out for drinks or even clubbing! Just because its not short, does not mean its not sexy! That is why I love midi <3 Here is how I did the midi trend:

Skirt: Topshop
Leather croptop: Zara
Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell- Litas

Allow Me To Introduce Myself


Bonjour! Before I start posting all my thoughts onto here, I would like to properly introduce myself (the about me does not seem like enough). My name is Adriana. I'm 20 years old and I was born and raised in the city of Miami and find my roots in Venezuela. I currently attend the University of Miami where I am studying Public Relations and French. C'est fantastique! When I'm not studying I'm probably out shopping, hanging out with friends at my favorite places, or relaxing at home listening to music... and eating.

Soooo why a blog?
If there's one thing I enjoy doing, it is dressing to impress. Yes. I love fashion and everything about it! I get excited every night before I go to bed thinking about the outfit i'm going to wear the next day. Most people find shopping challenging but for me it is fun and exciting. Finding a new piece is like finding a small hidden treasure. I decided to make a blog where I can express myself and share my looks, styles, fashion tips, and interests with others. Hope you enjoy!
