Fashionably Late

As my fingers got stiff and I felt the cobwebs forming in my brain, I decided some blogging was in order, and what better way to get back into the game than through some fashion writing. I’ve put together a few of my favorite outfits from over the last few months which range from casual to dressy. Note how my hair goes from long to medium length to short in this span of time :P
The first outfit in the panel of four below was put together for a fun day of mini golfing. Not only was the fedora a stylish accessory, it also helped shade my eyes from the sun (which did nothing for my golfing skills – I still came in last!). The second outfit was a cute, girly look that I decided to wear to class on a day when I felt like dressing up. The light, breezy attire in the third panel was chosen for breakfast at Cora’s, while the last one was the outfit of choice for the movies.

I picked up the fun, flirty summer dress below from Ardène’s and it’s one of my favorites because it’s so comfortable to wear and does not require any ironing. I paired it with black ballet flats and a black wristwatch to give it that Spencer (from Pretty Little Liars) feel.

The next outfit is perfect for a hot summer day. Tucking the top in gives the look a nicer shape.

This is one of my favorite looks for summer:  crop top paired with high-waisted jeans, oxfords and a flower headband. I love the whole bohemian, carnival vibe it exudes!


This next look is what I picked for my Masters graduation ceremony. While the dress was my choice, it was my sister who picked out the necklace to add some contrast. I threw in a pair of black heels with red detail to bring the whole outfit together.

My desire to wear maxi dresses is often challenged by my height (or lack thereof!), but I do manage to find some in my size. The gold headband crown and cardigan give it a Greek goddess feel.

The following look is different from the rest – I decided to go Indian with a traditional churidar in a deep purple.

The lace waterfall skirt in the picture below was hidden away in the back of my closet, so I decided to dig it out and introduce it to some sunlight. I never wore it because I didn’t feel like I had the right top to pair it with. The best part about the skirt is how it perfectly matches my MK rose gold watch with bone pink detail.




Happy styling!
