Sweetheart.

Black Obey hat, Black Urban Outfitters moto jacket, Red c/o Nectar Clothing bag, Black c/o Inlovewithfashion.com dress, Black Steve Madden heels, Arm party: Oxblood gifted Kurt Geiger bracelet, Silver c/o Filthy Magic spike bracelet, Silver ring via Crossroads Trading.

I always gravitate toward dresses that have a unique wow factor to them, and this one definitely makes that list.  I love how this Inlovewithfashion.com dress, has sheer sleeves with a sweet-heart cut-out top.  To add to the red floral color, decided to style it with the Nectar Clothing sporty bag.  And I'm all about accessories, so added my favorite Obey hat, to add that cool sporty factor.  To keep it dressy, paired the outfit with strappy heels.

Also, wanted to let you know, Inlovewithfashion.com is giving Inspirafashion readers a 25% discount on your next online order with minimum purchase of $50.  Enter 'Inspirafashion25' at checkout.  Happy shopping lovelies!

I've been so so busy these past few weeks, apologize for the hiatus lovelies.  It being the end of the year with holidays and everything at work, I'm always grateful for the free-time given to me.  Some exciting news though, about a week ago, I worked with amazing SF designer, Alyssa Nicole on styling her Spring '13 lookbook! Can't wait to share the result of the shoot! Also, she's running a sweet giveaway to win the Oxblood Pleated Skirt, be sure to enter here! Show off your Polyvore skills ;).

Hope you Beautifuls are doing well!!  Just wanted to say, thanks so much for your support on my blog, it means the world <3 .=".">

Teal peplum top via Crossroads Trading, Gold vintage Chanel brooch, Oxblood gifted Kurt Geiger bracelet, Gold necklace via Crossroads Trading, Wine c/o Hobo The Original 'Zara' bag, Dark blue c/o Nectar Clothing high-waisted acid wash jeans, Brown leopard Zara heels.

I usually pair peplum tops with high-waisted skirts, but thought why not high-waisted jeans this time?  The result was a cool mix of classy with edgy from these acid wash skinnies from Nectar Clothing.  I adore the peplum top's unique teal color as well, another color I love this Fall.  I can't get enough of leopard print too.  The sweetest part of the outfit is this clutch from Hobo The Original, perfect for fitting all my necessary things when I'm in a rush to go out.

Metal remix.

Tan Forever 21 scallop lace top, Blue vintage Levis shorts, Black vintage Dooney Bourke bag, Bracelets: Rose gold watch via ebay, Red/gold c/o Nectar Clothing feather braid bracelet, Gold ASOS spike, Rose gold HM cuff, Black Urban Outfitters Kimchi Blue wedges.

Decided I've missed dressing up with boho influences and getting inspired by the beautiful Nicole Richie (which btw, have you seen her on Fashion Star, just wish it was about her outfits ;P).  For this outfit I definitely had fun mixing metals (altho a fashion don't, I decided it'd be cool to mix..anyways, fashion's about experimenting and having fun!).  Rose gold is starting to become my absolute fave metal -- there's always something very luxurious about it.  Paired it off with gold essentials from ASOS and thee cutest feather charm bracelet from Nectar Clothing.  It even has a small message "Be Happy" on the end of it.

I got this blouse from Forever 21, which may I say was so gravitated toward it bc of #1 sheer, #2 scallop detail, and #3 lace..all features I love in a great top.

Happy Saturday lovelies! Hope you're enjoying the sun!

Minty fresh.

Light pink HM blazer, Mint ASOS double collar top, Lilac c/o Nectar Clothing jean shorts (DIY studs), Ivory vintage Chanel purse, Silver c/o LYLIF claw ring, Silver F21 and Crossroads rings, Silver c/o Maya Brenner leather tie bracelet, Vintage watch, Tan Steve Madden Grettta heels.

As you can probably tell, I have a case of pastel craze!  I love mixing unique colors together, it's like painting -- but with clothes! ;)  Mint, lilac, blush -- all very fave colors for this Spring.  The ASOS double collar top is my all-time fave -- reminds me so much of Louis Vuitton S/S '12 collection.  Lilac jean shorts from Nectar Clothing are such a great candy color, thought it'd be so cool to stud them just a touch with silver ones :).  Yay for DIYs!  And the absolutely aamazing silver claw ring from LYLIF adds that extra contrast of edginess to this sweet outfit.  Definitely rec to check out more amazing trendy jewelry from LYLIF!

How have you lovelies been?! I wanna apologize for the lack of posts last week, omg the weather here in the Bay Area has been insane.  Taking photos outside has been delayed mainly due to the rain.  But I am very happy the sun has come back!  Also, work and school has been quite hectic!  I cannot believe my eyes that there's just about one more month left of being a student at Cal.  It hasn't really hit me yet that I'm leaving this beautiful inspiring campus..but I know it will soon.  My ultimate plan is my very last day to go up Campanile..and just scream of happiness I'm done. OK, maybe not that extreme but I'll prob just quietly stare out into the sunset, contemplating of what exciting things lie ahead, symbolic ;).

Have a lovely week ahead Beautifuls!!  Keep inspiring!

Bohemian coral.

Coral organza lace dress c/o Nectar Clothing, Tan HM fringe bag, Red earrings c/o Pree Brulee, Bracelets: Gold vintage wrist watch, Gold vintage belt bracelet via Diament designs, Candy pink rhinestone friendship via miravera, Spike ASOS, Orange silk wrap via TINNLILY, Beige Sam Edelman sandals.

So this has to be the most fun colored dress I have -- I simply adore the bright coral color, very candy-sweet for Spring time :).  I also love the lace detail on top, definitely check out Nectar Clothing's collection of dresses, they're so perfect for Spring!  Since it was dressy already, thought I'd dress it down with my new Sam Edelman sandals (which btw, have this gorgeous metallic detail in the heel) and with my fringe HM bag (it hasn't had any love for such a long time ;p).  Arm party happening with all bright colors to accent the dress.  Lastly, the red earrings from Pree Brulee adds the sweetest touch -- I don't usually wear earrings but these were so adorable!

Spring break is next week!!  All I gotta say is, FINALLY..a much-needed break!  I am about to enjoy the sun, visit the beach maybe and have park lunch-dates with my love.  Btw, first day of Spring was few days ago!  Happy Spring lovelies ;).
