Bohemian crystals.

White c/o AKIRA lace dress, Tan c/o Hobo The Original Candis bag, Light pink Sam Edelman Georgina sandals, Silver ASOS collar necklace, Rings: Crossroads, F21, silver claw ring c/o LYLIF, Bracelets: Silver ebay, vintage, friendship bracelet via miravera.

I've been inspired lately by one of my ultimate style icons, Nicole Richie -- ever since seeing her on Fashion Star, been reacquainted with her amazing style..a la boho chic meets feminine and edgy.  This lace dress from AKIRA is so beautiful, and may I say, super versatile!  It can also be worn as a cardigan..I can already tell this will be worn a lot this summer.

Thought I'd have fun with accessories -- one being my all-time favorite so far, these Sam Edelman sandals are gorgeous beyond words..the studs are my fave part of course.  Decided to play off the silver hardware with my rings and bracelets.

Wispy white.

Blue vintage Tommy Hilfiger jean jacket, Gray Brandy Melville knit sweater, White Brandy Melville dress, Brown vintage Coach purse, Tan Mark Report suede boots, Ivory bold ruler ring c/o Beginning Boutique, Gold HM necklace, Orange silk wrap bracelet via TINNLILY.

I've been on a search for the perfect loosely-fitted white dress for summertime, and finally found it with a visit to Brandy Melville this past weekend at Walnut Creek.  Which btw, the weather was AMAZING..90 degrees, and I looved it ;)..I think I was made to live in this kinna weather.

Well these photos however do not depict that, unfortunately in Berk Sunday there was this strange cloud hovering over the city -- which is why my jean jacket popped in the photo last min lol. But the bf and I decided anyways to explore 4th street!

Decided to go comfy casual, and color detox much? :P, sometimes you need those kind of days.  One day I wanna try make-up detox...not wearing makeup for like an entire weekend -- which is a lot for me, I practically wear makeup every day!  Also, off topic -- surprisingly these photos are from my iPhone!  I was surprised at the quality, sometimes it's cool to take blog pics with it and to not haul around my heavy Nikon on outings :).

Anyways, hope you lovelies are doing well! and had a fantastic weekend!  Keep inspiring Beautifuls!

P.S. I have a final project for my last Psychology statistics class at UC Berkeley (I'm graduating in less than a month!), and would love if you can help me complete it by taking this quick online survey:  https://qtrial.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_bq2KF0JBfhFRFpW It's very relatable, about Twitter and Facebook use! Thanks lovelies a bunch if you can!

P.S.x2 The amazing Disco Pony giveaway I'm hosting on my blog ends this week: Thursday, 4/26!!  Be sure to enter to win the Natalie dress and jumper version! Enter HERE.

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!

Floral edge.

Black/silver c/o LYLIF Clothing curb chain necklace, Grey basic tee, Bracelets: silver vintage, ivory F21, silver c/o Maya Brenner leather tie bracelet, Black purse c/o Chictopia via Mimi Boutique, Floral HM trousers, Black Zara heels.

It seems like it's been a while since I've worn very dark colors, decided to create this edgy look with these oh so beautiful trousers I got from HM.  The black accents: Mimi Boutique bag (closest thing I can afford before I get the real Celine :p) and Zara heels.  I felt perfect addition to this edgy outfit would be the LYLIF chain necklace.  If you haven't checked out LYLIF yet, they have a great collection of trendy jewelry for this spring!

Half way to the weekend!!! This week few exciting things happened, picked up my cap & gown (cannot believe it's less than a month away!), the sun finally returned in Berk (no more thunder storms! ;p), and past weekend, I got to hang out & share laughs w/ the lovely Nat from La Vagabond Dame for brunch.  So thought I'd share a few of my instagram posts to sum up everything above ;P.

Have a lovely rest of your week Beautifuls!

P.S. Check out the sweetest blog spotter feature of Inspirafashion on CocoKouture Magazine!

Neon highlights.

White HM sheer blouse, Orange neon necklace via JenHoodenpyle, Purple chevron skirt c/o Beginning Boutique, Ivory vintage Chanel clutch, Bracelets: Ivory pyramid F21, Gold spike ASOS, Orange wrap bracelet via TINNLILY, ASOS suede boots.

Another obsession of mine for this Spring is definitely neon jewelry!  I am loving how they add just enough spark to an outfit -- here especially makes my stark white blouse more interesting with the gorgeous neon hand-painted necklace via JenHoodenpyle.  I decided to also continue the orange jewelry trend with TINNLILY wrap bracelet.  

This skirt is aaamazing from Beginning Boutique..it first caught my eye because it so reminded me of Missoni -- the zig zag chevron pattern and interesting color palette.  In addition, it has this little hint of metallic threads in it as well.
