Ashbury Skies x Inspirafashion Jeffrey Campbell 'Soiree' Shoe Giveaway!

Editing by me, Photography by Sarah Jehan, Makeup By Audrey De Los Reyes

Black HM dress, Gold necklace via Crossroads Trading, Arm candy: Brown c/o Mimi Boutique leopard bracelet, Silver bracelet via Crossroads Trading, Silver c/o Filthy Magic twin spike bracelet, Black c/o Mimi Boutique purse, Black c/o Ashbury Skies Jeffrey Campbell 'Soiree' heels.

Decided I've always wanted to try out the monochrome, all one color trend.  Why not this time go with all-black.  I love how Sarah played with shadows and light in this shoot, it was really so much fun working with her.  In addition, Audrey did such an amazing job with the makeup, dark smokey eye.

From head-to-toe literally all in black colors, with an accent of silvers and golds in jewelry.  Thought it was a subtle way to kind of offset and add to the all-black look, but not overwhelm it.  I layered a blouse underneath the HM dress, and added this cool structured bag.  And the icing on the cake, were these amazing heels from Ashbury Skies.  Which btw, brings me to the exciting part of this post! ..

Hi Lovelies! I've missed you all so! Ah, first off, I really want to say sorry for the delay of the giveaway, and not updating as much.  It's just there's a lot more going on now, with my new job, as a commuter, I have to wake up every morning 5am! It's craazy, but oh wells, have to learn how to juggle a lot of things.

But onto my day, I actually took an outfit picture at night (bad time of day to take pics), but it's due to just coming back from shopping! successful shopping btw.  Bought clothes for work specifically and a few items just because :). Got two maxi skirts, one pair of slacks, and a parka (for cold weather ahead).  And off the side, got a nice knit cardi, rings, and boots. :). I'm content and happy with my purchases.

So onto the outfit, am wearing my new parka (20$ sale from Charlotte Russe, such a steal) aand my new lovely maxi skirt from F21. I love how it is figure-flattering.  And of course, my NEW JC's!! So, after asking you all your lovely opinions, I decided I really wanted to get the Foxy's. They're just so gorgeous, altho I love the Mary Roks, I felt I needed to get something other than a wedge from JC. So got my very first JC platform high heels, and to make it even lovelier, they're suede! :).

Soo onto the giveaway of celebration of 100+ followers! I wanted to put together a cluster of things to give away, and why not accessories aand my signature lipstick I always use :)! Btw, I'm going to buy the lipstick this week, so the one in the picture is just my lipstick case.  But the one i'll giveaway of course will be new hehe :p.  So here are the items I'm planning to give away to a lucky follower on here and/or a fan or friend from Chictopia :). Accessories AND my sig. lipstick just for you all :), because I seriously appreciate and am so grateful for your following and aamazing support.

Shoe heaven.

LOOKIE what I got in the mail today!!! Ahh, they are so breath-takingly beeautiful. Right away, I had to put these beauties on my feet. And they're oh so comfy and again another successful JC buy. So excited to show you my new JC's in a later post. They're going to be a surprise! for which one I chose ;). And thank you once again for your feedback and fashionable opinions in the last post to help me decide on my next purchase.  Really helped me out in my decision. Btw, strange enough I just love the smell of new shoes lol.

I'm in serious shoe heaven right about now. :)

Haha excuse the Ikea girly sheets, got them so long ago. But I <3 Ikea! :)

And just want to thank and give a big shout out to all of my newest followers and past followers. Ah, you have no idea, I'm so blessed and appreciative of all your support.  There's almost 100!! Soo exciting :). And in celebration of this and my love and appreciation for all of you, I am definitely going to do a giveaway! :).  Can't wait.  Until then, I gotta hit the books and study for my upcoming midterm this Thursday.  After that, I'm coming back with a new outfit post w/ my lovely Jeffrey Campbells :).

PS. to not be even more of a shoe fanatic that I already am..I got two pairs of Forever 21 shoes last week as well. I really decided I needed more browns in my shoe collection. So bought these two :). can't wait for them to come as well.



Now all I need are nude/light pink/beige colors. Hmm, I'm really thinking of getting these :) : Topshop wedges <3.

Love, KC.

Fashion confessions.

Black H&M Hat, Gray Urban Outfitters shorts, Black Jeffrey Campbell oxford wedges shoes, Beige F21 socks, Navy blue thrifted belt, White thrifted bag.

Looved these shorts I found at Urban Outfitters, they have a design on them and they're light gray, on of my favorite colors :). Simple casual outfit for everyday, with a play on the color palette of black, grays, and whites.  Couldn't decide if I wanted the hat on or off, as you can tell, I'm really indecisive lol.

So the beautiful Monica from freesia blog tagged me to confess seven fashion and style secrets. Looved her blog post about it, definitely visit her lovely blog, she's so stylish ;). So onto the fun!

1) I am the messiest person ever when it comes to all my clothes. I feel bad for them sometimes, because I don't  treat them so nicely (lol i know, odd I refer to them almost as pets lol!). I have a HUGE pile of clothes in my room that accumulates as the week goes on -- it's mainly because I have no time whatsoever to even hang them nicely or maybe it's just because I'm so lazy. I vow when I get my first official place, I will have a room dedicated to my clothes, accessories, and shoes. :)

2) Right before I decide on what outfit I wear, I usually go onto various fashion blogs (yes all of your lovely blogs! <3) and Chictopia and diff fashion magazines -- to try and get a sense of what I'm loving at the moment or what stands out to me. Always love to get inspiration from a variety of places for new looks and outfits.

3) For make up, I have the exact and same routine every single day (i know boring lol). But what I do is put on my Bare Escentuals concealer, Elf gel eyeliner, MAC lipliner, and Bare Escentuals lipgloss. Pretty basic. But the funny and ironic thing is I own SO many eyeshadows, yet don't really use them.

4) I aalways always usually use belts whenever I create an outfit. I know we all have our favorite part of the body to accentuate, well for me, that is my waist. I feel belts always tie an outfit together.

5) So I have to confess, when I'm just walking around town or in school, I always "style watch." Sometimes I wish I was part of a fashion magazine and stop girls who I feel are so stylish, just to take their picture and ask them about their personal style.  But I would never do that just out of nowhere, stalkerish? lol. Yep, so my hobby I guess could be called "style watching" or "staring" or "admiring" as people walk by.

6) I am a true shoe and ring fanatic. The first things I look at whenever I see a person's outfit are their shoes! Lol.  I am just starting my shoe collection, but I tend to gravitate toward colors that are neutral.  I really don't own any fun bright colored shoes. The color palette of my shoe collection would be grays, blacks, browns. But I love to play with different textures for my shoes -- leather, suede, even crochet!

7) My last fashion/style secret would be I always find the best accessory to be hair! Haha, i know odd. But, I feel it could make or break an outfit.  I'm really into messy (but not frizzy), long, olsen-like hair. Wish mine were like that sometimes, but yes -- two things I look at mostly first in an outfit would be hair and shoes! Weird combo huh?

Here's one I loove.

Shoe crisis.

Hi lovelies! I have a shoe crisis or dilemma, and i really need your help on deciding because I trust your fashionable opinion & judgment. I'm happily purchasing my next JC's! But I really need help in deciding. I really want a gray pair, BUT I am caught in between two lovely JC pairs. Sigh, I wish I could  buy both. Please help.

Sincerely and love,

KC.

PS. this post will definitely be updated once I'm done with studying (& when i have another break hehe). Love you all so. & want a shout out to my newest followers, thank you so much, appreciate it! am also now following you <3

Okay, so here are the two I can't make up my mind with..

Jeffrey Campbell Foxy Wood

OR..

Jeffrey Campbell Mary Roks

Shoe fever.

May I say, deep down inside, I really am a shoe-aholic. I've been craving over these shoes lately! These are probably the most must-haves on my list, mainly JC shoes :), ever since my Backstage wedges, I'm a loyal fan.

#1, The Topshop Wisteria2 Diamante Wedges.

they are beyond amazing, the wedge for comfort and the beautiful ballerina-esque chiffon to tie up. Pure bliss. <3.

#2, The Jeffrey Campbell Foxy Platform from Nasty Gal Vintage.

They are probably the highest heels i've heard of so far, or am willing to buy..5.5''!! Wow, means i will be 5.9 1/2 inches tall. Heard though these are so comfy in spite of their height. Would look lovely with tights/socks. :)

#3, The JC Lita from Sole Struck.

I've always wanted lace up combat-like boots, and these are an amazing find just for that. Loove the JC platforms so much.

#4, The Jessica Simpson Tito wedge.

Another 5 inch heel, just noticed I really want 5 inch heels, I hope I don't fall in them haha, I'll practice with my current JC's (only 4.75 inches). This is a lovely wedge from Jessica Simpson, and it's a pretty good price, although expensive of course, but its too lovely for words. Love how it wraps around and is leather. 

So, as you can tell, I'm into a lot of neutral and dark colors for shoes, if you saw my starting shoe collection it is just that very color base combo.  One day I will be brave and buy a bright blue or bright red shoe, but until then, I'll be safe and feel confident in these shoes. 

How bout you lovelies? What kind of shoes are you craving for? ;).

Love, KC.
