Free fall.

Brown Ecote vest via Urban Outfitters, White Zara striped top, Gray F21 skirt, Ivory c/o Mimi Boutique satchel, Black Via Spiga sandal heels (one with similar style), Gold vintage watch, 'K' initial bracelet via UO, Coach rings, Black Brandy Melville wishbone bracelet.

This is my take on transitioning from Summer to Fall, layering with this oh so cute Ecote vest found at UO as well as adding all the neutral brown and ivory colors.  Summer is still with me bc I can't get enough of wearing sandals -- I found these gorgeous Via Spiga sandal heels at Nordstrom Rack recently.  Luck was on my side bc it was just my first time ever shopping there!  They remind me of minimal Celine sandals I could never afford :P, but best & most fun part about shopping is finding similar items to the ones you covet the most ;).

Lastly, this satchel from Mimi Boutique is so chic, I love the pretty braid detail and shape of the bag, not to mention it has so many compartments for a lot of things I need to carry around.

Hope you lovelies are doing well!  Time flies, and can't believe September is almost here already!  My birthday is coming up soon! :) I'm not too sure yet of what to do, after turning 21, 22 doesn't seem so exciting haha -- well will need to live up to it ;).  Or maybe just have a fun girls day/night out, shopping, bar hopping, nails done, sleepover, lol -- and this is just a peek at my thought process ;p.

Have a nice rest of the week Beautifuls!

♥, Kathleen.

    

La vie en rose.

Tan HM sweater, Pink c/o One Rad Girl LA lace shorts via Bollare, Black Ray-Ban aviators, Brown HM fringe purse, Arm Candy: Orange c/o LuLus watch, Brown c/o LUXLA leather hex nut bracelet, Pink/green c/o Hardcouture skull bracelet, Ivory gold c/o Beginning Boutique ring, White Urban Outfitters sandals (similar one).

Comfort is probably a big part of my style, and this outfit sums it up perfectly.  My comfort zone has anything to do with shorts, in particular I adore these ones from One Rad Girl LA -- the bright pink lace and track short silhouette just make it fun, easygoing, and super cuuute ;).

Getting in touch with the bohemian side of things again too.  This fringe purse was tucked away in my closet, it needed love once again :).  Few new items have also made their way into my wardrobe:  my new Ray Bans and these simple yet sleek UO sandals (been craving a plain white pair, perfect to go with anything).

How have you lovelies been doing?  I'm so excited to share with you so many exciting things to happen with my blog, can't wait to share with you all!!  And just another snippet of little things currently happening in my life, am saving up for a future trip to one day visit France!  I know it may be far away but getting bit closer to sipping mon cafe sur la rue de Paris. :)

Hope you have a fantastic relaxing weekend ahead!  Continue to inspire always.

♥, Kathleen.

    

Rise & shine.

Black Obey hat, Blue vintage Levis denim vest, Ivory c/o Black Sheep Clothing via ShoutPR lace scallop hem dress, Ivory vintage Chanel purse, Gold c/o Beginning Boutique bold ruler ring, Arm Candy:  Brown c/o The Brooklyn Bakery vintage leather cuff, Brown c/o LUXLA hexnut bracelet, Urban Outfitters 'K' Bracelet; Printed c/o Pink & Pepper heels.

I love having fun putting together outfits especially creating a kind of irony together, mixing tomboy and girly together, with heels and lace with denim vest and obey hat -- it just adds something intriguing to an outfit.

With the arm candy, decided to keep it all neutral -- this vintage leather cuff from The Brooklyn Bakery is so pretty esp with the gold coin button detail.  The Pink & Pepper heels are one of my faves bc I've always wanted to try out the tribal print trend, and why not now with heels?  Lastly, wanted to layer my levis vest over this Black Sheep Clothing lace dress, which is gorgeous with the scallop hem and intricate crochet design.

Hope you loves have a great week ahead!!  Keep inspiring Beautifuls <3 .="." p="p">

Fall hearts.

Light grey c/o Black Sheep Clothing striped top via ShoutPR, Gold HM necklace, Brown F21 leopard belt, Burgundy American Apparel skirt, Tan c/o Hobo The Original cross body bag, Black Comme Des Garcons sneakers.

Hi there Beautifuls! I'm really happy to be back, the hiatus was due again to long long work hours and moved out all of my stuff from my Berk apartment just recently.  Things have been crazy busy, but now am happy that I'm able to take more photos for ze blog.  It's a balancing act and trying hardest to make sure everything gets equal love :).

This outfit is a great way of transitioning from summer to spring, can you believe August is already here? times flies. Decided to make this super comfy and soft striped top from Black Sheep Clothing into a kind of dress by belting it over my AA corduroy skirt.

Channeling the fall colors already, browns, reds, and grays. & keeping the comfort with my Comme des Garcons sneaks. I think for this fall I've become reacquainted with my love for sweaters (last fall, I went overboard and bought about way too many for my own good ;p).

----

So this past weekend, had a lot of firsts, went to Dolores Park in sf, watched a free movie in the park (Sixteen Candles, ahh jake ryan lol), ate pizza from Delfina, among other really amaazing sweet things :). Hope you had a great weekend loves!

Keep inspiring and have a wonderful start of the week!! <3>

♥, Kathleen.

    

Peace.

Pink floral blouse c/o Sheinside, Brown F21 leopard belt, Blue American Apparel jean shorts, Black thrifted purse, Silver vintage watch, Blue Give Hope bracelet c/o Urban Natures, Gold hamsa hand earrings c/o Hardcouture, Tan Zara sandal heels.

This is a very peaceful zen type of outfit -- cherry blossoms, hamsa hand, Give Hope bracelet..think I see a theme here. I tend to do that accidentally with putting together pieces -- a subliminal thing (I should know though, being a just graduated Psych major ;P).  

I recently was so inspired by Olivia Palermo.  This picture says it all.  Her mix of floral and leopard is impeccable, and here was my take on it.

I thought of playing off the colors with the light blue "Give Hope" bracelet by Urban Natures.  The bracelet has a beautiful message behind it.  UN gives 15% of its profit to aid children in need throughout impoverished regions around the world.  Definitely very notable on bringing together fashion and gift of giving.

This past week has been very busy but getting hang of things.  Lots of changes are happening in my life right now, but I feel for the better.  From my previous post, I'm too getting better :).  Thanks so much loves for all your kind words.

Hope you'll have a lovely rest of your weekend Beautifuls!!  Keep inspiring.

♥, Kathleen.

    

Blossoming.

Black Blossoming top c/o Nanette Lepore, Brown Urban Outfitters pants, Black thrifted chain purse, Gold chain ring c/o Hardcouture, Gold honeycomb cuff c/o Urban Natures, Black Zara heels.

Hi lovelies! I've missed you so, and want to apologize for the hiatus as work has been crazy busy past few weeks, just trying to get into a routine of things.  Thank you for being patient and very happy to be back with a post!

This outfit would be my go-to for weekends -- laid-back yet fun.  I love wearing cross body purses, they just instantly make an outfit more intriguing, especially if it has a cool chain like this one I recently found at a thrift store.  Now onto one of the most inspiring pieces of my wardrobe, this floral silk top by Nanette Lepore is beyond gorgeous.  The details of the print and lace appliqué make the top out of this world beautiful.
Decided to accessorize with gold, Hardcouture's cute chain rings add edge and the perfect addition of some arm candy with the gold honeycomb cuff from Urban Natures.

 For those in the US, have an amazing 4th of July everyone!  Hope you enjoy all the fireworks ;).
Keep inspiring Beautifuls!

♥, Kathleen.
