Re-purposed Maxi

How much do I love maxi skirts (and dresses)? Let me count thee ways... 1 - they're comfortable, 2 - they're stylish, 3 - they are easy to re-wear! Today's look is a repurposed version of the same maxi skirt you've seen me style here. Coral is easily one of my favorite colors to wear. It adds a pop of color to an outfit without being too loud.

Top: Shein (less than $10!) 
Skirt: old 
Sandals: AMI Clubwear (c/o)

This Best Dressed tee is from Shein, by the way. I've scored a ton of great deals from this website and this shirt is just one of them. I bought it for less than $10! To add some edgy twist to the look, my gladiator sandals from AMI Clubwear is my choice of footwear. These three pieces are such good investments - they can easily be mixed and matched with other pieces. The good thing about each item is that they can act as a focal or accent piece in an outfit.

It's a Wrap!

Dress: Shein
Bag: Kate Spade
Necklace: Shein
Watch: JORD (c/o)
Sandals: AMIClubwear (c/o)

This dress... I don't even know where to start. I've had this on my wishlist for so long and to finally get it and to see just how beautiful it is, I was more than elated. I do have the tendency to get turned off when I see items that are styled by way too many bloggers. But with this one, I just couldn't resist the temptation. I've also been into wrap dresses a lot lately so it was a no-brainer when I scratched this off my wishlist.

I did not want to overdo when styling this dress because I think the dress makes the statement for itself. The layered gold necklace from Shein added the right hint of glam while the gladiator sandals added contrast by infusing some edge to the whole outfit. These sandals would definitely work great with the dress for everyday wear but I can also wear the dress with a dressier pair of shoes for a more glam outfit. That's something to consider for another style inspiration post in the future. As if you need more coaxing to get this dress from Shein, it's available for less than $21!

Are you into wrap dresses too?

Retro + Kate Spade

Even though I was born in the 80's, I have always been intrigued by retro style. The flashing and vibrant colors, the obnoxious patterns, and all that jazz screams fun in all the right ways! Hence, I was inspired to opt for a retro look with a modern spin in today's look! 

Dress: old / Sandals: AMI Clubwear (c/o) / Tote: Kate Spade / Cardigan: Lixmee (c/o) / Sunglasses: For Me

If you can remember this neon dress, I've already styled it here. Today, I added a fun mix of accessories to transform a simple neon dress into a retro chic outfit. This grey cardigan from Lixmee is a new addition in my closet. I got it specifically for the fact that I needed a new cardigan that can be easily mixed and matched with other pieces in my closet. Meanwhile, the Mini Harmony Tote from Kate Spade has been on my wishlist for such a long time. It took me a while to contemplate whether it was worth splurging on. But I bought it around Christmas time so I considered this purchase a gift for myself. 

For some more retro touch, I added the pink sunglasses and gladiator sandals from AMI Clubwear into the  mix!

What do you think of retro style: yay or nay?
