I'm currently obsessed over printed tees with a vintage feel. I've been really drawn to that worn-out look, whether it's acid washed, distressed, or slouchy. I either shop at the men’s section or get a medium (or even a large) size at the women’s section. I always go for an oversized look because I like to get comfortable on most days, especially with the summer weather starting to creep in. I found this tee at Zara and fell in love—it pretty much has all the details said above, and the best part is, it’s Power Rangers! Totally giving me all the 90’s vibe. I’m sharing some of my favorite t-shirt styles below:

The warmer days of fall has got me weary. I’m impatiently waiting for the colder days to come because let’s face it, we’re over the heat and cannot wait to wear layers, knits and more! Until then, the sleeveless trench will be our best friend. It’s an outerwear piece that allows much breathing room and puts your whole look together! I got these cream high-waisted skinnies a while ago and thought it would look great with the ivory coat. I'm loving the major boss babe vibes in this outfit overall!

The summer heat is here and I find myself wanting to wear nothing but my bodysuits and a good pair of jeans. What drew me to this bodysuit is the unusual cut on the chest area; it gives a tasteful reveal for the itty bitties. I also love the choker detail it has since I’m so obsessed with them right now. Felt so effortlessly badass with these raw-edged mom jeans, and added a great pair of minimal heels to finish off the look.

City Chic with Cluse

Time is of the essence.

Cluse is an essential timepiece in my lifestyle. It gets me through the busiest of days, timing every second to help me reach my goals—big or small.

When my day is fully booked with meetings and shoots, my Cluse watch helps me keep track of time without other distractions (for example, I would end up going on an Instagram rampage if I was to check the time on my phone). It helps me meet my deadlines, which is crucial when it comes to working with a variety of brands.

Its simplicity keeps me focused, and completes my look overall. Its sophisticated in its own way, with an elegance that enhances my style. Simply put, my Cluse watch brings out the best in me both internally and externally.

White Out

I'm the typa gal that appreciates geometric shapes. This white dress is beautifully lined and cut that shows some skin but not revealing much, thanks to the net-like material that covers the arm and chest area. It makes a statement with the bold design, and the white hue gives it a classy vibe. One of my favorite statement necklaces from Zara goes well with this piece because it also has a geometric design in this vintage-y boho piece dresses up the look. I'm wearing the cutest pair of one strap, black and white heels that I got from a while back and I just love how it contrasts. Oh, and did you notice my retro sunnies? It makes the look more sophisticated than it is, but I love going over the top sometimes. Ha! Enjoy loves :)

Where Street Style Meets High Fashion

 “An easy-to-wear Los Angeles wardrobe with a slight edge.”

– Alexandria Norman, Founder and Designer of Bellen Brand.

I’ve teamed up with Bellen Brand and officially became a #BellenBae, whose style is unapologetic with an attitude. I am obsessed with their aesthetic. The perfect mix of sporty and chic that is ultimately street. Bellen Brand prides itself as a representation of LA style that is diverse and eclectic. It’s where street style meets high fashion.

I’m all about fashion, but I’m also all about comfort. Being in Bellen Brand feels like a cloud. The soft textures and superior fit, with an impeccable style and taste. I loved every single piece that they sent me! They were also kind enough to give my followers a 15% off discount with the code "PAU15"

The Long-sleeve Pico Open Back Dress is the epitome of sexy but warm. It gives you the option to not look dull and boring in the LA wintertime. The rib knit material is light and soft, and the fit is a bit loose and extremely comfy.

I incorporated my edgy style to this look and kept it all black, with a variety of accessories to keep the look interesting. My chained and quilted backpack was the excellent match for that sexy back. It screams utmost chic, and very affordable with my code "PAU20" for 20% off along with other Salsit products ;)Long-sleeve Pico Open Back Dress from Bellen Brand / Chained Backpack from Salsit / Hat from Forever 21 / Sunnies from zeroUV / Necklace from Outerbridge / Shoes from Urban Outfitters

The Long-sleeve Zip-front Top is a Fall/Winter staple, paired with the Zip Pencil Skirt that is absolutely flattering for every figure - it highlights your curves. Both pieces have a rose gold zipper detail that makes them out-of-this-world. I kept it simple because I want all the attention on the little details.

The Temple Tee Long-sleeve Dress is one of Bellen Brand’s signatures and also available on Nasty Gal. I felt like Solange in this number. Remember her wedding dress and that epic wedding photo with her family?

The pure white color and fabric overload makes it looks so elegant. I added some gold accents like a gold necklace and gold-heeled shoes from Zara. This set was my last shoot of the year with my resident photographer Allen Chen (@aybce). It’s only been three months since I launched my blog but I learned a lot from him. I am definitely thankful and blessed for all his help and being a part of this journey with me.

Til next time!

Plunge In

Hi everyone! So, I have this thing with plunging necklines lately.

Being a part of the itty-bitty committee, I can gracefully flaunt my chest area with plunging necklines. It makes me feel very bold and risqué, and I don’t even have to show much. I’m also not the type to like or wear girly colors (or any color for that matter), but I fell in love with this mauve color on the Melina Romper. Tobi is one of my online destinations for dressy occasions because you will find something you'll love, no doubt. They have a whole ton of styles and colors to choose from! Variety is always good. I love rompers and the style is flirty without being too girly. The color is a perfect mixture of powder pink and lilac, and the texture makes the color even more soft and feminine. I paired it with a silver coin necklace from Forever 21 and hologram strapped heels from Zara to give more edge and glam. Enjoy!
