Spring 2013 Campaign Favorites

My favorite Spring 2013 campaign inspirations derive from a vintage, rock-ability vibe.  I am absolutely in love with the freedom conveyed by these photographic images.  Now get in gear after this winter season... it's time to femininely rock with a splash of color, don't you think?

One of my favorite and inspirational photographers is Ellen von Unwerth.  The above images are what I find to be the varied styles in her photography pieces, depicting a type of classic, vintage grunge in my eyes.  What's most appealing is her keen ability to take any person and transform them into an image of this particular style.  I absolutely love this type of photography and use this inspiration for my own personal style.  These images are for further inspiration into not only the aesthetic appeal, but the edgy yet sensual and strong lifestyle that I personally look for.  I love how these images promote a soft edged outlook with a vintage spin created through the hues and lense.  Love, love, absolutely in LOVE!!!

Let's Get Some Blues UP in HErE!!!!

The weather has been a bomb the past two days with rain and clouds. Definitely not late June weather at all.

Weather really sets up my mood and own sense of style. My basic thought process when it comes to picking out something to wear.... what's the weather? Is it raining?- then no white, is it hot?- then possible shorts or tank, Is it a formal/casual day? Will I be comfortable? Can the outfit transition from day to night if needed? Also, will I be taking public transportation?- related to the type of shoe and non-creeper-driven outfit choice.

Changes in weather, mood, and season all are factors each day. Granted, I'm not going to worry too much over it.

You really can't go wrong with the blues...



Above: Great summer time look. Layers can be worn and patterns don't make you look too busy or heavy. In combination with white clothes, you can also have an easier time picking out different accessories to change up your look from day to night.

Above: Another great casual look bringing dyed shirts and Jean button downs back in style. What's great about this look is how anyone can take these simple elements and make them your own. Think about the type of accessories you want to complete your look. For instance, large and bright neon accessories can make you look more retro, choosing metals and heavy accessories can make a hipster/punk look, or simple stylish accessories can make the look more sophisticated casual. Lastly, don't forget the hair. The type and style of hair completes the look!




Above: This look is a more themed approach. I love the colors and a great loungy Look for when you just want to relax. It's for the lazy days where someone pops on over unexpectedly and you say, "What? Oh really?? I didn't know you were coming and I had this on."




Above : If you want more elegant and summer, this is your look. It's a very feminine approach. Elegant and comfortable without being too fancy, this look can easily go from morning to night without doing much except possibly changing makeup and hair.

The last Bottom two are pretty much self explanatory. I couldn't leave out the hair and spikey lover's. I also had to put in the last one for those deep strict fashion editorial lovers.

This week's Black & White inspiration ...



Desperately need the above..
I am in love with cat eye qualities and I prefer that look on myself just because I can barely make my eyes as big and round as I want to for certain looks. Strong and sensual, it's a great look no matter how fast time flies :)

I continue to go back to this inspiration constantly because you can't go wrong with black and white. They last throughout the ages and are easily put into pattern. Whether it's polka-dots, stripes, or even both, I am in love with how these looks really make you feel glamorous when you incorporate it into your own style.

In Love with the Blues....












Alright, so I didn't realize how many other people tried these looks as well.. But I can't stop loving these hues. I think it goes with so many people and compliments other colors really well. It's like floating in the ocean or seeing the crisp pool water that's just been cleaned. Haha, no.. it's like none of these things...

The Plaza Kvinna May 2012 Photoshoot

Model: Annabella Barber
Photographer: Jaclyn Adams
Stylist: Vass Arvanitis
Makeup: Julie Provis
Hair: Joey Scandizzo


Looks like we're back to floral inspirations that don't involve looking like a Grandmother :) I love this photoshoot due to the fact that florals can really be ageless if you wear them properly. It's all about making your own style and creating fabrics that have rich color. I'm not too fond of pastel florals, but if work the right way depending on the person, maybe it'll work too.

All in all, I think style is whatever you make of it. Anyone who knows me will remember me saying that it's not about what's in style but actually making a style that is your own. I don't believe there is a wrong way to wear things or do's and don'ts because eventually you can break all rules. CONFIDENCE IS KEY!!! I believe that there are also people out there that can truly pull off any style. I guess it's due to the gift of their gene pool...
