Hi LOVEs! It's finally FriYAY!
I don't know whether or not my new hair color affects how I decide which clothes I wanna wear, but I feel like I am so into girly styles lately. Similarly, when I had side-shaved my hair, I was completely obsessed with more of an edgy style.  If you're a sucker for colored hair like I am, I wonder does that happen to you as you switch up the colors?
When Fevrie sent me this cute floral print sweater ( really sad to say that this piece is an exclusive item  which is cannot be bought :( ), I came up with this ensemble in a second. Chic and cute! Floral pints continue to grow in popularity for this spring/summer, and wearing gray for spring is still fun and in style. So this sweater is perfectly divine! Especially when I simply want to throw on a piece and don't wanna wear anything on top of it. Although I initially wanted go with the same color family from head to toe, unfortunately I don't own any gray pair heels. So I picked these cute sky-high platform heels. I am actually pleased with how these shoes give me more height and elongate my legs. Plus adding a black fringed bag to match these heels really helps balance the whole look. As for jewelry, these Rocksbox earrings and Petite Sesame necklace has been in heavy rotation. (Use "aikasloveclosetxoxo" to get your first month of jewelry FREE!) I appreciate we can finally celebrate showing off lovely accessories more as it gets warmer!

Happy Monday my LOVEly readers!!!!
How have you been? I hope you guys have been great as always!
I know the last time I blogged was more than a week ago... :( I really wanted to blog because I have a lot of outfits I am eager to share, yet my Japanese friend came visit me for a week all the way from Japan!!! I'd had SO MUCH FUN with her ;) She was a friend from high school, and we both were on the tennis team. However, we weren't in that close relationship. Wasn't it so sweet of her to fly over here to see me, though? I couldn't stop crying as she was about to enter the gate at the airport. I was greatly happy to see her because she has been supporting my fashion for a very long time!! Even though I love America so much, her visiting really made me miss all of my Japanese friends!!!! haha

I believe that this outfit will be my last 'summer look'. In the previous post, I mentioned that I received a great care package from Charlotte Russe. Most of the clothes I am wearing in this outfit consists of the pieces from the care package: Leopard Body-con Dress, Denim Vest, and Skull Print Scarf.

I am so in love with these clothes!!! It's really hard to tell, but the leopard body-con dress comes in ponte knit fabric with sheer mesh insets at the sides, back and shoulder. I should have taken a picture without the vest so that you know what I am talking about, but you can check the actual dress HERE in CR online site. Just like the picture shows, I can wear it as a rock and casual style while I could wear it for nights out or girls night, mixing it up with a pair of fancy heels and a pop of red lips. Or I can style it up as a skirt with layering over a chunky knit/sweater, which could be a great fall/winter look.

This denim vest is a very nice piece, too. I really like the camouflage print details at the shoulders because it makes dissimilar to other regular denim vests. The denim vest is such a versatile item... If you have already one and wore it already in summer, don't forget to transform it to a fall look. It can be worn in many ways. Like wearing over a sleeve shirt either check or plain one. You can mix it up with a fall dress and hoodie. Also, wear it with a denim jacket for creating a denim-on-denim look, one of the trends this fall/winter.

The last Charlotte Russe piece I am wearing in this outfit is Skull Print Scarf. 

I have really wanted to own any skull print stuff but had never had a chance to find my ideal one. So when I got this awesome skull scarf, I was so excited! It's nice when you wear it as a scarf, but it's also cute when you use it as an accent just like how I did it for this look!!!!


Hope you like/love how I style up these awesome Charlotte Russe pieces!
