Hi LOVEs, and happy December!!! <3
You know, exactly a month ago tons of fashion mavens around the world were extremely thrilled to get their hands on the new Alexander Wang x H&M collection, including me, of course! The night before the collection was released, I camped out with my friends from 11pm!!! That's right, I spent  9.5 hours waiting outside, and I wasn't even at the front of the line! Luckily I was there with friends, and one of them lives 5 mins away from the store and another friend brought a tent! I know it sounds crazy, doesn't it? But it was TOTALLY worth waiting such a long time because I was able to pick up what I wanted to, and on today's post I finally can share with you guys my first Alexander Wang x H&M look!!!!

I gotta tell you, this look is by far one of my favorite street fashion outfits of 2014. Even though I've always wanted to own Alexander Wang pieces, I never had a chance before, so I can't thank H&M enough for collaborating with him so that the broader population could get cut-off versions of his clothes! For instance, I am totally obsessed with this white dress that definitely shows his outstanding design! Look at these laser-cut and sheer stripe pattens on the dress! It's so unique yet fashion-forward and polished. The amazing thing about this dress is its versatility... I could wear it as a dress or as a top! I can't wait to style this dress in many different ways, like layering up into an all white look!
For today's look I wanted to go for a grunge street style, so I paired with my favorite JC spike booties, accessorized with silver jewelry and a hologram bag to add some color, then topped it off by wearing a vampy lipstick. These "WANG" sunglasses are just so perfect for this look, and I love them so much! I literally have been carrying these killer ones wherever I go.

Hope you enjoy how I styled my picks from the collection, and please look forward to another AW x H&M collection outfit soon to be published, which also has a street style vibe but in a completely different way!

Have a lovely Tuesday and stay warm!

Hi LOVEs! Happy Monday <3 
How was your weekend? In Seattle, we have been having super nice weather for the last several days and it's been amazingly beautiful, especially when the sun sets. Also we Seattleites are all still super-hyped about the recent Seahawks win against the 49ers that has us headed to Super Bowl!!!! :)
My weekend was pretty nice, too! I had a great day at work, and my friend came over to my place. Our time together was both encouraging and inspiring for both of us. You know, girl talk always helps to cheer me up and get a load off my chest. 
Oh by the way...I can't believe that January is almost over!!  I gotta get those winter styles in before it turns to spring!


How do you feel about wearing an all-gray outfit? To me.... HECK YES!!! If you know me well or have followed me for a long time, you know that I loooooooooove wearing colors!!!! So you might not have guessed that I would got for an outfit that didn't feature lots of bright colors. In fact, I don't think I had ever tried out an all-monotone look before today's outfit. But I must say that it works!
Now, the color of gray isn't a color you might associate with "impact", but it is essential to have some gray basics in your wardrobe such as a sweater, coat, blazer, trousers, hats, or even shoes! If you incorporate it into your outfits you can effortlessly create classic and sophisticated looks. You can even update your outfits by adding a touch of gray, as well! I believe that you've seen tons of fashionistas/fashionistos in the world wearing grays throughout the last year, and they fashionably manged to style them! I was completely fascinated and inspired by how well they dressed in grays, and I really wanted to add the color to my ensemble. Boom! Here is what I have achieved!!

I can't help but saying I love this look so much! I put it together with basic items. However, the whole outfit shows the power of gray! This awesome long knit jacket from NOWiSTYLE is one of my favorites this season! It's incredibly warm and so trendy!! Due to my short height, I am kind of hesitant to wear long-length clothes, but this is a total exception! You know what I meant?! I completed the look pairing these Charlotte Russe spiked lace-up booties (These are crazy, aren't they?), ebay a fringed leather bag, and H&M mirror aviator sunglasses to give a touch of that 'rock star' vibe.. 
The monochromatic looks are still going strong in 2014; I can't wait to rock them in my spring looks! In addition to that, I am completely excited to buy some pastel clothes and accessories to prepare for spring and combining them with gray! I already know what to purchase! hehe 


Have a great week sweeties! ♥
