You can never go wrong with the basics and a pop of color! The softly distressed, dark-wash jeans and white t-shirt paired with sandals and a scarf make it incredibly versatile. Wear it in the office, a day at the park, or for a summer night out. The little lime peek-a-boo's give the neutral look a bit of diversity to keep it eye-catching!

The season is not over and for us girls out there it can be extremely difficult to find a cute, affordable swimsuit that fits our individual body types. Luckily I have finally found the perfect place to buy cute and reasonably priced swimwear for the sunny days! J. Crew. Who would've guessed, right? Maybe this isn't a secret after-all to some of you.. But I never thought about going there for cute and modest swimsuits! I figured they would have a selection about as good as Hollister.... One-Piece suits are definitely hot this Summer. Here are a few of my top picks! The Jersey Lomellina metal-trim bandeau tank (Pictured in the color "Earth".) This style comes in 5 different colors. Doesn't it look like a lighter colored swimsuit verion of Selena Gomez's dress in her "A Year Without Rain" Video!? **Ohh.. Ya know.. Just a random picture** Keep it sweet and classic with this Seersucker Banded Underwire Tank in either blue or neon peach! I really love this one. It's just so timeless and fits the body just right. Make a splash in bold colors! Here is the J. Crew Italian Matte Tie-Front Tank. You can choose from 6 fun colors to lay pool-side. I absolutely love the criss-cross tie design! Or cover up with these adorable Paisley Liberty Harajuku Board Shorts I love these. So. Much. And last, but not least, is the J.Crew Mini-Geo Halter Tank. A GREAT choice for a patterned style or if you're looking for an aztec vibe. Now that the middle of Summer is approaching, you can finally rock that summer body in something both cute AND flattering!
Just keep swimming! Alyssa The long, 4th of July weekend is over and it's back to work. Hopefully everyone had a great time over the holiday break!
Here is the look I wore. Overalls: Wet Seal Pink Plaid Shirt: American Eagle Ford Ball Cap: Walmart Boots: Forever Young Shoes Sunglasses: Maurices And of course, to top it off, a Ford Mustang Convertible. ;) Have a fun and safe week! xo, Alyssa Basic Bun How-To:
And there you have it! The cute, messy bun! Perfect for hot summer days at the pool or in the office!
Til next time, Peaches! Alyssa Those Valentino shoes. Or that Louis Vuitton bag. Maybe it's your absolute favorite dress from Nordstrom. Who says you can't have them?! I am here to help you create the perfect closet space for your DREAM wardrobe. So let's get on with it! 1. Clean Your Room!
I don't want to sound like your naggy mother... But seriously. Clean your room. It will give you space to lay out your clothes and will motivate you to finish the job. 2. Get Organized! Classify each individual section of your closet. This means skirts/dresses, shirts, pants, jewelry, etc. Seperate your basic staples (white tee's, tank tops, etc.) from your wardrobe now so that they can be incorporated into several outfits later... 3. Make some $$! What to do with the clothes you no longer want: A. Give to the D.I or Salvation Army B. Sell online C. Have a yard sale D. Give to friends and family But please, PLEASE do not throw them away unless they are damaged or gross. Someone else could use them out there, somewhere, I'm sure. 4. Decide Which Clothes To Keep and HOW! A. Does it fit? B. Does it flatter my figure? C. Is the Cut, Color, Fabric, etc. flattering? D. Would I re-buy? Do I love it? E. Will I wear it? Does it fit my "style"? 5. THE FUN PART!! You can either go splurge on a shopping spree the old fashioned way girls go shopping... Or save up and slowly integrate new pieces into your wardrobe over time. Either way, eventually you will have all of the clothes you love and a style you've always wanted. Good luck on your adventure creating your new and fabulous wardrobe! Til next time, Peaches! Alyssa Aaaaand.. Here it is. The latest color palette trend, a mix of dusty blue hues with gold accents! We have seen this color all over since we saw Lupita Nyong'o hit the red carpet dawning a pale blue gown for the Oscars. Powder blue is a refreshing twist in fashion that complements all skin tones, hair/eye colors, etc. It can be used it accessories.. Here is an adorable pale blue, ruched clutch that can be found on Etsy here. Something blue..... Keep a bright and open space using hints of blue hues in throw pillows, chairs, dishes or whatever else you can think of around the house! Or implement it into an office space or bedroom... And who wouldn't want pale blue hair like Aliso-- I mean, Sasha Pieterse. ;) What blue inspiration do you have? Let me know in the comments how you use pale blues in your wardrobe, home, accessories, etc. :)
See ya soon, Peaches! Alyssa If you're looking for the perfect pop of color this summer, look no further!
Every one has those times where they just need a little pep to perk up the longer days. Pair neutrals with a red pout and pucker up! You could opt for an LBD to hit the town on a summer night or keep it classic with some white or neutral colored jeans and blouse. The red lipstick I am wearing is called Ruby Woo by MAC Cosmetics. It is generally a very universal color and complements a variation of skin tones, hair/eye colors, etc. The lipstick itself is very matte, so I topped it off with the MAC clear gloss to give it a bold and defined shine. The lacey bow black dress and round diamond stud earrings are from Kohl's. This dress is perfect for SOOO many occassions. Definitely a good buy. And last but not least, the shoes! These heels have a tiny, grey bow on the backs of them that aren't pictured (sorry!) and are so incredibly adorable! They are from JustFab.com! Hope you're all having a great summer and have even more fun spicing things up in your wardrobe! Good luck, Peaches! Alyssa (Photo Cred: Capture the Moon Photography)
Summer is here and so are all of the Summer dresses that come with the warm weather! I sported a turquoise dress that I got at a huge steal from Ross! It was my first time shopping there and they have a lot of basic sundresses that you can dress up with lots of accessories. With this particular dress I paired it with gold accents. I incorporated a gold set of earrings and a sparkly gold belt to really pull it together and give it shape at the waist. A pair of leopard flats keep it stylish and a bit casual for a stroll in the park or out with friends with out being too glitzy and over dressed! I kept it classy with some white sunglasses from Maurice's and my favorite accessory.. My gold watch from Michael Kors. Til next time, Peaches!
