There’s a school of thought that separates fashion into “high” and “everyday” (or ready to wear). I don’t really apply to that school, our lives are spent in the everyday, so why not wear what makes you happy? And loves, fashion makes me happy! Especially dresses like this: fun details, go great with any shoe from heels to sneakers, and comfy enough for any errand. A great bag that’s big enough for your life, but not boring. And shoes that nod to both. I love that the prints don’t match but flow; and loves, the trick there is to stay within the same color family. High fashion at the grocery store? I say yes. I promise it makes Monday easier!

There’s something about this vintage Gucci top that just makes me want to lounge. It goes great with jeans, pants, skirts–but I love it in this slightly 70’s nod with a leather skirt and peep toes. The low v doesn’t need any help to stand out (you could layer it over a turtleneck or shirt if you needed to), but a little red lip never hurt no one. Lounging, parties, or a dinner out–this will do all the talking you need!

I love a cheeky nod with my fashion (yes, bad pun intended). Pieces that have a personality, stand out, are fun, and go with anything. This clutch was a holiday gift to myself, and I couldn’t be more grateful! It goes with everything, yet makes a statement. And I love this eye shirt, subtle yet fun (and yes, I have a thing for eyes). And together–just cheeky! I couldn’t resist the trend of fishnets with jeans (I have to admit, they do just go together) and some of my fave Gucci loafers. What’s making you smile today?

Loves, I consider it my duty to let you know all the ways that you can wear all the ways you can style the fashion I bring you. That’s part of the fun, right? But there are times when I can’t decide myself–great fashion can lead to indecision. So what’s a fashion lover to do? Choose them both. With this vintage, super sexy Dolce&Gabbana dress I couldn’t decide to wear heels or boots (and I love it with sneakers as well). So I shot it both ways–and here’s the best thing about great fashion, it can be styled every which way. Great with heels, boots, sneakers–what else can we think of?

You either love hotels or you hate them. Me? I love them! From high end resorts to motels, I love the personality, the rooms, the pools, I just I love hotels! Maybe it’s all the movies that I watch, but it always seems as if there’s adventure to be had in them! And because my definition of adventure involves stunning fashion, I always have a great time in hotels. In this one? Dreamy White Leather dresses (this one has become my go-to, it’s Gucci that I got second hand and I wear it all the time), socks with peep toes (one of my fave combos) and waiting. What’s not to love?

If you’re like me, you love JCrew. They offer classics and well made trends at great prices, and the fit is perfect! And while Jcrew is known for classics, it’s a fun line–and has its own personality. In fact, I love dressing as a Jcrew Gal! So today, I’m breaking down Jcrew Stlye for you, so we can be classic and fun together!

Stripes and Statment Necklaces
Stripes are a staple–they go with everything, are the new neutral, and Jcrew offers more than one style. I love the short sleeve popovers, they manage to be both casual and pulled together at the same time!
Statement Necklaces are another Jcrew Staple, and why not! They add a bit of pop to any outfit, and who doesn’t love a little bling?

Leopard, it’s the new neutral. Seriously, leopard print can go with anything, and in classic shapes like this skirt make it a must for everyone’s closet!

Pop of Color! I love a great pop of color (told you I was a Jcrew girl), and think accersories are the best place for it! I have to be hones, these shoes aren’t Jcrew (they’re Gucci), but they go so perfectly that I couldn’t’ resist!

Put it all together and you have a classic look that pops, is fun, and feels lady like!

How do you Jcrew?

When we list the things I love, vintage dresses (like this Chloe) and I love accersories that pop (enter leather sleeves). I also mentioned that I loved the Chanel look that paired fingerless gloves under traditional dresses (you can see this look all over my Pintrest, follow me at @racheladelicia), so it was a natural for me to pair these two together! I love the soft and tough mixed, and the details! The banded hem and buttons of the dress (which also goes great with heels, wedges). The leather sleeves are a perfect juxatipositon (and go great under jackets, tops and other dresses–anything really). The boots tie it together, and make the look!

Happy Monday!

As someone who loves their juxatipositons, can you blame me for considering jeans cocktail wear? Of course, pair a semi-sheer cocktail dress over them and it’s easy (You could also use any statement top, or put a skirt or dress on top, jeans are the most versatile thing you own, I promise). And I love the play here. I love that the dress is just sheer enough, I love that the denim grounds the dress, I love that it’s fun, and that the beading is magical. I’m not one for a ton of makeup but for this I attempted to keep a dewy look–it’s no makeup with a pinky lipgloss as eyeshadow. And if you ever have the chance, might I recommend the Pacific Design Center in LA? It makes magic easy!

Happy Friday!

This was another shoot where every pic was my fave and choosing was just too hard! I love the pleats on this skirt and how the light plays with them. I love this Gucci top: how it’s soft and sheer and yet a stand out with the tails. I love that the skirt goes with everything. I love that I can also wear this top with jeans. The shoes whose bands match the pleating. The sheer shocks with a node to the blouse. This is my idea of symmetry.
