Things I love: high fashion, juxatipositon, couture, supporting other women, and outfits that stand out. This winning combo is complete here! The top is couture by my friend Rachel Ruth Baker (you can find her on Instagram as @pychinzska and you should!) and it’s perfect. I love the sleeves, the eye detail, the purple. I love that it’s high fashion, but goes great with jeans, or in this case Jrew chinos. It feels special and everyday all at the same time. And it’s a great way to holiday!

What are some things that you love?

Happy MLK Day!

Your momma wore maxi skirts–this isn’t like this. This classic Jcrew maxi skirt has edge, movement, and surprises in store. Completely classic paired with this vintage Velvet top (it would look just as great with sweaters, tees, blouses), it has a slight train (which I love) and goes great with biker boots (or any shoe-flat or heel). I just love the juxatipositon (you know me), the boots the skirt, the soft the tough. It’s perfect for any occasion I can think of–where would you wear it?

Happy Friday! XO RA

Who says the holidays get to have all the fun? This vintage Pucci number is fun, flirty, and great for a party–even if that party is simply dinner, drinks, or Tuesday! I love the swing of the fringe, and yet–it doesn’t feel over powering. It’s simple but a statement! And these wrap shoes! Talk about go with everything–jeans, skirts, fun dresses. What are you celebrating today?

Loves, I love fashion and planning and wearing outfits. However, if you’ve been paying attention you know that I also love a great work out. I admit, I’m not one that gets dressed up to go to the gym–but I am picky about what leggings I wear; and if I am coming completely clean, I will admit that I sometimes wear my athletic wear all day (mixing and matching with street clothes). Athlesuire is a trend on the rise, and it felt only fair that I share some of my fave athletic wear with you! So tell me: do you wear your athletic wear out on the streets? Do you dress up to go to the gym? What’s your favorite work out wear?

It’s a new year, new us, we’re making a statement, and it’s caped. I am a fan of capes (seen here, here, and here) and with gorgeous vintage capes like this pink lined one, I don’t see my love of capes going anywhere! Here’s what I love about capes-they go with anything, are simple yet make statements, effortless and chic. The tweed here with the pink silk lining and those details –neck closure, the pocket–blends sensible with fun. It goes great with jeans and a turtleneck but will go over anything! How do you wear your capes?

Is cold weather an excuse not be chic? Granted the answer to this is easier when cold is not in the teens, but I think cold weather is simply an excuse to pop your glam cold weather wear. For example? These boots–you’ve seen them so many times before, but any time I have a chance, I wear them! (See them here, here, and here, and all over my Instagram). I love that they are warm, but a complete show stoppper! And this vintage YSL trench. Velvet (on trend), warm, and versatile (it’s a little big on me, so I wrap it to make it a dress, it also looks great open over anything), it turns heads too! I just like to show the weather who’s the boss–what about you?

If you’re like me, you love the street style pics that (often come during fashion week) get shared on all of our social media outlets. I love getting inspired by the outfits, the outrageous style, and the way people make the street their runway–I aspire to that. So, is there a formula to street style? After careful study I think the biggest thing is to let your personality shine through, and have some fun! And for me–fun is proportion and color! I fell in love with these Solace London palazzo pants at my trip to Austn’s Le Garage Sale, and had to have them. The silk is incredibly soft, the length is amazing, and the volume is so fun! They go with so much–from tees to blouses, but I love the contrast of a sweater. I kept it thin, and in the same color to minimize any bulkiness. And then. Fun shoes! You know me–I love my shoes, and these Velvet mules are no exception. The color is amazing, they’re comfy, and they add pop! A great outfit for work, play, or being on the street! What do you think of my street style?

Loves! It’s 2017! We made it! Did you have a good holiday? Are you back at work? I can’t wait to hear everything! Today may still be a bit of an “in between day” for some. The holidays are over, but it’s not as if we’re in the swing of things. We’re working on swinging–going back to work, taking down the holiday. Days like today it’s tempting to stay in PJs all day (and I’ve been known to do that), but when you have to get dressed I love outfits like this one–easy, comfy, but pack a punch! And yes, let’s talk about these boots! They’re Chanel and I got them on Vestaire Collective, and loves, they are perfect. Buttery soft, I love that they are flat–but the length gives them a pop! With a great pair of jeans and a classic blouse (with a color pop of its own), I’m reading for swinging!

What are your go-to outfits for easy days?

This is it! We made it to the holiday! And no matter what you have left to do–baking, buying, celebrating, you deserved to look and feel your best! My solution? The combo of holiday fancy (velvet, that’s velvet) and comfort. This dress is actually a vintage dressing gown (from Bloomers and Frocks ) and it’s one of the most comfortable things I own–but it looks amazing! It has all of the vintage perfection-details and small waist, yet,due to its dressing gown nature, flows in all the right places. With the right shoes, I’m ready for all the celebrating to come!

A note about the holiday: We are down Sunday but will be back next Wednesday with new content! During our “down days” make sure to check us out on Instagram (@racheladelicia–and did you know my looks are shop able? With Witlee (Witlee or on Shop Style (both the site and the app!) I will be posting sale updates and past looks to Facebook (for your escapism and to help you with that holiday $$).

Wishing you and Yours a Great Holiday! XO
