Sunglass Shape Guide

Posted on May 10, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

There are so many different shapes and sizes for sunglasses that finding the perfect pair can get annoying. So here is a little guide for finding the right pair of sunglasses for your face shape. If you have a heart shaped face, try to focus on getting rimless or semi-rimless frames that draw the attention down. For a square shaped face, stick with a pair that have a gentle curve to compliment the chiseled jawline. For people with oval shaped faces, many different styles can be worn such as round or aviators or even rectangular glasses. For people with round faces try to get square or rectangle shaped sunglasses to counteract the roundness of the face. And finally for people with diamond shaped faces, glasses with curves that are not too oversized will look great. Keep in mind that these are just recommendations based on basic shapes and not suggesting that you can not wear certain glasses!

One of the fun parts of going on trips is packing, but for some people it can be dreadful. So in this blog you will see some tips for packing. Tip one is to always roll your clothes, this maximizes space in your suitcase. The second tip is to pack basics that you can mix and match, this will help make the most out of outfit options that you will have on this trip. Next, pack your shoes in a shower cap so your clothes do not get dirty from the bottom of the shoe.

Bathing Suits for the Summer

Posted on April 26, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Summer is coming up slowly which is the start of going to the pool and beach. Having a few bathing suits for the warmer weather is a must if you go to the pool often or you are going on vacation. The best stores for cute and inexpensive swimwear are zaful and forever 21, they have a wide range of swimwear. A tip for swimwear is to make sure it is flattering and nice quality, you can check this by the edges, if there is an elastic band on the edges the swimsuit will most likely dig in your skin and make a weird crease, avoid this by opting out for something that has a seam. I hope this helps for the next time you decide to go shopping for bathing suits!

Jewelry Ideas

Posted on March 28, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Jewelry is a great way to add taste to an outfit. There is a huge range of jewelry that you can get whether you decide to splurge or not. I would recommend matching the color of your jewelry, meaning wearing all gold or all silver. This automatically makes your outfit look more put together. Also, everyone should have a simple set that they wear everyday for example, a simple necklace, stud earrings and a thin bangle with a matching ring. You can spend as much or as little money you want on jewelry. You can find some cute sets at Forever 21 for less than ten dollars or buy real gold or silver. A tip for jewelry that is prone to rust, when you buy it coat it with a clear top coat of nail polish, this ensures the color will not rust for a longer period of time. I would also keep a more fancy set of jewelry for when you want to go to a special event or dress up a simple outfit. You can easily find bling that looks real for cheap from any store like Forever 21 or even Walmart to wear for special events. In this set I would try to match as well. The number one thing to make your jewelry classy and cute is to make sure it is well coordinated, if you have a diamond studded necklace I would pair that with diamond stud earrings and a bracelet that incorporates a diamond stud as well. Another type of jewelry is string jewelry, these are super cute and a great option for people that do not like the diamonds or chains.

Spring Shoes

Posted on March 22, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Spring is officially here which means switching out boots for sandals. Shoes are a great accessory to an outfit and add so much. Some everyday shoes that match many outfits include slip on Vans and Birkenstocks. You can wear these everyday to school with a casual tee and shorts. I would also recommend getting athletic shoes like Adidas Nmd´s, but in a lighter color for the spring. Some more dressy shoes include the classic sandals which you can get from anywhere, or you could get the Tory Burch ones if you want to splurge a little. Both ways they add a simple element to a more dressed up outfit.

Now that the weather is becoming warmer and new sports are starting for the spring season, you are going to have to think about what to bring to the gym or practice. The first thing I would recommend is a a few athletic sets, like shorts and a top that you can always keep for working out. You can find some cute ones at Forever 21 or Lululemon, depending on your budget. Next I would recommend a bag or backpack, try to get a neutral color so that it would match most of your outfits. You can find these from a wide range of places like Dicks Sporting Goods or even VS Pink has some cute duffel bags you could use for the gym. I would also make sure to bring headphones to listen to music while you work out, this helps a lot!

How to Find your Style

Posted on March 8, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Finding your own style can be difficult, even more so when there are a bunch of trends. It gets really easy to get caught up in these trends and not know your own style. My first tip is to find inspiration from your style icons, the best place for this is on Instagram since there a lot of fashion or beauty gurus who post their outfits often. Save a few outfits for reference when you want to get clothes. My next tip would be to decide whether or not that style of clothing is appropriate for your age and day to day activities. If so, go out and try to find some basic and inexpensive alternatives which are similar to the style you are looking into. Next clean out your closet, if you end up really liking this style, clean out your closet so you can get a visual what you need to maintain your style. These are all the tips I have for for finding your style! Image result for fashion closet

Bag Inspiration

Posted on February 15, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Bags add so much to an outfit but, it is difficult to find the perfect handbag or wallet for everyday use. Here are some recommendations for some cute and simple bags . I would recommend starting off with a wallet or a wristlet, some cute ones include a Kate Spade or a Michael Kors in light pink or black. If you are looking into buying a bag, I would recommend a longchamp, it is not too expensive compared to designer bags, but they are cute and simple and match most outfits. If you are looking into a fancier bag I would recommend a more structured handbag from Michael Kors or Tory Burch. Another accessory that is really cute and popular is the Louis Vuitton coin purse, this is a higher end and more expensive type but it would be a nice birthday or Christmas gift.

Styling dresses

Posted on February 7, 2019 by KARIMI YEKTA

Dresses are a classic piece that you can wear to many events during all seasons. They are typically worn more in the warmer times, and for more dressed up events but that does not always apply. If you are dress shopping and want some for the winter, try to find dresses that are long sleeved, also try to stay away from very floral prints since they can look like a summer outfit. Wearing dresses expose your legs, so try to get some nude colored tights to keep them warm. It is also very helpful to wear over the knee boots as well, these will keep you warm during the chilly weather. Something else that will help is a trench coat, these are so fashionable and add a lot to a simple dress. These tips will ensure that you will stay warm and look fashionable at the same time!
