I Want: Summer 2013 by Forever 21

Floral Blouse for $23

Scarf Print Shorts for $18

Wayfarers for $6

Oh Snap! Tank for $15

Rose Head Wrap for $5

and if i could, i'd buy a TON of tropical printed bustiers but i got body issues. specially after spending spring break in nicaragua - no gym, just beer. therefore, my lil beer belly will not be out n about in a bustier.

every time i'm bored i check out forever 21 online and my mouth always drops, it's so damn cheap! so when i need a new wardrobe i walk in right before i hit the gym. however, i feel like everything is so much better 'quality' when i look at it online. once i'm at the store, i'm like 'eeh' (shrug)..(walk out the store). once it gets warmer in nyc, i'll check out these pieces n maybe i'll buy them.

forever 21 also has a cute indie 'festival' capsule collection featuring Sky Ferreira, just in case you are headed to Coachella, u lucky bitch!

Parallel Universe: Gucci and Vicente Castellon

before there was Vicente Castellon (Nicaraguan designer) there was Frida Giannini of Gucci - but before anyone saw the RTW 2013 collection by Gucci at Milan, we saw Vicente Castellon's SS13 collection debut at Nicaragua Diseña back in October 2012. great designers, think alike! no copyright issues here. #JustSayin

VC's subtle palette ss13 collection was inspired by an 70's Nicaraguan socialite (whom he rather not name) and Giannini's collection featured brighter Spring colors paging Marella Agnelli and Marisa Berenson. however, they both seemed to be inspired by the late 60s and early 70s and closed their collections with white provocative V-neck gowns and dramatic sleeves.

which ss13 collection do you like?
