Personal Style: The Bow-Tie

I am not a personal fashion style blogger but every once and a while I like sharing my poorly edited personal style looks jajajajajjajaja. In this case, my new bow tie from the Forever 21 men's section and sheep sweater from Old Navy (tooooo cute!). The bow-tie is probably my favorite men's accessory and thanks to Masculin Feminin looks we girls are now pulling it off - the bow-tie has now crossed the border, become unisex and will not only be seen on Mr. Alber Elbaz of Lanvin, suave basketball players in shiny suits or delectable Chuck Bass (oooooooooooo0h Chuck!)

are you ready to cross-over?

Inspiring: J Crew Holiday 2012

 

Yes, I am subscribed to J Crew. Seriously who would have thought I'd fall so deeply in love with J Crew? Perhaps it was Jenna Lyons.

The mix and match of glitter, plaid, bow ties, bold bright jewelry, and jeans just does it for me.

Add some unique pumps, over the shoulders blazer and black framed glasses - you've been Jenna'd.

Not only I am looking at J Crew and Jenna for some holiday inspiration but everyday work and job interview inspirations. It's classy, comfortable and fun.

Inspiring: Resort 2013

BCBG Max Azria | Resort 2013

 Azria's inspiration embodies the cultures India to Peru for the Tuscan jetsetter's of Hotel Il Pellicano through kimono-style dresses. A definite must have style for a true beach jetsetter.

Balmain | Resort 2013

Balmain's Olivier Rousteing was inspired by Miami. Not only by the South Beach colors (yellow, peach, and mint) but by the Latin culture that makes Miami, "el pequeño latinoamerica".

"I'm mixed race, too," 

"so it was beautiful to see the connection between Cuba and the U.S. there."

"Fun, happiness, and hope"

Just Cavalli | Resort 2013

Cavalli was inspired by India, hip-hop culture and the Garden of Eden - accented with his signature animal prints.

The following looks are just a few looks that are bound to inspire my holiday looks while out in Miami and the Caribbean. However, I am set to wear a black pantsuit/romper/overall look. I'm aiming towards a sleek chic look to ring in the the new year.
