Cool

Posted on June 11, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Leather Jacket Divided by H&M | Tunic Miley Cyrus & Max Azria | Leggings H&M | Thigh high boots Steve Madden | Sunglasses Ray-Bans | Rings Forever 21Does anyone else feel like a rebel when they slip on a leather jacket? And spikes? And thigh high boots? How about just with a pair of sunglasses?
I know I did, and I can’t help but feel cool in this outfit. (And no it is not because I am next to the ice chest).
Another weekend gone and back in the bay area. Time to prepare for another week at work with a few new outfits!

Cannery Row

Posted on June 11, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Cardigan Charlotte Russe | Top Rue 21 | Jeans, flats, and necklace Forever 21 | Bag Steve MaddenA late Saturday post, but better late than never!
I had such a great day. I spent the early afternoon with my best friend from high school shopping at our local Savers. I had come home to Salinas for the weekend, and was so glad we could hang out for a bit like back in the day. This store was one of the first I thrifted at, and with her as my shopping buddy. We looked for stuff that would be cool to use for our high school’s spirit days, but today I found a lot of great pieces that will come in handy for work!
Afterwards I headed to Cannery Row with my sister to meet up with Armando at Cannery Row in Monterey for food and black light mini golf at Oceans 18. We ate at Bubba Gump and played 18 rounds with Armando winning.
My outfit went from shopping, to dinner, to having fun playing mini golf. I think my necklace was right on point for this trip by the ocean!

Chandelier Feather Earrings

Such a specific blog post title, I know, but the earrings pretty much inspired the rest of my outfit for today. All the items I have worn before except for the earrings, and a big reason is because I actually struggled pairing them with what was in my closet. These are not really bohemian and don’t feel like everyday earrings, so I love the effect they have when paired with the ponytail and shades of grey.
This is one of my favorite outfits so far, and it made me sad to have to change for my workout at the pool. I am proud to say I jumped in and swam 1000 yards (40 times up and down) without taking any breaks. I feel so proud of myself! So far I’ve gone 3 times this week, but today’s workout felt so satisfying! I believe I swam 1400 yards total, so I know since Monday I will keep improving.

Fendi Blazer

Posted on June 7, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Yellow Blazer Fendi | Shadow Floral Wrap Dress Diane von Furstenberg | Pink Bow Ring Forever 21 | Black Ulltra Patent Pumps Steve MaddenI’m a little behind, but adding swimming to my afternoons prompts me to take my photo as soon as I get to my apartment. Afterwards I get ready for the gym and yesterday I got back and went out for dinner. No time left to post because I came home afterwards and passed out. I slept so well, and that was probably because working out actually takes a lot out of me.

I am really happy with this yellow blazer. First of all it is Fendi, and it clearly needed to come home with me. Once again I snagged an amazing find from a Goodwill, and for only $7.99! Say what?! To top it off, dry cleaning was another $7.50, so a total of about $15 to add some serious color to my outfit. I’ve worn the other pieces in my outfit before, so I am really stretching my dollars.
Straight hair adds to the polished look, which was necessary for a big meeting with my supervisor. I’d say this would be great to wear to a job interview, especially because the bright yellow blazer would stand out amongst black and navy suits.

Black Princess Coat and Black Ulltra Pumps Steve Madden | Black Cardigan and High Waist Skirt Twelve by Twelve | Sheer Button Down Top Wet Seal, | Scissors Pendant Necklace Crossroads Trading Co.Simple black and white look with pieces that are not so basic. Photos are a little off because I attempted to take them myself with my tripod. The scissor necklace is pretty awesome and I love that it was a gift from my sister.

Ordered this coat from alloy.com and I love it! What would you wear with this type of coat?

Polished in a Blazer

Rain in June? How strange!
While the weather was less than ideal for a dress, I really wanted to wear this blazer and dress combination. The look is almost effortless, and these pieces really mean a lot to me.
The blazer is part of a suit my mom gave, and that I just got altered to fit me. The dress I wore before for my graduation and the shoes were my first pair of Louboutins (which I bought for my 21st birthday). The belt is just another example of the great little treasures one can find thrifting (or on a Crossroads mannequin). I think some outfits you just know work. I see this not only at work but out at night with the girls or on a date, just by adding a cute clutch!
It is important to feel good in your clothes, and to keep that up I started swimming on campus. It is hard to resist since I get a free trial period of 30 days. I want to feel great in everything I wear, especially them skinny jeans taunting me in my closet. For the most part, I believe women, and men should dress to accentuate their assets. But it is always good to be healthy since a hot bod goes with everything!
