Shopping: Fall Jackets

October 6, 2019

If you follow my Instagram stories you’ll know that I recently bought a new jacket, that is perfect for fall. I was especially excited that I bought it from one of my favorite stores, the Loft Outlet and that it was on sale! What was originally a moto-style jacket for $119.00 went down to $27.88! Yes you read that right! I had thrown out my faux leather jacket during the spring due to so much wear and literal tear, and was in need of a new one. The Loft is like Target for me, when I go into those stores there’s a 99% chance I’m walking out with clothes. You can read about pieces from Target that I’ve bought here, here and here. Check out my try on stories on my Instagram to see me trying out the latest Who What Wear for Target collections among others as well. And be sure to tune into my IG stories EVERY TUESDAY for my Fashion Tip Tuesday series, in where I previously gave a tip about shopping at the Loft and finding sales there.

The jacket I bought from the Loft Outlet fits like a glove. Its perfect for fall, with pockets deep enough to put things in and extremely stylish to boot. Its also classic enough to last me seasons of cold weather to come but it’s grey, so it steps out of the traditional black, that a moto style is usually made in. Here are similar options for you to add to your outerwear wardrobe. The post includes affiliate links.

Dark Greys

Light Greys

Greys with print or texture

And of course if you really want a traditional moto style….

You can’t go wrong with this style. It can be a staple year round and in diffrent colors like grey it can feel fresh. Stay tuned to my Instagram to see me in the one I bought from the Loft Outlet. Do you have a moto style jacket? Is it in the traditional black, or in a different color or print? Let me know in the comments and on social media.-T.S.

Como Ponerte Este Blusa de Target en cinco Estilos

February 24, 2019

Algo que deberias saber sobre mi es que amo a la tienda Target! Se que no hay Target en Puerto Rico, tristemente! Pero ojala un dia lo habra. Compro de una linea de ropa en Target en particualr, que se llama Who What Wear. Una linea creada por blogueras, y que combina piezas perfecta para la oficina y el fin de semana. Cada nuevo etapa o estacion que tienen una nueva coleccion, la coleccion anterior va en venta. Ese es mi tiempo favorito para compra nuevas piezas. La linea tiene accesorios y prendas, que tambien son muy ´´trendy¨ y aun classico. En mi ultimo ¨´Target run¨ como lo llamn aqui o en la ultmia vez que fue a Target compre unas piezas desde la linea Who What Wear. Este blousa verde que tiene un ´´print´´ o impresion de flores en blanco y negro fue una de esas piezas. Tambien compre una blusa con un impresion en blanco y negro y una flada ¨midi¨ en un azul real, que combine para un ¨look¨para New York Fashion Week. Lo siguientes son cinco ejemplos en como puedes ponerte esta blusa de Target. Este entrada tiene enlaces de afiliados.

Lunes: En este “look” he emparejado la blusa con una falda gris de la tienda Loft y tacones en el color ´nude´´ desde Payless. Tengo pusto una cinta del pelo y aretes para completar el conjunto.

2. Martes: En este conjunte jugue con colores, elegi unas panatalones en un color de vino desde The Limited. La cintura tiene una banda en negro, que empareje con los zapatos. Aretes sencillos completan el conjunte.

3. Miercoles: Con este conjunte me quede en la familia de colores verde y azul con el collar y los tacos altos desde H&M. Los pantalones son negro y los aretes son en dorado.

4. Jueves: Empareje la blusa con un ¨midi’ falda tambien desde la tienda Loft. Tacos alstos en morado desde Payless y aretes en oro terminan el conjunte. Mis gafas so de Zenni, una tienda por internet que tienen precios bajos.

5. Viernes: Para un ¨look´´ de fin de semana elegi mahones en el estilo de ´´moto´´. Los tenis son de Steve Madden y complete este conjunte con arretes en un estilo ´´hoop´´ o aros.

Ojala que te di inspiracion en como puedes llevar o ponerte un print o impresion como esta. Te gusta usar los ´´prints´´ o eres mas amante de los colores solidos?- T.S.

5 Ways to Wear the Robe Top Trend

February 18, 2019

Currently trending is the daytime pajama look. Done correctly the trend is sophisticated, sexy and even office appropriate. Not to mention it is extremely comfortable! On a recent trip to H&M, like any good bargain hunter I found myself browsing the sale rack. And lo and behold I found a robe top that I loved and was also obsessed with the price (originally $50, paid $7.69). Now the trick to buying trends at fast fashion stores like H&M is to ensure the garment has a few things. Here are a few tips on buying trends at fast fashion stores that will ensure a long life in your closet. * This post has Shopstyle affiliate links within it. Upon you clicking or buying from my link I receive a percentage of the final sale.

Cut: The cut should be classic, if its a very bold print. You also want to make sure its not too short or long on you. Buying a trend that doesn’t go with your proportions will make you look odd.
Color/Print: The color should be neutral if the cut is what is making it trendy. A classic color like black will make the trend more wearable throughout seasons and years.
Fabric: The fabric should not be too thin, the thinner the fabric the faster it takes on abrasion from wearing and washing. Making the fabric pron to deterring and breaking down. You can also look at the fabric content and wash care instructions on the tag to help you decide.
Trims: Buttons, linings, pockets and zippers should be working perfectly. All these items are considered trimming in the fashion industry, and you should pay attention to how they look and work on any garment. Why buy a garment when the zipper doesn’t close properly?

So with those tips in mind, don’t be afraid of fast fashion, because they CAN have a long life in your closet. Another reason to continue your use of fast fashion are programs like H&M Conscious were you can bring in any garments you don’t want and receive %15 off your next purchase. Through the program old garments get resold, reused or recycled through various programs and industries that collaborate with H&M. Fashion is still a big component to the pollution problem. Although with the help of programs, designers and by being self-educated on how to buy and take care of fast fashion items this problem can be remedied.

Here are 5 ways to wear the robe top trend:

Black on Black: For this look I went with a simple black dress, but added a pop of color with Aldo pumps. I would also do an all black look and wear black pumps or sandals.
