Chambray Shirt and Leather Outfit

Chambray shirt (use code HAPPYSPRING for 30% off) / J.Crew denim jeans / BlankNYC moto jacket (currently on sale for 35% off!) / Rebecca Minkoff bag / Buckled ankle boots

I've been finding myself wearing this chambray shirt lately especially with paired with a denim bottom. I used to be a little intimidated with the whole denim on denim outfit, but I find myself gravitating to it now especially since Spring as officially begun. This chambray shirt has earned its spot as classic wardrobe staple in my closet as it's one of those pieces that can transition throughout the year (see another denim on denim outfit here).



I've been trying out different styling options for a denim on denim outfit. I've paired this look with a grey coat. This time, I've toughen up the chambray shirt and denim pants with the faux leather moto jacket and some buckled ankle boots.

How To Style a Basic Tee and Skinny Jeans

Madewell white v-neck pocket t-shirt / Topshop Jamie high waisted jeans / Thread & Supply quilted bomber jacket / Rebecca Minkoff Hudson Moto bag / Adidas Superstar sneakers

I just posted a YouTube video on my channel on how to style a basic tee and skinny jeans three different ways. Sometimes, we get into a rut styling some of our well loved basic pieces. I've shared three different looks on how I rock my t-shirt and skinny jeans for different occasions.

I found myself owning more basic t-shirts in my wardrobe and a good fitting pair of jeans. Since summer is over and fall is here, it's time for me to transition back to my skinny jeans. Here's one of the looks in the video. Click after the jump to see the rest of the outfits and for a quick review on these jeans.

Ruffled

This J. Crew ruffled-hem sweatshirt (also currently on sale right now!) has been getting plenty of loving from me. It's my most worn sweatshirt at the moment (or even as a clothing item in general) that I wear it at least once a week.

Wildest Dreams

Madewell t-shirt / Topshop quilted skirt (similar) / Zara boots (similar) / Wildfox sunglasses / Rebecca Minkoff bag / JewelMint choker / Dogeared necklace 

Yesterday was basically Taylor Swift day with her new album release of 1989. I wasn't much a T Swift fan up until recently due to my friend, Crystal. If it wasn't Sam Smith we're listening to, it would be Taylor Swift (or Ed Sheeran). I've enjoyed her music before (listening to her on hits the radio), but I didn't really listen to her albums as a whole.

In preparation for the "We Can Survive" concert that we attended last Friday, I listened to every single album she had (thinking she was closing the show which ended up not happening), and found myself being able to relate to almost every single song. There's no denying that she's an amazing storyteller. Were we friends in the past life, Taylor? You basically laid out the emotions that I felt in your songs.

So yesterday during my lunch break, I picked up her new album, and it's been on repeat since then. As I've mentioned on Instagram, this album is the soundtrack of my life. Let's just say that I could dedicate each song to someone if I have to.

And in case you're wondering which songs are my favorite, read below...

Run Lola Run

Zara sweater (similar) / H&M leather skirt (similar) / Nike sneakers / Rebecca Minkoff bag / Daniel Wellington watch 

I've been wearing my Nike sneakers with practically everything lately. It's been my go-to shoes especially in the weekends since they're incredibly comfortable. It's surprising how these shoes basically goes with anything whether it be wearing a dress, shorts, jeans, or in this case, a leather skirt.

"Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street..."

I've been listening to too much Taylor Swift (and Ariana Grande) as of late in preparation for the We Can Survive concert next Friday at the Hollywood Bowl. And for some reason, when I was editing these pictures, it just reminded me of T. Swift's song Red... which is kind of my jam right now.

La La La

So this rounds up my Palm Springs outfit post. I opted for a more relaxed outfit since we were driving back to LA. I didn't want to feel fussy during the sad drive back home.

On a somewhat related note, I'm currently watching Sam Smith's iTunes Festival performance (watch it here, you're welcome) as I'm writing this blog post. And it's bumming me out that I won't be able to see him live at the Greek Theater. I say it's somewhat related since this was the album that we played for the most part on our drive to and from Palm Springs. The album evokes so much emotion that you can really feel whatever Sam Smith was feeling that moment. He's definitely one of my favorites right now, and he can serenade me any time he wants.

Everything Will Be Ok

Forever 21 crochet top / Forever 21 boyfriend shorts / ASOS wedges / Rebecca Minkoff Hudson Moto / Uniqlo belt / Michael Kors watch / House of Harlow earrings / Flash tattoos

These past few weeks has been a whirlwind for me, so a couple of days in Palm Springs with the girls to unwind and relax for the long Labor Day weekend was in order. Aside from taking advantage of the nice Palm Springs back drop to take pictures, we absolutely did nothing but lay out by the pool to stay cool. You can find some the fun shenanigans we got into in my Instagram.

Going out of town for a few days was the vacation I needed. I haven't had the chance to just do nothing or not have to worry about anything. It's nice to just shut down for a couple of days and just enjoy the company and surroundings. And despite all the craziness that life throws at us, just like the sign preaches, everything will be ok.

Lookbook: Gray Leopard Pants

If you guys follow me on Instagram (@yummiebitez), then you probably know by now that I kinda sorta just came back from New York. It's been a couple of weeks now since I got back and I'm having New York withdrawals.

I'll be slowly posting the outfits that I wore while I was on my trip as well as a photo blog.

Lookbook: Dalmatian Pants

Hello.

Lookbook: Floral and Stripes

Hello again! So I'm trying to get back in the groove of taking pictures of my outfits. My favorite Canon S95 was sadly stolen, and it's been a tad difficult taking pictures since then. I'm not exactly sure how bloggers tow their dslr all the time, but I'm trying to make it into a habit to at least have it on the weekends.
