Sunglasses- Céline

Curved Crew Top -LNA

Jeans- Frankie B.

Boots- See By Chloé

Keepin it casual this week... I just got this new LNA top and I love it. Their tops are so comfortable, but still cool. I don't know about you, but for some reason I always have a hard time shopping for tops or even just finding cute ones in my closet. My drawer is busting open from all my band tees, yet I can't find any top I want to wear. I like LNA because their tops are basic, yet still have a cool flare that can stand alone with a pair of jeans. This top could be dressed up with a blazer or dressed down with a denim or leather jacket. As for these See By Chloé boots, these boots are kind of old but they will always remain relevant in my closet.

Criss Cross

Leather Jacket- Topshop

Criss Cross Leotard- Pretty Attitude

Pleather Skirt- Nasty Gal

Leopard Booties- Saint Laurent

Here's another all black outfit... Just kidding, this time I wore leopard boots ;) I promise I'm not feeling down, but ever since I dyed my hair I think it just feels good to be back in black. Today I decided to wear this awesome criss cross leotard I got from Pretty Attitude. Did I say leotard? I meant swimsuit! My mom is the one who taught me that leotards/swimsuits double as great shirts. Plus, as the namesake of Frankie B. jeans, I can't tell you how many times I've heard "crack kills" and it's kind of nice to feel covered in a leotard. As for the rest of the outfit, I paired the leotard with a pleather pencil skirt, leopard booties and my go-to leather jacket.

If you're like me, I'm not one to walk out of the house in workout clothes. I workout and immediately shower and change; however, lately I've been noticing more and more women walking around every day in active wear. So this is where SOLOW comes into the picture. My mom recently started collaborating with an activewear line called SOLOW, but what's great about SOLOW is it is designed to be worn from gym to street. I know I know, it's my mom blahblahblah, but I honestly really like their pieces. This windbreaker reminds me of a leather jacket, and these leggings are slouchy and cropped and hardly look like workout leggings! This collection will be launching at the end of this month, so get excited! ALSO- if you like what you're seeing.... for the first time ever I'm holding a GIVEAWAY.

Here's what you do:

comment on my post on Instagram (@frankieberry) or Facebook (Facebook.com/frankiesplanetblog) and tag 3 FRIENDS for a chance to win a pair of SOLOW leggings. Winner will be chosen at random! GOOD LUCK!

What do skulls, studs, and hello kitty all have in common? I don't know, but I like it. On Friday I went to the Hello Kitty Exhibition at the Japanese American Museum and I loved it (hence the hello kitty temp tattoo). I've always kind of been a bit of a contradiction. Most of my closet is black matter, but I also have a hello kitty fetish. I don't know, I mean hello kitty can be punk right?

This outfit has been my go-to outfit lately. I'm a big fan of wearing leotards as tops (especially when they snap at the bottom so it's not a whole ordeal to go to the bathroom). I'm also in awe of my new mini Zara purse. It's so cute and small, yet it still fits my phone (granted I don't have the 6 plus). What's your go-to outfit?

Friends with Style Q&A

Name: Keelan Ellis

Who’s your style/music icon? When searching for inspiration for music, style, and if I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place I turn to none other than Steven Tyler.

Who/what inspired you to do what you do? My dad was my first inspiration. My dad being a guitarist, I got to see a lot of concerts at an early age. He would always play bands like Aerosmith, Van Halen on our long trips to the river and it fascinated me enough to the point where I found my dream at an early age.

What up-and-coming band(s) should we all know? This new band called Vintage Trouble caught my attention at Coachella last year with their killer image and great music style merging a classic 50’s sound with a modern vibe.

Where is your favorite place to shop? Brick and mortar record shops make my mouth drool. I can sit in those for hours before getting kicked out at closing time. There is a new record store in Monrovia called Resistor Records that has the greatest deals on classic albums and awesome new albums on vinyl as well. I suggest if you are ever in that area to check them out.

What’s the last movie you saw? 22 Jump Street. I give it a solid A and cant wait for 23,24,25 and 26

Where is your favorite place to eat? My grandmother’s kitchen! Pasta, Mac and cheese, you name it, she makes the best!

Describe your perfect day: My perfect day is having no plans and listening to my vinyls at volume 11. Cheap Trick’s album In Color is my current vinyl spinning at the moment.

Beatles or Rolling Stones? Yikes, I’ll get busted for my answer, but I say the Stones. The Beatles did so much for the music industry, but if I was asked to see a show (given that all members were still alive…..too soon?) I would choose the stones for their great energy. Mick should take it easy, but he still is a Jumpin Jack Flash on stage.

What’s your favorite app? Is Instagram too cliche? How about the app which tell me who unfollows me on Instagram? No?

What are you currently working on? Right now I’m focusing on my new music blog where I review albums, concerts and more exciting things to come www.keelanswallofsound.blogspot.com

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?

Back to Black

Punk Pencil Skirt

Lace Bracelet

Cameo Pillow

Today, I was feeling in an all black kind of mood and considering most of my wardrobe consists of black, you can imagine these moods happen quite often. Also, when am I not feeling black, lace and studs? I have always been really inspired by punk style and when I received some of these rad pieces from the rock n roll brand Pretty Attitude, I couldn't be more excited to style them! I decided to pair this awesome punk pencil skirt with a band t-shirt, but you could totally rock this with a crop top too (I just love showing my music pride). I like to think this outfit is what happens when a goth goes to Coachella.

Check out www.pretty-attitude.com for more awesome rock/punk/goth inspired pieces! (links to my scores are provided below each photo!)
