For this outfit I decided to channel my motorcycle/rock n' roll heritage. My dad is an avid motorcycle rider as well as a huge Stones fan, so you can say even my dad has some influence on my style... I guess not many other people can say that! A couple weeks ago I raided Forever 21 and picked up a few cool crop tops (2 of them being Stones tops). Whenever I go into a big store like Forever 21, I have to go in with an objective. This time I wanted to find summery tops (because even though it's spring it feels like summer here in la). By narrowing down my shopping criteria, I was able to find tons of cute tops for cheap!!

I guess you could say Forever 21 is my guilty pleasure... BUT has anyone else noticed how many cool band shirts they have!? I think I bought all my favorite KISS shirts from Forever 21.

As always, my biggest style inspiration is 70's glam rock. So running with that theme, all of these photos were shot in my dad's home recording studio. I love anything glitter or metallic, in other words, anything Marc Bolan or David Bowie would wear is fair game. For this outfit I tried to play up the rocker vibe without being too literal about it (as you see i'm not wearing a David Bowie band tee with this). I love these coated high-waisted jeans because they look like leather, but surprise they're not!

This isn't exactly a summer outfit (not even a little bit) but this is definitely something I would wear out to a concert, my own concert, or just a night out.

What/Who is your biggest style inspiration?

School is out (for me at least) which means more time to blog AND SHOP. On my first day of summer break, I picked up this baby blue purse from Topshop! I don't usually wear much color, but when it's almost 100 degrees outside sometimes I have to opt out of wearing all black. My new purse inspired me to put together this 3 shades of blue outfit. As for the boots... well I just never take them off.

Stick around, I've got a lot more posts to come!

Thank you to my boyfriend Keelan for helping me take photos, and for just being the best person to hangout with all weekend.

First, I'd like to say I'm sorry for being kind of absent for the past couple of weeks. They have been pretty hectic trying to get school work done, midterm portfolios, and picking out my Coachella outfits (a pretty big headache). I had such a great weekend, starting out seeing a last minute Julian Casablancas show at the Roxy in Hollywood. ( I was only a few feet away from him, and I've never had a bigger smile on my face) Then of course I had Coachella, which never disappoints. My highlight was 100% seeing Julian Casablancas at Mojave, and even though he only played one random Strokes song, I still worship the ground that he walks on. Here's a little sampling of my trip, if you also went to Coachella, who was your favorite band?

Next stop Governor's Ball!

Ever get completely stuck on what to wear? Sometimes one of the most helpful things for me to do is put on a record and get inspired. For the past couple of years I have been really inspired by the whole 70's glam rock look. In other words, I pretty much love anything gold or silver metallic. Recently, I bought a T.Rex "Electric Warrior" vinyl, and that has been my go-to album to listen to when I'm looking for a little outfit inspiration. You'd be surprised, sometimes I listen to one of my Strokes vinyls and end up looking like Julian Casablancas for the day. If you're like me and think music and fashion go hand and hand, this could be a really useful technique to help you get inspired.

Styled by Me and Daniella Clarke (my mom!)

Last week I was so excited to hear from my friend Cassidy Turner who asked to take photos of me for my blog! I have known Cassidy for a really long time and she is an amazingly talented photographer! My mom recently brought home these awesome gold metallic shorts, which I paired with a David Bowie top, silver pumps, a blazer, my favorite hat, and mirrored sunglasses. Gold and metallic naturally remind me of David Bowie, hence the Bowie shirt choice. Also, I'm obsessed with mirrored sunglasses, partially because Julian Casablancas turned me onto them. SPEAKING OF Julian Casablancas, guess who's going to the Governor's Ball music festival in NYC over the summer? SO excited to see The Strokes! Stay tuned for more photos taken by Cassidy on my blog!

While you're at it, check out Cassidy's website and Instagram to see more of her amazing photos!

Los Angeles is for Lovers

Frankie B. Jean Shorts

Jeffrey Campbell Booties

Black Keys Tee

Another sunny day in LA! The perfect time to pull out your favorite shorts and go out and about. Today I went to Downtown LA to check out some of the trade shows in the design spaces (It was SO hard not buying anything.) I decided to wear my new cut-out Frankie B. shorts with a band tee and Jeffrey Campbell booties as an easy sunny day outfit. Band tee's are my usual go-to item especially when I can't decide what to wear with shorts. NOTE: wear a band tee that you can name at least 3 songs from the bands! I chose one of my favorite bands The Black Keys (I've seen them live 3 times and they are great!) These Jeffrey Campbells were featured in one of my old posts, but they really can go with so many different outfits. I've also just been on a white shoe kick lately.

What's your go-to item or outfit?

xx Frankie
