Please give me your stuff: Jessica Alba

You might be thinking, why her? I think the photos will tell the story. I dislike picking those celebs that have their clothes constantly picked out by stylists as we don't really know what is actually their style, don't we? I prefer the paparazzi shots (however disturbing it might be to think of someone being constantly followed and photographed, but if I was getting millions, I wouldn't mind, stop bitching celebs, they are giving you free publicity). Those pics are the real deal. Showing them go in and out of grocery stores, children's classes, doctor's appointments and all those freaky little places where you wish nobody would EVER photograph you. It serves the purpose though. It show celebs in their every day outfits which they have picked out themselves. (This is the reason Britney Spears will never be in this section, because of this). Also, you can clearly notice the pattern - the items that define their style.






What defines Jessica's style


Accessories (and lots of them) - this girl is not afraid of a scarf and a hat. Actually she wears them all the time. They match her glasses, flats, bags etc. They warm her up and give a casual feel to all her outfits. We can actually conclude she is obsessed with them. Maybe people can learn from this. And of course - her fedora. In winter or summer.
I especially love when she doubles up - scarf and a hat. That's daring and magnificent. When done right as in the first photo of the second row (stilettos!!)












Colors - She embraces them. Cuddles them. Rocks in them. Enough said.




Blazers (+scarves) - The only piece of outfit that I could die without. I dare you to find a good replacement. I dare you!




Jeans (and pants of all sorts) - There is only a handful of pics of her in dresses, excluding the red carpet section bellow.



Layers - she loves to pile them on, as any scarf loving person does (me, me, although I am sincerely cold all the time except in July and August).




All of the above (scarves, hats, colors, blazers, jeans and layers) - these were too good to leave out.

Skirts and long dresses - some minority garments in her wardrobe. They are probably the first to be deported in the spring cleaning. Just a horrible joke. Every post needs one.



And now... TA DA DA DA! (whaaa whaaa ... pump it up pump it in and let me begin..; who gets it, gets it)


Exactly what you have all been waiting for. The fully staged, sparkling red carpet looks.



If you can pick a favorite from this mush, leave it in the comment bellow (I'll take 5th row, 3rd to the left as the description, just don't write - the one with the scarf, sigh).
But I do like her style, or she wouldn't be in this section. I am just in a sarcastic mood today.

cmok!

Cheap and Chic: The Sunnies of SS 2012



Haven't you heard? It's all over the street blogs. The sunglasses have gotten a make-over. I would love to buy a Prada pair, but who am I kidding. That's why I'm giving you some cheap options bellow. We have round ones which are the absolute winner this season and I thought I would not see them after the Nirvana era, of which I actually have a pretty embarrassing teenage photo of myself wearing just these (mirrored too!). Then we have the mirrored ones, I would love them in a crazy color as the one listed bellow from asos. We have the lady like cat eye and the leopard/tortoise options as well, both gaining strength since the fall season. Love 'em all and just in time for those rays.






This would be me wearing the trend (too bad these are not mine but they are urban outfitters - buy here!)


And the cheap version, yippie!!


Cat eye - Asos $78

Green round - Asos $21

Yellow with pink mirrored lens - Asos $21

Metal top round sunglasses - Asos $21

Tortoise with metal bridge - Asos $21

Wing cat eye - Asos $21

Tortoise - Forever21 $6

Look at that clutch! Perfection!

Real: How to wear a white lace dress

Umm... you must be thinking... who is this girl to tell me how to wear anything? Well, I didn't mean to be bossy in my title but "suggestions on how to wear a white lace dress" might not be as punchy or attention grabbing. I will take the risk of sounding a bit preachy for you to see how a simple but overwhelmingly beautiful white lace dress (thank you my friends for giving me such an inspiring present) can be worn in many occasions and look just the way you want it. From casual, a night out, to a girly brunch, there is a lot of room for imagination. 


Oh, did I mention that my stuff doesn't cost a fortune? No need to break the piggy bank.


Dress worn in all the photos is a zara white lace dress from the spring summer 2012 collection. Buy it here ($89.90) and get imaginative.

Starting off with a casual look
very city chic


I love pairing a military jacket with such a delicate lace dress. Add on some comfy boots and a belt to keep the shape... perfect for a day out in the city









jacket: h&m
boots: zara
belt: h&m
headband: zara
watch: michael kors
glasses: ray ban
bracelets: one by h&m, 
other made in barcelona
rings: vintage




Another casual look
perfect for a sunday funday

Never think that shirts can't be worn over dresses. Why not? Is there a rule book on this? I liked to keep girly accessories, like wedges, pearls and sparkles, just so I don't look like a farm girl.





dress: zara
plaid shirt: h&m
bag: zara
wedges: jessica simpson
jewelry: forever21




Let's bring it up a noch with a 
girly look

 I am wearing flats! But these are an elegant pair (sara version of the valentino stunners)
My favorite costume jewelry necklace over a closed front dress - it's just what I like + pink lipstick








dress: zara
shoes: zara
necklace: forever21
love that one
glasses: ray ban



Now we're going for 
the clubbing look.

I adore this jacket as it can be worn over anything. I like to toughen it up with red lipstick and killer heels. These are very very high, I am almost as tall as a model in these ;), got to get in those clubs.






dress: zara
jacket: zara
clutch: random, alexander mcqueen rip off.
 love the nyc stores for variety
ring: h&m
shoes: jessica simpson




And last but not least
Girly with a neon detail

Want to look sexy and sweet at the same time. 
Maybe for a date night, outing with the girls...
I love neutral heels as they elongate my legs 
(being a tiny squirt as I am, that's a good thing)






dress: zara
belt: forever21
watch: michael kors
bracelets: h&m
ring: forever21
heels: zara


Don't be so boring and try some of this out.
