MY CLOSET: Unicorn Love

Trending Unicorn Fashion - Always be a Unicorn

Always be yourself, unless you can be a unicorn. Then always be a unicorn

awkward family photos - girl and cat- Bonlook La Marquise


When given the chance, always be a unicorn...and let's be honest, everyday is a chance. Ok, so I think it's no secret, I'm super hip to late 80's and early 90's style. My current icons are my childhood faves, like My Little Pony and Gem. I strive to boldly rock those looks, no shame. Oftentimes, I look like a unicorn without even being consciously aware...like how i've been wearing my hair lately, I didn't even realize it's awesome till I saw the photo with the beheaded Unicorn. This is pretty great, right?! It's to the point where I look like a mythical creature without awareness. I'm ok with this, and I encourage you to do the same.
Can we please talk about Lime Crime lipstick? My goodness, it's amazing. Their bold opaque colors are pure amazingness. The color I'm wearing is called Chinchilla and if I were you, I'd go ahead and "splurge" on this cool product. You can find the rest of the outfit details below!
P.S. Oscar the cat love unicorns as well...clearly.

MY CLOSET: Summer Style Maxi Kimono

Boho Tie Dye Maxi Kimono

Tie-Dye Maxi Kimono - Boho Chick

Kimonos are my favorite piece right now for summer. It's a ridiculous obsession I have. The sheer chiffon material is lightweight and flowy...perfect to dance around in on warm days and nights. I paired it with a simple t-shirt and shorts from JCrew. The Jeffrey Campbell spike mules and cutout sunglasses from Bonlook are fabulous statement accessories to add more boldness to the look. 
Get the kimono here! I will have several in the Glam & Grace shop soon!

I love the challenge of exploring style. I'm influenced by my surroundings, my research and observations...and that's where the exploration begins. Growth in design is what's important to me and I'm always striving to expand my horizon and perspective.
The simplicity of this look really draws me in. I'm actually wearing quite bold pieces yet the neutral color palette unifies the look and tones it down. The modern leopard shift dress is in warm tan and brown tones (and black) so to contrast, I paired it with a cooler colored silver pearl necklace and silver booties. See how that pops? Love it.

MY CLOSET: Dark Hues with Pops of Color

Coast To Coast Challenge - Akron OH fashion

BonLook La Marquise Crystal Sand

Nasty Gal Shoe Cult - Leopard Boots - contrast sleeve coat
dark hues with a pop of color - bright lips

NastyGal Shoe Cult Leopard Boots

This look was inspired by the Coast to Coast Challenge from CoastToCoastCentral.com. The challenge was to post a look on Instagram of your outfit containing dark hues and red lips. How fun!...How could I say no? The weekly challenge was birthed out of the desire to connect women, inspire each other to try new things, and to keep up with the latest fashion trends.
Even better, they also have a shop where 50% of the proceeds are going toward building a rescue house for victims of sex trafficking in Quito, Ecuador. Make sure you read their Mission/Vison statement and their Causes page.
I really enjoy how the color pops from this outfit! I normally wear crazy color all over...so I like how this forced me to be more neutral and then play with some bright pops, like these lovely Nasty Gal Shoe Cult leopard boots. I also usually don't wear red lip color but I enjoyed the experiment...I love how it goes with my bold colored sparkly necklace.
Also, I thought my Bon Look glasses would add a punch to the outfit. They are the Crystal Sand La Marquise. They are quite a statement piece but I love how the color just kind of blends in with my skin and hair. They just add that extra layer of cool and really show my personality.

Hey new red hair! Time to fully transition to fall and what better way then to switch up the hair color? I'm having so much fun pairing it's brightness with different colors of clothing. The pattern of this dress from ASOS is fabulous, not a big fan of the swing fit but hey, I gave it a fair shot. My glasses are of course from Bonlook, the La Marquise. All 4 pairs of my glasses are from Bonlook. Great prices and high style. The metallic pink pumps are from NastyGal. They have their new, very own shoe line, Shoe Cult. I grabbed them during a flash sale for only $25! Last but not least, the necklace is from my line (AC Design)...get it on Etsy or on my site!

To bring in the Summer I'll be rocking a caramel & cotton candyish inspired, retro look. Since becoming a BonLook ambassador, I was dying to get the new La Marquise glasses in Crystal Sand. (check out their glasses...I have 4 pairs!) Wowww do I love these!!! The lighter color blends with my skin and hair. Of course, I like to add a punch to my look by adding a bold lip color.
My hair was done by the lovely Thresa Venables at Sheer Professionals in Wooster. They are by far the top salon in Northeast Ohio...you must go there!
The necklace is one of my newer designs, you can check it out in my AC | Design shop.
Sheer dot tee and tulle skirt is from Jcrew (skirt is from Crewcuts)
White capped shoes and studded mini backpack is from ASOS
