Thankful and accomplished are two major words that describe my current mood. With just a few weeks away from my college graduation, I sit and reflect upon every moment of my life and there are no regrets. I'm one of those people that believes you should not conform to a basic life and that you should attempt to do what you dream of doing. If you want to achieve your goals, you need to speak up, dedicate time to do what you love, and know that even if you fail you at least gave it a try. When I decided to start a fashion blog I would have never imagined that 7 years later I would be evolving it into a fashion/entertainment website and be lucky enough to be able to work with so many talented and inspirational people. Having the privilege of working in Hollywood is a wonderful experience and on a daily basis, I find inspiration for my ambition of becoming a fashion entrepreneur. While still in college I sometimes face challenges of deciding if I should attend an event with high-end designers or go to class and take notes. If you're wondering what I decided, you should know that I always made school my priority. Therefore, my advice for my youngest readers is to stay in school and go as far as possible with your studies. There is nothing more interesting than a person who can combine their daily experiences and new skills with their education. Sure you will feel you absolutely need to go to parties, but just remember that if you focus on achieving your goal you can party like a cooler kid later. To my older readers, if there is one piece of advice you feel you can take from this 22-year-old is the idea of not giving up on accomplishing a goal you lost in the middle of chaos. Have you always dreamt of speaking several languages? Do it!

Today's look is very casual and ideal for a cool beach day. I spent my Sunday at the beach having lunch and shopping along the coast. I combined a graphic tee with a pair of denim shorts and accessorized my look with a pair of sungalsses and handmade bracelets. I decided to wear sneakers to give my outfit some edginess.

Dressing up on a daily basis is a struggle and adding inclement weather doesn't help at all. As a matter of fact, most people would rather stay home and not get into the hassle of looking for the perfect rainy day look.
Today, I want to tell you that living in San Diego has taught me to relax on the rain stress and not overthink my outfit choices. We have had rainy days galore and I want to share my styling tips with you. First, we need to get rid of the negative mood towards the rain. We have to accept the fact that the rain isn't going anywhere. Secondly, we must admit that the rain makes things a little bit edgier yet sometimes fun. For example, taking a picture of your outfit outside on a rainy day will highlight that rocker chic side you hardly ever show. In addition, I suggest you go out and purchase at least two different pairs of rain boots. I currently bought a short animal print rain bootie from Steve Madden and a longer rain boot from Nordstrom. When I feel like going casual for school or to run errands I go with rain boots and a pair of leggings or animal print pants. I also like to wear sweatshirts or long sleeve shirts with hoodies on them. However, if I plan on going out or have a business meeting I will go with wearing black jeans, patent leather boots, a black shirt, and a oversized furry coat. Rainy days are fun and make fashion cool if you know how to style properly. My number one styling tip for rainy days is to layer up! Layering looks cool, plus you can always take of a piece of clothing when you feel warm. I'm always curious about your style! Tag me on social media so I can check out your stylish looks and like them. @fashionggw Pastel Palettes are a reminder of elegance. You instantly look poised and à la mode by wearing pastel colors. What's important to know is that light pink, blue, and green are the go-to colors of chic. You can literally wear a pair of light green jeans with a pink t-shirt and pair that look with a printed coat and still look sophisticated. My personal pastel color clothing preference is a simple yet fun gown.

For those who are not aware of the use of this product we will be giving you a few tips on how you can use fashion tape to save your stylish souls from wardrobe malfunctions.
What is fashion tape? Fashion tape are double-sided adhesive strips which can be used on almost any piece of fabric. You can use fashion tape to stick a piece of fabric onto your skin without fear of exposing skin, brand tags, or simply to fix shirt collars, or any other wardrobe malfunctions. Where can I buy it? You can typically purchase fashion tape at any local store. Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, or even find it online. How long will it stay on? Fashion tape is really good about sticking onto things. However, if you're that type of person that plays around with tape than you will eventually have to re-apply it. Although if you secure one strip of tape with a lot of it you will have a good amount of hours without having to worry about it falling out. What can you do with it? Fashion tape has various uses. Below you will find a list of what it's most commonly used for.

Oh la la, welcome Christmas layers! The cheer sequin and tulle bring when combined is incredibly magnificent. Today, Barby McQueen layered a baggy shirt with a tulle/sequin mini dress. She slided the right side of the shirt so the sequined strap of the dress would show which added cheer to the sequin in the baggy shirt. Barby added a bright red lip purse to make the tulle from the dress stand out from all the outfit. Considering the cold weather she wore a pair of black ankle boots to make the outfit feel a bit more winter holiday friendly. For more on Barby's outfit please check out our Instagram and Facebook.

The most stressful situation during holiday shopping is the given moment when you're picking something out for a friend and you're tempted to keep it and place it in your closet! The little stylish voices tell you 'shoes, bags, makeup, clothes.. I need it all!!' and later you find a way to convince yourself that indeed you do need it all when of course you know you should be placing the gifts in their boxes. Walking to work past Bergdorf Goodman and on the window display, you see a pair of Dolce & Gabbana shoes you simply dream of having. Besides your birthday month, Christmas is the perfect time to treat yourself to the gift you window shop every day for. In reality for every gift you buy for someone we recommend you buy yourself something too! Shoes: Dolce & Gabbana |
