Lime & Vine: The Cantaloupe Jumper

Thursday, June 18, 2015

Alright guys, today's post is photo-heavy - just givin' y'all a heads up. I went a little cray with my mom because lighting was pretty good. I'm super excited to partner up with Lime & Vine again on SS. I totally just typed Lime & Wine btw, HAHA. I may or may not be sipping a glass of red as I write this...

ANYWHO, if you missed my post with L&V previously, clicky HERE. I styled FAB joggers in the aforementioned post. I really love their brand. The quality of their stuffs is on POINT! I'm talkin' James Perse x 10. Their t-shirt jumper is hella comfy and cute. Made of 100% cotton, this baby has a low v-neck back and a cuffed ankle hem. It's available in two other colors - I'm wearing cantaloupe in size small FYI - black & glacier grey.

I styled my jumper with a freakin' sexy tribal cuff c/o Sparkles & Pop. I can't recommend them enough. SERIOUSLY! Their jewelry is A+++. I absolutely love this stunning piece! Channel your inner goddess today by copping this STAT, and make sure you use code Kim20 to get an extra 20% off. US residents get free shipping + returns.

A closer look at my arm cuff...

I normally never do these, but I did a back shot for you guys today! Love the v-neck back - effortlessly sexy for sure.

Sensible Stylista x Lyst

Wednesday, June 17, 2015

Super freakin' excited to partner up with Lyst today on SS! Y'all need to check 'em out STAT.

They've partnered with the world's greatest designers and stores and added clever technology to create a personal shopping experience for each and every Lyst user. You can follow your fave brands/people AND receive sale and stock alerts.

Let's take a look at my dashboard! I don't have followers yet because I haven't promoted my account, but I compiled lists on the site for my viewing ease. I REALLY like that they give you ALL the info you need regarding pieces you're interested in (ex. what sizes are in stock, where you can buy the stuffs, what shipping costs are, etc.). Super convenient for sure! In fact, I actually ended up copping the Rebecca Minkoff skirt in the middle.

So anywho, let's talk fashion. Here's today's featured OOTD - 'tis another fab shoot with Ryan Chua. This took place in K-town before an incredible BBQ dinner at Kang Ho Dong Baekjong with my gorgeous new blogger frand Lola Fair and her hubby. Make sure you guys check her out! She was the lead singer in Baby Vox (super famous k-pop girl group). I was a HUGE fan growing up so meeting her was seriously unreal, ha. Oooo, and I got to sing karaoke with her after dinner *huge grin*

Skirt: Rebecca Minkoff c/o Lyst

Top: Charlotte Russe

Good Times in Hollywood

Monday, June 15, 2015

YAY! Time for Sensible Stylista x Ryan Chua: Part 2. For this shoot, we went to Melrose Avenue. What a cool freakin' area - it was definitely one of my fave spots in LA! The boutiques were awesomesauce, and the people were ridiculously stylish. I swear California has such beautiful people.

I don't remember the name of this store, but ISN'T IT BAMF? Look at the (fake but still gorg) flowers! I totally flipped when I saw this. I felt like I was in Alice in Wonderland or somethin'. Anywho, Ryan thought it'd be cool to shoot here because my look matched the store! FYI: everything I'm wearing here is old except my shoes. I copped those recently at TJ Maxx for $30 - yay for great deals.

I absolutely love shift dresses. They're so comfy! I wear 'em out when I want to eat a lot so I can totally stuff my face and still feel good about myself, HA. I had SO much good food on this trip. LA is foodie paradise - on that note, come friend me on Yelp! I'm super proud that I'm an "elite" yelper. Yes, I am a nerd, and no, I'm not sorry.

I actually had a weird experience before shooting this look. Ryan had taken me to Hollywood Boulevard - yes I know it's super touristy, don't judge - and all these peeps were harassing me, trying to sell me all sorts of sh*t I didn't want. Man, it was REALLY stressful! One dude shoved his CD into my hand and asked me for my name so he could sign it. I didn't want to be rude so I accepted even though I didn't want to which was fine UNTIL he freakin' told me I owed him money for it! WHAT THE EFF! Who does that?

I'm a musician myself so I totally understand, but damn, get your work out via YouTube or somethin'. Don't harass errbody around you. He got all pissy when I told him I didn't have cash and demanded that I give his CD back. SMH! No problem bro, I didn't want it in the first place. ANYWHO, lesson learned! I will no longer be nice to meanies trying to rip me off.
