I’m not about chasing every trend or forcing outfits that don’t feel natural. I love bold jewelry. I’m happiest in a great pair of jeans, a flattering top, a pop of gold, and a fun shoe that ties it all together. That’s my formula - and I believe everyone deserves to find theirs.

Wearing vs. Styling: Why It Matters

Anyone can throw on clothes. Styling is what makes them yours. You can wear a plain tank and denim. Or you can style it - with statement earrings, layered necklaces, cool sunglasses, and a pulled-back bun. The difference? Intention. Styling isn’t about having more, it’s about doing more with what you have. Here are my styling rules that make life easier.

‍

• Monochrome = Instant Chic

Wearing one color head-to-toe always looks put-together, and it’s the easiest way to feel styled in 30 seconds.

‍

• Find Your Formula

My go-to combo: good jeans + flattering top + a fun shoe + gold jewelry. Figure out what makes you feel good and repeat it with confidence.

‍

• Bold Accessories Are Game-Changers

Don’t underestimate the power of statement earrings, a sleek shoulder bag, or a cool pair of sunglasses. These finish a look - even when you’re just wearing basics.

‍

• Match the Mood - Then Elevate It

Style can reflect how you feel or alter it. If I’m feeling strong, I’ll go for clean lines, structured jeans, and bold accessories that make me feel grounded and pulled together. If I want to feel softer or more chill, I’ll reach for oversized denim, a cozy top, and something relaxed like simple hoops. Your outfit doesn’t have to fake a mood - it can support it. And sometimes, just putting on a fun shoe or your favorite gold earrings is enough to shift your energy.

‍

• Balance Proportions Like a Pro

Oversized top? Pair it with fitted bottoms. Baggy pants? Go with a cropped or tucked-in top. This one styling trick pulls everything together.

‍

• Repeat Your Favorites. Loudly.

Wearing the same outfit again isn’t boring, it’s iconic. Confidence makes a repeat feel brand new.

‍

• Use Pinterest with Purpose

Save outfits that feel like you, not just what’s trending. Recreate the vibe with pieces you already own.

‍

• Don’t Overdo Trends

Love a current trend? Add one or two into your outfit, but don’t feel pressure to wear them all. Style isn’t about proving anything - it’s about feeling like yourself.

‍

• Notice What Flatters You - Then Repeat It

You don’t need to follow a strict list of fashion rules, but understanding your body type can be a helpful starting point. Pay attention to what makes you feel confident—maybe it’s high-rise jeans that hug just right, a wrap top that highlights your waist, or wide-leg pants that make you feel tall and powerful. Once you know what works for you, styling gets way easier and way more fun.

Because when you style instead of just wear, you show up differently. And you deserve to feel that every day.
