Flor De Maria Fashion

{Sunday In LA}

DSC_1574

The weather forecast was wrong, horray! A ‘typical’ lovely Sunday in LA and a perfect day for a maxi dress. Inspired by my dear friend and fellow fashion blogger Flor De Maria, we went out to do some shopping yesterday and with summer colors on my mind. She has amazing style and she’s queen of always adding a pop of color to her outfits.  While not necessarily bright, I added some color for today with a pink/orange dress. Tribal prints still going strong this season and a maxi dress is the easiest Sunday outfit for a Spring/Summer day.  A few pics and we headed on to the Pasadena Flea Market – first time for me. I was hunting down deals like you’ve never seen…a dress, blouse and necklace all for only $27! After a little altering the dress will be perfect..pictures to come.  I was focused on clothing today but next time I’m hitting up the vintage suitcases and amazing chairs.  What a lovely day and weekend with my girl Flor. Check out her chic style at Flordemariafashion.com. Us fashion bloggers can have way to much fun together shopping, eating and taking pictures all weekend long. Loved it all.

Thank you to all my many followers and hope you had a lovely weekend. xx

WHAT I’M WEARING:

Maxi Dress – H & M
Shoes – Sam Edelman Lace Up Booties
Scarf – H & M

Style Wax Poetic Monthly | August 2010

The month of August is at an end and it’s the first day of September, wow. Life flies by, and so do the posts on blogs. The disadvantage of reading from a blog, unlike reading from a magazine, is that great information can be here and gone in a few days.  I’m starting a ‘Monthly Round Up’ post which breaks down everything I covered in August.

Music Mondays featured Ra Ra Riot, Animal Collective, School of Seven Bells, and Blonde Redhead. As usual, most Music Mondays feature a free MP3 download.

Friday’s Summer Style with Friends | Flor De Maria Fashion

FLOWER in its best form can offer beauty, kindness and the ability to bring light to one’s day.  Flor De Maria ,(Flor meaning flower) lives very true to her name and her style shines through just the same!  I was happy to feature Flor De Maria,a successful PR Professional and Fashion Stylist from San Jose California for this Summer Style With Friends.  When I think of Flor, I see a go-getter in career and life, one who has the ablitiy to give love and encouragement to all those around her and manages it all looking flawlessly with a cute outfit, great acccesoires and a beautiful pair of heels on!

After gaining much success as an On-Air Journalist and PR professional in sports, Flor knew there was much more she could offer the world with her ablity to share her love and eye for fashion.  After growing up in Peru until 14, her style seems to be reflective of her cultural background, mixed with pieces of trends, and love for all things chic.  Flor’s newest venture, is a successful Fashion Blog offering daily fashion tips, a shoe of the week, outfit posts and also a Spanish version. Flor De Maria Fashion is a must see! Her Style Set features a night on the town outfit for cocktails with friends on a Summer night.

“I would wear this outfit out to drinks with my girls or my boyfriend. I love wearing rompers right now, especially when it gets really hot outside. Blazers are on top of my list, I wear them with everything. I also love big necklaces and coktail rings, I think they are ME.  I am also loving anything leopard at the moment and of course who doesn’t love Louboutins :)” ~ Flor De Maria
