A Day at Play

Today I'm not having such a good day and I'll probably elaborate on why another day, But, despite my bad day, it seems to me that New York is having a great day. The weather is fabulous, so here's a set I created that shows today is a day at play for everyone here. It feels like summer, so why not dress like it. Enjoy and soak up the sun (while it last before there's more rain)!
A Day at Play

Fashionably yours, Amira J

Fashion Inspiration: Pastels

Lately I've been in love with pastels. I even bought a beige colored lace cardigan and pastel pink jeans, but I really don't have anything great to wear with it. Either way the way others have been wearing it inspires me to create my own outfit. My favorite pastel outfit that I have seen so far was an outfit that consisted of a pink button down shirt and light blue skinny jeans.

This outfit is perfect for a nice spring day outing. Florals are so juicy and I definitely need a small side bag to hold my accessories.

Here are different ways you can rock pastels. You can rock it with a blazer or wear a cute dress. I love the blue blazer though, it's my favorite color.


Colored jeans have been a big trend this Spring, so if you're going to rock the colored jeans trend why not try pastel colors. I usually don't like wearing bright color jeans (even though I tried a bright blue once) so a light color would be perfect for me.

You don't have to wear pastel colored clothes to show how much you love pastels, you can just try some pastel colored make-up. I am a huge fan of this. Like I said before I'm not that into being a traffic sign, bright colors are great but I would prefer this light make-up, especially since I don't wear any make-up. I usually go natural.

Add some color to your nails with light colors. They look great with a pastel themed outfit. I would love to try this color.

If you're not that into pastels you can mix and match them with some bright colors. You'll still look great.

I love this necklace. It's from Charlotte Russe. I also love the fact that it has a gold chain; I love gold! And since it's from Charlotte Russe you know it's affordable.

This shirt is fabulous. It's from Forever 21. I love the color and the fabric is light meaning its great for this weather we're feeling here in New York.

I should go shopping soon and update my wardrobe with some of these funky colors. It's spring break here anyway and the weather is fabulous for these looks right now.

Fashionably yours Amira J

I decided to dedicate this diary entry to Beyonce. On Saturday January 7, she and Jay Z brought Blue Ivy into the world. She was named after Beyonce's favorite number, which is Jay -Z's birthday and the day they met. The number is 4 which in Roman numerals is IV (prounced ivy). 4 was also the title of Beyonce's album and blue can from Jay Z's album The Blueprint 3 (if I'm not mistaken). Blue Ivy was born here in New York, my city. Well Congrats to both Beyonce and Jay Z.

Above is a set I created how to shop like Beyonce on a $200 budget and even smell like her with her perfume. I loved the outfit so I decided to recreate it. I hope you guys adore it too. We all know Baby Blue won't be needing this diary entry with her fashionista mom Beyonce.
