Off to a Meshy Fall

OOTD / Lunch & Errands

Location: Burbank

Mesh Dress: Zara (Trf)

Sports Bra: Athleta

Cargo Joggers: Zara (Basic)

Purse: Zara (Women)

Boots: Zara (Basic)

As fall struggles to make a comeback in LA, I'm effortlessly playing in my net dress enjoying the sunny afternoons in Burbank! 

The fun thing about transparent/see-through pieces are the endless possibilities of layering them together with other pieces! Here I have my net dress that you have previously seen on my blog "Unfamiliar Territory". 

Since I liked the look of the first outfit I did with the black sports bra I ended up resorting to another sports bra with an army green color which lead me to an earth tone color palette. If the item itself doesn't suggest fall I guess I have to do it with the color scheme! I paired it with a brown/tan-ish drawstring cargo pants to expand the color palette.

I finished it off with my most comfortable leather high heel ankle boots from Zara's summer '16 collection. But don't worry they have something similar this fall and are as comfy as the pair I have. Here's the reference number for those boots 6100/101/040.

Hope you guys enjoyed this outfit and hopefully it inspired you to create an OOTD for your next outing!

Derby or Oxford?

Hey beautiful people!

Originally I had discussed that my shoes were a women's version of the traditionally known Oxford, but in my recent finding, it is actually a Derby! The reason for this is the lace system.  What do you think my shoes are? Open or Closed lacing? It is open lacing! Silly me!

Quick Fact:

Derby's are also called Blucher, the terms are used interchangably without getting too technical. But there is a slight difference in the two if you'd like to know refer to this video at 2'30".

These babies are so easy to play with. Beige is a subtle neutral color, so you can definitely make it fun contrasting it with colorful socks or maybe ruffled socks for those who want to be adventurous with their palette. 

Here I paired them with Tommy Hilfiger socks that perfectly matched my "Bonjour" red shoulder bag. Matching small details such as earrings to belt, top to shoelaces, and as an example here, bag to socks, can definitely finish off a look.
