My Letter To Santa

Christmas Wishlist 2014 by trend-ish

Blush duos are my new obsession.

Besides spending Christmas Day with my loved ones, being healthy and happy [which is the most important], there's always some other stuff that a fashion junkie will ask for. This is my third letter to Santa on Trend-ish [see this and this] and I gotta say he's being really good to me each year! Maybe I'm a good girl?

What's on your wishlist?

Dreaming of a True Autumn

Dreaming of a True Fall by trend-ish

I was born on winter: March 11. Only ten days away from the first day of spring. I live in a country where the whole year is summer. My favorite season of them all is fall. 
Ironic how none of these facts click!

In my opinion, the perfect weather is the high 60's. Why? Because it lets you play with different styles, layers and accessories. I adore oversized sweaters and using scarfs as the signature accessory. This look is a wish my heart makes because I could never wear this set on 86 degrees.

Enjoy autumn!

The $7.80 Jeans!

The $7.80 Jeans! by trend-ish featuring a red lipstick

Have you heard about the $7.80 jeans from Forever 21? I have them all: royal blue, grey and navy blue. They are not the best quality jeans, but come on, three pairs of jeans for $23.40? I think that's a deal! They are comfortable, low-rise, dark and easy to combine. 

Let's face it, genuine jeans are not comfortable at all, since they are made of true denim material. They may look amazing (they really do), but they feel stiff and for the people who lives in cold weather, authentic jeans get reaaaally cold. 

Today I'm sharing ideas on how to style and make these jeans look totally expensive. This is my very own/personal taste and, as you can see, I like to wear skinny jeans with oversized tops.

Which look is your favorite?

Santurce Es Ley 5

When it comes to art, fashion is always present.

My neighborhood was celebrating art this weekend: Santurce Es Ley 5. Independent artists from around the world came to San Juan, Puerto Rico to express themselves in our street walls. This was my first time attending and I'll make sure to go back next year. As I said before, fashion was somehow present in this artistic event, not only because fashion is a form of art, but because I saw, literally, vintage clothes rags and painted mannequins in some of the exhibitions.

OOTD:

My outfit was all about feeling comfy, so I grabbed my fave sleeveless t-shirt, paired it with my fave shorts and added my fave side purse. For the hair, no bangs. I did the twist hair crown, only on the sides.

Top and shorts: Forever 21

Sunnies: Gastby

Purse: Stone & Co.

Watch and earrings: Swatch

But first...

But first... by trend-ish featuring a leather tote

Hi fashion nation! 

Today I'm sharing an outfit inspiration, where the main star is the Celfie shirt. I'm a big fan of graphic tees since they're so easy to style and can be a transitional piece, depending on the combination and accessories. 

I bought mine on Etsy because the original one  wasn't available at the time. I wore it on Saturday. I'm very disappointed because with one wash the brand faded away. Now I can style it with my pajama pants for a movie night at home. (Just trying to find something positive about the whole experience). 

This combo was inspired in a day at work. A pencil floral skirt with black bag / shoes and a statement necklace makes the whole outfit look sophisticated without losing the fresh and vibrant summer vibe. You'll feel comfortable enough for a long day at work and maybe later you can hit an after work happy hour, with pink or red lips.


How would you style your graphic tee?

xx,
Teresa

New York City Way

New York Visit 2013 by trend-ish featuring flat tops

This is the 4th year in a row in which I take some days to visit the enchanting streets of NYC. Every year I feel the urge to visit my second home, at least for a weekend, and that's exactly what I'll do next month!

I don't even feel like a tourist anymore, I feel like a resident that comes a goes (sadly). That's why my style for the cold weather in the city is very different from the one I used to wear four years ago... very different.

This is one of the outfits I'll be wearing, but I haven't decided if it'll look better at day or night. 

What do you think?
