I prefer to dress casually in most days, especially in the warmer seasons because I want to be as comfortable as possible. Contrary to today’s colder weather (finally), it’s been real hot in LA. So naturally, I live in oversized everything so that my skin has more room to breathe. This button up looks like a men’s shirt but I really don’t mind, I’ve been drawn to menswear more lately because of my new ‘do.

Reminding myself from time to time that less is more. I love accessorizing so much that sometimes I forget to appreciate a beautiful piece. For this outfit, I wanted all the focus on the shirt dress. I kept it minimal so that the smallest of details are highlighted: the flowy sheer material, the long slits and the silver rings on the sleeve. Simple, but sophisticated.

We all know that a good first impression is very important, since you only get one chance in making one! It says a lot about you. Not only you make an impression in your words and actions, but also how you dress. So here's my first-day-of-school outfit tip: dress cute but conservative. You want your presence to be known, but you don't have to wear something skimpy. You also want people to take you seriously, but you don't have to be boring at it! For this post, I'm wearing a button-up top with boxy sleeves for that extra attitude, and a skort (meaning, a skirt and shorts combined) to keep the look fun, but still reserved. Dress it up with heels or dress it down with your favorite pair of sneakers!
