Remix: Chevron Printed Shorts

Sooo my shorts probably look familiar because I, uh, featured them yesterday, HA.  Hey, don't judge.  I like re-wearing stuffs from my closet.  In fact, I kind of want to re-style them all week to see how many combos I can come up with *scratches head* maybe another time! I do want to do a style challenge or some sort though.

ANYWHO, I'm actually not wearing anything new today!  Yeah, that's right.  I'm feelin' EXTRA "sensible', ha.  I styled this fab +Talbots blouse HERE in a chic work-friendly look a while back.  I told y'all this blouse was mad versatile - looks amazing dressed up AND down.  Let me quickly share my thought process behind today's LOTD.

"Heck yes, this blouse would look awesome with my shorts because both have hot pink hues.  Sweet. What do I wear on top though? OH, a white blazer! I'm gonna throw on a white crossbody to match, and accessorize with a gold necklace to spice thangs up." Hashtag deep thoughts of Kimberly Kong, ha!  

I know you guys can't see this because I didn't take a full body shot, but for the record, I wore beige heels  Neutral canvas for my brights!  Beige heels are my go-to for sure.

Blazer:  H&M

Blouse: Talbots

Bag: Deb

Shorts: c/o Haute Rogue ($48)

Necklace: c/o Hanuel ($24)

Let's take a look at the office-friendly look I was talkin' about earlier...

Which outfit do you guys prefer? The casual ensemble above or the polished work-friendly look below?

The Neon Blazer

I'm SUPER excited to share today's look with you guys. I have a lot to tell you so let's get right to it. Let's start with my fab new blazer.  This stunning neon jacket is available for $33.75 HERE (originally $45) at Cheeky Peach.  I highly recommend this piece!  I know I'll be wearing it all summer long.  The color's super trendy, and the fit's really flattering (slightly oversized - think boyfriend fit).  A girl can never have too many blazers - I recommend purchasing them in different colors, fits, and prints!  FYI: also available in royal blue.  Use code KIM to get free shipping!  You're welcome in advance.

Let's take a closer look at my necklace courtesy of Sparkles & Pop.  Gorgeous, right?  Available here for $48.  I know the piece is kind of pricey, but trust me when I say it's worth EVERY freakin' penny. The quality's off the hook.  The photo really doesn't do it justice.  If you're looking for new statement jewelry, check 'em out STAT.  I actually featured them on SS yesterday (clicky HERE if you missed aforementioned the post).  Yeah, I'd be their official brand ambassador if I could, ha.  

My outfit sans blazer.  Love, love, LOVE my new Haute Rogue shorts - available here for $48.  A great alternative to denim shorts!  The fab watercolor-esque chevron print is perfect for summer, and the loose fit (cinched by an elastic waistband) is flattering AND comfortable.  FYI:  US residents get free shipping on their orders.

I'm Bringin' Sexy Back

TGIF! For today's post, I've styled a sexy GNO look for y'all.  I'm gonna do that every Friday from here on out to celebrate the weekend...even though I work like a crazy person regardless, ha.  Hashtag life of a musician.  ANYWHO, I styled my fave peplum skirt with a sexy crop today on SS.  A quick and easy formula to follow since you really can't go wrong with this combo.

Here's a full body shot for y'all!  So sorry today's post is short, but I'm totally exhausted.  I've been studying like a psycho for an upcoming doctoral exam so I'm kind of brain-dead (lack of sleep and all that jazz).  I'll make sure I do a better write-up next time!  

A close-up shot of my necklace from Sparkles & Pop!  I'm seriosuly OBSESSED with their collection.  This piece is available HERE for $28.  I can't recommend it enough.  I'll be featuring more of their items in the near future so keep an eye out.  If you're lookin' for amazing statement jewelry, make sure to check 'em out.  You won't be disappointed!  OH, and they're currently giving customers 20% off on pastel pieces, and errbody gets a free gift with a necklace purchase (!!!)
