Bad Kids

April 23, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

I can’t ever turn down a good throwback garment. The item in question is this metallic, synthetic, glorious, 80s wrap shirt. I paired it with leather leggings, moto boots, and a beanie to give it an edgy going-out vibe. So if you’ll excuse me, I need to go start livin’ on a prayer because girls just…Read More

Just a Little Glamour

January 15, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

After a pretty awful week I decided to blow off some steam in the best way I know how – a photoshoot with fur and sequins. Because what could make a fashionista feel better than a little sparkle? I found this fur coat at the Salvation Army and coveted it for weeks until it finally…Read More

by Celina[zilla_likes]

Yesterday was the Fourth of July and today I’m honoring our country by styling one of it’s signature patterns – the stripe. I’ve been obsessed with maxis lately so when I found this striped beauty while thrifting, I had to have it. What I like about this is the asymmetry of the stripes, it makes…Read More
