[May OOTD Contest] American Flags & Camo

Leave a reply

camoamericanflag

What’s up! It’s that time again for our monthly contest and since Memorial Day is this month, the contest for May is centered around American flag print and camo. These are two of my favorite prints and I think they go very well together. I just bought a pair of camo boots and just got a pair of American flag tights from Trixi’s Closet as well. I can’t wait to wear them together!

For this month’s contest, send in a pic of yourself in either camo or American flag print (you can do both!) to thebosschicfiles@gmail.com by May 15th. I will post the contestants a few days later and give everyone until Memorial Day to vote! The winner will get a gift from Trixi’s Closet and of course our readers will vote for the winner. Since these trends are so popular at the moment, we should get a lot of entries for the contest! Males can even participate in this one so send us your best look and show us what you got!

[Fashion Files] Springtime Leather

Leave a reply

springleather

Who said you can’t wear leather during the Spring and Summer seasons? They lied! While most people steer away from leather in the hotter months, it’s a trend that’s really starting to pick up this year. However to pull off the look during this time of year, you can’t wear it like you would in the winter. Cutout leather pieces and colored leather are good ways to add the look into your wardrobe for warm weather. Pairing the pieces with bright colors, light fabrics, and cute sandals help keep the overall look in season without appearing hot and stuffy.

Below I’ve put together a look that I thought would be dope for the spring/summer months, using a cutout leather jacket and booties. The jacket was found at NastyGal.com and is to DIE for butttt it will cost you $318 lol. Don’t worry I won’t be buying it either, but I’m sure you can find similar pieces online if you check the right places. I would tuck the tank top below into the skirt and accessorize with silver jewelry to complete the look. Check out the look I put together below and if you’re interested in buying any of the pieces, you can click the picture to be directed to the site! Are you feeling the trend??

[Fashion Files] Men’s Graphic Tees by Xochi

Leave a reply

xochi

My male readers are always getting on me about not blogging about men’s fashion enough, so I have a treat for them today. Xochi is a dope men’s clothing line based out of LA that sells graphic tees, polo shirts, and denim. Their graphic tees are specifically unique because they epitomize the “All-American” guy. Their tees are inspired by things their team finds around them, the cities they live in, movies they watch, music they listen to, and even the animalistic characteristics they see within themselves.

That definitely explains the creativity behind their designs! For example the “Wolfman” tee is a wolf’s head, but the body is dressed in a suit with hands adjusting the tie. It’s the tiny details like those that separate the big brands from those that struggle. I live for clothing items that can’t be found anywhere else, so this brand is definitely a good look. I picked out a few of my favorite graphic tees from their line which you can catch after the break. You can visit their site at http://shop.xochi.us/ and also follow them on Instagram at @xochi_la. Fellas can you rock with Xochi??

OPI Euro Centrale Collection

Leave a reply

eurocentrale

What female doesn’t love nail polish? Don’t worry I’ll wait! I look forward to the different nail lacquer collections that come out seasonally, especially from OPI and Essie’s. OPI is on to it’s next European collection which has become one of my favorites after releasing their Holland and Germany lines last year. The Euro-Centrale collection is no different, with it’s wide range of bold and pastel shades.

 Some of my favorite colors in this line are OY-Another Polish Joke!, My Paprika is Hotter Than Yours, Can’t Find My Czechbook, You’re Such A BudaPest, and OPI… Eurso Euro. I have to get these! I usually buy a couple of shades from each OPI collection that’s released, but I’m seriously thinking about checking EBay or Amazon for this full collection so I can have them all. They’re all so different, it’s hard to only pick a few! Are you feeling the latest OPI line? Which shades are made for you?

[Fashion Files] The Best Tanks Ever!

Leave a reply

mossimotanks

I LOVE Mossimo tank tops! These are the only tank tops that I buy now! I used to be hard on Old Navy’s but I have to get an extra small for them to fit me just right, and they still don’t stretch as much as I like. On the other hand, these Mossimo tanks fit perfectly! Now I will say that I have a very small waist in comparison to my hips, however my stomach is far from flat. This is one of my main insecurities, but you’ll never know (wait I just told you lol) because I’m constantly getting compliments about how tiny I am. It’s an illusion and I owe it to well fitted clothing!

I don’t think people realize how much the way your clothes fit can make or break your outfit. Wearing tanks that are too small can make you look like you have no boobs and a muffin top. You definitely don’t want to squeeze into them! At the same time, a tank that’s too big just looks sloppy and tacky. I hate when my tanks are too big because I constantly have to fool with the straps to keep my bra covered. So if you’re looking for the perfect tank for the spring and summer, definitely stop by Target and cop you a few Mossimo tanks! They’re only $8 a piece but sometimes you can catch them on special. They have plenty of designs to choose from and they are in stock year round. Thank me later!

[Fashion Files] Crazy for Camo

Leave a reply

celebslovecamo

Camo is taking the world by storm and I’m not mad one bit! I love it!! Camo print has been around for decades but just recently caught on in the fashion world as an actual trend. Some people have been wearing it for ages, specifically men, but over the past few months it has really picked up as a staple item of style. Nowadays all of our favorite celebs are rocking it, but Rihanna wears it best to me! Her style game is just crazy to me so she can do no wrong in fashion.

Since I personally feel that everyone should have at least one camo print item in their closets, I’ve searched online and made a gallery of some hot camo pieces that I thought were dope. Keep calm because I included some stuff for men too! You can check those out after the break :)  Is camo a trend that you’re into?? Post a comment with your thoughts!

XOXO,
