The hunt for the sequin distressed jean look and Umbrella club LA online

Hello again readers, 

Now that we are all well into the new year; any girl worth her heels and lace is searching for the ultimate valentines day ensemble,  and I too long for a look to guide my style choices for the new year. I believe that look starts with the very popular distressed jean look. This is not a new style or trend by a long shot! I grew up during the nighties when poor people patented this look without effort. Now thanks to brands like Abercrombie and Fitch, American Eagle, and Aeropostale, we pay for the look and call this style the boyfriend jeans look.

I like this look because you can build easily with this look. For example you put a pair of leggings underneath to build a theme. this Idea works best with Boyfriend jeans that have larger holes in them. I myself wear this combo with high boots, my crazy pizza shoes from converse, or heels in the evening.

Sequin Jeans 

I fell in love with the sequin denim look as soon I stumbled upon them during  a random search for a cute pair of sequin leggings. Unfortunately I seem to lean toward the more expensive of tastes. Every search yielded the worst result an e-shopper like myself could find: "out of Stock". Here are some of my top looks for sequin jeans.

I wish I could buy this! I love the skinny jean fit. I would wear this with my Micheal Korrs heels! So much in love with this look!

Mod cloth shoe review

by: ako-kitty



hello bloggers,

Sorry for the long wait. I didn't want to make any posts telling people what to buy, because I think christmas should be more personal. Whenever I venture out to stores during the holiday season I buy for others but I also buy for myself. This year I stuck to my budget and got more for others and purchased my personal gifts before the Christmas season was in full swing.



Today I want to review one of my personal gifts to my self this season. I found the mod cloth website completely by accident maybe a month or two before xmas. I posted to my Pinterest board in hopes that one day I would buy these shoes. These shoes came in five different colors: cream, navy, mint, pink, and purple.

"dance instead of walk" ModCloth shoes
both size 7 

Both of these were absolutely adorable and I feel in love at first sight. Priced at $39.99 each I couldn't decide which suited me more!

when I come to an impasse I find myself deciding on both. I purchased them one at a time however hoping one wouldn't sell out before the other. I originally purchased the mint green version. Shipping was surprisingly fast. I didn't wait longer than 4 days. I  ordered these in size 7, when I tried these shoes on they fit very snug, very comfortable. However when I started walking in these shoes for more than an hour or so I realized that it pinched the tip of my toes with little wiggle room for my toes.

I love the style but I needed to go up a size for this brand of shoes. I suggest if you don't want to risk buying the wrong size get a half size larger than your normal size if available / or a full size for the wiggle room; otherwise these shoes are great! Perfect day to night shoes plus I feel like dancing when I wear them.
