Inspired: Cali Style


Over the weekend, I (Whitney R), went to LA for the first time. It was actually my first time on the West Coast. I won a trip to the 2011 BET Awards. It was pretty exciting to see the process of the show… how they literally have two minutes to change a set for the next artist performance. Overall though, if you aren’t an A-list celebrity, you have a better view from your TV at home.

Anyways, the LA weather is interesting. During the day, it’s in the 80’s which feels great but at night when it hits the lower 60’s its cold. Over here on the East Coast, VA, it’s like 100 and it’s still steaming at night. One would assume that it’d be pretty hot over there all the time. I observed the fashion out there and how the people take their warm daytime look to a cool night out look. Oh and I was super excited when I saw a girl walking around with UGGs and Shorts! So mad I left mine at home. Make sure you get some - UGG boots available at BANK Fashion. Yall know from reading that I am in love with cute casual style

Check out my LA inspired style below:

Nicole Scherzinger's Crop Sweater Style


Singer and X Factor host Nicole Scherzinger was spotted in Miami a few days ago. Nicole showed off her skinny little waist by wearing a crop sweater with skinny jeans and flip flops. If anyone knows her sweater, comment below! I'm loving this look. As you know I'm (Whitney R) all into the casual but cute style.

Hi both Whitney's!
Can ya'll please do a post that is inspired by Janelle Monae's style?
Thanks!

Janelle's style is very unique. She stated before that she's attracted to a classic look. She loves the suits with oxfords along with ties and bow ties. It's not a look that everyone can pull off but she wears it well.

Hot Miami Styles Giveaway: Week 1 Winner!!

Congrats to Marte!! She’s our Week 1 Winner.
She left us this comment:

Omg, they have so many awesome dresses, hard to choose! But in august I’m going to a wedding, and I would really love to be wearing the "Lilac Striped Bandage Dress"! -But I’m a size small and that one you only have in Medium and Large. So maybe the "Golden Yellow One Shoulder Strap Bandage Dress" would be my price if I win. They are both beautiful and would go great to a wedding and to the summer that is upon us

Marte, please email getwhitit@gmail.com with your item choice, size, and address information. Thanks for participating!

Hey I was hoping if you girls could help recreate Rihanna's outfit the night she went out with Katy Perry. I especially love the shoes! Thanks!

Thanks for the request! Rihanna headed out to dinner back in mid April with some friends and then later partied with Katy Perry. She wore a low cut sexy red dress with red pumps. We tried to find some fairly priced items to achieve the look. If you are looking for the low cut, I would recommend the Ruched Multi-way Dress from Victoria Secret. Great option for less.
