Transcendental Trace

One of the many projects I was assigned this quarter, but I'm very excited about this one! I discovered I loved designing for men's. I had a blast with this project sketching accessories, details, and drawing my model for my clothing line Transcendental Trace. Enjoy!

Urban Outfitters Presents Elemental Essence

In this class my teacher treated us like a design team for Urban Outfitters. The class got split up into groups of five and we all got assigned an article of clothing. I was assigned dresses, and my other teammates were assigned, knit tops, woven tops, pants, and jackets. We all had to have a cohesive line and also have the same DNA's throughout our designs. Below are my designs and some of the outfit inspirations we put together with all of our sketches. Enjoy!

Lace-Up Attire

The lace-up attire is currently trending this season. Lace-up tops, skirts, dresses, sweaters, flats and the famous lace-up over the knee heel are all being worn this season. The zig zag lacing add an element of feminine seduction to your garment or shoes. You can take the lace-up trend and make it classy, edgy, or feminine. You can never go wrong with this trend but be careful with what you match it with. Below I created some outfits on Polyvore and made some collages of some of my favorite lace-up outfits to inspire you to try this trend out. Check it out!

Fall Hues in the Hills

I want to start off by saying I'm sorry it has been awhile since I've posted a LookBook on Shea Anything. Los Angeles, school, and friends have officially consumed my life! I'm not complaining but I have been missing writing on my blog! So I'm getting my life together and will hopefully be back posting once a week. Now that I'm done venting to you all, let's now get to the outfit! As we all know suede is currently trending this fall and so is lace-up attire and mid calf boots! I fell in love with this dress and bought it even though it was two sizes too big. We are all guilty of this shopping misbehavior. But I was dedicated on making it work so I matched my oversized dress with a brown belt. It doesn't get to cold in Los Angeles but we all still want to have the fall vibe going on in our outfits. When in doubt go monochrome. Hope you enjoy this look and check below where you could get some of the same items!

Dress: Forever 21

Shoes: Nordstrom

The High Neckline

A very modest trend is among us and it is the high neckline ladies. This style is very classic and will make you look put together with little effort. Not only are high necklines flattering on many body types, they can be styled to look many different ways. The high neckline is featured on many different garments such as tank tops, dresses, t-shirts, blouses, and of course the turtleneck. Whether your style is edgy, classic, girly, or preppy high necklines can work for you. This trend is versatile and classic, so it can always have a place in your closet. Below are some inspirations boards and some outfits I created on Polyvore so you ladies can get inspired to try this classic trend! Enjoy lovelies!

A Day in Denver

Fall is my favorite time of year. It is when oversized sweaters, trench coats, and boots come out to play for a couple of months. I am originally from Denver, Colorado and this past week I went home for fall break. Wanting to revisit my hometown and walk around downtown Denver, I decided to dress casual with an oversized turtle neck sweater, a leather mini skirt, and my comfortable black boot wedges. This outfit was perfect for the transition from summer to fall because it's still warm enough to show some legs but cold enough to have the fall vibe going on in your outfit. This sweater was a new purchase which I'm very excited about because it is featuring a kimono sleeve which is one of my favorite DNA's. This blog post I waned to show you guys some pictures of where I'm from so you can see a little bit of my background before I made the move to sunny Los Angeles about year ago. I hope you enjoy your trip throughout downtown Denver lovelies and check below where you could get some of the same items!
