Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone! This is what I will be wearing for church and dinner with family/friends tomorrow. I purchased everything but the shoes this week, not intending to wear them together but ultimately I couldn't resist this girlie mix of pastels and bows. I won't be posting tomorrow in observance of the holiday, so I hope you have a great weekend and I will see you Monday! Which version do you prefer - tucked or untucked? What are you wearing on Easter?

The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay." - Matthew 28:5-6

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Casual Lately

Inspiration: B. Jones Style

I threw this look together yesterday and wore the bottom version for errands. This army belt is probably my all-time favorite $5 find, and I haven't worn it in quite some time so I wanted to create an outfit around it. This is one of those outfits that I was more excited about in person than it looks in pictures, however, for the chilly Orlando weather right now it was the perfect blend of comfy neutrals!

Jacket: Gap, $52 (similar, similar, similar, similar, similar)
Shirt: Forever 21, $12 (similar, similar)
Jeans: Limited, $37
Belt: Bakers, $5 (similar)
Heels: Aldo, $50 (similar, similar)
Boots: Chinese Laundry c/o
Purse: Juicy Couture/Neiman Marcus Last Call, $120

Also, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I went shopping this week and my favorite store for new arrivals was.... drumroll please... American Eagle. They captured my boho-loving-heart for casual clothes, and I left with the white dress, navy embroidered top and aztec shorts below, and this top in olive for the beach. The print on the other dress was cute but I didn't feel comfy in the super stretchy/tight fit. What's your favorite store right now?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Blue Willow

Inspiration: Pinterest

My obsession with Blue Willow print began when I read the book by Doris Gates as a little girl, and continued when I saw the inspiration photo of Victoria Beckham in InStyle Magazine circa 2005 (approximate). To this day, VB's Cavalli dress is one of my favorite dresses on the planet and so to say I'm excited to find similar prints in stores right now is an understatement. Today I'm showing two ways to wear this trend - one for a night out, and one for day. I picked up the pencil skirt first, but I found the dress on Monday so I'm planning to return the skirt. I love both, but prefer the vibrant blue of the dress, and for my life I need outfits for dinners and nighttime events way more often than I need office wear. Would you wear a Blue Willow-type print? Which one is your favorite?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Wishful Thinking

Even though the weather is chilly in Orlando right now, I wore the top version of this outfit for shopping on Monday. It was a bright sunny day so it wasn't totally out of context, but it was certainly wishful thinking that warmer spring days are coming soon. Boots also could've worked (bottom pic), and I did a quick scan of my outfits over the past year (here) and I wear this mint + yellow color combo a lot, as well as this necklace and these jeans together. (If you are choosing a colorful statement necklace to add to your wardrobe, coordinating with a denim color is a great way to decide!) Which shoes would you wear?

Alright ladies, let's imagine for a moment that you were offered a free pair of shoes from ALDO - which ones would you choose?! There are just so many great options so I thought I'd ask for your votes to help narrow it down (I'm picking a pair this week to style three ways on the blog, and stay tuned because I *might* be giving away a pair too!!). Would you go for something sleek and futuristic like above, or something a bit more boho and casual like below? Which pair would you choose?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: The Quirky Sweater

Inspiration: Harper's Bazaar

Proof I wore this outside. Facial expression optional.

Mother Nature has decided to give us December weather in March this year, so my response? How about a quirky sweater to lighten the mood. My inspiration photo is not meant to be a literal translation, but rather it was somewhere in the depths of my subconscious that the photo both whispered to me to want to own it, and motivated me to wear it with pink jeans. The light pink jeans with nude pumps is great for a more dressy occasion, and the darker jeans and ankle boots is what I wore for brunch last weekend. Quirky sweaters: yay or nay? Which outfit do you prefer?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Laid Back

Inspiration: Harper's Bazaar

This is one of my all-time favorite inspiration photos. I love the boho, laid back vibe, and this beaded necklace from Sarah Aghili felt like just the thing I needed to capture a similar feeling in my own outfits. I wore the second look with the white top recently, and I plan to wear the denim-on-denim as soon as it warms up. Which outfit(s) would you wear?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Nautical

Nautical doesn't even begin to describe it, ladies. I started with one idea and the sea-faring ideas just kept coming. I posted the outfits in chronological order of how I came up with them, and the white shorts could also be subbed for a skirt or cropped pants if you prefer something longer. Which one is your favorite?

Onasis FashionToday's Everyday Fashion: Random Musings

I didn't plan ahead on outfit posts (sorry guys), so instead I'm sharing some pictures from St. Augustine yesterday! I was there shooting a VISIT FLORIDA video, and wound up wearing this turquoise top from yesterday's giveaway post (the only item that I kept). I'm also sharing three Daytime morning show segments I shot in December, see below. It was my first-ever time using a teleprompter and we did the segments in just one take to save time, so I was hoping they would come out okay. I talk about the polka dot trend, three ways to wear a blazer, and winter trends. Hope you enjoy! :-)
