easy does it

Bikini.com bychari shark tooth necklace  |  gifted Rue Gembon Daya rose gold necklace  |  gifted Rebecca Minkoff horoscope necklace

Recent acquisitions to incorporate easily into my wardrobe include a soft, cozy grey cashmere sweater from H&M (similar) - a grey piece that I surprisingly don't have in my closet - and a few dainty gold necklaces that I've literally had around my neck ever since I got them. I've just been piling them on! The shark tooth necklace, I'm just obsessed with. I keep looking around for more. And whether or not you believe in horoscopes and all that entails, this Rebecca Minkoff necklace is just too chic to leave out. And the Rue Gembon Daya necklace is a no-brainer, no matter what your style is. 

And with that, I'll be giving away the Rue Gembon necklace soon, it's a simple yet sophisticated necklace that I know will match anyone's style, so stay tuned!

The only thing better than wearing this outfit to an apple-picking farm was realizing that I had unintentionally dressed like a pumpkin, which I was surprisingly not bothered by. Today, I introduce you to the little Lam, the sister that doubles as an efficient photographer after Landon, whose talents lie in academics and athletics, whose personality so differs from my own - and all the while, is still one of my best friends.

vintage polka dot silk shirt (peplum version)  |  H&M eyelet inset skirt  |  Zara heels  |  c/o Boostcase hybrid case

When we all have careers in the future, we're all going to have to wear a uniform like this someway or the other. That constricting yet flattering high waisted, knee-length skirt and a pair of black stilettos to keep you grounded. I won't go down without a fight, I made sure the skirt was sheer, lace, with a neon slip and I threw some prints on it - you can never go wrong with polka dots. My life motto basically:  you can never go wrong with polka dots, eyelet lace and neon.

PS: I finally found the perfect accessory for my iPhone, this Boostcase has a detachable, rechargeable battery pack. It's everything.

So much flow and comfort in this outfit, I could probably sleep in it.  

A quick post because honestly, I'm too tired and sore to type. Yes guys, I've started yoga. Follow me on Twitter to hear my complaints. No but really, don't be lazy like me.

In the midst of studying for finals, I was surprised with a package from SheInside and inside was this beautiful floral chiffon shirt - I just couldn't wait to wear it, hence, the slight wrinkles on the shirt. It reminds me of a Hawaiian shirt gone mainstream with its coral colors and familiar floral pattern. It's such an easy piece to style and if you see me in the summer - chances are, I'll probably be wearing this shirt with some form of denim cutoffs and wayfarers. Don't judge me, it's summer.

Boyfriend jeans and a T-shirt may sound like a weekend, casual, stay-at-home outfit. But throw on some minimal neon heels and a statement necklace and boy, you've got an outfit. The dip-dye detailing doesn't hurt either. I can't get enough of minimalistic shoes, if you've been following my blog, you'll know just what I mean. Onto more important issues, I just need these next two weeks to be over so that summer 2012 can officially begin!

A simple outfit with a nude blazer, a white button down and a pair of easy Big Star jeans - I wanted my bling (yes, I just said that) neon rhinestone necklace and my new Sam Edelamn babies to shine. If you guys follow me on Instagram (@kristengracelam), you would've seen these pretty little gems first! They were my actual birthday present for myself, because apparently, turning 21 made me kind of ignorant to how much money I have in my bank account. These Sam Edelman Yelenas are the perfect marriage between comfort and beauty with its chunky heel and metal detail. I just couldn't resist adding this pair to my collection.

More to come soon!

LATE NIGHT WITH JIMMY FALLON

thrifted gray T  |  Zara Hawaiian skirt  |  black strappy sandals 

It's kind of funny that my new favorite comfortable T advertises a show that I've never watched, but hey. It's the softest T-shirt I own. And tell me these pictures don't scream Hawaii. The colors, the sun, the skirt! This was part one (of ten?) of my birthday present to myself. I kind of splurged on this and you know what? No regrets. No regrets at all.

My birthday suit consisted of a girlier ruffled skirt under a floral silk shirt and my instant tough chic Senso shoes. Paulina gave me this awesome Flintstone-glam necklace and I've been wearing it the past couple days to work, to bed, to school. Yeah, I'm gonna rock Flintstone-glam until it's trendy - pun intended. 

By the way, it's been long overdue, but check out my Wiseling feature - some tips and tricks to intense vintage shopping. Head on over here and tell me what you think!
