It was only raining on a few blocks in West Hollywood today- really strange. Wanted to watch Alice and Wonderland, but didn't have the patience to wait in line... I'll just wait a few weeks.
Found this Norma Kamali trench coat the other day! It's actually a size bigger, but I kind of like it that way.
I wore it out to breakfast- with a orange silk scarf, American Apparel nylon leggings, and a pair of Lamb strappy sandals.
Also wore my new favorite earrings (that I accidentally broke later on while attempting to adjust the clip-on clasp)...
A few people have written to me recommending that I stick with neutral colors or that I should really consider dressing like those models off-duty. You know what I have to say to that crap? Screw it. Fashion should be fun. There should never be any rules about what you should and shouldn't wear. Matter of fact, I hate those magazine articles that talk about dressing to suit your figure... maybe some people don't want to accentuate their small waistline... maybe some people like showing off their wide hips... maybe some don't want to wear all black just to look thinner... do you get my point?

those people telling you how to dress need to get lives - you look gorgeous in everything you wear and more importantly, you obviously enjoy putting your outfits together. i wish i could find a coat like this but all of them go past way my knees haha x
hi!
just wanna say that you have a fan in me (from Singapore). so thank you for dressing up and having fun! it gives me so much more courage to be wild with my own fashion!
i have a tiny request though - could you possibly do a post on your everyday makeup? i love that it's nude and natural but with that touch of smoky look on your eyes.
keep on blogging and posting photos!
love,
samantha
Amen to that Karla. Your dress sense is fantastic, and your confidence shines through because you dress for yourself. Have a wonderful week :-)
why anyone would read your blog to criticize your style is beyond me. im always excited to see your outfit posts precisely because you don't dress like just another model-off-duty.
ive especially liked your posts lately. you have such an eye for buying vintage!! && i love that you stay true to your own style :)

I know what you mean about magazines knowing shit all about what people want to wear..it all seems to be 'wear this to accentuate this and buy this to make your cleavage nicer'...
I reckon your dress sense is pretty spot on, stick with what you think looks nice!
Love this outfit! It is realyl strange to see it rain in Hollywood haha:p

TRENCH COAT. TRENCH COAT. TRENCH COAT. And I love the scarf. :)

the size of your trench is beautiful. ;D
Fab earrings, check. Metallic leggings, check. LAMB SHOES?!?! OMG, maybe my extreme Gwen love is providing my blind and complete bias love, but I'm so jealous you own anything LAMB! They are too cute :)
To put it indelicately, screw them. I think you're gorgeous, and the reason I keep coming back to this blog is because I LOVE you're uniqueness and how much fun you seem to have with you're wardrobe. Don't let them haters get you down, girl!
anyways, love this jacket. so classic and sweet. Those earrings are pretty amazing too.

please do not consider what haters says. you are so feminine, woman , gorgeous and that's why i keep coming back here! tu es toujours superbe!!!!!!!!!!!
I AGREE KARLA! right on!!! you look awesome!!
as they say - haters gonna hate.
http://belx.wordpress.com
How rude of people to "suggest" you dress a different way. Who do they think they are? I thought style was all about what you liked, not trying to please others!
Say it loud and say proud. Love it and wish more girls had the guts wear what they want.
100% agree with you! You are inspiration for me :) Greetings from Poland :)
amen to your last paragraph!
people are crazy, I get comments from 'you look anorectic' to 'your legs look fat'.
it's ridiculous that after all I write and the pictures I share this is really all some people have to say.
I love the nudes and white tights on you, really makes me crave warmer climate here too.
<3

Screw them, Karla.You're absolutely lovely and every piece of your wardrobe is full of charme and unique.
Waiting new outfits soon, greetings from Italy.

That's what I madly love in you!! You don't care that you don't look like that skinny models! You are what you are and you love it
That is f*cking awesome!!
btw, very nice contrast with white))

This coat is wonderful. However, the leggings I completely don`t like.

This is my first comment ever made in a blog and I say this with due respect- thank you very very much for your brilliant statement about what to wear and the freedom of expressing yourself. I will always remember that when reading your blog.

I agree with you, I hate magazines which tell people how to dress. I think you should dress in whatever makes you feel comfortable.

Love you looks, always ;)

"fashion should be fun."
- I totally agree! I enjoy looking at your outfit posts, and though I wouldn't always agree to some of your combination, I always find it refreshing that you don't wear matching colors and stuff. I find your style and blog inspirational and very independent.
lovvvveeeeeee yoooooou
Hi!
I just wanna say that I really love your unique style! You have a beautiful smile and a delightful way to dress. You also have a great body and you're so beautiful as the way you are! I'm always smiling when I'm looking at your gorgeous pictures :)
cute earrings and you have a very odd shaped ear. cute really. Spock-ish?
hihihi.
even on rainy days perfectly dressed :)
i pretty much wear all black but i love!!! your style and that unlike so many other girls/bloggers you don't try to look like everybody else... there are enough skinny girls out there for the rest of us to skip the cookies. plus it's not about the trend that takes you to places, it's the confidence!
Didn't read all the other comments so maybe i'm repeating something that have already been said but.. I like the way you dress, i like that you show of your figure and have fun with it! You are so beautiful and you're right; screw it! :)

amazing outfit, you are stunning with this combo of colours! Love it!
I'm kind of surprised you get those e-mails, i mean seriously? One size bigger is most definately than one size too small.
Hey, I'm totally with you on that one.
I'm kinda curvy and when I look at those articles, the curvy figure always gets the DOWDIEST effing outfit. Am I gonna wear that? No chance. I'll wear what I want and have fun with it.
Oh, and gorgeous trench, btw.
I like your style Karla, and not only your style, also the way you wear your clothes, sometimes vintage but they always make you look fresh..And the most important u look u don't care what they tell you about that...You know what I mean.
I follow you since a lot and now I have my own blog, check it out, you'r gonna like it!

Hahaha oh dear... I suppose their intentions were good though. I can understand how the criticism can displease you...
You always look lovely Karla- kudos to you for being so brave and putting your style, tastes, and thoughts out there for hundreds to look at. We appreciate you sharing! Don't stop being the unique Karla we all know!

The trenchcoat is lovely!!
Yeah, I totally agree. :D
I love that trench! But what I love even more is that you don't dress like a MOD (model off duty). Your style is unique, and that's hard to come by these days, even in the blogosphere :)
xx
you're right ;)
the hell with them!!!! u'r style is awesome!! i'm addicted to u'r blog(all of egypt say hi) :D
I LOVE your accents of orange and pale neutrals...
In fact I added you to my 'Blogscars' post about my fave bloggers because you are so awesome. Keep being you!

yeeah i agree with you, those articles are so dumb.. and let's not mention the tv shows..! Watched Alice in the Wonderland yesterday and its so good you should definetely go see it!
kiss kiss,
www.dimogonda.blogspot.com
You have such incredible style and I can't believe that some people are giving you "helpful hints." The great thing about style is that no one has to dress alike - that's what makes it fun!
I know exactly what you mean. Good for you. Dressing should be about fun and mood and creativity, not looking just like a top model. I love your trench.
Love love your earring!
totally gorgeouus, i love everything you own!

I love the trench and earrings! You lucky girl <3
Hi Karla :) I haven't commented here ever...but after this post I felt the need :)
Your style is absolutely lovely, and I hope that after your posts, those negative commenters will stop annyoing you :D
When it comes to magazines, of course the trend to look sexy and extremely thin is too much, but those advice are not all that lame, because not all the people have good taste so it's not that bad to get some info, on what might look good and then try it in the shop.

Preach sister, preach! I think you always look gorgeous. : )
www.poolovesboo.blogspot.com
Great shots! I love that you dress in such fun and unexpected ways - I think it's why we all keep coming back :)
Karla, your style suits you perfectly, don't go changing a thing!
AMEN SISTER. TELL'EM LIKE IT IS.
love the trench and the earrings.
im gonna wait to see alice in wonderland too.. love being almost alone in a cinema.or at least i like to be in the back- so no.one can kick on your seat..
have a lovely monday darling
xxx ediot
I know the feeling, people telling you what to wear, same at my office, I sort of dress normal but even that is too much fashion for my office (they only wear jeans and sweaters, blazers are only if you have an important appointment), they always have some comment to make -.- stay the way you are, although I wouldn't wear everything you wear, I still love your style!
I couldn't agree more. Why should we put up with being told how to dress? Wear what the hell you like, you always look great anyway!

finally someone says it out loud!!
respect!!
I love trenchs
can't wait to see Alice in wonderland!
Love those earrings !
love your outfits
(applaus) I couldn't agree with you more!!! Fashion is and should be FUN =)
totally get your point! you made my day with this :)
LOVE this!!we should wear what we want to wear and what makes ua happy!
Rock on!!
well written! I also say 'fashion is fun, fashion is a play'. Great post. I am happy someone said that aloud ;) Gorgeous trench, I would change the leggins though but anyway it's amazing and feminine combination.
amen to that screw those people and stupid rules.People should dress the way they want to.Love your style and please dont dress MOD and look like the everyone else.you have great style love your vintage funds and yes your shop is killing it.
i totally agree with you. i hate people telling me not to wear certain shoes or pants because they make my short legs look even shorter. i mean, whats wrong with short legs? Its not like i'd want them to look any longer! i love your way of thinking when it comes to fashion and such, because youre not emblematic of what people want to see but what you want to wear..it's amazing. - a reader from North Europe.
i heart you! and i really love your style, figure and haircut. don't you dare to listen to those who want you to change! this is you and that's perfect!
Keep doing what you do and disregard everything else. You look fantastic. Always.
Oh my goodness. I finally found a blog with a girl that isn't wearing the "occasional fashion", like everyone else in the (blogger)world seems to be. And then there are people complaining about that! Please just keep wearing what you want, because you look stunning this way. Let those people wear their own model-off-duty-crap, stay just as inspiring as you are!
I love the trench!
I can't believe anyone would have the audacity to tell YOU how to dress. Firstly, your style is amazing and secondly, neutral colours and following trends is BORING.
Fab earrings :)
Screw people trying to tell you what to wear! You look amazing and I admire your style because you DON'T look like everyone else :)
I like your earrings!
But what I really love is your trench! Lovely coat and with this outfit it's perfect! So, cool, Chic and Gorgeous!:)
xxxx
I love you in the trench here. It's so classic and Holly Golightly ;-) I dislike the "advice" in many magazines too. I think it just makes people more paranoid about what they put on in the morning, and takes away from the joy of fashion. In my POV, you can rock anything, as long as you're confident with yourself.
pixiedrivein.blogspot.com
Love your last words over there. I think you look beautiful in almost anything you wear - not only because you wear great clothes, but mainly because you have a wonderful aura and seem to be happy and content.
Love the trench, scarf and earrings by the way.
this trench-coat it's perfect for the rain
lovely
<3
I appreciated what you said; I agree. The idea that whoever said those things to you is telling you to look like "everyone" else seems pretty closed-minded. Why do you have to look like "everyone else"? Having fun, and being creative with fashion is kind of what makes it so amazing.
When it comes to fashion I want to see something different, unforgettable, and something inspiring. Not something that I see every day. And some women appreciate their curves... Why would they have to hide them, if they like them? Sorry, I'm ranting. But I can't help but feel passionate about this subject.
Anyways I like the trench and the photograph with the rain+umbrella!
why is anyone giving you advice about how you dress, this is karla's closet, not tell me what to put in karla's closet. some people have nerve, work it Karla!
Cheers,
Alina

f the naysayers! you give those of us with hips & curves hope, joy & inspiration. thank you for NOT wearing the "model off duty" look! xo
Fashion is all about wearing what makes YOU feel good. You look great and the haters who say stupid things are clearly just jealous.
Love the trench!

Beautiful earrings.

You can say whatever you want, but the fact is most of us liked your style before and now we don't. I still like your personality, though.
I absolutely LOVE the trench coat =) and I love the fact that you think everybody should dress the way they like, putting aside body-type and what not. I can hardly believe that anybody who reads your blog has the nerve to say something like that; the reason I read your blog is because I love how your outfits are so unique and unexpected.
hope you have an amazing week!
xoxo

oh and the earrings are positively GORGEOUS =)

Totally agree, it this very mentality that ruins creativity. The sad thing such members of these narrow-minded groups, lack the education and ability to see things that might SHOCK HORROR go against the grain. I really find your style unique and colourful, two things I admire in human beings. Thank god you don't listen to such idiocy :)
I agree partly. I mean, those dress for your bodytype is only gonna make you look BETTER not worse and wide hips btw, is not a bad thing. Some people need these quidelines as they have absolutely no clue. You, however, don't need it AT ALL and those things hardly are there for stylish people like you.
Lover your trench!!!
the coat is awesome, and i love the strapy Lamb heels
love the outfit Kara

I absolutely adore your earrings, I'm guessing as they're clip ons they're vintage? And there are no fashion rules, don't let anyone piss on your bonfire! :)
Forget those people, you look INSANELY amazing! There is a reason so many people (and I) follow your blog. Because you wear what you love, you think outside the box, and you give so many other people the courage to do the same thing! Keep rocking girl!
I love the trench and I love the new earrings, but I am sorry to hear they broke when you adjusted them! They are so beautiful. Karla, this is your blog so you can do whatever you want to do and you have a great following. Always be yourself! I hate when people try to tell me what I should do on my own blog too. No one really knows how much work goes into blogging and photography until they start doing it. You are beautiful and more importantly you are a nice person! xo
www.FashionSnag.com
Exactly! from what I see you don't need advice on what to wear anyway. Keep on doing you!
Simply lovely as always! I am kind of a new follower and your sense of style has given me such inspiration! I'm from a small town, so there isn't much unique style floating around. Your blog has made me want to start my own and I love doing it!
Shocked and appalled that anyone would suggest you dress differently. Your sense of style is so fabulous and obviously you... why would you ever change it??? I'm all for celebrating curves and colors!
Love this trench coat, absolutely amazing! You put together the most wonderful outfits, why anybody would want you to stop that and dress more like 'everybody else' is beyond me but I'm glad you've got the common sense to ignore them!!

I love your blog, your style and that you have your own look. I only wish I had the sartorial eye you do! (And so do many others, I see, whether they express it through love or hate messages.)
Just love the mac!
Karla, I'm sure you're going to get massive comments of encouragement. And that is great! Because often it's good to know the people we're touching... the lives we're affecting for the good. But, I had to leave mine, anyway! =^)
I've loved your blog. And one of the things that is so wonderful about it (and you) is that you're encouraging other women to step out of the box. Try something new. Be different. Wear what you love because you love it.
We walk around in this culture that tells us to dress this way, buy that, act like this, show off these things, hide that... and I see women on a daily basis scared to try something new, petrified to be adventurous. I'm PASSIONATE about helping women break OUT of this cycle... PASSIONATE about walking in FREEDOM!
Your smile and spark and laughter show through in your pics. You being YOU is CONTAGIOUS... and it's going to encourage other women to be just who THEY are.
AND, another thing that is lovely about this blog? You constantly show you don't have to spend big bucks to do it... which is another lie of fashion mags. Yay for thrifting.
So, thanks... for being you... for encouraging others to be them... for wearing what you wear because you love it.
Much love to you...
~Angela @ Stilettos & Grace
HA! Like telling tall people they shouldn't wear big heels. Maybe I like towering over everyone - I can see better :-)
Good for you Karla, you're beautiful and one of my favorite bloggers !
how old are you?
i'm not man, so i ask you :D hihi
I agree, you shouldn't let other people's thoughts effect you and should just dress how you want to no matter what anyone else thinks :)
I love the trench coat and your yellow and lilac silk scarf!
Totally agree-people should wear what they want! Sure leggings cut off my legs, but I like them, and I feel comfortable in them. Fashion SHOULD be fun!
Love your blog, it's one of my daily reads!

Wardrobe Welcome
YOU. GO.
That is all. I am a pear shaped girl and I know I shouldn't wear skinny jeans, heck I would like to be thin enough to look really good in them, but by gum I'm gonna wear them!
I would rather show off my curves than dress like someone from the 50s all my life.
Really love the trench and the shoes! Great outfit!
http://timetimetravelers.blogspot.com/
Ugh! Comments like that are so silly. You look fab. Love those earrings.
I think you have phenomenal style and your look is all your own. Only following editorials' ideas is akin to only following the popular girls in high school.
Love the blog <3
Chic & classic. Loving the fact that you made those flashy tights so classy...
Laura E.
You have amazing style!
Keep on flying girl:)
XoXo
the common element of all your publications is elegance, consistency and quality photography. You have a very distinct style and is always refreshing visit. Kisses from Barcelona .....
I just did a story on trenches last week. C'est magnifique! Own your style, screw the others!
Hey Karla, I've been reading your blog for about a year now and I just wanna say that I am SO glad you do not dress like "those models off-duty" like most of the other fashion bloggers off there. If you did, chances are I would not read your blog. The main reason why I like your blog so much is that your style is always so classy and chic and plus you always seem unconcerned with the latest trends and like you said "fashion should be fun" and that shows very well through all your blog posts.
In short, what I'm trying to say is thank you Karla for being you!
Love these photos! The second one is stunning, as is the closeup of the earring. Your skin looks so dewy and beautiful.
And I completely agree. Everyone should dress in a way that makes them feel good. I love totally disregarding people's "advice" about what to wear. I wear what pleases me. And you do too, to great effect. xo
word, girl.
Right on!!!!!
Totally agree!!
although, haha, they were right in that you look best in neutrals, hahah... just sayin'
great trench! i so need to get on eof my own now.
I totally agree with you! And I think you look AMAZING. A great inspiration to me!
I can't believe people wrote to you telling you how to dress. the mind boggles.
Lovely trench!
juliet xxx
Well said Karla! You have an amazing sense of style that I'm sure very skinny women cannot pull off or would envy! Great job overall!
i seriously never post comments, but i think what you said in response to those trend-worshipping commenters is so spot on. You really do dress however you like, regardless of trends and i think it's wonderful! i love that you accentuate your body, because you have a reallyyyyy good one and it's not that stick thin yucky type. good for you for sticking with your loves of fashion and not giving into the dripping in black trends! xx
I ADORE THIS.
The silver with the trench is very imaginative.

Yeah! You are right. Everybody should have the right to dress how the like. You have a good style and always follow you (even if is the first time i write). Sometimes don't like the pieces you show, but hey! it is you at the end and always feel proud of it. Hugs from Peru!
That's the very point of fashion in my mind! Showing off your personality. It's not to show off what someone else thinks is proper attire or what would suit you best...the clothes are going on your body so you get to call the shots. I am very inspired by your style, Karla. Keep it up and don't change for anyone.
I'm a little in love with your hair. Amazing blog. I don't think I will ever stop reading it
oh, I like the coat!
love the lambs and the trench! hope u get the earring repaired, would hate for them to go to waste! so pretty

Karla its about time you wrote back those those rude people hahahaha, i personally see it that way too, i wear what makes me happy, and im not always the trendiest and i love vintage clothes (its not considered in anymore per the so called "fashion world" but i wear what i love and what makes me feel good and what i know looks good on me. I love your blog i read it every time you post :) i love your style and you are beautiful girly dont let anyone tell you different, seems whos ever bugging you has been for a while now i started noticing on your older posts, you may want to monitor your comments that way they do not have a way in to comment on your amazing blog, these people are jealous. Have fun girl doing and wearing what you love.
oh p.s i awarded you with the Sunshine Award, you can pick it up on my blog :)

you're one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen, your confidence and quirkiness just give you a glow that beats those stick thin models any day! it's one of the reasons why you're the only self-posting blog i'm following. great style, great mindset, inspiring attitude. good job gorgeous, stay cute :)
I completely agree and had actually tweeted something similar a few weeks ago. Fashion should be more about freedom. People should feel perfectly comfortable wearing whatever makes them feel good regardless of what the mags and stylists say is "figure flattering".
By the way, you look lovely in everything! Keep doing YOU!
http://chitownfashionista.com
I am always so surprised to hear when you or Rumi or any blogger reports that others have been reccomending what you should wear or how you should cut your hair.. smile more/less, etc.... How can anyone make a comment as such. Aren't we here at your blog to see what YOU have chosen to wear or do? Aren't we inspired by YOU? I think so.. I don't think that any of the bloggers I follow should change a thing, regardless if I like it or not, or if I would wear it or not.
This is sooo disheartening to me.. I can't believe it.. Do others not realize that there is actually an individual behind these spaces? And that those individuals, those thinking/breathing humans woke up this morning and made an executive decision for themselves and decided to wear that frock, or those leggings, red lipstick or tie the hair up or wear it down.. How can anyone tell someone else how to dress when they seek out the dresser in the first place.. Why comment? Uhhg.. okay I am done! :)
P.s. Karla, you always look amazing and I am soo inspired by you in the fact that you have a very distinct style to YOU and it accentuates YOU and you alone.. As much as I would like to try and copy your style sometimes, I can't.. It is so individual to you and I respect that and follow you because it is nice to see every DIFFERENT person's UNIQUE way of presenting themselves..
Never change!
Karla, I totally agree that fashion should be fun. Wear what you want express yourself thats why i'm me and you are you right? Don't like it tough luck !!! Added you to my blog list. Your syles are a majormusthaves:)
you go girl! screw the people who say stuff like that. you're perfect the way you are and I think the way you dress is amazing. you've got such a good eye for style and vintage. people who say stuff like that don't dare to dress the way they want, because their scared of the negative comments they would receive. but in the end you get more respect if you're wearing the things you want then if you stick in line. and you're amazing!
j'adore !
luv luv love the earrings!
love the trench.
thanks for being true to yourself! and also to what fashion is about! its really refreshing to see.
People don;t realize that fashion, clothing is an extension of your personality, and sense we all have different personalities, it is insane to think that we should all dress the same.
Stay true to yourself and what fashion represents. love your blog!!
Please always do you Karla. Happiness is living this life(gift) fully.
you're insanely beautiful. that's not something that needs to change.
beautiful sandals & earrings. awesome job. xo
HALCOHOLIC.com
I love the way really have fun with clothes, and especially how you defy trends! Oh, and you look amazing when you smile
God I love that color of your scarf, it is soo pretty.
Also, I would just ignore those comments, you've been pretty successful dressing yourself & nobody wants to see your unique style turn into a carbon copy of everyone else.
http://thedollhouse0101.blogspot.com/
I agree with you. I think that everyone should dress how he wants, despite of what these magazines say. In this way, we'll all be happier in our lives ! (Haha sorry if my English is bad, I don't speak it fluently but I love this language so.. I try !;))
Finally, I love your blog and your outfits, they are just wonderful (even if it's not always my style). We can feel that you wear totally what you want & what you really like, without thinking of what other people could say !
Don't know if anyone ever told you (probably all), You have THE MOST AMAZING and sincere smile I have ever seen in my life. It's amazing, so eye catching.
You look fantastic and I think it's great that you don't care about what other people say!
I love your style! Screw what they have to say :) I love it, in part, because it's exactly that--YOUR style. Not some borrowed fashion fad from a magazine or what other people are doing.
<3!
Spoken like a true fashionista. Karla, I think you're awesome for having such a unique style. Don't listen to anyone who is trying to change that.
Love from The Netherlands ;)

I think fashion can be full of it sometimes...
we should wear want we please and not conform to what others want from us because then we loose the very essence of who we are. When it comes to fashion why be a sheep, when we should be trend setters. People have such great qualities that can shine through weird things. Weird is also beautiful and it's not unheard of that is for sure. I like that you don't focuse on mainstream it is one the reason I find your style spectacular. Fashion takes different forms and being crazy is one of them. I like that you speak your mind on your blog it is what it's for.
I love that trench coat.. It reminds me of a classic Burberry style trench. And although this is a neutral colour you really suit, you shouldn't have to follow anyone elses rules!
People come to different blogs for different reasons- so why should they be the ones suggesting you change? I hope you don't take the comments to heart.
Oh, and loving the shots with the umbrella!

great trench, now I want one!
you look wonderful! I've noticed myself that you're style has changed since you started the blog... one of the reason because I adore to come here, is beacause you always wear what you like, without taking care of people who tell you that you look older or fatter with that dress or that skirt. as you said, fashion is freedom, is fun... it's game! and the greater fact is there aren't fixed rules!
I
after all... I always find you delicious and so beautiful Karla.
Keep rockin your closet the way you're doing now! ;D

I agree with you..fashion is about having fun - not size zero or designer outfits - its like going on an adventure - u never where you will end:-)
Can I get an 'AMEN!' up in this bitch?
Thank so much for pointing that out...I get that a lot in real life, but I end up following my own drum (only took me, like 23 years to do it, lol)...
In the meantime, keep doing what you're doing...I may not like everything you post up, but the vast majority is awesome and invigorating, not to mention, inspiring! And screw those idiots who try to take over YOUR blog...if they want someone to wear what they suggest, then they can start THEIR OWN blog, damnit...
oh goodness... my 2 cents is pretty much spot on with most here. I am inspired by your looks and style. I love to look at what you put together. Today the trench and shiny leggings are SO CUTE! All of my life I have heard comments about how 'weird' I dress. Lucky for me, I don't dress for them! lol Naysayers... keep clicking.. :)
wwowo very very nice!
I applaud you! Keep doing you, its wonderful, gorgeous and definitely unique, and I love it!

I completely agree with you.
Fashion is about being innovative, inspired and overall, having fun!
You're amazing!
Hey Karla,
Your style is great and i totally agree. Anyone who tries to dress a certain way just cause they are told to, is truely missing out! Fashion is about self expression and I say dress how ever you like.
Keep it up!

finally its been said!! fashion is all up to interpretation. there shouldnt be strict rules to follow. you look gorgeous in everything you wear. and you wear it with confidence. your style is amazing and unique. i love it! and your hair! oh and those earrings and leggings are awesome!
You are an inspiration to me, and I feel like everyone has the right to their own style.
I love the tights and your smile, makes the outfit pop even more. And I SO get your point! Nicely put :) (I'm still dealing with that being tall so dresses and shorts seem shorter on me, curvy so things can hug my form tightly or make me appear fat, and dressing how colorfully I want yet being pratical, since I work with kids and go to a conservative church. Learning to find a balance and the confidence. Being able to feel comfortable in my fashion sense even if I get uncomfortable looks and how to play with the term, "appropriate".)
Can I just say thank you right now for what you said a the very end of your post! Oh my goodness. Seriously, isn't what they say defeating the purpose of having your own personal style? I love what you wear and how you wear it, keep it up!
Well, I think you look fantastic. Love the earrings.
I totally get your point. And, you're not dressing for other people, you're dressing for you!
I love your blog...you have great style and you seem to be YOU.
I totally agree Karla! Who says everyone wants to look thinner? Or that we all want the allusion of longer legs? I like my average lenghted, thick legs and love accentuating my curvy hips! Fashion should be fun and non-conforming. Not everyone wants to look an emaciated mannequin! (no offense to the models out there)There are different looks that we all want to convey and we shouldn't impede on other people's desires/visions.
