When it comes to fashion I’m constantly looking for new inspiration. I feel like my looks range from uber feminine to edgy based on my mood. One day I’ll pull a drapey dress and block heels and the next will be ripped denim with sneakers. Isn’t that what fashion is all about – expressing yourself and trying new things?There are three trends that I tend to lean towards: classic femininity, boho chic, and edgy basics. I usually stick to one of these categories for a full outfit but also love mixing for a new twist on things. I also try to dress for my shape and have a good eye for what looks best on me. As I get older, it’s definitely quality over quantity. However I also love to have fun with trends!
Today I wanted to share three of my go-to style icons that I feel fit my closet the best (or at least who fill my Pinterest boards). These ladies know how to werk an outfit and are always so pulled together. Now, if only I can raid their closets…
Classic Femininity
Key Influencer: Julia Engel of “Gal Meets Glam“

Who’s that girl? San-Francisco based fashion and beauty blogger
Where can I find her? Drinking rose in romantic places such as Italy, Hawaii, and Paris
How does she describe her style? “My style is very feminine and classic, not so much dependent on trends. I really try and dress for my body and just go with what I’m initially drawn to and what catches my eye. My style has evolved over the years and the older I get, the easier it is for me to shop and know exactly what I want.”

How does she describe her style? “It’s funny because it’s definitely different when I’m in New York or when I’m home in California.
