Ermelinda Manos x So Yeah pt. 1

For the next couple weeks, I'm doing a very special project with a good friend of mine. If you guys didn't already know, I went to Fashion Design school and am planning on creating my own clothing brand. I collaborated with my fellow designer Ermelinda Manos to create a capsule collection featuring one of my favorite trend: bike shorts! Click HERE to shop. We picked some rad colors and fabrics and even made a couple matching tops! This one here is one of my favorites, it's a beautiful black velvet set inspired by the 90s. And the best part? We both love animals, so a portion of the proceeds will go to the Nevada Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NSPCA). I styled this set with this amazing oversized Zara blazer, but it's from last year so here's a similar one. I paired my favorite minimal heels, also from Zara and this cute initial pendant from Boho Moon. Stay tuned for more pieces from our collaboration collection!

Suit Up

Now that the weather is really starting to cool down, I thought I'd break out one of my favorite things: suits. They are so chic and effortless, and there's so many ways to style them. For this one, I went with a casual L.A. inspired ensemble. Now this suit is from H&M a couple seasons ago, so it's no longer available. Here's a really nice alternative blazer and pants combo. With my suit, I paired my very favorite white t-shirt called the Little Brother Tee. It's from Urban Outfitters. The fabric feels like that perfectly soft, washed vintage tee and I love the slightly cropped length. What really brought the L.A. vibe was these amazing sneakers, my 80's inspired Reebok Aztreks. Here's a secret: these sunnies are actually prescription! But I found a really cute pair that looks just like them for those who aren't visually impaired. My final touch was this cute bamboo initial necklace again because I love it so much.

An Ode to Glossier

As I'm sure you've noticed, I'm obsessed with the brand Glossier. And recently, they opened up a storefront in LA. I finally got to go see Glossier IRL and it was amazing! I love the pink everything, and the pampas grass everywhere, and Glossier Canyon! I also like my outfit. It was a simple, comfy look for running around LA. I wore my trusty biker shorts because they look good with seriously everything. This sweater is from H&M and it's one of my favs. It's from last year, but here's a similar one. I also wore my Sketchers Energy sneakers because what's more perfect for walking around than dad sneakers? I topped this look off with this chic initial necklace from a little online boutique called Kelzditit. And to carry my new Glossier purchase? A furry leopard print tote that's totally adorable. Scroll through to see what all I tried on and what I bought!

My face, pre-Glossier.

All pink everything!

I tried on their Cloud Paint blush in Dusk and Puff.

This is their new and improved Generation G sheer matte lipstick in the color Zip, which is a poppy red. I'm obsessed!

Here's the final look! I also tried their Lid Star eyeshadow in Slip, a sheer pinky peach, and I was already wearing their Lash Slick mascara. I topped off the lipstick with their signature lip gloss. What do you think?

Glossier Canyon! It's soooo pretty.
