CHACHA'S CLOSET ; Color Craze



 Yes, I dared to wear pink and red  together. Ever since I saw Sarah Jessica Parker, Heidi Klum and my favorite style blogger Blair Eadie wearing this amazing color block, I wanted to do it too. I've never imagine myself wearing these brights in one outfit, maybe accessorizing or a handbag like Kate Spade's Beau bag but never like this awesome outfit. I knew I had the pieces in these particular colors but I wasn't so daring a while ago. The sweater I had for a couple of years, the pants are the first red pair I've ever owned and are now in my "favorite pile". The trick in this color blocking is based on the right tone of pink and red. A bright, maybe neon pink works perfectly paired up with orangy-red tone. Adding the leopard and golden booties and bag  raised the look to another level but the colorful earrings top it off.

CHACHA'S CLOSET : Wild & Cozy

It's sweater weather time all right. Snugly, big cable knit sweaters are everywhere, paired up with skinny jeans, pencil skirts, leather and mini skirts like I'm wearing today. That it is a little bit chilly out there, no doubt but not as cold that you will have to wear tights with your mini. The chill factor on the upper body is different from the bottom, at least for me it is. Adding different textures to your whole outfit will make it more interesting, fashion forward and chic. A wool sweater, leather mini + the high heel wedges with a leopard print made me feel like Good-Girl-Gone-Bad kind of way, all snugly and covered on top and wild and sexy on the bottom! With some many options out there, find something with details like zippers, buttons or studs. This one caught my attention because of the side zippers as well as the high neck. So go ahead, get Wild & Cozy,  check Zara's knitwear dept. for some extra style tips on how to wear your sweaters.
