Marcella Precise - PAN-AM (We So Fly) feat. Dragonette by MarcellaPrecise

 

Check out  what Recording Artist/Producer/Songwriter, MARCELLA PRECISE, had to say about her "go to" pieces, when she's "on the go" this spring/summer season.

Spring is the time of the year when flowers bloom and the earth renews herself..lucky for us, the same goes for music. Spring is the Festival season. With all the great hoopla over events like Coachella, Australia's Superfest & SXSW, I thought I'd give some of my picks for dressing in the festival season. It's perfect time for taking in new music and/or your favorite band, often times in a beautiful outdoor venue. For me that is a call for comfort! Be it a day in the hot sun or a mild day with a touch of drizzle, comfort is key when your out in the field enjoying a high energy performance or back stage taking in a VIP buffet. One of the springs cutest trends is the color explosion that is TANGERINE. Here are some of my picks for bringing some citrus cool to a fun festival look. Thank you fashionistazlife.com


Currently Lusting: Bold Colors

May07

{Cinco de Mayo style: colorful cropped top and printed platforms}

Recently, I went into my closet to see what I needed for summer.  I was amazed that I had so many black and grey pieces (I think it's a NY thing).  I took the plunge and vowed to only purchase pieces that consisted of bright, bold colors.

 

Embellished coral semi-sheer top.  I'd rock this with cut-off shorts and flat sandals.

 

Chevron print dress.  I love the pops of coral in it.


Get the Look: Kanye West

Apr27

 

One to never half step on his outfit choices, Kanye West was spotted rocking the neon yellow trend. Not to mention his usual leather pants. He kept his entire look simple with a black t-shirt and navy blue jacket and allowed his kicks to stand out. Here's how you can get the same look:

How To: Wear A Striped Dress Day & Night

Apr26

I'll admit I've always looked at a striped dress as a piece reserved for daytime only.  With an effort to get more bang for your buck, I came up with a way to wear the same dress more nighttime appropriate.  By throwing on a tuxedo jacket, strappy heels, sequin clutch and cocktail ring, it still shows off your sexiness without trying too hard.

Daytime

Straw Fedora with Ribbon Bow - $9.50

Tory Burch Wood and Resin Bangles - $145

Aldo Pecor Sandal- $65 $39.98

 

Night-time

Rag & Bone Sliver Tuxedo Jacket - $495

Glitter & Sequined Foldover Clutch - $99 $79

Miu Miu Criss Cross Suede Strappy Sandal - $476 $428.40

Wendy Mink Cocktail Ring - $198


Go Green

Apr20

While Tangerine Tango is the color of the year, adding a rainforest print to your wardrobe will make a statement.   Go bold by rocking these two pieces together.

Mixed Prints

Apr17

My daytime look consists of flats and comfortable pants. Instead of having such a casual outfit look so blah, I up the flyness factor by making sure they consist of cool prints. In this layout, the printed pants and flats work because of the pink and black in both pieces. Don't be afraid to mix and match prints and create a look uniquely yours. Also, it's a great lounging around weekend look. Top it off with an eye-catching canvas tote and an updated friendship bracelet.


Neon Biker Jackets

Apr13

 

Everywhere you look, it's all about neon.  I haven't rocked neon since the 90s, so I had to jump on the trend.  I started small by purchasing this satchel.  I've developed enough courage to wear a neon blouse.  I'm still on the fence for rocking a neon biker jacket. I  usually don't invest a lot of money on trendy pieces, but it looks pretty fly.

Would you wear it?


Get the Look: Solange Knowles

Apr09

Solange took her color block look up a notch by adding a leopard jacket.  That was a bold move, but it works.  If all the colors and prints combined are too much for you, start small with a bright-colored clutch or color block heels to a neutral palette.  What do you think of Solange's look?


Lunch with the Girls

Apr03

The perfect lunch, shopping and drinks with the girls outfit.

 

French Connection 'Jag' Multi Stripe Jersey Dress - $98

Stella McCartney Faux Python Pump - $845

House of Harlow 1960 Cushion Cocktail Ring with Turquoise - $65

Hive & Honey Reversible Textured Hoop Earring - $12

DKNY - Croco Leather Carryall Clutch - $125


Pastel & Plaid

Apr02

Gallery Trench (similar trench here), Levi's Jeans, Ann Taylor Blouse, Rock & Republic Sunnies, ASOS Satchel, Wanted Loafers

Over a week ago, the temps were near 80 degrees.  I always have a rule of never going without a jacket until May.  I was at a loss of what jacket would be appropriate and I wouldn't being a hot sweaty mess.  I was on my way to lunch and wanted to be comfortable.  These loafers are the most comfortable pair of flats I own.  Don't you hate when you buy flats that pinch your feet?
