Faith-Love-Hope is lucky she lives in Manila in the Philippines where she can flaunt the cutest short bottoms daily. Laid back shorts paired with crisp clean blazers to playful overall jumper skirts, this stylediarist knows how to make the short look both dressy and casual, but always super stylish. Mixing textures of pieces, like school-girl blazers, casual flats, and frayed edges makes for a fun look that doesn’t look over-polished or hasty, it’s just right! See my five fave leg-baring Faith-Love-Hope stylings in my slideshow and see all she has to offer at her Stylediary page!
My journey from fab to flab has come to an interesting crossroads. Just 28 days since I first submitted myself prostrate to Clay and Elizabeth Burwell at High Performance, my body - and life - has changed. And I am noticing it. Like, I was kind of jogging to the subway a few days ago, and I could feel my pecs bouncing up and down. Because there are muscles in there now. First time ever for that. But believe me that’s just the beginning. Read on for more on my total lifestyle transformation…
There is definitely something special about our Stylediarists hailing from Australia, and chicster Bambilina is no exception.

Thumbing through the Aussie Stylediary pages, I noticed that a lot of really cute outfits were quite neutral in color. Down under, the palate may be very muted, but this international style screams posh as well as super feminine. Well, I don’t know if it’s because they’re sick of bright colors from living in a perpetual summer, but throw some of those lovely beiges, greys, blacks, creams, taupes, and whites stateside! Check out seven Australian Stylediarists and their toned down pieces that would be sure to boost any wardrobe, in my slideshow!
Dressing by genre is the name of Stylediarist Lili-c’s game. Whether it’s ballerina or biker chic, nautical, mod, or even movie-themed, she seems to have an appropriate theme for each outfit she creates. It’s safe to say that this fashionista loves her accessories and isn’t afraid to to use them! Although she has some amazing individual wardrobe pieces, it’s the way she combines them with other unique items that makes her outfits so very different. And I love that just by looking at each outfit, it seems as if you can tell what kind of adventure she’s going on! So check out my SLIDESHOW for a preview of lili_c’s themed looks or visit her Stylediary and see if you can tell what she’s up to today!
Just a few glances at nolitagurl’s Stylediary and you realize that this Japanese fashionista’s unafraid to dabble with extremes. Although her wardrobe appears to be filled with mostly muted colors and classic cuts, she makes her own fashion rules by pairing traditional pieces, like a khaki trench and H&M men’s shirts, with edgier items like micro-length tweed shorts and a particularly bold pair of vintage boots. The result is dramatic, yet subdued. She makes an impressive style statement without resorting to loud prints and bright colors. Even a vintage Karen Zambos floral skirt isn’t safe from nolitagurl’s creative sense of style. She transformed the ultra feminine skirt into a flirty dress and paired it with leggings, a Marni cardigan and mules. Nolitagurl’s Stylediary is packed with hundreds of her individual looks, be sure to check it out! Who knows, her fearless attitude towards fashion may inspire you to look at your wardrobe with renewed creativity!
Are shorts up for debate? We think they may be, but even still, we think this summer wear can be quite cute, if you buy the right cut for your “body type” or whatever it is the women’s mags always tell you. This time around, we’ve picked out 10 pairs of shorts that are on the teeny side. But don’t you fear. If you don’t want to show that much gam, or you always have bruises on your thighs from walking into the corner of the bed in the middle of the night like we do, we’ll be doing other slideshows in the weeks ahead with all kinds of other cuts.

Give me deconstructed layers with feminine tailoring, in colors reminiscent of a coming-of-age Sofia Coppola film, and I am in heaven! You’ll be sitting - or standing, or reclining - pretty in just about anything from Dorothy Lee. I would expect nothing less than greatness from her after studying at Parsons and Central St. Martins and interning for Chanel and Peter Som. Dorothy Lee presents a line of contradictions, with their girly yet ladylike silhouettes, where clean lines and simple shapes meet intricate detailing. Her relaxed, whimsical creations are the epitome of effortless chic, they have a throw-it-on-and-go quality that makes them this seasons wardrobe staple. Check out my slideshow for 10 of her prettiest looks.
