Festival Fashion

Since festival season is right around the corner I've decided to partner up with Sakroots and showcase their products as they will make an amazing addition to any festival look. In this post I am wearing a backpack and a crossbody from Sakroots
If you are a person who doesn't like to carry lots of stuff around, then a crossbody is definitely for you. It has compartments for credit cards, phone and other small necessities. A perfect bag that keeps your hands free so that you can show some moves ;)
And if you a person who like to be prepared for everything, then the backpack option is just as much fun - it's spacious, light and has a great variety of prints. Speaking of prints, Sakroots items feature colorful and original artwork and they support various nature and music charities. 
By the way, you can get a FREE Snakeroots tumbler in the print of your choice if you spend $50 or more and use promo code SRFestivalFinds at checkout!
As for my other must have accessories, colorful glasses and fringe boots are a MUST :) What are your festival fashion accessory go-tos?

Tank Dress

When the heat strikes like today, the only thing one can wear is a light silk tank dress, like this one from Alice and Olivia. It's super easy to style and very sexy to wear ;)
By the way, check out my latest article that I wrote on Loehmann's blog about occasional dressing!

Futuristic Glam with Lamborghini Huracan

It's time for a new installment in my "Car+Fashion" series and this time it's with Lamborghini Newport Beach's cool new Lamborghini Huracan - a perfect sports car that seems straight out of the future. It's precise technology and top level craftsmanship meet an audacious design with sharp edges and precise surfaces. Even though I didn't drive the car myself, I still had a lot of fun just sitting inside, listening to the engine (the sound of which changes with different modes of driving - street/sport/race) and watching sunny Cali views while speeding up. The Huracan's top speed is over 202 mph (325km/h), but obviously I didn't drive even close to that. You can check out the little video of my experience here :)
Various aspects of Huracan are technologically advanced, but my most favorite is full LED headlamps (and all other light functions!), which ensures higher contrast in night conditions and leaves you 100% convinced that you are driving your transformer friend (or maybe he drives you ;)). It's exciting, that with the Huracan, Lamborghini is taking a huge step into the future, and enhancing the brands illustrious history with the next automotive legend. 
As for the look, since I was featuring a futuristic car, I had to go with a futuristic glam look mixing different textures of all black.

It's Tea Time

It's really hard to impress me when it comes to dresses but every once in a while I stumble upon a true beauty. This one from Maje is one of those - simple yet so chic and ladylike. Happy Weekend, my friends!
By the way, I am now on Snapchat - posting exclusive content there. Check it out, my username is byDianaMarks ;)
