Pushing the Edge with McLaren

It's time to get back to cars again with McLaren Newport Beach. This time it's my new favorite car - McLaren 650S Spider. It's a true supercar with a unique balance of luxury and excitement. And most importantly, it's is convertible - the result of true genius of McLaren innovators. 
Every time I see that car, whether it's on screen or live, I get the same tingle of excitement. Every panel, every surface, every detail is simply flawless - it feels like a dream. But when I started to dig deeper, I actually found out that it's more real that it can possibly be. The ideal and efficient design is a result of innovative thinkers behind McLaren whose biggest inspiration is ever-evolving Mother Nature and the animal kingdom. What can be more real?
The 650S is the world's most versatile supercar, and the Spider takes another step further with a retractable hard top which can open you up to a whole new dimension of driving enjoyment. I am not surprised that this piece of art is designed by McLaren, which adopts the philosophy "If it doesn't push the edge, it's not good enough".
As for the look, I definitely felt like a true badass hence a leather skirt and a studded bag. But there's no true woman-power without a touch of glam and sophistication, which was created by mixing a feminine top with heavy leather details.

Festival Lookbook


This post is promoted by Target
Whether you are headed to Coachella or just jamming to tunes on a walk to class, boho looks are all the rave. Festival fashion doesn't only happen at festivals, it's everywhere as long as it's festival season ;) I have partnered with Target to create three looks inspired by three different music genres. They are incredibly affordable at Target and I think all of them would be great for any festival you are planning to attend. 
So the first look showcases essential elements of any festival: a denim vest, a fedora hat and a pair of comfortable booties. This hippie-chic look is a great idea for a rock night.
