Glasses that Give you the World

A few days ago, while staring at my Macbook Air screen with what felt like fire in my eyes, it hit me that I haven’t been able to see clearly for nearly 20 years. As I grew up, I felt ridiculously unattractive because I lived and breathed in 1/2-inch-thick prescription glasses that went incredibly well with my Reebok high-top shoes (yes, I was quite the sexy beast). However, I enjoyed wearing them because they helped me see the world.

Upon a little YouTube diving, I discovered a video for Glasses.com that I could truly relate to. It all begins with a necessary accessory that serves its basic purpose and transforms into the perfect companion for exploring what life has to offer.

Despite my love/hate relationship with prescription glasses, they became a part of me that I grew very fond of. My glasses were my BFF’s, pretty much. They went with me everywhere and experienced all of my most embarrassing moments, and then some. A perfect pair of glasses can add quite a sophisticated touch that allows one to see beyond what’s in front of him/her. Therefore, prescription glasses make the perfect accessory because they define more than a simple piece of jewelry or added “flair.” Glasses.com has an amazing selection of chic prescription glasses such as Ray Ban, Kate Spade, Burberry, Ralph Lauren and Spy, to name a few. With 21 collections ranging from fashion to geek chic, they have an incredible array of glasses for men and women.

Perfect Dorm Style: Clean & Chic Room Decor

As my birthday approaches, I can’t help but reminisce college days and how I never really experienced a complete “dorm room” moment. After entering college, I had my own place but secretly enjoyed the thought of dorm room décor to reflect my personal style. Adding a little custom flair to any dorm room not only transforms the entire room, but gives it character and a feeling of being at home. Therefore, I’ve decided to go back in time (think Back to the Future with Lynsee) and live my college days all over again along with PBDorm to showcase some of my personal dorm room essentials.

Personally, my decor style is chic, clean and fresh. I like to keep everything fairly neutral and feminine with unique items that have multi-purposes because it limits the amount of space needed while adding a personal touch.

Dorm room organization is the number one priority when decorating such a room, as there is little space to work with. However, it can be done with the right pieces. For example, bundling up beauty products along with a wall mirror is a great way to keep everything consolidated in a small area of the room. Additionally, placing makeup or other products in wall storage containers helps keep everything clean and organized too.

As for a workspace, I think it’s pretty essential to have an area where you can do homework or projects because it helps maintain balance between work and a living area. PBDorm has some space-saving desks that also contain wall storage compartments which is perfect for all work essentials. I’m also loving these fresh chevron printed desk organizers for pencils, paper clips, folders, notebooks, etc.

The “Freshman 15” does not need to become a fad if you have the proper food storage pieces in the dorm room. A few of my must-haves in this department include: 1) a miniature fridge (how cute is the pink one?), 2) sealable food containers (portion control), and 3) a healthy snack bar. I would include little packets of raw nuts, dried cranberries, Quest bars, and popcorn in mine.

Of course, a little wall art is necessary in any dorm room. I love the photo frame decals for adding photos with friends while the bulletin board is perfect for little reminders to stay on schedule.

Show your PBDorm Room Style by creating a Pinterest board or photo collage highlighting which items you would use from PBDorm’s website and tag me on Instagram at @StyleByLynsee ! I’ll be posting mine on my Pinterest page and would love to see your style as well 🙂

As I’m sitting at my dining room table staring at my pink covered Lorna Jane planner, I can’t help but realize how quickly time has gone by over the past two (almost three) years. Becoming a mother and being able to watch my son Taejin, grow over the years have been the most cherished moments of my life and I’m grateful to be his mommy. More importantly, I’m endlessly grateful for having him in my life and making each day better than the rest.

Therefore, today’s blog post is dedicated to all of the other mothers out there (whether they are single mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, guardians, etc.). It’s undoubtedly the hardest job given, but also quite rewarding. So, it’s only right that I feature Taejin in today’s blog post 🙂

My son lives and breathes for the basic essentials in life: gummy bears, chocolate milk, shoes (like mommy) and hats. He’s rocking a leopard printed ALDO hat paired with various textures and colors.

The inspiration behind my look is derived straight off the runway, reminiscent of the Spring 2014 oxford trend shown by Alexander Wang. I love the crisp look and feel paired with minimalistic white heels and denim textured pieces.

What I’m rocking:

Top by Target | Shorts by ATIKshop | Shoes by ZARA | Sunglasses by GUCCI

What Taejin’s rocking:

Top by Target | Pants by H&M Kids | Shoes by H&M Kids | Hat by ALDO

Rave Prints and Sporty Neutrals.

Over the weekend, I pretty much live in these chic Express jogger pants because they can be dressed up or down. The sporty trend has been incorporated into many of my weekend outfits, as it allows me to be comfortable yet presentable at the same time. The term “comfortable” does not have to translate to “today I’m going to look reckless.” Therefore, pairing a printed top (like this black and white number from LE TOTE) with some joggers can really heighten a look.

Of course, adding some strappy heels is a must. It could always be dressed down with a pair of sneakers but then I look like an oompa loompa so I tend to grab heels for a chic look. Don’t get me wrong – I wear flats and sneakers too.

What I’m rocking:

Top by LE TOTE | Jogger pants by EXPRESS | Shoes by ZARA |

Bracelet by Alex and Ani | Necklace by LE TOTE

Fresh Crop.

One of my favorite trends for this season is the “fresh crop,” which is slightly rejuvenated from the previous “ab revealing” crop that was all the rage during the summer. This particular look was worn on a breezy day at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden, which boasts a 2.6-acre greenspace in the heart of Miami Beach. I love walking through the Botanical Garden, as it is one of the most peaceful and gorgeous spots in South Beach.

Although wearing completely black attire doesn’t quite scream “Spring,” I love the classic look paired with these nude caged booties by Nine West.

What I’m rocking:

Crop top by H&M | Short by Macy’s | Shoes by Nine West | Bag by 3.1 Phillip Lim | Blazer by Boutique

Healthy Habits: Food Swaps – Eat This, Not That with StyleMeFIT

In collaboration with StyleMeFIT, I have been filming my new video series titled “New Year, New You” which is all about bettering yourself for the new year. Those who know me know that I am a true believer in sustaining a healthy and balanced life through fitness and ultimately taking care of yourself. Whether it is through workout out, eating well, staying chic, or inner balance, there is something about keeping a balance in life that keeps me happy and satisfied.

Therefore, the second episode of my series is “Food Swaps: Eat This, Not That” where I chat about my favorite healthy food options for some of those not-so-healthy food or condiment choices that many of us make. Admit it, you’re guilty of it too.

Falling for Plaid

First of all, I have to apologize for the delay in blog posting but I was recently in New York for a brief trip and had some technical difficulties. However, I flew back to Miami (and yes, I am blogging at 1:25 AM) and the first thing that I needed to do was post an outfit of the day for you all. Despite the atrocious reputation the plaid pattern has had in the past, it’s been quite the trend for the fall/winter season and I’ve slowly developed a love for the print.

It’s one of those patterns that can be diversified by rocking it casually with a blazer and jeans or even dressed down with leather sweatpants. Surprisingly enough, there are a number of ways to style a plaid shirt other than throwing it on in the hopes of looking like a lumberjack.

To give this a classic look, I paired it with an oversized camel tote and polished it off by adding a thick cuff at the bottom of my jeans. For an effortless feel, I like to roll up my sleeves of blazers or blouses.
