Celebrity Style: Lana Del Rey


Those who know me at all, know that I have a fascination with celebrities and their style. So i've decided that I want to do a couple of blog posts monthly on celebrity fashion. First writing about a celebrity I am very familiar with: Lana Del Rey. I've become more interested in her lately due to my brothers idolization. And, after seeing her perform at Coachella both weekends in her amazing vintage dresses, I knew that I had to write about her. Lana is a classic beauty. She has a way of blending retro and vintage pieces in the most beautiful way. She has undeniable sex appeal, but she handles herself in such a lady-like way. Whenever Lana is on stage, she goes for pieces that have a beautiful sense of retro glamour, which is a very different look than her every day casual style. Either way, she manages to look amazing both ways. Some of her trademarks include her stunning hair and big lips. In the beginning of her fame, she wore flower crowns on stage. You can still see girls trying to recreate Lana inspired looks at music festivals all over the world. Overall, Lana is inspiration for anyone who wants to try vintage or retro looks.

Coachella 2014

With the First Weekend of Coachella starting tomorrow, I thought it would be a fun idea to share a playlist of some of my favorite artists playing!



And here are some of my festival essentials and fun looks for the 3-day event. Coachella is all about easy, breezy, boho chic. It's so much fun but the heat can get a little unbearable, so covered clothes are not recommended. Take a risk and have fun when dressing for festivals!


If you are going to the festival too, either this weekend or next, make sure to have fun, be safe and stay hydrated! If you aren't going, Coachella will be live streaming from their website all weekend! http://www.coachella.com

I'll be posting my looks from each day really soon!
For photos during the festival, make sure to follow me on Instagram: avgumm

Skingraft Fall 2014 Fashion Show


Skingraft was the last show that we attended at NYFW Fall/ Winter 2014. And it was by far my favorite. Anyone that knows me, knows that black is one of my favorite colors. Its edgy but keeps you chic at the same time. That is the exact definition of the Skingraft collection. Designer Jonny Cota knows how to use leather perfectly. He has an amazing style for himself as well as his collection. The models for the show were also amazing, everyone being so incredibly unique. Overall, Skingraft just has a cool factor that was undeniable.
