I haven't been on a college campus since 2019 and it's crazy to think that in less than two weeks, I will be back. My style has evolved during quarantine and I have learned to be more appreciative of those basic pieces lying in my closet. This past year, we have seen how quick trends seem to come and go on social media and quite frankly those trends don't do great things to my wallet nor the environment. This back-to-school season, I have been shopping for neutral pieces that I can wear during any season and that can be styled in many different ways. Make sure you are following me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@stayklassay?language=en&sec_uid=MS4wLjABAAAAh-Pv3cPimU2GW8N9OtLaQx2EoMsl6IkFWjVonpAqSUL9EHXky4ahSUi2ZzGbc4O6&u_code=da5g706e34cac9&utm_campaign=client_share&app=musically&utm_medium=ios&user_id=6777058453053932549&tt_from=copy&utm_source=copy&source=h5_m" target="_blank">Tiktok</a> to see my styling videos coming later this month.

White sneakers will go with 99.9% of the outfits that you already have in your closet so they are a good investment. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9LD" target="_blank">#4 - Denim Jacket:</a> Another layering piece that needs to be in your wardrobe. Whether you want to wear it with a dress or over a workout set, the denim jacket is always in style.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9My" target="_blank">#5 - Joggers: </a> You need that elevated sweatpant in your closet because you can get away with wearing your joggers to class or dinner without looking like a bum.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9MT" target="_blank">#6 - Jeans:</a> Bestie, I don't know about you but I will still be wearing high-waisted jeans for years to come. A pair of blue jeans, a pair of distressed jeans, and a pair of boyfriend jeans are the only jeans you really need.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9M3" target="_blank">#7 - Plain Shirts:</a> Black and White tees are your best friend. If you want to introduce some color into your wardrobe, you can get some tees in other colors as well.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9OW" target="_blank">#8 - Little Black Dress: </a> A LBD is going to be that hero piece in your closet that you can always wear even if you feel like you have nothing to wear. The dress can be accessorized in so many ways and is just a classic piece.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3jJmAMg" target="_blank">#9 - Gold Jewelry: </a>Is it just me or does gold jewelry hit differently? I always use to wear silver jewelry but gold jewelry definitely makes an outfit stand out more. From gold hoops to a chain, these accessories can be worn over and over again.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9O6" target="_blank">#10 - Sandals: </a>Sometimes the toes just need to breathe. I love a sandal that can be worn all day without causing blisters and still coordinates with the outfits I have in my closet. Feel free to add a sandal with a little heel to your collection as well.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://www.express.com/clothing/women/body-contour-double-layer-cropped-square-neck-cami/pro/06418402/color/Pitch%20Black/" target="_blank">#11 - Crop Tops</a>: A little stomach never hurt anybody. For a hot day or night out, wearing a crop top and a pair of jeans is never a bad idea.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9NM" target="_blank">#12 - Shorts:</a> If you live in Florida, you know the struggle. A pair of denim and linen shorts can be styled in different ways while being equally comfortable.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3fZyjVY" target="_blank">#13 - Tote Bag:</a> I am living for my tote bag because it allows me to throw anything and everything into it. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3CIxYAH" target="_blank">#14 - Sunglasses: </a>The way that a pair of sunglasses can upgrade any outfit is insane. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9Se" target="_blank">#15 - Sweater Vests:</a> Sweater vests only go out of style if you get a crazy pattern that you can't wear with everything. I suggest getting a plain color or something that just has a little detail to it.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9Sn" target="_blank">#16 - Skirts:</a> Whether you're into a mini or midi skirt, it is always a good idea to have that skirt that you can dress up or down. A denim skirt is always a good idea too.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://amzn.to/37B67En" target="_blank">#17 - Sweatshirts:</a> You can bury me in a sweatshirt and I won't even be mad. They are so comfortable, a great layering piece, and you can embrace your inner Kim Kardashian with just one piece.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3fVcyq3" target="_blank">#18 - Matching Workout Sets:</a> Babe, you don't even have to know what the inside of a gym looks like because it's called rocking athleisure. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9SF" target="_blank">#19 - Classic Shoulder Bag: </a>Sometimes you can't take a whole tote bag to the club and that's okay. Get yourself a little shoulder bag, put some lipgloss on, and remember that you're a baddie.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9Up" target="_blank">#20 - Graphic Tees:</a> When purchased the right way, graphic tees can be styled in so many ways and will never go out of style.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bw9U5" target="_blank">#21 - Boots:</a> The cowboy boots are cute but I am a sucker for a good Chelsea or thigh-high boot.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bxaAL" target="_blank">#22 - Blazers:</a> A blazer is that power piece that every women needs in her closet.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The key to building a capsule wardrobe is only adding pieces that you can see yourself wearing for many occasions. If you're buying something just because it's trendy or would look good for an Instagram picture then maybe you don't need it. I know that many of the stores I have linked in this post are <i>fast fashion</i> but these places actually have good quality pieces for the price. Sometimes it's hard to afford quality pieces especially as a college student and as a consumer, you shouldn't put the blame on yourself because you can't afford it. Thrifting pieces for your capsule wardrobe is a great alternative as well and it's easy to find button-ups and graphic tees in the men's section of your local thrift store. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ykVXJRAzXPM/YRW2hBWe_1I/AAAAAAAADrQ/FFuF2m5LLqEz8N-ghC3P87RZdthivoY8QCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/cap%2Bward%2B-%2B%2540stayklassay.JPEG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ykVXJRAzXPM/YRW2hBWe_1I/AAAAAAAADrQ/FFuF2m5LLqEz8N-ghC3P87RZdthivoY8QCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/cap%2Bward%2B-%2B%2540stayklassay.JPEG" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="text-align: center;">Follow me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> for more outfit inspiration!</div></span><p></p>Kassandra Vargashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07352222892225545400noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460063986866520186.post-17737454649321251952021-07-26T20:57:00.010-04:002021-08-12T20:09:52.606-04:00Nordstrom Anniversary Sale On A Budget<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1eXtdy2OT9M/YP9MnmVXWgI/AAAAAAAADqA/LqHhPKi97nY3MaOhxUWSDcVeYCMyU3I-gCLcBGAsYHQ/16%2BTimes%2BBlair%2BWaldorf%2BTaught%2BUs%2BHow%2BTo%2BBe%2BA%2BBOSS.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="238" data-original-width="420" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1eXtdy2OT9M/YP9MnmVXWgI/AAAAAAAADqA/LqHhPKi97nY3MaOhxUWSDcVeYCMyU3I-gCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/16%2BTimes%2BBlair%2BWaldorf%2BTaught%2BUs%2BHow%2BTo%2BBe%2BA%2BBOSS.png" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is right around the corner and the deals are amazing.

My phone didn't have the chance to eat first as you can see in the picture above but it was definitely worth the wait. The cookie lab allows you to create your own cookie and try these cookie milkshakes. Cookies start at $5 each and the cookie milkshakes were $14. It's very small inside which is why you have to wait so long in line but it's a cute vibe and something you should experience at least once. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">That is a wrap for the Philly food diaries.

I haven't spoken to you all since 2020 and a lot has been happening in the Stay Klassay community. I launched <a href="https://www.theklassayinfluencer.com/">The Klassay Influencer</a> which is an online guide for aspiring nano influencers who want to create a personal brand and work with brands. I am active on new social media platforms like TikTok and Clubhouse so make sure to follow me @stayklassay. The main account I stay active on is my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/">Instagram</a> so make sure to follow me on there as well. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">In this post, I am going to share my favorite swimsuit brands that are inclusive to the full-figure and curvy gals out there. It can be very difficult to find a swimsuit that not only fits you but also makes you feel confident. If you're a size 0 or a size 22, there is something for everyone in this guide.</span></p><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bs23L">Target</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Target is a great place to find affordable and trendy swimwear for every size. My favorite brands to shop from at Target are <span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;">Xhilaration and Kona Sol. Target usually holds sales for their swimwear throughout the season like 20% off or BOGO swim pieces so I recommend waiting on those if you are looking for a deal. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+Bnc30kuxYvaJYnCkWeNCYg">Dippin' Daisy's</a></span></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-family: verdana;">Dippin' Daisy's is a swimwear brand that I've recently discovered and I was gifted some of their pieces to try out. I love the material of their swimwear because it's very soft and breathable. The swimwear doesn't make you feel restricted with lining but still gives you the support you need if you have a larger chest. The swimsuit I am wearing at the beginning of this post is from here as well. They have an inclusive line that carries sizes 1X-3X which is a great step into more plus-size representation in the swimwear industry. </span></span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://www.thesaltwatercollective.com/">Saltwater Collective</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Saltwater Collective brings minimal but stylishness into swimwear. The coolest thing about each piece is that they are made from </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana; letter-spacing: 1px;">abandoned fishing nets and nylon waste from landfills. The size range is from XS-2X! The swimwear pieces are a little pricier but they are ethically curated and are great basics to last a while.</span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+ShODATKeLFDWSlTq-Fl-Yg">Aerie</a></span></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span><span style="font-family: verdana;">If your a fan of American Eagle then Aerie is right up your alley. Aerie has cute swimwear and they do a great job showing curvier models in their pieces. Aerie sizes go up to XXL. Aerie is really good about having sales on swimwear and a common one is $20 swim separates. </span></span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://missesbrie.com/">MissesBrie</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you want to feel like a whole baddie, this swimwear brand is for you. This woman and black-owned small business has been on my radar for the last year and I am so excited to spend my pool days in her pieces. The founder <a href="https://www.instagram.com/missesbrielle/">Brielle Anyea</a> models the swimwear herself and always looks like a queen. P.S. you can always find a sale on the site.</span></span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://www.torrid.com/active-swim/swim/?srule=Custom_NewArrival%2BManual&start=0&sz=60&utm_source=BR&utm_medium=GSE&utm_campaign=SEA&utm_content=1481022150_57568837656_407486350253&gclid=CjwKCAjw6fCCBhBNEiwAem5SO1eUnj-U5yPvQTWAVKHrkiQwZi_46QqJPbCVJ5GaUo2NKUQSXubG1xoCSmIQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds">Torrid</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For all my plus-size babes out there, Torrid always comes through with the supportive swim collection. Torrid is a bit on the pricier side but it is worth the investment especially for basic swim pieces. The bikini tops are always supportive and it's like wearing a bra but cuter.</span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+UO79mp979Jl47_4kBz2gmA">Rebdolls</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you didn't think a brand could be more size-inclusive, think again. Rebdolls carries sizes S-5X! Rebdolls is a women-led and minority-owned business. Their slogan #SexyForAll never lies because each of their pieces is unique and will break necks on your next beach trip.</span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+4BQCFd7H09Gfry9FSK03Ig">Cupshe</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Affordable swimwear for all with sizes from XS to 4X! Cupshe specializes in timeless pieces that are perfect for a family pool day to a beach trip with bae. Each swimwear piece has adjustable straps and removable pads. Every body is different so it's great that Cupshe creates swimwear that is versatile to everyone. </span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+v_UQJhqPmibaRuvrvAy5iQ">AdoreMe</a></span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="font-family: Times;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: verdana; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;">AdoreMe is a new brand that I was introduced to in the last year and I am personally obsessed with their pajamas. However, they have an inclusive swimwear line that is really cute. AdoreMe has a subscription service that offers pieces at a discounted price and you can pause and skip your subscription at any time. The size range ranges from an XS-4X!</span></div></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><b>Other Stores</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The great thing about swimwear is that so many stores carry swimwear or have their own collection. You can find great swimwear at Walmart, Amazon, Ross, Macy's, Marshalls, Burlington, Forever 21, and the list goes on. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I wanted to highlight brands that I've been loving recently and cater to many body types. The swimwear brands only going up to a size large need to get a new team because the average size of an American woman is 16-18 so let's cater to them, please. I look forward to updating this post as the summer month's come along and feel free to comment down below your favorite swimwear brands.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Shop my swimsuit here:</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+eyWbOdXF6ndYRH-sS55VLg">PACIFICA TOP</a><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262626; font-family: verdana; font-size: 16px; text-align: start;"><a href="https://rstyle.me/+f1qb82elDYI4HW9R5au1gA">ENSENADA BOTTOM</a><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For size reference, I typically wear a size 18 and I am wearing a size 2X in the photo</span></div>Kassandra Vargashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07352222892225545400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460063986866520186.post-2605044178502316712020-10-30T10:47:00.022-04:002020-10-31T11:41:02.284-04:00COVID Friendly Halloween Ideas<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6RTX5gw0jsE/X5wqhIzvrbI/AAAAAAAADOI/Pijb6M_ScJko9npfsTcdP-eXs56cROLiwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/Covid%2BFriendly%2BHalloween%2BPlans%2B%25281%2529.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6RTX5gw0jsE/X5wqhIzvrbI/AAAAAAAADOI/Pijb6M_ScJko9npfsTcdP-eXs56cROLiwCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Covid%2BFriendly%2BHalloween%2BPlans%2B%25281%2529.png" /></a></div><br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Well....stay home!

At home, you can participate in an online Halloween zoom event, a scavenger hunt, pumpkin carving, or <a href="https://www.stayklassay.com/2018/10/trick-or-treat-halloween-baking-for.htmll">some Halloween baking.</a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">That is a wrap for my Halloween blog post and I wanted to share it with you all to show you can still have fun even if the holiday looks different this year. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Make sure to follow me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/">Instagram</a> for more content and fun sponsorships.</span></div>Kassandra Vargashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07352222892225545400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460063986866520186.post-71602682194469938542020-10-09T00:00:00.001-04:002020-10-09T00:00:07.111-04:00How To Style A Simple Outfit<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gw7KMJ_0-0A/X3_HLchKEwI/AAAAAAAADLg/-H7Xn80r-oEw6LsBlgxSObuSrhMsEWG2wCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_6405_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-08-17.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gw7KMJ_0-0A/X3_HLchKEwI/AAAAAAAADLg/-H7Xn80r-oEw6LsBlgxSObuSrhMsEWG2wCLcBGAsYHQ/w480-h640/IMG_6405_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-08-17.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Happy Friday! </span><span style="font-family: verdana;">I can't believe that we are already in the month of October and that the year is coming to an end soon.

In today's post, I want to show you guys how I style a simple outfit with pieces you already have in your closet. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><h4 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Uniform: Basic Tee and Jeans</span></h4><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qtdvbRstnQ8/X3_GiUFh8GI/AAAAAAAADLA/NEhRZLzS-DUSx-bqQ0GPtLpDoRDM8x9fwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_6374_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-06-05.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1535" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qtdvbRstnQ8/X3_GiUFh8GI/AAAAAAAADLA/NEhRZLzS-DUSx-bqQ0GPtLpDoRDM8x9fwCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h480/IMG_6374_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-06-05.HEIC" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">A white tee and skinny jeans are my uniform outfit and I wear these pieces all the time. You could really use any top and bottoms just as long as they are comfortable for layering.</span></div><h4 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Layer: Add a Jacket or Cardigan</span></h4><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OKai7oMpkHk/X3_GqljFs_I/AAAAAAAADLI/tMgR2VxAsKMRUUp_y9B1tzqOJlWOlFr_gCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_6378_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-06-45.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1624" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OKai7oMpkHk/X3_GqljFs_I/AAAAAAAADLI/tMgR2VxAsKMRUUp_y9B1tzqOJlWOlFr_gCLcBGAsYHQ/w508-h640/IMG_6378_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-06-45.HEIC" width="508" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Layering makes any outfit look a little more chic, especially if you add a piece that has a little design. Make sure the piece compliments the other pieces you are wearing in your uniform. As you can see, the white details on my jacket bring attention to my white shirt.</span></div><h4 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Accessorizing: Add Jewelry</span></h4><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jM9quOqw6H4/X3_GyXP6nLI/AAAAAAAADLM/m5Psc7LvRfsL8fFfQRrng9ErVdx5xizzwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_6380_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-07-10.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1487" data-original-width="2048" height="464" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jM9quOqw6H4/X3_GyXP6nLI/AAAAAAAADLM/m5Psc7LvRfsL8fFfQRrng9ErVdx5xizzwCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h464/IMG_6380_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-07-10.HEIC" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;">I love adding jewelry to my outfits and I also make sure that the jewelry compliments the other pieces in my outfit. Gold jewelry looks really good with white and it also goes with the gold buttons on my jacket. </span></div><h4 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Finishing Touch: Shoes and a Handbag</span></h4><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5NKbJgVI8jc/X3_G6Kol3YI/AAAAAAAADLU/Nx8MaZasMU83nkvLbquJzCAA74-lCmVNQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_6400_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-07-48.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1589" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5NKbJgVI8jc/X3_G6Kol3YI/AAAAAAAADLU/Nx8MaZasMU83nkvLbquJzCAA74-lCmVNQCLcBGAsYHQ/w494-h640/IMG_6400_Facetune_08-10-2020-22-07-48.HEIC" width="494" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="text-align: center;">This is the final look. I am obsessed with how it turned out and I think everything came together well. I added some white shoes to go with my white shirt and a simple black crossbody to make it look minimal. </div></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">That's a wrap for how I make a comfy outfit into a classy outfit with just a few pieces. I hope this post inspires you to dress up your basic look into something different.

I am so excited to share my workspace with all of you and I even revamped it to feel cozier and add more character to the space. My home office is located in my room which isn't ideal because mentally it can take a toll on you but over these past couple of months...I've been able to tell my mind the difference between work and personal life. I used to work in my bed but found it was harder to sleep at night and it's because my mind thought of my bed as a place of "work" so that's why I would have trouble falling asleep. Therefore, my desk became my new best friend.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">My desk is from <a href="https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/micke-desk-white-80213074/?gclid=CjwKCAjwkoz7BRBPEiwAeKw3q6_o9yQyMViRR9o8R9H-7ePjPWL3wp24QJcW6EqLjgx_y4xdgpr5xhoCmGQQAvD_BwE">Ikea</a> and it's a perfect size for my bedroom. I love the drawer compartments and the little side door that inside has three shelves to store binders, folders, books, and more. The computers featured in the picture above are supplied from my job but I use my personal laptop at my desk as well. My stationery supplies were purchased a couple of years ago from Target so I am unable to link those for you all.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SiQWML5Bhc/X2QNuffqZ6I/AAAAAAAADIk/7ancbZi8qKQF7Jp0VJc2uK3IT5MYARqzQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/Untitled%2Bdesign%2B%252874%2529.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SiQWML5Bhc/X2QNuffqZ6I/AAAAAAAADIk/7ancbZi8qKQF7Jp0VJc2uK3IT5MYARqzQCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Untitled%2Bdesign%2B%252874%2529.png" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">My favorite addition to my home office is this circle shelf that I bought at <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bmzrh">Target</a>. I looked around for circle shelves but I couldn't really find a gray one like the one above. It matches my room decor perfectly and is big enough to add all sorts of Nik Naks as time goes on. I have some decor from my office at work that is supposed to be getting mailed to me so I am just waiting on that package to add the finishing touches. I purchased my Coffee Fund money box at Homegoods but you can purchase a similar one at <a href="https://www.hobbylobby.com/Home-Decor-Frames/Decor-Pillows/Banks/Coffee-Fund-Coin-Bank/p/80991251?gclid=CjwKCAjwkoz7BRBPEiwAeKw3q9Ll-04KnppoK5QIOcsupGFoobxkq7RV1MTUmggzduftZgXWxJe2jBoCANkQAvD_BwE">Hobby Lobby</a>. The pumpkins on the shelf are from the dollar section at Target as well.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-exrFTQBvJTQ/X2QRIg6NRHI/AAAAAAAADIw/X6SMyasMaikdaJwPDeW9u3cZDx1caunvgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/Untitled%2Bdesign%2B%252874%2529.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-exrFTQBvJTQ/X2QRIg6NRHI/AAAAAAAADIw/X6SMyasMaikdaJwPDeW9u3cZDx1caunvgCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Untitled%2Bdesign%2B%252874%2529.png" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This organizer I purchased from Homegoods is amazing. Not only does it match my decor perfectly, but it's also another area to store any paperwork I have. I want to eventually get matching folders for the top and bottom shelf so it can be more appealing to the eye. You can shop a similar organizer here: <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bmzqp">Wall File Organizer</a></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I also used <a href="https://www.command.com/3M/en_US/command/products/~/Command-Products/Picture-Hanging/?N=5924736+8706801+3294529207+3294857497&rt=r3">Command Products</a> to put up some canvas art in my room and I even used a command hook to hang my purse which I found to be convenient. Hanging up the circle shelf and organizer took some time with the tools and nails so I recommend checking out Command Products if you are looking for a no damage and tool-free-hanging job for your decor. This is also perfect if you are currently living in a dorm or renting an apartment that doesn't allow destruction to the walls.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">That is a wrap for this blog post and if you want to see the behind-the-scenes of creating this post and collaborating with a brand then check out my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/">Instagram</a>!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Disclaimer: I am partnering with Command and Campus Trendsetters for this post.</span></p>Kassandra Vargashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07352222892225545400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2460063986866520186.post-83539238195555436982020-09-11T07:50:00.001-04:002020-09-11T07:50:03.255-04:00Fall Fashion Trends 2020<p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FufI8o9Bf0U/X1p1FWUYyxI/AAAAAAAADHM/1x1mms2I8rADczVTZjDw_sx3_G_nG2uPwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1920/fall%2Bwallpaper.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="350" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FufI8o9Bf0U/X1p1FWUYyxI/AAAAAAAADHM/1x1mms2I8rADczVTZjDw_sx3_G_nG2uPwCLcBGAsYHQ/w625-h350/fall%2Bwallpaper.HEIC" width="625" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Happy Friday! I am so excited to get in the fall fashion mood especially since that's the closest thing to fall that we will experience in Florida. NYFW even looks a little different this year but why not have your own fashion week at home. Today, I am going to share the top trends taking social media by storm and how you can experiment with these trends using pieces from your closet.</span></div><h3 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Shades Of Nude</span></h3><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h_-JwH3Zi-I/X1p5s0XvKBI/AAAAAAAADHY/dw2xNJd5z74nel6oQjTYk3jZt8Yt1IwBgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/shades%2Bof%2Bnude.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h_-JwH3Zi-I/X1p5s0XvKBI/AAAAAAAADHY/dw2xNJd5z74nel6oQjTYk3jZt8Yt1IwBgCLcBGAsYHQ/w500-h500/shades%2Bof%2Bnude.png" width="500" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: verdana;">The color nude isn't new to the fall color palette however the monochromatic nude look is making a come back to my feed. It's such a classic look and anyone can pull it off. You don't need any fancy fashion pieces and it can be affordable. Find some nude pieces in your closet and play around with each piece. If you are looking for some new nude pieces I have included some here: <a href="https://widgets.shopstyle.com/?sc-widget-id=P-5f5a7cd4c09dd018721ffd1c">Shades Of Nude Pieces</a></span></div><h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Baguette Bags</span></h3><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kiyHp7UCdkM/X1qDB2vXftI/AAAAAAAADHk/KMgWAgNzWTYz8YULRL-nAnHVevDMJxzuACLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/baguette%2Bbags.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kiyHp7UCdkM/X1qDB2vXftI/AAAAAAAADHk/KMgWAgNzWTYz8YULRL-nAnHVevDMJxzuACLcBGAsYHQ/w500-h500/baguette%2Bbags.png" width="500" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This summer trend is transitioning into fall and I am here for it. I invested in my own Coach Baguette bag last season and it's been one of my favorite purchases. It is so lightweight and manages to fit all my essentials like my face mask, cardholder, sanitizer, and more. The great thing about these bags is that they are inexpensive and many thrift stores have them. I got mine on Poshmark for under $50. Your older family members may even have one from back in the day too so just ask them. I have linked some baguette bags here as well if you wanted to purchase one or find some inspiration: <a href="https://widgets.shopstyle.com/?sc-widget-id=P-5f5b61f81486e83f02f30a39">Baguette Bags</a></span></div><h3 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Preppy Style</span></h3><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kmf5pOLKBl8/X1qGIXfcSsI/AAAAAAAADHw/PXxaqd593EgJvIR2gNJYaxsuO3EBkWyrQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/baguette%2Bbags%2Bcopy.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kmf5pOLKBl8/X1qGIXfcSsI/AAAAAAAADHw/PXxaqd593EgJvIR2gNJYaxsuO3EBkWyrQCLcBGAsYHQ/w500-h500/baguette%2Bbags%2Bcopy.png" width="500" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I am a huge fan of the preppy look and I think it is one of the styles that best describe my own. Preppy pieces that are trending right now are cropped blazers, tennis skirts, plaid items, and mary jane shoes. Tennis skirts have been a huge trend for summer and we are seeing that transition into fall with the addition of oversized sweater vests. Sweater vests are such a staple piece in your wardrobe and can be layered over a shirt or worn alone. I purchased my own sweater vest at my local goodwill for $4.99. Thrift stores have a variety of sweater vests and I would also check out the men's section as well. Check out these sweater vests for some inspiration: <a href="https://widgets.shopstyle.com/?sc-widget-id=P-5f5b63232b88824e16613fe3">Preppy Style Pieces</a></span></div><h3 style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Colorful Leather</span></h3><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jp4e-Ryldxo/X1teE11i-HI/AAAAAAAADH8/CkpI4KxI5zc-PC69aPXai2Uxgv9EhVt5ACLcBGAsYHQ/s1080/colorful%2Bleather.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="500" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jp4e-Ryldxo/X1teE11i-HI/AAAAAAAADH8/CkpI4KxI5zc-PC69aPXai2Uxgv9EhVt5ACLcBGAsYHQ/w500-h500/colorful%2Bleather.png" width="500" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;">Leather always finds it's way back into fall fashion in its own unique way and this year it's time for colorful leather pieces to get the spotlight. It may be too hot to wear leather in some places right now so you can try a simple leather bag, belt, or jacket to start out with. My favorite thing about any leather piece is that it can elevate an outfit with that minimal effort. Shop some colorful leather pieces here: <a href="https://widgets.shopstyle.com/?sc-widget-id=P-5f5b643c1486e83f02f3e0df">Colorful Leather</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;">That is a wrap for my top fall fashion trends.

I can't believe it's the last Friday of the month. Fall is approaching soon, then Halloween, and then Christmas!!! I hope we are able to enjoy the holiday season during this pandemic but we only can do that if we all wear our masks to slow down the spread of the virus. I am getting used to wearing the masks and it's not so bad once you find a very comfortable one. I made a post about my favorite face masks and you can check it out here: <a href="https://www.stayklassay.com/2020/07/favorite-face-masks.html">Favorite Face Masks</a> </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">My makeup routine has changed over the past months since half of my face is covered by a mask. In this post, I will share with you my favorite products to achieve that natural makeup look.</span></p><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Tinted Moisturizer</span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I've been wearing a tinted moisturizer instead of a foundation because my foundation is too expensive to be wasting all the time. I have been loving the <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1KJ">DRMTLGY Anti-Aging Tinted Moisturizer</a>. It also has SPF 46 so you can get the best of both worlds.</span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Concealer</span></h4><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I use concealer for the days I just want to brighten my under eyes a bit or cover up some blemishes. I have been using the <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1KP">Elf Camo Concealer</a> and it works so well. A little bit of the product goes a long way too.</span></p><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Eyeshadow</span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I am not an eyeshadow expert but I always love a little shimmer on my eyes. My go-to shades are pink and purple. The palette that I use the most is my <a href="https://colourpop.com/products/elsa-eyeshadow-palette">Elsa Shadow Palette</a>.</span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Mascara</span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Lashes are really important especially since people can only see your eyes while wearing a mask. I have been using the <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1Pb">Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes™ 4-in-1 Mascara</a>. It lasts the entire day and provides the best volume and length to my lashes. </span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Blush</span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I love blush so much and it just adds the perfect touch to any makeup look. I have been obsessing over my <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1N3">Kaja Cheeky Stamp</a>. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Lip Gloss</span></h4><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This is my favorite makeup product ever and even though no one can see your lips... I still want to wear gloss no matter what. My favorite lip glosses are the Fenty Beauty <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1QC">Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer</a>. They aren't sticky but do have pigment so it may stain the mask you wear. If you don't want that then I would suggest wearing some chapstick. I like the <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bl1Qr">Maybelline New York Baby Lips</a> because it's a moisturizing balm with a little color.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">That is all for my mask makeup routine and I filmed an Instagram story showing how I use each product.

The back-to-school season came faster than I would've liked but it's here and I am prepared. I am still using a backpack for the online semester so I can store all my supplies in one place.

I hope you guys had an amazing week and I am so excited to be sharing this post with you all. I have been on a journey to find the best shorts that have the perfect fit and size. In this post, I have gathered my favorite brands to showcase their best shorts and styles they have to offer. You can shop for each pair of shorts with the links attached. Make sure to download the </span><a href="https://www.rakuten.com/r/KASSAY11?eeid=28187" style="font-family: verdana;">Rakuten</a><span style="font-family: verdana;"> extension on-to your browser to get coupons and cashback on purchases.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjl8c">Good American</a></b></font></div><font face="verdana">I've been wanting to try shorts from Good American for a while now and I am so glad that I finally did. I will say that some of the shorts are button-up fly instead of a zipper fly and that doesn't work for me. I found one really good pair of shorts called <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjl9m">the Ripped High Waisted Cutoff Shorts</a> with a zip fly. I got a pair in black but those are currently sold out everywhere but they still have the white pair available on Nordstrom Rack. The problem with the button fly shorts is that they are not proportionate to my size and body. The waist was super big causing bundled cameltoe but then it was too tight on my thighs. I tried three different pairs with the button fly and none of them worked. I ordered a size 20 and 22 for reference and they were still huge. The shorts I ended up liking were a size 22 ( I usually size up in shorts and I am a size 16/18 in jeans). I suggest checking out <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjmay">Nordstrom Rack</a> if you want a pair of these shorts but don't want to break the bank. I know these shorts retail for $150 and Good American is having a $99 sale for them but Nordstrom Rack has the same exact shorts for under $50.</font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjmaR">boohoo</a></b><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">Boohoo is also a new brand that I have just ordered from. They are similar to stores like Forever 21 or ASOS. They were having an extra 50% off sale when I ordered my shorts and I got each pair for under $20. My two favorite pairs were the <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjma3">Plus Distressed Ripped Hem Jean Shorts</a> and <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjma5">Plus High Rise Fray Hem Jean Shorts</a>. I got each pair in a size 20 and they were a great fit. I did have a little waist gap but that happens with a lot of my pants. The length on my leg wasn't too short or too long and it landed just above my birthmark. I know that the shorts are selling out quickly so you can check out other pairs here: <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjmbn">Plus Size Denim Shorts</a></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b><a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjmfL">Express</a></b></font><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">As you all may know, I've been an Express Ambassador for a year and a half now and I am obsessed with their clothing. The clothes at Express vary from classy and causal and that is basically my entire wardrobe. I have the pleasure of getting free clothes every month so I've collected a few essentials in my closet. One of my favorites items from the brand is their shorts. They go up to a size 18 and XL. I hope they range in more plus sizes in the future but it's a good start. I love the high waisted shorts and all of them are so stretchy like their jeans. All shorts are on sale right now for $30 so shop them here: <a href="https://shopstyle.it/l/bjmis">Express Shorts</a>. </font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b><a href="https://www.forever21.com/us/shop/catalog/category/plus/plus_size-main">Forever 21</a><br /></b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">I use to shop for my shorts only at Forever 21 for the last couple of years but they don't fit the same anymore. The shorts shrink too fast and the sizes vary. A 3X at Forever 21 is truly a size 16/18 which is not what a size 3X stands for. I think that they need to be more true to size because it defeats the purpose of the plus-size line if 3X is the biggest size for most products. I decided to include Forever 21 in this post because they have my favorite biker shorts. They are lightweight and fit my body perfectly. My favorite pair is sold out but I included some other ones here: <a href="https://www.forever21.com/us/shop/Search/#brm-search?request_type=search&search_type=keyword&q=plus%20size%20biker%20shorts&l=plus%20size%20biker%20shorts">Plus Size Biker Shorts</a></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">We have come to the end of my Plus Size Shorts Guide and I hope I was able to help you find your perfect pair of shorts for this summer. All of the stores mentioned above carry standard sizes as well so feel free to check them out too. I wanted to focus on my personal experience finding and trying these shorts because I know many other plus-size women can relate.

I have made over $500 on the app and I want to share my tips and tricks on running a successful closet. I am also a Posh Campus Rep this semester so I will be learning more about the app and will continue to share more tips on Instagram. Make sure you're following me on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stayklassay/">@stayklassay</a> to get these updates.</font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b>What should I sell on Poshmark?</b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">I suggest selling used clothing at the beginning. If you haven't cleaned out your closet yet you can check out my <a href="https://www.stayklassay.com/2020/03/spring-clean-with-me.html">closet cleanout post</a> or I am offering <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfAJAelY6URVaAZA468HfrYjTgLHst3rBynbZ4wSX7J47nCKQ/viewform">style sessions with Macy's</a> this summer via Zoom and you can sign up for the closet cleanout session. Make sure your clothes are clean and not wrinkled. Many people are online shopping right now due to store closures so clothing is a great way to make money fast on the app. I haven't sold any other items besides clothing but other users do and it's been successful for them. </font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b>How to sign up?</b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">You just need to download the Poshmark app on the App Store and make an account. If you use my invite code <a href="https://poshmark.com/closet/klassayfinds">KLASSAYFINDS</a> you will get a $10 Poshmark credit. You can use your own name or create a unique name for your closet.

I like to have a simple background and good lighting for my photos. I have taken most of my photos against a plain wall or my white rug. It's important to take multiple photos of an item and notate any issues with the item as well. People can rate your products and if you sell bad products then you will have a bad Poshmark status. </font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b>How to be a five-Star Posher?</b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">You want to be a closet that people want to shop at and follow. It's easy to get followers on the app because the algorithm shares your items with multiple people. It's important to share your items at Posh parties because it will highlight your items for a potential sale. You want to make sure you share other poshers items as well because they will share your items with their followers too. Please respond to comments because great communication can lead to sales. The packaging is also important and I will talk about that next. </font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b>How should I package the items?</b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">The great thing about Poshmark is that the customers pay for shipping and they use the USPS Priority Mail system. I have a printer at home so I just print out the labels once an order sells. USPS offers <a href="https://store.usps.com/store/results/shipping-supplies/_/N-7d0v8v?_requestid=27246">free packaging for priority mail</a> and you can get it mailed to your home or pick it up at your local Post Office. I usually wrap my the clothing pieces in tissue paper and place them in the box. I also include a personalized thank you card and business card.

Poshmark does take a little commission so if you want a certain price for the item than list it for a little more. Poshmark takes $2.05 on listings that are $15 and under and 20% commission on listings of $15 and more. Once a customer receives their order they will rate it and you will get your money. If for some reason they don't rate it, Poshmark will release your funds after three days. Customers also cannot return items so your money is guaranteed. You can request a check in the mail but if you have a bank account then direct deposit is the way to go. You can request to redeem your money at any amount and it reflects in your bank account in less than three days. </font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana"><b>How can I shop at the Stay Klassay closet?</b></font></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana">My closet can be found with the username <a href="https://poshmark.com/closet/klassayfinds">@klassayfinds</a>.

With a 100% vote on yesterday's Instagram poll, I am going to share my favorite Trader Joe's essentials with you all in today's post. This post isn't sponsored by Trader Joe's even though I wish it was. I just want to share my favorite products with my honest reviews based on taste and price. Trader Joe's is cheaper than many grocery stores and I have resorted to making it my default place to shop.

The chicken tastes good even without the mandarin sauce. I pair this meal with some Organic Jazmine Rice which I also purchase at Trader Joes. I cook the chicken in the oven for 18 minutes for the perfect crispy taste.

I love so many other items but it would just be too long to name them all. My other favorite thing from Trader Joe's is their flowers. They are always so beautiful and priced affordably. I got two bouquets today for less than $20. My bill for all of my items was $100 which is good for all the items I got (some items I even got double of) and it would have been more expensive anywhere else.

It's not too tight and hasn't tarnished quickly. I suggest not wearing it in the shower or pool but if you do it's very cheap to replace if needed. They have letters A to Z and you can choose either silver or gold. If you want a cute classic necklace in your wardrobe then I suggest snagging this necklace for under $20.</font></span></h3><h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XY659KF/?tag=aiponsite-20&linkCode=ic5&ascsubtag=amzn1.infl.us.product&creativeASIN=B07XY659KF&ref=exp_stayklassay_dp_vv_d"><font face="verdana">Flawless Beauty Mini Fridge</font></a></h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RVOZM-bdzww/XrVkhl0aiSI/AAAAAAAACZw/Lqh8F51fU2g2TNYXV8yW08qT5bfiumjHACK4BGAsYHg/fridge.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2961" data-original-width="3020" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RVOZM-bdzww/XrVkhl0aiSI/AAAAAAAACZw/Lqh8F51fU2g2TNYXV8yW08qT5bfiumjHACK4BGAsYHg/d/fridge.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font size="4"><br /></font></div><div><span style="font-weight: 400;"><font size="4"><br /></font></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><font face="verdana" size="4">I just got this fridge one week ago and I love it! I have always wanted a skincare fridge because cold skincare just feels better on the skin.

<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Happy Friday! April is almost over but it doesn't look like quarantine is going to be anytime soon. I posted a couple of polls on my Instagram so you guys can cast your vote on the content you want to see on my blog so this post is the winner of the first poll. I was looking forward to doing a shopping haul but I may film one on IGTV or review products later in a post. Every day looks different for me because of my actual job but Thursdays are dedicated "blog" days so I decided to document everything I did yesterday. This post will include my routine, recipes, outfits, product favorites, and more.</span></div>

The top left picture has all the other ingredients I used and most of these things you probably have in your home.

I'm getting used to it but still looking forward to being able to go to the mall and Disney soon. I just registered for my online graduation and it made this whole thing feel even more real. I hope we can return to our normal lives very soon.</span><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif"> </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">This isn't everything but these are the essential items I use for my pictures. Your phone works for photos and I used my phone for a long time and still use it as my go-to for outfit photos. Amazon also has other affordable ring lights you can purchase but I just linked the one I have.</span></div>

<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Photo Tips</span></h3>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Use a curtain or sheet for a backdrop. I usually just thumbtack them to the wall.</span></li>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Self-timer is your best friend. Canon has an app so you can use your phone as the remote and you can even see the photo in real-time.</span></li>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">If you wear glasses like me... place the ring light on top of you so the reflection doesn't show in your lenses.</span></li>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Lighting is everything. I love taking my selfies in front of windows. Sunlight will always be the best light.</span></li>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Don't worry about the perfect photo because editing can fix any lighting, shadows, and color issues.</span></li>
<li><span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">Have fun and be confident.</span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span face=""verdana" , sans-serif" style="font-family: verdana;">This is the perfect time to curate your brand on social media so if you just have your phone and sunlight that is really all you need. It's not about the equipment but the creativity you have in your photo. </span></div>
