INSIDE MY CLOSET: BUSTIERS

A bustier is a piece of women's clothing which can be worn as an undergarment or an over garment, depending on style and personal taste. Modern day bustiers are a mix between a bra and a top. What I love the most about bustiers is that they look incredibly feminine (if worn correctly), they are sexy without being vulgar (again, if worn correctly), and they force you to go to the gym to work on those abs (fight club is kicking my Style by Red ass). If you feel you're still not in good enough shape to wear a bustier this season, fear not, you have time to start working out for next year's spring summer. I already saw the resort collections and bustiers are def making a come back. 

Just a couple of weeks ago I was having one of those insanely depressing days us women have once in a while due to hormonal peeks in which the only thing that will make us feel better is impulse shopping. Needless to say I headed myself to my happy place Anthropologie and bought the cutest little polka dot bustier that looks more like a bra than anything else (maybe because it is a bra) but I'm still gonna wear it as a bustier. I promise I wont look trashy. I was planning to wear my bustier underneath a white button down J.Crew linen shirt (slightly unbuttoned to show some sexy cleavage) and Anthropologie printed shorts. J.Crew and Anthropologie my favorite mix.

Heres a photo of my newly acquired bustier. Isn't it divine? Later on this week I'll be sharing with you the complete outfit and also stick around for my "How to Wear a Bustier" coming to you tomorrow.

STYLE BY RED IS BACK BLOGGING FROM MIAMI!

I'm back! I'm sorry I left you guys hanging there but I was going thru a period of transition. I also had an identity crisis moment. You guys are just gonna have to get used to this type of behavior of mine because I have an identity crisis every other day and I'm way past my twenties (ok not that much, I'm only a thriving 34 year old). I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with the blog, I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue being a red head, I wasn't sure of a lot things but after a while I noticed how much I missed blogging and how much I missed my red hair. Being a red head was one of my greatest adventures! 

Let me give you a rather short review of what has happened to me this past three months. On April 26 I moved to Miami to study fashion merchandising at the Miami International University of Art and Design. This means that from now on I'm a new Miami fashion and lifestyle blogger, blogging from the sunshine city (tropical chic gets me so excited!). I made a rather tough choice a while ago and decided to leave my career, family, and friends in Guatemala and move to Miami in pursuit of my dreams. I wanted to learn and experience new things, meet new people, change sceneries, and expand my horizons. It took me a good three months to get acclimated (when I just got here I was so stressed a little vein on my left eye popped and so I looked like I was high for like a month. Not very attractive) but now I'm ready to start sharing some exciting Miami fashion and lifestyle with you guys. I think this new phase of mine is going to be so much more exciting. 

Hope you guys stick around for more Style by Red adventures in the sunshine city.
