My Sister's Closet

Do not let your beauty come from the outside. Your beauty should come from the inside. It should come from the heart. This is the kind that lasts. Your beauty should be gentle and quiet spirit. In God's sight, this is of great worth and no amount of money can buy it. - I Peter 3:3-4

White & Barefoot

White Dress: Urban Outfitters\ Black Heels: Brazil

Today’s look is very simple and girly. This white dress fits Mikaella absolutely perfect and looks stunning on her. It’s definitely a must-have “staple item” because it’s so simple, you can literally throw on ANYTHING & it’ll look great. Also perfect for the Spring/Summer season :)

Girl of the Week: Mikaella Bley

Army Green Tank: NordstromHigh-Low Floral Skirt: Brandy MelvilleBlack Heels: Brazil

This Brazilian beauty’s name is Mikaella Bley. She’s 16 years old and originally from Curitiba, Brazil. I chose Mikaella to be my girl of the week because of her exotic look. Not to mention she’s curvy in all the right places and is STILL very pretty. Getting to know “Mika”, I can tell she’s a very confident & sweet girl. Confidence in your own skin is key when your living in this society and I love that Mika doesn’t let the whole “Hollywood scene” corrupt her into thinking she should look different.

Her look today is simple & dainty :)

Girl[s] of the Week: Twins!

Jahziel: Polka Dot Dress: Anat B \ Belt: H&M \ Heels: Guess \ Purse: Michael Kors

Jeziel: Taupe Top: Zara \ Khaki Shorts: Zara \ ClutchMichael Kors

That’s right..this week I got 2 for 1- Sisters! Jahziel & Jeziel Castaneda are identical twins. Although they may look the same, these sisters definitely show their own individuality. Along with Jahziel’s sweet girly style and Jeziel’s “preppy boho” look, what will really attract you is their calm but funny relationship. The girls have been inseparable from birth and although they won’t admit it, you can tell they really love each other! <3

Question #1: What or who influences your style? Where do you mostly shop?

Jahziel- “I really like how Rachel Bilson and Miley Cyrus dress but I wouldn’t say that they influence my style. I guess living so close to the beach is what influences my style the most. I shop mostly at Brandy Melville, H&M, Forever 21, and Urban Outfitters. But I do occasionally buy things from Zara and Anat B too.”

Jeziel- “The weather has a huge impact on how I dress. I really like how the Olsen twins dress. I like to shop at more pricier stores like Brandy Melville, Zara,  etc.) so I don’t buy the same thing that everyone else has.”

Question #2: How do you keep from looking like others?

Jahziel- I dress for myself and don’t really care what’s trendy or what’s in style. I just wear what’s comfortable and fits my body.”

Jeziel- Following some trends is fine but I think the key to not looking like everyone else is learning how to mix and match different pieces together & having a concrete idea of how you wanna look. I also try to dress for my body type, I don’t buy things that’ll only look good on a super skinny girl.”


Jeziel

White Shorts: Hollister \ Teal&Black Tee: Urban Outfitters \ Heels: Dolce Vita

Jeziel Castaneda, also 17 years old, describes her style as bohemian and I agree with her. However, Jeziel was chosen to be my girl of the week because I love how she mixes her “boho” style with a little bit of preppyness. She also loves accessorizing with designer watches and heels. She says she doesn’t leave the house without them because she puts together her simple outfits with these key accessories.

Jeziel LOVES to go to the beach and tan with her sister as well so there is a little bit of a beachy side to her wardrobe…hence the SHORTS! 

Jahziel

Knit Top: F21 \ Floral Shorts: F21 \ Watch: Marc Jacobs \ Purse: Nine West

Jahziel Castaneda is 17 years old and stands 5 feet and 3 inches tall. She and her sister live in West LA, California.

Jahziel was chosen as one of my girls for the week because of her girly and simple style. Her wardrobe consists of over-sized tops and TONS of shorts. She doesn’t accessorize much except with a watch and ofcourse, a purse. Jahziel’s style reflects a very beachy look- probably because going to the beach and tanning is really all she loves to do! She says she keeps her daily outfits simple and easy to take off so it’s never a hassle whenever she tans.
