About Us

We are two best friends (and roommates!) who have fallen in love with fashion. After being inspired by several fashion blogs, we've decided to think a little longer about what we put on in the morning. :P So join us as we keep calm & style on!

about erin
Hello, I'm Erin! I tend to land myself in awkward situations and I have a tendencey to say things that sound dirty...but really aren't. My family, friends, and boyfriend are a huge part of my life - if not for them I wouldn't exist (literally!). I love large puppies, hot drinks, sashimi, Disneyland, and anything having to do with love. I hope you enjoy my adventures!

about caroline
Hiya, I'm Caroline! I love photography, Harry Potter, anything related to Disney/Disneyland, corgis, and baking. Most of all, I love my family, friends and boyfriend -- all of which will eventually appear in my posts. :) I'm simple, awkward and dorky - so prepare for that, haha. :D

Featuring Friends and Family Friday #8: Daniel
Friday, April 22, 2011



It's Friday yet again, which means another FF&FF! :D This week we're going to be featuring someone pretty important to Caroline. :)

Meet Daniel!


Daniel is Caroline's boyfriend and is friends with Erin. In fact, that's how they met! Daniel and Erin lived in the same dorm during our freshman year of college and (if you remember from our feature on Sam) Caroline and Erin were friends during orientation. So in the beginning of the school year, Erin introduced Caroline to Daniel... and yeah! :D

Enough about that, let's show you his sense of style.



Daniel's style can best be described as pretty casual and a tad bit preppy... in a good way! Oh, and he has a lot of stripes in his closet. :)



This cardigan is one of Caroline's favorite pieces of clothing that Daniel owns -- but she's biased because she bought it for him for Christmas. :P



Cardigan: Present from Caroline || Shirt: Present from cousin in Korea || Jeans: Calvin Klein || Sunglasses: Vans

Awesome Facts About Daniel:
1. He loves all kinds of music - from trance to hip hop, rock to classical, and everything in between.
2. He enjoys working with computers (making them AND playing on them).
3. He likes to play a variety of sports, especially basketball and baseball.



There you go! We hope you liked this week's feature! Have an amazing weekend, everyone! :D

Featuring Friends and Family Friday #7: Clemrose
Friday, April 15, 2011



Hello!  This Friday is a super special Friday because we get to introduce you to our third best friend!

Meet Clemrose!


Erin and I met her the first week of college. Erin and Clem were neighbors in their dorm and while moving in, they both ignored each other and both assumed the other was the mean Filipina princess-type. Turns out neither of them are and are in fact the opposite. :) Caroline and Clem met through Erin. And now, four years later, we're all best friends! :D Now let's show you Clem's sense of style...



Clemrose's wardrobe consists of many bright, girly colors. Although her style has changed in the years that we've known each other (just like ours have changed), the colors that she loves haven't. She has lots of pinks, corals, red and bright blues. What we love about her outfits are that they are very casual.



We love the detail of the back of her cardigan and the bright red!



This ring (that she wears on a chain) is from her boyfriend, Joebel (J) (remember him?). This ring is very special to him, so giving it to her is pretty symbolic of his trust in her. Clem views the ring as a memory of their "honeymoon period" of when they first started dating. :)



Look at the buttons on her sleeves! They're so cute... just like her!

Cardigan:Borrowed || Camisole: ??? || Shorts&Belt:F21


Fun Facts About Clemrose:
1. She changes about 22 diapers every 3 hours at her work (she works with infants and toddlers!).
2. She loves scrapbooking and in our opinion she has an amazing eye for it!
3. She loves the color coral!

Yay, there you go! We're so glad to have introduced you to someone who means so much to us both. Happy Friday, everyone! :)

Featuring Family & Friends Friday #4
Friday, March 25, 2011


So far we've just had features of our friends, but today we have our first family post - Caroline's youngest sister!

Meet Noe (short for Noelle)!



(And our dog, Aslan... haha.) Noe is Caroline's youngest sister - she's in the 6th grade and she's already almost taller than Caroline! She is growing up to be such a beautiful young lady and she's also trying out different styles of clothing, so we wanted to feature her current style. (Remember trying to define yourself in middle school? That's exactly what's going on here, except she is doing a waaaay better job than we did in middle school!)


Pretty stylish for a 6th grader, eh?


Her new glasses have these cute flowers on the ends!


"Wingardium Leviosa!"

Fedora: Hand-Me-Down from Caroline || Cardigan: Hand-Me-Down from Aurora (our middle sister) || Shirt: Express || Shorts: Target || Flats: Payless


Random Fun Facts About Noe:
1. She likes to dance.
2. She likes platypuses/platypi (whatever the plural for "platypus" is, haha).
3. She doesn't like cranberry juice



Yay, hope you enjoyed our first family post for our FF&FF! Happy Friday, everyone!

Featuring Family & Friends #3: Joebel (J)
Friday, March 18, 2011



Despite it being the finals week, we still have a FF&FF post for you guys! We're going to have our very first guy featured on our blog. Nope, he is not either of our boyfriends. In fact, he is the boyfriend of our third best friend, Clemrose. Don't worry, she'll be featured soon enough. We're excited for you to meet her, too. But until then...

Meet Joebel!


But we just call him J! And yeah, not even "Jay"... just "J". Like the letter, haha. We met J almost a year and a half ago when he started to court date our best friend, Clem. Their story is actually a cute one. You know that Michael Buble song "Haven't Met You Yet"? Well, Clem loved it instantly and listened to it 24/7. Two weeks later, she met J and they've been together ever since. :) Yes, we're saying that it was all Michael Buble's doing. :P

Anyway, in addition to him being our best friend's boyfriend, he has also become a great friend to the both of us. And this is why we decided to feature him this week. :)


Erin and I realized that we didn't know any poses for guys, but J is just a natural in front of the camera!




"CG" are Clem's initials. She has a matching one with his initials, too. Also, his tattoo translates to, "Nothing Without God."


Lastly, he has the best accessory ever: their American Eskimo puppy, Micah! :D


Shirt:H&M || Hoodie: Forever 21 || Jeans: Republic || Shoes: Diesel || Sunglasses: Ray Ban

Super Fun Facts About J:
1. He speaks Spanish, Tagalog and Italian.
2. He can do one arm push-ups.
3. He can teach people how to Dougie!
(He still has yet to teach us... guess it's time to learn!)


So we hope you enjoyed this post. There's not a lot of guys on fashion blogs, but you can look forward to us featuring our own boyfriends and our other guy friends too. :)

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! ♥

Featuring Friends and Family Friday #2: Stephanie
Friday, March 11, 2011



Hey bloggers! So this fun Featuring Family and Friends Friday continuous! We are so happy to introduce someone who we've known our entire college career and has truly made it interesting.

Meet Stephanie!


Stephanie was actually Erin's roomate from first year! (About 4 years ago)Although she may seem sweet and timid in these pictures, she's not! Back in the day, she was quite a handful because this girl likes 
to play pranks like no other. Of course its all fun and games; and we both admit that she is pretty hilarious. And has an amazingly contagious laugh. Although we don't regularly hang out, we all still keep in touch because we all work at the same place on our campus- Disabilities Service Center. I know you guys love the little story that we have about our friends, but I know you guys really just want to see some pictures!

So here we go!


She is also really quirky and creative. And it shows through her accessories and her style, which we'd like to describe as relaxed and cool.  Stephanie said that this necklace was given to her from her boyfriend for Valentine's Day! (She picked it out) 


You see that blue colored beanie she's wearing? Apparently she bought this beanie from this vagabond named Scottie who loves to knit and is actually really good at it. It's her favorite thing to wear as of right now. 


Hat: Knitted by guy named Scottie || Cropped Sweater: Piko 1988 from Wasteland || Dress:  Urban Outfitters || Necklace The Closet; gift from boyfriend || Shoes: Piperlime

Some Fun Facts about Stephanie!
1. I have a pet snake. It's the length of my arm 
2.I'm a prankster at heart. (Erin knows what I'm talking about) 
3. About once a week, I can go for a burger, fries, and a coke. 

So there you go! We hope you enjoyed our 2nd FF&FF, as much as we did. :)

Featuring Friends and Family Friday #1: Carmel
Friday, March 4, 2011



Hi bloggers! So today is our very first Featuring Family & Friends Friday (or FF&FF for short!). This is our way of introducing you to the important people in our lives and also showcasing their style! All of these individuals have influenced us in some way (and not just through fashion) and we love them an incredible amount. :) We're super excited to get this part of our blog running, so here is our very first featured friend!

Meet Carmel!



Carmel is one of our roommates (but shares a room with Erin). She is best friends with Unaiza (our other roomie), who introduced us to her two years ago. Little did we know, we would become such good friends. Carmel is one of our most fashionable friends - so fashionable, in fact, that she landed a job last summer at Forever 21. You can imagine the excitement in our apartment when she got the job. :P We describe Carmel's style as urban with a touch of femininity - but she's so pretty, she could make sweatpants look good! Now I know you're excited to see her style, so let's get to it!




She has the cutest accessories - including this owl coin necklace!





Everything Carmel is wearing is from Forever 21! :D (Oh the perks of having worked at F21... you get an awesome wardrobe, haha.)

Fun Facts about Carmel
1. She's attracted to purple but has noticed that there's a lot of black in her wardrobe.
2. Says she's not very good with a lot of attention like the camera and an audience (which is a total surprise because she's a dancer and has danced in front of  hundreds of people!)
3. She likes math and science.


And there you go! Our very first FF&FF post! We'll be showcasing our friends and family every Friday, so we hope you look forward to it as much as we do. :)
