Q&A: Fashion Blogger – Natalie Off Duty StyleSpotting™ Natalie:My sister introduced me to blogging at first and I was completely fascinated, spending the entire day going through the top blogs.

Natalie Off Duty: We the Free With the grungy setting just off the water of the Navy Yard, I couldn't feel more inspired. The more I visit the offices, the more of the relaxed Cali girl comes out in me. Here I layered chunky necklaces and rings onto this simple, yet beautiful blouse. This look felt very "me" the moment I...

Natalie Off Duty: Floral in Philadelphia I paired a great pair of trousers with a button up, a leather jacket, a floral scarf, and my Ferragamo flats (which happen to always travel in my suitcase with me).

I'm obsessed with this piece! The pastel floral print and faux fur collar gives off such a classic vintage vibe. I threw it on over a...

Natalie Off Duty: Rustic Getawway It inspires me to go on some crazy retreat in the middle of nowhere with nothing but grungy layers in off whites and rust colored shades. A head of salty ombre hair and a tan little butt isn't bad either! This editorial is too perfect. Rarely do I stumble upon one I really love. It's got me...

Natalie Off Duty: Pink and Tie Dye Can't really get any better than that! This might just be one of my favorite ensembles for a weekend off duty. I love having little breaks from the crazy nyc lifestyle. Already looking forward to my next visit!

Mary-Kate and Ashley Enlist Natalie Off Duty for Olsenboye Natalie Suarez of Natalie Off Duty is the latest on the blogger block, and the model turned fashion blogger hangs out in her room, walks around Cali and looks cute in all things Olsenboye for the new campaign vid. It's a genius bit of marketing, and the clothes, including a little white...

Natalie Off Duty: City Catonly to get prepared for more travels. Where's the airborne?!

Natalie Off Duty: It's My Birthday! Traveling, working, moving to the east coast, and kind of just making my own path. It's has been a wild ride but this past year has been one of the best years of my life. That extra feeling of being one ancient son of a gun is just part of the package. Anyways, I've already been receiving...

Natalie Off Duty: Picnic Pretty With the trains being completely wack on the weekends, we were basically stuck in transit all day long making getting from Williamsburg to Manhattan and back to Brooklyn a complete nightmare! It was like herds of cattle coming off the L train. It was completely exhausting, but a ridiculous...

Natalie Off Duty: Afternoon Drizzle I kicked off the week at the IFB conference over at Milk Studios in the Meatpacking District. There, I spoke on the panel "Business and Blogging" along with a few other well known bloggers. It was a really great event and it was pretty refreshing to hear more about the business side of...

Natalie Off Duty: Batty Natty It was an old building and the black paint was chipping off, but it definitely had that classic New York charm. I always feel like wearing stripes now, it is such a New York thing! The shoes are perfect for when I need to wear heels in the city. With the thick sole, they feel like sneakers!...

Natalie Off Duty: Hello There Amsterdam! But I'm feeling adventurous and thinking of sporting something a little more exciting these next few days in Denmark! My mind is a bit scattered right now, as I'm running on barely any sleep, but I can't wait to share more stories with you on my European travels!

Natalie Off Duty: Weekend Industriesoffs. To go with it, I threw on a big button down shirt with rolled up sleeves. This is one of my favorite weekend looks. To make this denim short/ boyfriend shirt combo a bit more me, I opted for this amazing purple hue instead of the usual blue denim and slipped into another summer staple of...

It's going to be one party,...

Natalie Off Duty: En La Boqueria! You know those ones that melt in your mouth? Also ended up taking too many pictures in front of the food (I think we pissed off every food stand for touching and posing next to everything!) But La Boqueria is absolutely beautiful. The way the food is displayed is art itself. Totally picture...

Natalie Off Duty: Checkmate But I took off my wool coat just for you. How could I not when I've got this rad Nicole Miller Artelier blouse on? Check.MATE. I'm obsessed with this sketched print along with the hot pop of blue from the back. Straight off the Spring '12 runway, it can't get any cooler. And I'm a huge fan of...

Natalie Off Duty: City Search I'm such a comfort baby when it comes to traveling. I hate dragging myself back to my hotel room only to tear off my shoes and fall face first into my bed. These babies saved my life! Paired with liquid leather pants and a studded button-down I was feeling quite European chic. Getting in the...

Natalie Off Duty: Weekend Kicks Anyways, these sneaks saved my feet's lives and are kind of now my "off duty" staple. I love their 70's vibe...similar to a pair my Dad used to wear with what used to be cool neon shorts and a giant beard (lord help me). They're back and cooler than ever. I'm obsessed. Where can I get more...

Natalie Off Duty: Hot PinkThe more I travel, the weirder I get with style. Never fully packed, I always end up just throwing a bunch of layers on...anything for warmth basically.
