Jimi X Who What Wear

Hello, Everyone!!!.

Fall is officially here but it was very warm last week when me and my boyfriend went to go see the movie "The Birth of A Nation", and I must say it is must see. I was able to wear my mules for probably the last time. *single tear cry*

If this jacket look familiar, it is from the Who What Wear collection from Target. I had my eyes on this frayed denim jacket since its release so I was super excited when it was on clearance for less than $12. I paired it with my favorite graphic Jimi Hendrix t-shirt and a black midi.

Dashing Women

Hello, Everyone!!!!.

Last week I attended a company gala that called for a semi-formal dress code, and immediately I went into panic mode. Mentally I went over what I had in my closet and realized I didn't have anything that followed those guidelines. A day before the gala I ended up finding a two piece lace set in dark green that I planned on wearing as a dress, by tucking the top into the skirt, as a back up outfit. However on the day of the gala I changed my mind when I rediscovered this burgundy velvet suit in my closet. If you haven't heard, velvet is a big trend for this fall season. It is definitely attention grabbing and for good reason it screams LUXE!!!. I've never receive so many compliments in one night in my life clearly I made the right choice.

Essence Style

 

 

Hello, Everyone!!!.

 

 

I've been waiting for the perfect opportunity to take pictures in front of this colorful brick wall along the BQE, and luckily I was giving the opportunity last weekend, thanks to the Essence Street Style Block Party in Dumbo. I went to the first annual Essence Street Style with my mom but this time around I went with my boyfriend. 

 

 

When we first arrived, we made a beeline for the food trucks to gain some energy for the festivities. As always they were plenty of natural hair and style stars in the building. I saw some of my favorite bloggers including honoree Blake Von D, HeyGorJess, Taren Guy, and also singer Kelly Rowland. After being in the scorching heat for hours, it was nice to top the day off with a refreshing pineapple filled with Blue Hawaiian cocktail.  Sorry I didn't get any pics, it was just too good I couldn't resist.

 

 

 

P.S. I have to give full credit to my boyfriend who helped me picked out my outfit because I matched so seamlessly with the background.

Easy Breezy Coral-Girl

 



Hello, Everyone!!!.

 

 

It is the last unofficial weekend of the Summer and my first post of September. Before Hurricane Hermine puts a damper on the labor day weekend I decided to rock this coral high-low dress one last time. I gravitate towards this dress every season because its screams summer but it also great to wear on cooler summer days. Normally I pair it with cognac accessories and shoes but this time around I choose nude cage heels and snakeskin bag. I changed the look of the dress by wearing it slightly off my shoulders to be on trend.

Schutz Dupe

Hello, Everyone!!!.

 

As we all know, major designers set the trends of the fast fashion stores. Some trends catch on quicker than other, case in point the Juliana by Schutz although it is not a very expensive shoe, many retailers have duped these amazing shoes. When I saw these sandals at Target I immediately thought about the Juliana's, they are the perfect heels to wear at a summer wedding. For the wedding I paired these heels with a hybrid navy dress that showcases two current trends of the moment, the off the shoulder and one shoulder, it was the perfect match.

 

 

........more views of the shoes

 

 

Here are a few fashion bloggers who rocked the original Juliana

Top (L-R): Awed by Monica,  My White T, Kyrzayda
Bottom (L-R): Atlantic Pacific, Olivia Pierson, A Love Affair with Fashion



Until next time, XOXO

Fringe Around

 

 

 

Hello Everyone!!!

 

It's been awhile since we last spoke but there are big changes in my life. Not only am I at a criticial point in my  last year of school, but me and my boyfriend are taking measures to prepare and start our own family. I have not been posting any outfit post because I've been busy figuring out real life situations. However we all need a break from reality so me and my boyfriend had a impromptu brunch and movie date. We decided to see the movie "Now You See Me 2" and this is what I wore. The denim jacket was a life saver because for some reason in the summer, the AC is always blasting in the city. I paired the denim jacket with a short sleeve faux suede dress and my overused fringe bag.
