The Basics

 
 
Hello, Everyone!!!

A white shirt is essential in every women's wardrobe. It is imperative that you owe at least two white shirts so you swap them out  because it does not stay stark white after a few wears. They can be added to any outfit to add a level of sophication.  This particular shirt I brought before my weight loss so I tied the tails of the shirt higher than usual so my waist doesn't disappear in the extra material. I wore my over the knee boots because they blend seamlessly with my denim/leather chaps, at first glance they look like thigh high boots I.e Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. I threw on a leather jacket to wear under my wool coat because it was beyond freezing on this day.
  It's where fashion meets functionality, the perfect combination.!!!!!

All Wrapped Up




Hello, Everyone!!!


A wrap coat is a style that has been worn by every celebrity from Kim kardashian to other A -list stars and for good reason. It is a timeless  classic coat that is easy to wear but also gives comfort because it resembles a house robe you usually lounge around in at home on a lazy day. The oversized lapel and attached wrap belt will keep you warm and cozy but in style.
Over the weekend,  I wanted to add some sophistication to my casual weekend look by  draping a taupe oversized wrap coat over my shoulders for a slimming effect. Underneath the coat I layered a burgundy sweater over a longer top for the perfect crop top effect. I don't need a reason to add a fur vest to any look so I choose an off white vest to top it off. I decided to dress down the look by pairing it with  matching burgundy wedge sneakers.

Suede Culottes

  
 
 
Hello, Everyone!!!!!


Over the weekend I was invited to my godbabies 1st birthday party which was a blast. Unfortunately the weather was not on my side, it is now feeling like January with our first snow flurries. However the upside I got to wear my new suede camel culottes that I brought for myself as a Christmas gift. Camel will remain an classic but luxe shade that can be paired well with any color but also looks defined when worn from head to toe. I try to combine several shades of camel to complete the look starting with suede platform boots that I've owned since high school. The platform boots are a few shades darker than the culottes which make them a perfect match. I've recently purchase a few matte liquid lipsticks from Colourpop that are dupes for the Kylie Lip Kit that I am loving right now. To break up the camel I topped off the look with a black leather contrast sleeve camel coat. Camel and black are the perfect color combination to wear for Winter.

Leopard Lady

Hello, Everyone!!!.  Yesterday was another beautiful day in New York City and I am loving it. I kept my look casual by pairing old basics with a few trendy pieces.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I started off with a simple white T-shirt that I paired with my leather joggers that are very trendy at the moment.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The leather elevates the casual nature of the traditional sweatpants/joggers. I love a fabulous boot with a heel however I decided to take a mini-break from heels and wear slip on sneakers with a leopard print.


 

 
 
 
 
 It is the perfect print that goes with everything without overwhelming the entire look.  I choose to layer an oversized hoodie under my trench coat to keep me warm when the temperature drops at night.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I am looking forward to more days like this...

Marsala, Much?

Hello, Everyone,  I hope you having a good week so far.
 This is what I wore to school yesterday. According to the Pantone Color Institute, Marsala is the color of the year. In the words of the Executive Director, Leatrice Eiseman "This hearty, yet stylish is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors". It can easily be used in your home or your wardrobe, HOW GREAT IS THAT?.

 
 
 
Burgundy is the great color to wear monochromatic other than the traditional black or white. I dressed myself from the bottom to the top  starting with these pair of burgundy wedge sneakers. I paired the sneakers with colored jeans in the same color. These very frigid temperatures in NYC has made my faux fur vest a major fixture in my daily outfits. they add warmth under my Winter coats but also a stylish flair.



I decided to wear a pinkish beige under the faux fur vest and I topped it off a statement necklace. My marsala obsession did not end there I also decided to carry a marsala colored bag to hold all of my necessities for the day.
