POLISHED ONYX

Happy Thursday!

I know what ya’ll are thinking. “Shorts in winter time? Have you lost your mind?!” As I mentioned in my previous post, the weather in NYC has been a bit crazy. I took advantage of one of the warmer days to wear these leather bermuda shorts.

I figured it was the perfect time to wear these shorts. To be completely honest, I do not wear these in the summer time— the lining on them is pretty thick and I would just melt away lol. They are bermuda shorts so they are passed my knees. I decided to pair them with high boots to create a more extended outline around my legs.

Those who know, know how much I love turtle necks and extended neck tops. Apart from being warm, they are a perfect layering pieces.

NATURAL COMFORT

Happy Sunday ya’ll!

The weather here in NY has been so inconsistent. It’s crazy to think in December we are having days in the high 40°s almost 50° but hey, i’m not complaining! I guess times are changing, right? Now that things are slowly but surely going back to “normal” and remote work is not as customary— I actually have to get dressed to go to work lol.

Let me tell ya’ll about these flats i’ve been obsessed with! I usually stay away from flats because my foot is wide and all of the flats I have tried just don’t work and to be honest, are really uncomfortable. After some research, I came across Empress and they were exactly what I was looking for; minimal, catered to wider feet and of course, chic.

BLACK & CAMO

I think it's safe to say that camo is definitely a staple/closet classic. There has always been something camo in my closet— whether it be pants, a jacket or a bag. Como is definitely timeless and can be paired with almost anything.

I found these cargos on my last trip to the Dominican Republic, my aunt was driving and I saw a lady selling clothes outside— I saw these from a mile away, screaaaamed and made my aunt stop! And now they are mine.

FALL IN CAMEL

Hi ya’ll! I cannot believe we are in November already, time is flying by!

Lately my attire has been about comfortability and and transition. I have been gravitating towards pieces that can easily transition from workwear to a more casual polished feel. I also love layering, it allows you to play around with pieces you already own and experiment with different textures and fabrics.

SLEEVELESS TRENCH

Hi!

The weather in New York has been all over the place, honestly. Mama nature (global warming) is not playing with us.
Ya’ll know i’m a big fan of a classic trench coat- it’s a staple piece in my opinion. I purchased this sleeveless trench for a shoot and ended up not using it, and kept it for myself haha! I love it because it allows for interesting layering. It is perfect for the weather we’ve been having lately where you don’t necessarily need a full coat but need to stay warm, that’s where the laying comes in. It’s comfy and easy to combine.

Happy Monday ya’ll!

Now that I am focusing on minimizing my wardrobe and creating somewhat of a capsule wardrobe for myself— I have been on the hunt for some classic high quality staple pieces. A few months ago, I was looking for a black blazer and scored this Givenchy tux blazer at a thrift store for the low low! (LOL)

Adding a blazer can change and elevate any look. You can take a pair of jeans to the next level by adding a blazer, like I did with this look. I paired this blazer with these vintage Tommy Hilfiger jeans and my favorite boots at the moment. To complete the look I added a vintage Gucci bum bag waist fanny pack to add some definition to my waist and add a bit of contrast to the black.

Hi ya’ll!

The weather in NY has been so up and down, it’s almost hard getting dressed. As comfortability remains a staple in my everyday dressing, these 2 in 1 training pants are my fav at the moment. They are so versatile and needless to say, comfortable!

Happy Monday beloveds!

I love styling pieces that don’t go together but that do go together (if that makes sense) lol. On my search for a black blazer, I came across this vintage Givenchy tuxedo jacket and I had to have it! I paired it with these wide leg pants from H&M and honestly, it was the perfect match. I love the silhouette of this outfit.

One Outfit, Two Ways

One thing I love is being able to use one piece multiple different ways- but being able to style 2 outfits out of one is so fun to me. I love that I can be creative but also, it contributes to a more minimal and sustainable wardrobe (something I am trying to do.)

Hi ya’ll!

I know it’s been a while and to be completely honest— I kind of gave up blogging and started focusing solely on my styling career. Recently, it was my blog’s 9 year anniversary and that sparked something in me to start blogging again; and well, here I am!
