NYC

   Camo has been a print that has really stuck over the years and always finds it's way to be a trendy but unique look. I found these camo pants on Naked Wardrobe and couldn't resist. Camo is a style that works for me because it gives you the edgy casual feel with the leather jacket and vans but you are also able to dress it up with heels if you want to because they are fitted at the bottom. I also find that camo is a good neutralizer, it goes with most pieces and looks even better with black, white or nude in my eyes.

Here are a couple quick shots of me in my Naked Wardrobe camo pants at Grand Central and out and about around the city for some inspo on how to wear camo pants and where you can cop a cute affordable pair at Naked Wardrobe!

COLD CITY DAYS

Sooo... these past couple days I went up to the city to visit my friend Rebecca to go see a concert and go hang out in the city visiting museums. We visited the MOMA (The Museum of Modern Art) located in Midtown Manhattan featuring all different kinds of modern art, we were particularly interested in the fashion exhibit on the evolution of clothing but the museum also show cased beautiful art work and work from artists from all over the world. After the MOMA I went to visit the Louis Vuitton VVV exhibit that is showing for only a few months, showcasing the evolution of the ingenious brand that has made traveling so effortless, luxurious and uniquely fashionable.

The first day I was in the city it was freezing so I decided to try my best to stay warm with a big J.Crew cashmere sweater (I actually have two shirts on under the sweater lol because none of my jackets would fit over the arms of my sweater!! perfect tip for still staying warm without a jacket over your bulky sweaters.) and my Gucci fur slippers, I paired them with a pair of black ripped PAIGE denim jeans and Cèline cat eye glasses.  
 Thanks for visiting!!

BOOTS BOOTS BOOTS


     Keeping warm on days that aren't cold enough for a jacket can be difficult to find something warm enough but not too warm to wear. This Frame Denim Duster is perfect for being comfortably warm and still looking chic on a fall afternoon.
    I paired the duster with the iconic J'adore Dior 8 shirt, known for being seen on idol Carrie Bradshaw from Sex And The City 2 movie. Also pairing the outfit with these grey super skinny raw hem Hudson Jeans. Finishing the look off with my new "Intentionally _____" leather boot.
     From leather booties to over the knee boots no winter wardrobe is fully complete without a new pair of boots (mine are these "Intentionally _____" one's). If you invest in a nice pair of boots they tend to last much longer than a cheaper pair but.... taking care of them is key to having them last you.  Here are a couple tips for breaking in your new boots and helping them withstand age as well as there form.

1. Stuff them when not being used.  

 Stuffing your boots while they are sitting in your closet is your best bet at keeping the shape you want them to remain in after breaking them in. There are many things you could stuff them with like towels, tennis balls, or boot stuffers that you can find sometimes at Marshall's or even your nearest Walmart.
                                                                                        
  2. Weather Proof them.  

Whether you want to wear your boots in the rain or the snow or just to help you look cute in the chilly weather this winter, protecting them is the only way they will last because the elements can really start to take a toll on them after a few times out in the rain or snow. After doing some research on the top boot protecting products I found that Otter Wax had some really good reviews and is affordable! Otter Wax is made with natural ingredients to ensure that all types of leather stay nourished, soft and waterproof.

Let me know if you try Otter Wax and how it worked on your boots!

STATEMENT SLEEVES

  It almost has felt like we haven't even had fall this year on the East Coast due to October being so warm and now the beginning of November feeling like its mid January. Although the leaves on the trees do scream fall weather so I thought it would be the perfect way to capture this fall statement sleeve blouse I am obsessing over. I mean who doesn't love a shirt with a eye catching sleeve, whether they are boldly embellished or playfully pleated they effortlessly add just what you need to a outfit.

 This top is by a newer brand called Guest Editor, which is a contemporary clothing brand with a modern feminine twist, with perfect quality pieces at a more affordable price. You can find this brand at places like Nordstrom, Anthropologie and in the contemporary section of Marshall's.

The jeans I am wearing are from [BLANKNYC] (Similar style here). My favorite part about these jeans is the lace up detail from the bottom of the jeans to the calf. Black jeans are a style that basically matches with everything and can be dressed up more than regular blue jeans. They also pair perfectly with these Patent Leather ASOS Booties!!

FLORALS? FOR FALL? GROUNDBREAKING.

According to The Devil Wears Prada's, Miranda Priestly, florals for spring are groundbreaking but why not be different and sport florals this fall?

Kimono's are a style that I love because they can turn any plain standard outfit into a unique look that no one else is sporting. I got this one from Zara believe it or not! And love how it has three different patterns on it, so every way you turn you are getting a different vibe instead of looking at just one specific print. The best part is the velvet trim on the sleeves and outlining the whole garment as well as the tie.

I paired the kimono with a pure white tank top and a straight legged pair of Levi's (similar style in lighter wash) that I cuffed that the bottom to enhance the look of my Jeffery Campbell black suede heels (similar style with thicker heel). I accessorized the outfit with my Topshop sunnies featured in previous posts along with my Tory Burch black with gold detail crossbody.

B&W


  I said it before and I'll say it again, Moto jackets are EVERYTHING!! Especially this interchangeable vest and jacket Rebecca Minkoff one!  

  These show stopping Quay Cafe Racer sunnies in matte black are hard to miss and perfect to hide a hangover. I recently have been trying to switch some of my wardrobe to a more cozy vibe, these Hudson Avery Sweats are one of the many cozy styles I will be adding to my lineup this winter. Who doesn't want to look fashionable and be comfortable at the same time? It's the best of both worlds.

  The ultimate cozy shoes are these to die for Duckie Confetti Fox slides, Duckie is a clothing designer based in NYC specializing in custom dresses, jerseys and jackets as well as slides, hats and more. Duckie's work, specifically these black slides have been seen on the Kardashian's and some of his other amazing pieces seen on Beyoncè, French Montana, Amber Rose, Meek Mill and more.

FALL VIBES

   
If you haven't got the hint yet, half my wardrobe consists of black clothing lol. Black goes with everything and makes you look better when wearing it!

 For this look I am wearing a Juicy Couture fitted black blazer that I have had for awhile now so it was difficult to find it online, the only one I found is provided in the link! The jeans I am wearing are a wardrobe staple you must have! I literally have three different style ripped black skinny's from Paige denim and I swear they are well worth the investment. The LV toiletry pouch I am holding, I actually use for my on the go makeup bag but have recently been thinking of using it as a clutch as well. My earrings are the 18k white gold Gucci logo that were a gift from my dad for high school graduation, I basically wear them everyday lol i'm obsessed.

I hope this outfit gives you some ideas for fall outfits! One of my goals this fall/winter is to find different styled blazers to dress up my outfits, so you will definitely be seeing more of them in upcoming posts! I suggest getting yourself one as well! One of the best things about blazers is that they can be so versatile in making your office look a everyday chic look as well.
