POLISHED ONYX

December 15, 2022

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.

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.

The White Button Down; Women

May 19, 2013

If you haven't noticed, I am obsessed with white button down shirts! I personally think it's very hard to go wrong with a white button down, you can almost wear them with everything! You can dress them down and dress them up!

Look Number 1:

This is great look for spring and a "hang out" day! It is very effortless yet very stylish. If you want to incorporate a bit more POP to the outfit, you can add a statement necklace. Also, a pink lipstick would go really good with this look!

Look Number 2:

This look is good for spring as well, but to me it screams out fall! I also realized this is more of a business woman look. The orange skirt adds a POP to the outfit, which is why I chose dark accessories. Don't feel as if you wont make a statement, the orange skirt is already a statement, but the red lipstick finishes it off!

What do you ladies think?
