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.

Style Sunday: The Kymberly

It's been a while since I last did a Style Sunday, huh? I am so sorry ya'll. My blog has been mainly concentrated on me and how I style myself. I've kind of lost sight of what it is that I love doing and that is making others feel confident and beautiful! Also, it's been a bit difficult getting together with some of my friends since we have such different schedules. But, I am back now and I am going to try to make Style Sunday a bit more habitual. 

Now, let's talk about this outfit for a second. This is by far one of my favorite outfits I've styled someone in! When I style someone, I like to take into account that person's personality and personal style. My dear friend Kymberly is a ball of FUN and is a huge flirt, hahaha! I mean I love this outfit, it's just so... Kymberly!

Style Sunday: Suited Up

Spring is finally here and I am so excited! I styled my friend Aisha in a pant suit because they are so perfect for spring, especially if it's a printed suit! 

Happy Spring!

Something About Her

Happy Sunday everyone! I spent this whole weekend with my friend Shannel, we had so much fun as always! I styled Shannel in this yesterday but I didn't have time to post it, like I said in my last post, I've been so busy lately! I really liked the combination of the printed skirt with the printed sweater, and so did she! Do you? 

If you decide to remake this look, a printed skirt with a printed top I would love to see it! Post it on Instagram and hashtag #RogerDeMonserrath ♥

It's 2014!

Happy 2014 everyone! I hope that this new year brings you peace, love and many good things. For this new year I really want to work on my fashion, school, and most importantly myself. I want to continue to be a person who lives in faith. Here is a prayer:

O LORD, thank you for a New Year and a fresh start. Please give me wisdom and strength to serve you with integrity and faithfulness in this coming year. I pray that your work be done in my life as I offer myself, my plans, and my future to you. I pray this through Jesus my intercessor and Lord. Amen.

Shannel's look:

For Shannel's look I was going for a more laid back yet sexy look which is why I paired her boyfriend jeans with the strappy heels. I added the snake skin clutch/bag to the outfit to add some pop and plus, I think the bag goes great with the shoes!

My Look: 

Today I was feeling a bit edgy! I really enjoyed this look, it was fashionable yet comfortable! Since I have been feeling a little sick for the past few days, I layered up! I wore a black t-shirt under my sheer top, a leather moto jacket, and my new coat! I was very warm!

Hello my dear bloggers! It's been a while since I've posted a look where I styled someone. Here it is! 

This past weekend my friend Shannel (as you probably all know, since she has had many appearances on my blog) was over my house. We gossiped, laughed, and even cried at movies, you know, the typical sleepover stuff! Hahaha. It was so much fun, I felt like a little boy again! Anyway, this is such a chic yet comfortable outfit, good for hanging out with friends and running errands (as we did.) I know you're probably thinking "walking all day in heels" but, I didn't hear Shannel complain not even once, which means she was comfortable! Yes ladies, if she says they're comfortable; THEY ARE! The shoes she is wearing are from Fabco and they look just like the Leena SM Metal Heel Pointed Court Shoes from Steve Madden! The Steve Madden Shoes are 99.95$ and the ones that she has on were only 30.00$! MAJOR DISCOUNT!

Always remember: Be Fierce, Confident, and on a budget!
