Black Dahlia

I will admit, that I was very intimidated to wear  leather shorts…actually leather anything! I always felt like if I didn’t wear them correctly I was going to look like a beat up biker babe or some crazy dominatrix person. The only kind of leather I would attempt to wear was a leather jacket or vest until my friend Angela convinced me to go out and buy some faux leather shorts.

 That said, I practically lived in these leather shorts this summer and will continue to over use them this fall and winter.  Not only are they trendy, they can be dressed up or down which is extremely important for a person like me who is always on the go.

Since then, I’ve been paring these shorts with everything! Dressed up with heels and blazer and dressed down with tee shirts and flats. In my advice, I suggest you keep it minimal with one pop of color  in your top or a bold necklace or even bold lips. I kept this outfit simple with nude heels and a bold lip.

I’ve recently started seeing more and more bloggers rock graphic tees and it inspired me to try it out. I remember when I was in high school I would wear band tee shirts and graphic tees dressed up and I would get weird looks by all the “cool kids“. This really exited me because I got to kick it old school!

 I suggest getting a little creative when wearing a graphic tee. Dress it up with some jeans and throw a statement necklace on for a fashion-forward look. I would definitely wear heels if your going out at night for a classy look. Other items you can wear are a skirt, a bright blazer, or a vest (like I did). Avoid wearing anything that looks worn out.

Now, lets talk accessories. Above the knuckle rings are my current obsession. I think they add spice to a simple outfit, especially when you stack them. The best part about these rings is you can now purchase them online at H&M since this week they announced they are now open for online business. I provided the link above!!!!! I hope you all enjoyed my take on how to wear a graphic tee and stay tuned for more!

Classic Baroque

Teal Suede Heels: Zara (Similar Here)

Baroque fashion is a popular trend that can be traced back to the 16th century. The European style can easily be dressed up or down. In my opinion, the way to wear baroque is by keeping your look simple, balanced, and modern.

I bought this dress from H&M a while ago but couldn’t decide how I wanted to wear it. I felt it was a tricky statement piece to wear and I knew I wanted to look sophisticated. I decided to keep it feminine by pairing these Zara teal heels as my pop of color. 

So as you all may know by now, Zara had their annual sale and I bought these beautiful suede heels for a great price. These are definitely a great color to add to any black and white outfit or any outfit you really want to add some color to. I’m going to have fun styling these babies this summer.

Thank you for stopping by!

  I decided to pair this beautiful floral print blazer with a simple black and white ensemble. I have been contemplating on this bustier trend with a skirt because of my body type but I decided to just go with it. When I put outfits together, I experiment with prints and trends to match my body type.

  
I fell in love with these heels from Lola Shoetique because they are identical to the heels from Zara but at half the price. I decided keep it simple and accessorize a gold necklace to compliment the gold detail on the heel.

Did anyone notice my tattoos? There are always stories behind tattoos and I will share mine with you. Jesal and I have matching tattoos on our shoulder of our birthdays. The ink was not to prove anything to anyone, just to show each other our love for one another. I also have a green elephant on my right wrist to represent my grandmother who has already passed away.  She believed elephants bring good luck and she used to collect them and decorated her home with them. It is a beautiful memory I will always hold in my heart. 

Thank you for letting me share that with you all and I hope that you all liked my outfit as much as I did.

Ladies, I love these heels from Lola Shoetique! At first I was eying similar sandals by Jeffrey Campbell but at $125 they were a bit too pricey. These heels are comfortable and trendy at a fraction of the cost

 DON'T get me started on this fabulous dress from H&M, it looks better in person. My favorite part about this dress is that it was only $10! I decided to pair it with this bright red coral jacket for a pop of color and a gold necklace to give it a fierce vibe.

 

I wore this outfit on Saturday to go shopping with Jesal and then decided not to change my outfit for drinks with our beautiful friend, who is also a blogger, Terry. I like creating outfits that can transition from day to night because we get busy and its super convenient.

We hope you enjoyed this post!
