BLUE

excuse me for wearing the heck out of the Forever 21 plaid shirt but it has done wonders for my wardrobe. I first wore it tied at the waist and it came in handy that evening when it was a little cold in a Moroccan restaurant I frequent in Harlem. This time though I went bananas and paired it with a blue skirt from ASOS that's one of my favorites!

so apparently summer is over in New York City. its been very mild and im am by no means complaining. I love this type of weather. I'm already thinking about Fall and what summer items I will put away and what summer items will work right up until Winter. For sure this plaid top will be a year round staple. So much so that I plan to take it with me to Paris next month.

I like the simplicity of this look. I also like to wear my Alexander Wang Fabiana's anytime I get the chance. They actually have them almost half off at Nordstroms Rack too! Run don't walk before they sell out.

what men want you to wear

I read somewhere that if a guy had to see you in clothes (they prefer you naked) that they'd just want to see you in jeans and a plain tee-shirt. Well...its simple enough lol. I wore this outfit last week but seriously its getting entirely too hot for jeans, even comfy boyfriend jeans! At the moment its a scorching 90 something and I prefer to be in my apartment...the way men really prefer women. lol. That's one thing I truly miss about Southern living...the central air conditioning. Lord knows this window unit is just about useless right now. Ahh to be a New Yorker. It definitely has its ups...and its downs.

I do love these jeans that I scorned at ASOS. They have a great selection of boyfriend jeans in all washes and cuts. I like the army print design on the pockets of these jeans though. That's really what caught my eye. Anywho, looks like the pool in my neighborhood was finally filled so you know what that means....plenty of bathing suit shopping in the next few weeks. I still have this great Marc Jacobs swimsuit from my trip to Barcelona last year...but im itching for a new one like this one or this one.
