Shake a tail feather...

 Spring....where art thou?
Skirt: ASOS | Top: H&M | Shoes: Charlotte Olympia
 
Still loving this feather skirt from ASOS. I think a great denim button up is a must have an any wardrobe. It works well with classic pieces as well as dressed down outfits and all denim looks. See these shoes and a few of my other favorites in THIS VIDEO of my shoe collection!

My Love For Shoes

i realized that i have a lot...and i mean a lot of shoes. I love them too. if i ever came home and discovered that i was burglarized...i would check my closet first....because flat screen tv's come and go
but some shoes only are sold for a season!
check out this video i made featuring some of my favorites!

Song: Calvin Harris "Feel so Close"

classics never die

It's true...the basics in fashion never really die. The pencil skirt is still a must have staple in every womans wardrobe. It evokes instant classic sex appeal masked with authority given the length. A little twist on this is ofcourse the material. A leather pencil skirt gives it a little more oomph! Got this lovely one at ZARA.

















Outfit
Sweater: Zara
Skirt: Zara
Shoes: Charlotte Olympia see them worn differentely HERE and HERE
Necklace: Thrifted at Brooklyn Flea Market
Ring: Urban Outfitters

I really love the mixture of textures here especially the plush sweater against the leather and the suede shoes. I think mixing fabrics adds a lot more depth to the outfit and is more pleasing to the eye. Check out some of my other Zara pieces here and worn here and here.

all DRESSED up and nowhere to go

i got this really cool sweater dress at the Blogger Closet Raid this summer.
I really love how heavy it is and the weird fur-like sleeves.







Outfit
Dress: Cheap Monday
Necklace: Thrifted...see it and my other jewelry in my Jewelry Haul YouTube Video
Lipstick: Sephora Brand
I'm actually quite used to going out on the town by myself. a few weeks ago I went to brunch at one of my favorite spots in Harlem Il Caffe Latte. I always get the same thing: Chai Tea Latte, Ham, Mushroom and Feta Omelet and a croissant with jam on the side.
It's so weird how people stare when you eat alone.
single people like brunch too! lol

Of course now its too cold to wear this now without opaque tights....ahhh how I wish Indian Summer we had just a few weeks ago (insert sad face here). Ohhh BTW American Apparel has the BEST opaque tights for winter and they really last..but I always buy 2 pair to get me through the winter!
what do you like to do alone?
I actually LOVE to SHOP by myself.
 
Check out my SHOP for some new Inventory!
