the shoppers holiday...

this past weekend i was super casual for a little thrifting excursion.

i hit up my favorite spot Beacon's Closet to pick out a nice Thanksgiving dress.

i wanted something vintage, a dress of course with a bright pop of color. i ended up picking up the perfect dress and for only $12! while out my photog and I grabbed some Pinkberry. my absolute favorite is the original with pomegranate, coconut and a drizzle of honey. while in the west village we stopped and took a few photos. i swear one day i want to live on Perry St.

the darker the lipstick...

im still feeling my way through this dark lipstick phase of mine. once when i wore black nail polish a guy i was dating told me it weirded him out, like im a witch or something. i promptly told him that its a good thing he didn't have to wear it! i love black nail polish and im loving this very dark purple lipstick. it almost looks black. the darker the lipstick....the better. atleast for now. dont get it twisted i still love my very bright red lipstain but this is a close second for the Fall/Winter season.

here returns the pencil skirt. i swear i wear this skirt like twice a week. the perfect mixture of sophistication yet sexxxxxxy *in my beyonce voice*.

i actually wore this outfit on a night out with the girls in Harlem. We went to Red Rooster and then to Cove and then to Social Corner. It was fun but all the same i'd rather be home sometimes snuggled on my leather couch and watching Brown Sugar...my favorite movie. in fact...thats what im doing at this very moment while simultaneously drafting this blog post. i've also quickly burned through the 6 seasons of SATC followed by both movies. i have cabin fever bad.
everyone affected by the hurricane...you are on my mind.
and im doing well so thanks for all the love on twitter, instagram and all.

what do you like to do in your down time?

tis sweater season

its inevitable. the air gets crisp. the wind blows and chills your bones. tis sweater season and i accept it. its like death or taxes...eventually one must wear a sweater if they live in a city such as New York. i hate sweaters. they are itchy and confining just like skinny jeans. you have to calculate the thickness of sweaters to match certain jackets and sometimes the thickness completely eliminates the chances of wearing certain jackets. *head explodes* atleast its still warm enough to just wear a sweater without a jacket...atleast for the next week or so.

Sweater & Boyfriend Jeans & Ring: H&M | Booties & Bag: Zara | Sunnies: Ray Bans

GET THE LOOK

this is one of my favorite bags from Zara. I love the studs and how deep it is. perfect for my DSLR and a light jacket if need be. sometimes things get lost in it though. i almost died when i couldn't find my old faithful Stila Fiery Lipstain one day and discovered it deep in the depths of this bag. i also get a lot of questions about these booties. they are still available here on Zara.com. They are also pretty comfortable as well. H&M also has an array of these sweaters in different colors for $25!

black skinny jeans

something about black skinny jeans just screams "Im A Rockstar!'' to me.

i've have the jeans for some and rarely wear them but today i was feeling like a badass and decided to take them out for a spin. i added my favorite cross print tee from Forever 21 and a top hat from top shop. once again super amped that its cool enough for hats...but me no likey sweaters.

i just went through my winter clothing and donated about 75% of my sweaters because they were so ravaged from the past 2 winters. i will definitely be going top shopping soon or i will freeze to death in winter. lol.

Top: Forever 21 | Jeans: Free People | Jacket: H&M | Booties: Zara | Hat: Top Shop

all black with a pop of red in the booties! these are seriously my favorite boots and im so glad i stepped outside my comfort zone of hardly ever wearing red and buying these boots. i always get questions about this denim jacket. i got it like 3 years ago at H&M. I've had it so long but i've never ever washed it..lol. i find that the stains and the dirt really make it look broken in and vintage. it also fits me perfectly and i think washing it would destroy all the charm of it.

have you ever had something you didn't wash to preserve its essence?
