OMG IM BACK!

Can you believe it?! After months of not posting I finally took some time out to take a few pictures to post! I'm sorry I've been gone for so long; new job, new responsibilities & no time for anything! I'm really going to put in some effort to post more often. Forgive me if I'm a little rusty.

Devil horn beanie - Japan

Sneakers - Nike AirMAX

So I'm omw out to run some errands and even though it was snowing yesterday, it's actually really nice out! I decided to do a layered outfit today that way I can add or remove anything if it gets too hot/cold. 


For my two tops, I chose a graphic tee & a plaid flannel. This lumber jack look is one of my favorites for snowy weather. It just makes me feel comfortable and cozy and like I could go logging or something, haha. For the tee, I chose this StyleMint "no is a full sentence" tee by MaryKate & Ashley Olsen.
 

This tee is made of pima cotton and is so, so soft! It's also thin & heavy so it drapes really well over the body making it a good option for all body types. It's also heat here's which gives it a textured look.
This flannel is a men's shirt from AEO and it's one of my favorite flannels (I have a lot). It's loose in all the right places without looking like it's too big. It's warm but light weight so it doesn't make me too hot. It stays true to color wash after wash & maintains it's softness. 


I am OBSESSED with American Apparels Easy Jean. It is the perfect high waisted pant for every occasion. I wear them to clubs, raves, to the park, the mall, for holidays, literally everywhere. They're so comfortable and flattering and hug in all the places. Seriously if you don't have a pair GO GET ONE NOW! They're a little pricey ($76 or $78 I forget which) but they're well worth it I promise. You can also get them like half off at the outlet. I plan on getting 7 black pairs; one for everyday of the week lol.


For footwear, I wore my neutral with gold flecks Nike Airmaxes. I bought these from a fellow Poshmark user and I'm so happy I did! They go with everything and are so comfortable! I love the gold flecks, they give the otherwise plain sneaker that pop it needs. These will defintely be my go-to sneaker for a lot of occasions. I paired them with my blue tie-dye socks from H&M for a little extra somethin.


I bought this little "cat" earred beanie from a Japanese boutique online and the "cat" ears looked a little more like devil horns so I decided to call it a devil horn beanie instead. Which incidentally suits me just fine ;)


So that's it guys, my first ootd post in FOREVER! Promise not to be away so long again. Happy Sunday ✌️

Blue skies smiling at me :)

Cardigan & top- H&M
Short- American Apparel cutoffs (cut by myself :))
Knee Highs- Urban Outfitters
Boots- Vegan Dr Martens, 1460 boot


The weather has SO perfect these past few days. It's that kind of weather whee you can wear whatever you want an still feel comfortable. For today's look I wanted to add little elements of summer and fall since we're still in transition between those two seasons. I started off with my cutoff shorts from American Apparel. I love these shorts because they're truly high waisted pants; I also love that, since I cut them myself, the length is appropriate for any occasion since you can roll the cuff up or down.


I will only wear crop tops with these shorts! They're the perfect way to accentuate the waist. For today's look I chose this razor back crop tank from H&M. This tank is super comfy & has cut neon yellow accents at the seams. I love that it's super fitted because I don't have to wear a bra with it, haha (braless hippies UNITE!). I threw this grey knit cardigan from H&M over because its a little chilly and to add my first fall element to the look.


For my foot wear of the day, I wanted to wear my new vegan Dr Martens. I love love love these boots because the material they used to make them (synthetic leather) is super soft so breaking them in was a breeze. I also love the candied apple finish they've got going on. I paired these with my black knee highs because 1. like I said, it's chilly, 2. wearing low socks with docs causes rubbing and it hurts and it's just not fun and 3. to add another fall element to my look.


And there you have it. My summer meets fall outfit of the day. What are you wearing?

American Apparel bodysuits are my favorite things ever

Top- Bodysuit from American Apparel
Shorts- cutoff jeans from American Apparel
Shoes- maryjanes from TopShop
Cardigan- Ann Taylor


For today's look I wanted something comfortable, classic, and simple. I started out with my white bodysuit from American Apparel. This piece is so comfortable and is perfect for tucking into high waisted (or regular) bottoms. 


Yesterday I wore jeans and I was sweating like a sinner in church so today I went with a pair of cutoffs I cut myself out of some classic high waisted American Apparel jeans (seriously AA just hire me already so I can afford all your stuff). I love the look of a plain white top with classic blue jean bottoms; so all American. 


I always wear some form of sneaker whether it be Vans, Converse or running shoes; so today I wanted to change it up with my taupe maryjanes from TopShop. These shoes are so cute and girly and also keep up with the classic look. The taupe color allows me to wear them with literally anything and they're also super comfortable. 


To finish off my look, I added my favorite blue cardigan from Ann Taylor. It's really light weight and soft so it's great to wear on days when it's kinda sorta hot and cool at the same time (lol). I love the it has really long sleeves & it hits a little below the tops of my thighs in length.


So there you have it. My outfit of the day for today. What are you wearing?

Is all black still chic?

Top- Bodysuit from American Apparel
Bottom- Hi-rise Jegging from American Eagle Outfitters
Sneakers- Nike Roshe Run 
Button up shirt- AEO
Belt- H&M


It's Friday!! It's rainy & it's gloomy so for today's look I decided to do head to toe black (with a few exceptions). I started with this all black American Apparel body suit. It's super comfortable and flattering. It has a rather low neckline giving it just the right amount of sexy (rawr). 


Since the bodysuit is tight & body hugging, I wanted to wear bottoms that would accentuate my shape, particularly my waist. I chose these high rise jeggings from AEO. The stretchy fabric makes them really comfortable and flattering and the higher rise shows off my smaller waist perfectly. I added my cheetah print belt from H&M to break up the black.


As for my shoes, I wanted to keep the head to toe black going; and I also wanted something comfortable since I'm on my feet all day at work. I went with my new babies! My black on black with mint accent Nike Roshe Run. These shoes are SO comfortable! The have this foam like insole that makes you feel like you're walking on a cloud! They're also super light weight and, of course, super cute. 


Because of the rain, it's a little chilly out. I was going to wear a black sweater but decided my black top, pants, & shoes was enough. So, I chose my chambray button up from AEO as my cover layer. It's cute, comfortable & breaks up the black without taking away from the look.


There you have it. My gloomy rainy Friday, black on black on black outfit of the day. What are you wearing?

It's Friday, it's my day off, & I'm going thrifting!

Knit kimono- Torrid
Tank- Brandy Melville
Bralette- Aerie
Shorts- Cutoffs I made from American Apparel jeans
Boots- Zara
Necklace- Forever21 (I think lol)
Bracelet- Brandy Melville 

****************************************

Today's my day off & that means... Thrifting!!! Although I won't be buying today, just going to sell some stuff. For today's look I wanted something laid back, easy & comfy. I grabbed my signature cutoffs (American Apparel) & loose tank (Brandy Melville) & started from there. I always like to wear bralettes as apposed to regular bras for 2 reasons; they look cute poking out of loose drapey tanks & they're SO comfortable! So, I wore my black lace bralette from Aerie. It's going to be a rainy day so I threw on these black Zara boots because they're light & will keep my feet cool & dry. For accessories I kept it nice & simple with my Indian headdress pendant necklace & my skull black suede bracelet. Using a neon yellow scrunchy for a pop of color. To give the look a boho feel (& to keep me warm in the rain & in the ac) I added my knit kimono from Torrid. And that's my outfit of the day for today! What are you guys wearing?

Memorial Day!

Crop top- Brandy Melville 
Cut offs- American Apparel
Sandals- American Eagle Outiffers

**************************************

Happy Memorial Day! For today's look I wanted to keep it easy & simple, since I'm going to be out of the house most of the day. It's warm today so I paired some American Apparel high waisted jeans that I cut into shorts with a crop tank from Brandy Melville. I threw on this sheer really light weight plaid button down from H&M to give the outfit some balance. Finished the look off with these studded brown leather sandals from AEO. What are you wearing this Memorial Day?
