Tanya Taylor Crop Top and Rag & Bone Jeans
So I’ve made a big move. I’m now living in Florida but while still in New York I got together with Mariya for some shots. The weather was warm (hence the Tanya Taylor crop top that I found on sale). It’s hot in Florida so I can wear this outfit almost all year!
These Rag & Bone Simone Denim Pants have been put to great use ever since I got them. They’re light and cute. I just love a dark wash. I paired them with my vintage blue suede Giuseppe Zanotti pumps (similar Manolo Blahnik BB pumps here) and my vintage Marc Jacobs blue handbag. Check out the rest of the photos below!

Cornrows in the Light
Here’s a painting of mine featuring cornrows in the light. Black beauty and hair are so special and unique. It’s part of our culture that dates back several ages. We are all really descendants of Kings and Queens. Hope you’re having a great day!

Sequins on the Runway for NYFW F/W 17
So I just love sequins. As a big Ashish fan, I’d find any excuse to wear sequins and would wear it for just about anything. It’s a great way to brighten up an otherwise dull winter wardrobe and that’s just what designers had in mind for New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2017. Milly, Jeremy Scott, Alexander Wang and more all featured a sequined item or two in their fall/winter collections. I just love these pieces.

Color in the Winter: Blue Topshop Coat
Well it’s snowing today after a 50 degree temperature yesterday! What a mess this weather is. To beat the winter blues, I like to use a pop of color. Last year, I picked up this blue Topshop coat from Nordstrom (similar blue Harris Wharf London coat here) to give me that boost among the hum drum of black and grey in my closet. It’s not the warmest coat ever but it works. I also wore vintage silver metallic Lanvin sneakers, Zara jeans (similar here) and an Alexander Wang handbag (similar black one here). Check out a few other coats to brighten up your winter wardrobe.
