See It Through

A whole lot of monochromatic layers for a super cold day.

Sweater- Forever 21

Coat- Zara

Pants- Zara

Beanie- Zara

I like to have fun with my outfits and sometimes in the Winter, it's so easy to blend in with the crowd because this time of the year most people are wearing all black with a down jackets or one of those eskimo coats. Not that I find anything wrong with this but, personally for me I like to see how I can bend that trend and still be able to keep warm.

Here it looks like I'm wearing two layers up top but in reality I have a thousand layers underneath my sweater. The Heattech from Uniqlo has been doing wonders for me and I recommend it to anyone who's trying to feel as comfortable and warm as possible in the Winter. 

For a fun monochromatic look, I paired my plaid coat from Zara with this similar plaid sweater and a scarf for an extra added touch.

I like to wear pants during the Winter months, so I wore these thick ones from Zara that I have to try and stop myself from wearing everyday...can't get enough of it. 

Sunny Winter

Just another day in Brooklyn.

Sweater- Forever 21

Skirt- Zara

Boots- Necessary Clothing

Can I first express how obsessed I am with this tribal inspired sweater! I bought it during the Black Friday sales at Forever 21 and can't stop wearing it. Surprisingly, I found it in the mens section  (I shop both male and female clothes sometimes) and just bought the smallest size that could fit me perfectly...even though its still a little big.

The quality is pretty great and its super thick and cozy even though in this post I layered it with a blouse underneath because New York's weather switches easily from being warm to cold and cold to warm. As you can see, it was a beautiful sunny day and which allowed me to wear my neoprene skirt and stockings . However, for safety of the wind and an additional layer...I wore an oversized coat which is an item I've been wearing a whole lot if you've seen from my Instagram photos. 

I have a lot more looks coming up on the blog and I'm hoping I can do a video diary real soon. Have an awesome day!

Pale Skies

Sweater- Forever 21

Vest- H&M

Shoes- Miista

Just giving a quick post on a look I wore on a snowy day. Strange enough, it was snowing but not very cold so I just wore a chunky sweater and over oversized faux leather vest with some tight skinny pants. Of course I was wearing a scarf but for the purpose of the shoot I decided not to show it because it would cover the delicate beauty of the sweater.

I'm actually surprized that I haven't worn  this vest sooner this season...but it came out at the right time because its so useful when you want to feel warm and comfy but not uncomfortable with a thousand layers. I like to go very minimal in the jewelry area during the winter months, only because I usually have to wear gloves and necklaces seem unnecessary if there's a huge scarf covering it.

Mind Mischief

Black and White Scarf- Made by me

Coat- Nasty Gal

Concho Hat- Forever 21

Scully Platform- Jeffrey Campbell

On a cozy day, I like to layer  strategically that will allow me to go 'pantless' but still keep as warm as possible. Good thing the day I actually wore this look was warm enough for me to just wear stockings to be paired with my oversized sweater dress and a nice heavy wool coat from Nasty Gal. 

To spark a little interest and as an additional texture, I chose to where this pretty cool black and white scarf that I made in class. The scarf is designed like a sort of shawl so it goes over the head and sits on the shoulders, which makes it easy to pull over and pair with any outift. It works more like an interest piece rather than actually keeping you warm but I think of it as a fun accessory piece.

I hope you all had an awesome thanksgiving weekend, I definitely did as I went to Atlanta to visit family and then partake in a little shopping spree but it was all fun and I'm now back in NY, ready to take one the last week of classes.

Everything In Its Right Place

Brooklyn days in a cozy sweater and shorts.

Sweater- H&M

Shorts- Similar

Boots- H&M

Hat- Similar

I had so much fun shooting this look because it's been awhile since I've worn shorts for this Fall season, main reason being that I get cold so easily and putting on pants always seems like a major go-to move for me. I went out around Williamsburg here in Brooklyn sporting this comfy emsemble one weekend and didnt realize how much I love these boots until now. I've literally had this pair for awhile now and couldn't quite decide what to style them with but so many ideas are now starting to float through my head and ways I could wear them for this Fall.

For this look, I chose to pair them with this awesome ribbed sweater (that I was scared of looking like a "Christmas sweater") and light grey pleated shorts for a quick and easy daytime look that you can wear for brunch, shopping or just hanging with friends. 

I hope you like this quick post and be sure to tune in on my blog tomorrow for when I announce the giveaway! Have a great day!!
