Grey Day


Kimono- H&M
Shoes Archie Oxfords from Deandri

Just a giving a quick update on a look I wore sometime during the week after a long day of classes. The weather was very misty and cloudy at 11:00 am it looked like 5 am, which I thought was very strange....New York weather is so unpredictable and weird. Anyways, I wore the quickest look that I could pull together since I had to wake up early for my classes and the best thing to drag out of my closet during those crunch times is a classic grayscale look. To add a little more light layering to the mix, I wore my fringe kimono that I'm so in love with from H&M and as expected, I could help but play and shimmy with the tasseled fringe all day hahaha. I'm actually getting into wearing more of my other jewelry a lot more lately because I got so caught up in consistently wearing my tattoo choker and any choker as a matter of fact. I love all my chokers and would wear them all the days of my life but as a result of that I've neglected all my other really great jewelry pieces. So, the necklace Im wearing in this post is actually from this vintage jewelry store I use to go to all the time back home in Jamaica where I'd splurge into buying unique jewelry pieces. I just love the way this particular necklae is constructed and the rusted silver makes it vintage perfection!

Bohemian Rhapsody


BlueVelvet Crop Top- American Apparel
Fringe Kimono- Necessary Clothing

I'm pretty much the type of person who is overly obsessed with anything fringe, especially on kimono...it's literally my weakness and sometimes I have to try hard to talk myself out of going crazy and buying everything fringe. This kimono that I'm wearing has to be my best one to date! I really love that it has aztec-like print all over it, with black fringe trim detailing along the hem line. I decided to pair this lovely kimono with a bright blue velvet top that is one of my recent purchases at American Apparel. I've recently been head over heels for velvet tops and skirts, especially when its a very simple top/skirt. I added the blue as a pop of color and with the velvet texture it makes the look a whole lot more interesting, giving depth to the ensemble. For my accessories, I wanted to add  hints of gold accents since this whole look could have quickly turning into an "all black" combination. For those of you who have been asking... I didn't cut my locks, it's just all pinned up in the back with the front looking a bit longer. I think it's important for me to kind of change up the styles I do with my hair because sometimes I get really tired of it. Anyways, I'm off to a busy day of work and school so I hope you enjoy this look and feel free to leave a comment down below.
