Trapped In Squares


High Neck Black Crop Top- American Apparel
Geometric Long Sleeved Blouse- Forever 21
Shorts- Forever 21
Shoes- T.U.K Creepers (Journeys)

I've been wanting to share this look for the longest time here on the blog, but every time I decide to...I can't find it anywhere in my archives. I know its summer and perhaps wearing faux leather isn't ideal for some people but for me, I say as long as your comfortable just go with it. I really love this faux leather metallic light green shorts that I've been wearing a lot with different combinations. There is just something interesting about the color and I love how to pops against the darkness of my top. As I said before on a post earlier, I use to love layering a lot and I've recently started to layering a bit more now but in a totally different way than I use to. I've been pairing a lot of long sleeved sheer tops and leaving it open to show the blouse underneath. I choose to wear a blouse underneath that isn't going to make me burn in heat and the top on wear over it is usually sheer so it eliminates heat especially since it's now  Summer time.

To The Ancient Stories That Were Told


Tribal Inspired Top- Vintage
Sheer Long Sleeved Blouse- Forever 21
Shoes- T.U.K Creepers (Journeys)
Sunglasses- Ebay

This is a look I wore sometime last week after my internship and I was lucky enough to snap a few photos just before the rain came rushing down. It sort of a preppy / school girl look which is what I like so much about it. I remember not knowing what the heck to wear that day and I made eye contact with this tribal top that I got from my mother about a year ago and then because of the rain, I decided to layer it with something that had sleeves but still wouldn't make me hot because the weather was so unpredictable. I love layering pieces mainly because it adds depth to an outfit and forms a more interesting look. I don't know why I had stopped layering because back when I was living in Jamaica, I would layer ALL the time, even when it was 100 degrees. I think I'll start to layer more but not that often as I usually would because I feel like my personal style has been moving into another direction which I really love so I'm gonna try the whole layer look but with a more "Modern Me" approach. Anyways, I have to head out for my internship right now so see you tomorrow. Thanks for visiting.
