Friction


Fall is here! and the days are starting to get much cooler…I'm currently in the process of packing out all my fall/winter wear yet, I'm so sad the Summer had to end. Featuring this simple go-to look for one of my days when I want to wear something easy.


Knit Sweater- Lumiere from Necessary Clothing
Pants- Zara
Boots- Zara

I absolutely love days like these where I can throw on a nice comfy oversized sweater, black skinnies and a good pair of boots…I live for these very urban/bohemian aesthetics. I think I previously mentioned that I've been having a slight obsession with wearing different shades of grey so, the more this obsession grows, the more I find new ways of styling and working my way around it so that the look doesn't become overly repetitive. For this look I wore a lot of neutral tones so with a slight pop of navy in the boots and green in my jewelry, I was able to come up with a look that was well balanced. 

I'm excited to post a lot of my upcoming Fall looks because I have so many ideas in mind plus a lot of new pieces piled up in my wardrobe thats dying to be worn haha.

Prior Lost Sorrows


If it could be Summer forever, that would make my life so much better. I think the most I'll miss about the Summer is the fact that I could step outside my apartment bare legged in short shorts and not give a care in the world because I won't have to face the cold wind rushing across my skin.


Vintage rings will forever be an obsession of mine, especially silver ones that overtime the under layer of copper begins to show through, giving a very rusty vibe which I love….it gives a little character to the jewelry in my opinion.


Possibly the most comfortable boots I've own in awhile. These was my best purchase of the Summer as I can't take them off my feet and they'll literally become a uniform to my attire for classes.


Ribbed Cropped Top- Necessary Clothing
Short- Forever 21
Chiffon Top- H&M
Boots- Zara
Draped Necklace- Guess
Rings- Vintage

A lot of my post from now will literally be mostly grey combinations, mainly because I've become completely obsessed with wearing and buying any piece of clothing that's grey. That's possible the main reason I've also slowed down in blogging as my person style is changing drastically and for some reason I'm starting to hate everything in my closet. Maybe it's just a phase but either way, I'm going through a bit of a revamping of closet (late spring cleaning). 

For this look I chose to pair a basic ribbed top to be worn with my favourite pair of shorts that I've style several times here on the blog. I wanted to do a subtle mixing of prints, so I wore my airy abstract floral top and styled it as cardigan for a extra layer to give depth to the look. I went a bit heavy on the jewelry since there was such a light aura to the way I paired each piece of clothing. Of course, no look could be complete with a great pair of black boots and my usual messy hair.

Yesterday's Strength


Sweater- Zara
Pants- Zara
Shoes- Scully by Jeffrey Campbell 
Jacket- Forever 21
Jewelry- purchased in Jamaica

I use can't seem to get over my go-to colour palette, black and grey. I'm never usually the person to be caught dead wearing pants often...typically because I prefer wearing dresses and skirts. However, for this Winter, all I want to do is wear pants and call it a day because of how cold it is. I picked up these pair of riding pants from Zara about a day after cam back to New York and I can honestly say that it's one of my most practical and best buy of the new year thus far. It's such a great fit and goes well with pretty much anything I pair it with. For this look, I went with a more edgy look, by pairing simple pieces together to create an outfit great for wearing both day and night time. I added a statement necklace in the mix as an unexpected touch and to also give the overall look a little oomph against the light grey of the knit sweater. I always get the best jewelry back home in Jamaica, the necklace I'm wearing I got about a year or two ago when I was extremely obessessed with statement necklaces....I'm happy I finally decided to start wearing a lot of my necklaces again. Anyways, I'm off to a long day of work and classes...have a great day!
