Top tier lip combo 🤌🏾

#LTKBeauty

I know I talk a lot about the Effortless pants from Aritzia but don’t sleep on the Agency. Tailored to perfection without the tailor. The top is very old BCBG, sorry 🫶🏾

There’s more to handbags than Chanel and Hermes. You can still get a great, trendy, real leather handbag that lasts for a more affordable price. Here are a few that I’m loving right now for under $500

Todays lip combo: fenty on fenty

#LTKBeauty

I will always encourage folks to simplify their wardrobe by coming up with a personal uniform. If your life is hectic and you want to eliminate one more choice in your day, create a go to uniform. This week has drained me such that not even dressing up was going to help me close out the week enthusiastically. So I went for my easy casual Friday uniform with my favorite white tee shirt.

#LTKStyleTip

In matters of casual footwear, one thing I cannot abide is a ballerina flat. I prefer a loafer as they’re just more interesting in my opinion. Here are a few suggestions

It’s almost time!! Let’s start shopping for outerwear from the major categories: puffer, wool, statement, leather. More to come, but this will get you started

I feel like brown girls are always perfecting our ideal nude-pink-brown lip combo. This glossy collection is working for me right now

#LTKBeauty

I got a few inquiries about this lip combo when I posted this over on insta. I use a few different things to get my ideal rosy glossy brown nude. The Fenty liner goes on really well but I find the pencil wears down quickly so I used classic MAC chestnut as a backup 🫶🏾

A good longline blazer will save your life in an office during transitional weather

I know it’s not quite Fall but the boots are out honey! I saw this color combo on Pinterest while looking for inspo and decided I’d anchor the spring colors with a black belt and black boots. The sweater is from Scanlan Theodore from a few seasons ago and the skirt is Aritzia also from a few seasons ago. The belt is very old BCBG but I tagged a similar style for you to add to your collection

Here’s a little shopping guide for boot styles for the upcoming cold months: casual, bootie, over the knee, calf, and statement.

Last minute outfit for the Sergio Hudson show which was amazing!

Really into this lip combo for the upcoming season! I lined my lips with MAC’a Nightmoth liner, then filled with Violette FR’s Petal Bouche Matte lipstick in Cerise Désir then blended.

I had the pleasure of assisting my fellow creator friend yesterday on her shoot. I wanted to be comfortable while acting as stylist and creative director and trying not to annoy the photographer. I opted for a cozy sweatsuit from Target and my favorite new sneakers (which are also on sale). I’ve linked this sweatsuit and similar ones in this post 🫶🏾

I know it’s only the first day of September but I’m getting my cozy casual wear ready for cool weather (while it’s on sale).

One of my favorite date night looks

These breezy mornings have me feeling very Fall academic. I’ll be putting together a style guide of essentials for those who want to join me in looking collegiate. For now, shop these items!

If you follow me on Insta, you know I’m on a journey to improve my running endurance. The fit, comfort, support, and style of my activewear have been integral to keeping me committed. I always struggled with leggings that wouldn’t stay up during my run. Although I’ve found better options for leggings, nothing beats a jumpsuit. Everything stays in place so I don’t have to worry about slippage on my tummy, and stopping to adjust when my focus should be on my breathing. I linked a bunch of similar jumpsuits here. Also, these sneakers have helped me with my endurance, so I’m considering getting another couple pairs

It’s feeling very early Fall this week so I’m layering my summer dresses for these windy mornings and evenings

#LTKStyleTip

One of my favorite casual pieces is a knit polo dress. Especially for late summer

End of summer office look

#LTKSaleAlert

There are few things I love more than a good white shirt. I can’t get enough of them. I need every fabric, style, neckline and fit. My current favorite white t shirt is from Uniqlo. It’s made of supima cotton so it’s stronger and sturdier, and you can legit feel the difference. These are my go to tees on casual days at the office. I sometimes opt for the men’s version in an XS for a more relaxed fit.

My millennial heart is pushing me to lean in to the resurgence of vests. I look forward to pairing this with a layer in the Fall

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKStyleTip #LTKWorkwear

Picked up this little strapless dress while running through Target for necessities. I paired it with one of my trusty Brooks Brothers button downs to make it more work friendly. These shoes are a few seasons old by Casadei

Squeezed in a local beach trip before it’s too late. I was nervous about my commute attire to Long Beach then remembered this set I bought at the top of the season. So clutch!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKSaleAlert

I’m really enjoying that looser fits of jeans are easier to find now. I remember Rachel Zoe being the only girl rocking boot cuts for a while but we are so back!

This denim dress by Alice and Olivia is sold out, so I linked some similar styles that are on sale now. Perfect for a day time function when you want to be casual but dressy

I wore this BCBG skirt to my 25th birthday party a millennia ago during my Blac Chyna phase (hair, not profession). So I cannot begin to tell you where you could find such a thing. However, this is a solid color combo you can replicate with some pieces I’ve linked 🫶🏾

#LTKStyleTip #LTKSaleAlert #LTKWorkwear

Whenever it rains in New York, I wear a dress or skirt. I commute entirely too much to walk around with wet stained pants all day. This is a vintage skirt from my mom that I paired with one of my favorite Brooks Brothers button downs

#LTKBacktoSchool #LTKSaleAlert #LTKWorkwear

When I style people, I ask them what part of their body they love the most/want to highlight as opposed to what they want to camouflage. If you’re highlighting what you love instead of hiding what you should be embracing, you carry yourself more confidently. Confidence is THEE top tier accessory. I love my legs and my clavicles so I popped out both to bring in my new year.

This crochet top is custom made but the skirt and heels are tagged!

First birthday look rewearing the skirt from my vacation in the city. I tagged some similar/affordable options
