Sunny (but a bit chilly) Sunset Park, Brooklyn.

LA Fashion District Find (Scarf), Crazy Western button down (Hand-me down), SM Topsecret black booties

Easy to put together, easy to like or dislike, a bit different, a bit okay. 

this is my part of brooklyn :) I get to know this city more and more everyday ( I love NYC.)

Beautiful day and getting colder as we begin December (ahh rent is due!)

Enjoy:)

Cute as a button. (or an earring).

I finally bought a hot glue gun, much needed to make these simple button (and penny) earrings. 

Short Story- My Papa and Grams ran a wooden toy business and sold them at farmers' markets, for a brief while they sold button earrings attached to their business cards. Quite a few summers ago when I was helping Grams clean the garage we came across an entire bin full of odd-shaped, a variety of colors and sizes, of button earrings. I proudly wore them and went through a lot of pairs (I would lose some or some would break...) and gave a lot as gifts. Buttons were my signature.

Fashion can be about tradition and family. Both influence fashion and both influence our daily lives. I have a chance to continue creating something I loved that my Papa and Grams started; fashion can be a statement, even on your ears. :)

Dark at 5 PM.

Boyfriend's tee, scarf, flat ankle sm boots, (lazy day attire fit for a day off...)

On my way back from the store, threw on my boyfriend's tee (one of the best parts about living with a boyfriend, you gain access to anything that might look  better on you when over sized and accessorized...), and trotted around Sunset Park's wet walking ways after a brief rainfall. I love this time of year, and although the pic doesn't show up as well I love throwing thins together to create one comfy look that satisfies my laid back day's request. 

Happy.

Forever Long Ribbed Tank Dress, Steve Madden Staff "Happy" Tee, H&M striped duster sweater, boyfriend's beanie, Steve Madden "Troopa"

Love our over sized Steve Madden staff tees we're instructed to wear on important days. Seen on days such as black Friday, during shoe week, or other days of importance and frenzy. The challenge is to not travel down the traditional route so familiar (t-shirt and jeans and call it a day). Add glitter, accessories, different bottoms, personal style, bow ties, just stand out.

 The message is simple and clear. The message is what fashion does to mean, how fashion creates me. A challenge, an opportunity, a chance to be different are all parts of my style and all influence my status of happieness.

be happy.

Leopard.Statement Necklace. Curls. New Shoes.

Pink Polka Dots!

I love a good tailored outfit!Add some fun with some polka dots!xo!

Waking up late can sometimes work out.

I woke up ten minutes after I needed to leave my apartment this morning. Living in Brooklyn is not to bad of a commute but involves going over the bridge until you get to the city where whatever train you take either chooses to inch along the streets or avenues or graciously happens to be going express. I feel like I often wake up late and as much as I hate starting my day off badly I know for me it always helps to plan things out, especially my outfits. This outfit here, I didn't try on to make sure it would fit I just had thought about it the night before on the train ride home. Luckily it didn't need much work to put together in my scurrying around trying to get my act together. To me it is easy to pair a great vintage band tee with a fun and colorful print on the bottom. The risk was taken when I chose to add the red buffalo plaid jacket on top, but it seemed to work out, grabbing attention to the shades of red in my paisley adorned skirt. I sure am tired though, and I know for a fact I function better with time enough to eat breakfast. 

Setting my alarm and placing it across the room, forcing me to physically get up to turn the annoying rooster alarm.

Casual Friday?

I love to play with colors and patterns.I love legwear and sweaters. and, stole my co-workers hat, need to get one of my own. So, I did it all. 

Play in your closet, have fun, I sure did.

The sun sailed away.

It wasn't the smartest decision to 

1. forget my tights (wore long skirt with oversized cardigan)

2. forget my rainboots. These shoes did ok, but the shoes received quite a bit of attention from the rain and dirt gathered from walking along the NY streets.

on a sidenote...

3. I love my socks.

embrace the rain!

Outside inspired.

 One of my favorite vintage tee with the birds on it falling apart but I will still wear it, my floral top shirt, and my bright like the sun orange cords. Don't be afraid to mix and match patterns and colors, you may find something works that you thought wouldn't!

Wore my fave loafer/wedges to class today . In my top five of best flea market finds (20$). 

Listen to the birds! Be daring!

Yes, I look like a hotel conceirge but I think it is fashion.

I appreciate a tailored trouser, silk scarf bowtie, classic buttondown, old hat, and dark cherry lipstick all in one!Tailored looks are always a go to for me, ready to join the newsies!

Missoni Madness

I had help in acquiring my Missoni for Target items, due to the overwhelming traffic the designer collaboration brought to the stores and online.
My mom snagged me a skirt from the kids section and my friend in CT found me some zigzag undies and headband set! With some help, I made out pretty good. Here ya go.

Let's focus on fashion.

This is my second blog, the first to allow room for my mind to vent. The other has my writing and my inspirations but I'm ready to put myself out there for this one. This blog will have a lot of pictures, my outfits, and the inspirations I see everyday in the world of fashion I live in, my New York.

I moved to New York about 6 months ago and am inspired everyday. I don't want to lose one day, everyday is a possibility for me to twist my wardrobe around and create something new. I don't always dress for comfort, I don't like to repeat outfits ( I usually am successful), and I like to be different. Fashion is everywhere and is at your fingertips, it is your choice if you want to grab it or not. I hold on tight.
