Make it Express..no really it's EXPRESS

It's all about Express! After digging deep into my closet I re-discovered a long forgotten button down shirt. This Paisley print regular fit button down shirt by Express created this whole ensemble. Paired with a v-neck merino wool sweater and my all time fave moto-jacket, w(cream with gray pinstripe Producer pants),I wanted to look 'put together' but with an edge!!

Simply Green

Earth-tone greens can be a great inspiring color even in drab winter. I've had these pieces in the closet for so long, and I figured to test drive them. The fedora hat was actually a gift from an old manager. It's from Target! surprising? The oversized sunglasses I got from an NYC sidewalk vendor. The olive green button down is by Old Navy paired up with a cable knit button down cardigan by H&M. Love my stretch distressed slim fit jeans by Kenneth Cole. The boots you've seen before from my previous blog, it has a great stitch detailing in the front- by ALDO shoes. The moto riding gloves are from Hot Topic, the double tusk chain is from Forever21, and the watch by Marc Ecko. For a future blog post I'm going to play with bold color blocking, until then keep an eye out!

Brown and Black Combo- YES it can be DONE!!

People nowadays get apprehensive with pairing together black and brown, but it's not as uncommon as people may assume. So it started with me finding a pair of jeans lost in the vortex I call 'MY CLOSET'. These Levi's 501 straight leg had a distinct brown stitching on them which definitely went great with these ALDO boots (gotta love the detail stitching on these). I love a great comfy v-neck tee (VURT) paired up with a cropped Calvin Klein jacket..The multi-ring necklace is by H&M, and the watch is by Ecko.

Jackets?? No! Knit Wool Sweaters, warm and cozy..

Wool Knit Sweaters are this season's hottest alternative to a bulky heavy winter jacket. Warm, soft, cozy, and most of all lightweight and stylish a great wool sweater can definitely keep away winter's cold bite. Last year I lucked out on this great wool zip sweater from the GAP, but was never able to wear it, so I took advantage of the early season freeze to break out my cozy sweater. I paired it with a cream basic v-neck tee (H&M) and accessorized with a wool scarf and glove set both complementing the sweater (by H&M). Completing my look are a great pair of distressed jeans from Express and chocolate boots by Aldo Shoes, and last but never the least are my ever present DIESEL sunglasses (minus the SUN), deep tortoise color and oversized, just the way I like them!

Saturday Night Lights..Chocolate and Faux Fur keeps the Cold Away!!

Saturday Night Lights called and I answered..Fashionably of course! Beginning with an early afternoon birthday party for triplets, then to a rock band performance by Tasting Grace, to a Lucha Vavoom sex and wrestling show, and ending with an after-party @ Watermark Club/Lounge..
I'm all about keeping that mystery, so I never go without my sunglasses night or day, these oversized aviator tortoise shell lenses are from Aldo, as well as these cowboy inspired chocolate brown boots-super pointy just the way I like it. I do love a comfortable t-shirt, so I went and scooped up this brown light cotton shirt with a mini square pocket from the Gap. The jacket is a double breasted chocolate wool pea-coat by Perry Ellis, and the denim jeans are 80's inspired bleached distressed look from Zara, and with a 1% lycra elastic in the fabric, it's uber comfortable!! The faux fur stole adn double chain ring neclace are both from H&M. I never disappoint!!

October 20, 2010..In Remembrance..So PURPLE

There isn't much to say except that it is a shame in all humanity that we have to remember those who have taken their lives because society can't get past its own ignorance when it comes to people's sexual preferences.. Purple is in remembrance of those who took their lives because other's couldn't respect something as simple as being a HUMAN being!!
