THE NOT SO BASIC BUTTON DOWN

Leave a comment

Dear Diary,

We all have that closet staple which works on almost every ocassion. The button down can be transitioned from corporate wear paired with your suit to a casual look at the park worn with shorts and flats. In my case, I got tired of wearing it the conventional way. I purchased this Margiela button down about 3 years and decided to give it an asymmetric tweak by losing a sleeve and paired it with some white accessories. White is also the perfect color to wear in the summer  because it doesn’t absorb as much heat as dark colors do. How would you tweak your basic button down?

BACK TO BRIGHTS

Leave a comment

Dear Diary,

The all black, dark ,and neutral phase, has come to an end and my blinding brights are back on the scene. A little something something that I threw together in less than 5 minutes. I kid you not, my best looks are when I dress under pressure. I figured i’d get my Andy Warhol turtleneck look going , being that I was paying a visit to the Museum Of Contemporary Art.

KHAKI GREEN x PLUM

Leave a comment

Dear Diary,

I can’t believe it’s already December. I mean how crazy is it that we just have a few weeks until  Christmas? BANANAS. It all went by so fast, but I am certainly looking forward to the holidays and spending time with my family and all my loved ones. In other news, I was serving layers on a platter for these chilly days I have been experiencing in my neck  of the woods. I’ve always loved oxblood. It is certainly a hue that compliments a variety of complexions. I don’t own too many pieces in it, but after shooting this combination with the khaki green long bomber I may just invest in a few more things in oxblood.  I may just do a post showcasing people with different skin tones rocking oxblood, what do you think?

SKIN TONE

6 Comments

Dear Diary,

Another one from the minimal books. I have always wanted to try a monochromatic outfit in the same hue as my skin tone. I guess you can call this my own version of nude (and no, I don’t mean being naked). Boxy and a loose-fit shape is how I chose to wear this mainly because it was comfortable, but I also always remember to sprinkle a little personality dust onto my look like with this asymmetric hemline of my slip dress, metallic sunglasses, and these amazing cork print vans. Comfort does NOT have to be boring.

FSHN BNKR FT. C/MEO COLLECTIVE CULLOTES

Leave a comment

Dear Diary,

Back again with another goody from fashion bunker. Today’s post is featuring the bottom half of my co-ord set… The culottes (see the matching top here). Culottes are a very risky piece of clothing. Depending on your body type, they can either be a hit or a miss. Being that I already have legs that never end, the hem of the pant don’t hit me at an awkward length. I guess I can count that as one of the advantages of being tall.

BNKR ft. THE C/MEO COLLECTIVE CROP

2 Comments

Dear Diary,

I am a lover of all things cropped. Which is why I couldn’t get enough of this voluminous top from Fashion Bunker. I purchased this top as a co-ord  set (here)  for my birthday, and the great thing about co-ords is you don’t just have to wear them as a set all the time. You also have the option of mixing and matching each piece with other articles of clothing.
