COATED skinnies x OMBRE jacket

Dear Diary,

I go through moods when it comes to clothing, and lately, I have been very interested in minimal pieces with standout details or outer layers.  Take this white top for instance, simple cut but the asymmetric bottom gives it a little excitement. With the pairing of the skinny pants and ombre denim sleeve jacket from Dries Van Noten.

FSHN BNKR FT. C/MEO COLLECTIVE CULLOTES

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

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.

FASHION FOR BREAKFAST: KDIA JEWELRY

Dear Diary,

Fashion for Breakfast is back, and this time’s guest of honor was none other than the beautiful and talented lady behind KDIA Jewelry, Kristen Noel Crawley. It was very inspiring listening to her speak about coming from a small town in Chicago to having her own brand of fine jewelry. She also mentioned how she wanted to make  pieces that would stay with you forever. I had the liberty of meeting with Kristen after the breakfast, and she is such a ball of energy and simply the sweetest! Can we just talk about how amazing she looks with that baby bump? Jeez!! To learn more about or if you are interested in shopping her pieces. Click here for further details.

KANYE WEST x STEVE MCQUEEN Pop-Up Installation at LACMA

Dear Diary,

It was pretty awesome being at the LACMA for Kanye West and Oscar-winning director Steve McQueen’s short film.  The duration of the film was 9 minutes, and shot in one take at a historic dockyard outside London. Despite my  inability to share  some images from the installation with you all, per Mr. West’s strict regulations of keeping the video exclusive to the museum, I want to compensate by leaving you with a quote from the director elaborating on the concept of the film ; “The video for Kanye West ‘s song All Day/I Feel Like That plays upon the relationship between the camera and the subject. As in a meeting between the bull and the matador, it remains unclear who chases whom within the arena. The roles of pursuer and pursued are at times inverted. Shot in a single 9 minute take with natural lighting and minimal context, McQueen accentuates the immediacy and intensity of the performer up close. Every movement of West is seen; every breath felt. It becomes apparent how the song itself fuels West’s performance, from the tornado in “All Day” to the vulnerability of I Feel Like That”

Casual Get-Up

Dear Diary,

We had a nice one in the Los Angeles area yesterday. The weather was sunny with a breeze, which made it easy for me to throw on this v neck sweater. My job consumes my life throughout the week, and that is why I use my free time to catch up on all errands. Comfort is very important to me when I am on-the-go, so I paired my sweater with a high waist denim pant and loafers. I know, I know, they are the same pants from my last post. I couldn’t help it, they are easy to run around in. To add some character, I went with a mint clutch and oversize clear frames. Let’s not forget the red lip for drama.
