April Song

      Springtiming means floral prints, pinks, purples, and bold pattern combos walking the streets. This sea foam floral blouse is a vintage souvenir from my recent trip to New Mexico along with my two-tiered gold peso necklace, both salvaged from a thrift shop in Santa Fe. Paired with purple tight socks and a navy corduroy zip up mini skirt. Never leaving my closet without my staple Gap jean jacket, I am excited to spring into fashion. 

Golden Shadows

In this ensemble earth tones set the scene, these rich crimson opaque tights compliment my tweed skirt and zig-zagging shirt. This top appears similar to a Missioni pattern and catches the eye of color and pattern enthusiasts alike. I am head over heals, or shall we say head over platforms, in love with this gold glittery shoes! They add an element of surprise to this outfit and function not only as a shoe but as a whimsical accessory as well.

To Know the Sky

 I begin with a much owed ode to fall for its rich earth tones inspiring my wardrobes color palette. This season, one cannot go wrong with the combination of fall colors, especially browns, mustard, navy, and forrest. This vintage suede fringe forrest jacket provides a surprising burst of color and compliments these opaque mustard tights. The faded paisley print on this navy and white skirt is girly and fresh. And as always I add the finishing touches of gold jewelry to my fall ensembles.    

Speak Louder Than Words

As falls chilly winds begin to dictate one's fashion forecast, let the layering begin! Here I've paired a long sleeved white chiffon blouse with a vintage navy and white polka-dot vintage sweater vest. I'm especially in love with the gold buttons on the vests shoulder, adding sailor flare to the outfit. I've mixed in this black and white tight gingham print mini-skirt for a subtle dose of print mixing. My gold hoops and antique gold leaf necklace adding undeniable elegance to the ensemble, making for the perfect finishing touches.

Patterns & Equations

Powerful patterns speak louder than words for this vintage ensemble. This navy and white geometric patterned dress is Banana Republic and salvaged at St. Vincent DePaul. It's totally mod and contrasts elegantly with this silk paisley green and blue scarf. My red over-the-knee socks were inspired by the hints of maroon in the silk scarf. Most importantly it wouldn't be fall without my corduroy chocolate brown jacket and Tommy Hilfiger clogs bringing rich earth tones to the scene. 

Past to Present

As trends transition from summer to early fall, the combination of bright colors remains a vital part of one's style agenda. Here I'm wearing red poodle socks with a knee length suede purple skirt, oh boy is the reinvention of the knee length skirt is back in vogue! This exciting color palette is contrasted by my classic denim jacket (that I could never survive without) and this army inspired camo green vest. The leopard print tank underneath is just subtle enough to prompt a few meow's as I strut around campus in these Aldo black leather ankle boots. 

Prep School Dropout

Menswear on women never speaks in whispers, but in loud seductive roars! This vintage navy blazer and Brooks Brothers peach silk blouse make the perfect preppy duo along with this Tommy Hilfiger paisley skirt, following this falls trending conservative collars and influences of menswear. Don't forget the burst of bright orange on my fingernails, thanks to OPI's new Halloween collection "He's my boo" is sure to make you take another look.
