You know what I enjoy? Fashion. The only thing that stops me from being sickening fly (extremely well dressed for the lay people), is money. I do LOVE to thrift and I purchase retail items when they're affordable. I consider my style eclectic. I don't like regular rules and I damn sure don't like fashion rules! So...I wear what I like. I wear what feels good. That gets me a lot of sideways looks at my son's daycare. Don't get me started on the "you're not following the rules" stares I get while traipsing down the halls of corporate America!
You'll also notice that one item in each photo is thrifted. I'm telling you, thrifting is real! It saves my fashion life!

I see my style as an ever evolving extension of me an as artist. I'm an artist and I'm sensitive about my shit! (Shout out to E. Badu for that quote)
Here are some of my ensembles from the month of October. You'll notice a common thread through out all these photos - combat boots and my zebra purse that I use for major family outings. That purse can carry two foot longs, 3 waters, a make-up bag, hand sanitizer, a change of clothes and a DSLR camera! The combat boots are so comfortable and I love them!

ReplyDeleteLove that outfit when you went to the Long Beach marina. Those stripes are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI want to try combat boots but I'm not sure if I know how to style them. You look cute in your look. I noticed that your striped dress was from WalMart. I was in there the other day and noticed that they had some CUTE corduroy/denim pants in all these pretty colors for Fall. I was with the kids and I didn't feel like trying them on but they were cute. People sleep on WalMart...
ReplyDeleteHanz you look super cute.
ReplyDeleteThank you Marie! I was really feeling that dress, I felt myself that day!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ms. Kurves! That makes me feel more confident. I truly appreciate you!
