NY Street Style

All I'm gonna say is: I will forever love street style and have been ever since I discovered Streetpeeper back in 2007 and The Sartorialist.

Target

I have never underestimated Target for clothes, shoes, and makeup. While doing some running around shopping with my dad and sister today, I saw this random maxidress hanging over the rack of clothes that were already tried on. I put it on over my clothes, despite the fact that it was nowhere near my size (a large, and I wear a xs/small). I loved how it draped and ahhhh I just really loved the whole fit of the dress. Unfortunately, I didn't buy it because it was just too large and I would hate to have to walk around pulling it up all the time.

YEAR 6

HELLO! Being that this is my first post of 2012, I have just realized that this is my sixth year blogging! YAY ME! Blogging and the whole blogosphere has always been a love of mine before it was ever this major thing that it is in pop culture now. I've taken notice that some of my style has evolved from the five years I've been following style blogs and blogging. For the past few months, people have been asking me "Do you have a Tumblr?" and my answer is always a "NO. Tumblr reminds me of a BloggingFacebook where people are simply just resharing pictures from others." YES, I do reshare pictures on my blog, but the photos I share are composed into a post where I'm actually talking about why that picture is there. Haha, do not get me wrong, I do occasionally go on Tumblr pages (primarily natural hair and NYC ones), but other than that, it's just not for me. I enjoy my blog on blogspot because I feel like it's my own actual little website instead if like some social networks (I do enjoy facebook and twitter), plus Blogger.com will pretty much always be relevant, rather than Tumblr which will probably be out of "style" by the end of the year. ANYWAYS, I kind of got off topic but I'm just really excited but to see what new things the world of style blogging will bring me. :)

READY FOR FALL.

May I just state how anxious I am for the fall months. I have to say that fall might be my new favorite season. This reasoning could be because of this scorching hot summer. I literally felt like I was gonna melt this summer and still do. I have noticed that my style has evolved and definitely matured as I have gotten older. And if you've been following my blog now for almost the last 5 years, you will notice that my colorful, quirky outfits have transformed to something more simplistic yet still my own signature style. With that being said, I'm ready for

• classic and structured trench coats




• booties




• chunky circle scarfs




• heavy blazers




• knit thigh-highs




• and smoky eye make-up!!!

AND....









'Tis all for now!

Absence.

A few words from me:

I am so sorry from my absence, having not posted since early June. I was in New York City for the end of June and all through July. It was an AMAZINGGGG trip and I was so sad for my departure. I will try to blog more lately and I will definitely try to do more outfit posts!
