Hello from Quarantine!

Well, this is it… My first blog post! I’m so excited to express my love for fashion on my very own platform! To start this new journey, I wanted to share one fun activity I’ve been loving to do in quarantine: playing dress up. I know, it sounds childish, but it’s a good time, trust me! While listening to music, I would go through all of my clothes and put together so many different outfits. Sometimes, I may organize my closet/dresser or make a donation pile to be more productive and get things done! Here are some of my favorite looks:

Alright, so look number one. Up above, I went for more of a casual, street look. You can never go wrong with some Levi’s and Converse. I’ve had my black Converse since 7th grade and they never go out of style. They’re the high-top Chuck Taylor All Stars; one of my best purchases! The Levi’s I’m wearing are the dark wash, 501 Athens, straight-leg jean. I love how they almost have a loose fit at the bottom, but are somewhat tight at the top. Also, the settle rips give it that distressed look, which is always a go-to for me. As for the top, I’m wearing a black, ribbed crop top with a high, round neck from Zara. This is a basic, must-have item that should be in your closet. This top can be styled in many different ways and it worked out perfectly for this urban look. To tie an outfit together, a simple belt can go a long way. With this faux leather belt from Aritzia, I was able to keep the color black as a common theme and draw more attention to the jeans. This is definitely a great look for a shopping day downtown, brunch with friends, and much more during the warm weather seasons!

For look number two, I’m wearing a hip, yet chic, simple outfit. Last year, I found a love for cargo pants! They have been in style for a while, but once I saw this perfect pair, I knew it was meant to be! These lightweight, nude color, cargo joggers are from Zara. They’re high-waisted, but come with a fabric tie to accentuate your waist. The large front, side, and back pockets give the pants so much extra room for chapstick, sunglasses, and other little things! The sneakers are probably my favorite part of this look! I haven’t seen heeled sneakers in a long time, so I’ve decided to bring them back 🙂 These wedged, black, high-top sneakers are from DKNY. They’re about 3.5 inches tall and have shiny detailing at the back of the ankle and toe of the shoe. Lastly, this black, cropped, corset tank top is from Joah Brown. I have recently discovered this brand and it’s, by far, one of my favorites! The material of this top (and all of their products) is extremely soft and a bit stretchy, so it fits your body perfectly. It’s a great piece to dress up and have that flattering, clean look.

Last, but not least, is outfit number three. I’m obsessed with athleisure wear, so I had to make a look with this style. Biker shorts became a huge trend last Summer and to be completely honest, I wasn’t totally on board at first. However, I finally gave it a shot and fell in love with the look! I found this great pair from Terez; they’re mid-rise and 3 inches in length. The black star design adds a pop to the pant, while still being settle. As for the shirt, this light yellow, cropped, crew neck is from Free People. It’s perfect to throw on over a tank top or wear with a jean or leather jacket. At the collar and end of the sleeves, there are a couple of holes (made on purpose) to show that distressed and relaxed style. Also, I love styling jewelry with comfier looks. Keeping a theme of gold-tone hardware, the hoop earrings are from Nordstrom, the dainty ring is from Pandora, and the round sunglasses are from, the one and only, Ray-Ban. These shoes are the classic, triple white, Yeezy 350 sneakers. Another one of the best sneakers! The first time I wore them, it felt like walking on actual clouds! The padding is so soft and comfortable! Yeezy’s are great shoes to do floor workouts or take long walks in and they look amazing with a pair of cropped jeans (straight or skinny)!
