Diesel Black Gold SS16

After collaborating with the lovely ladies of Diesel Black Gold for my beachy denim shoot, I was thrilled to be able to experience the new collection in person at their Spring/Summer 2016 presentation. Located in an amazingly raw and deconstructed building in the heart of the Financial District, it set the perfect backdrop for a runway full of leather, patchwork, and badass vibes. The collection was said to be inspired by a woman wearing a man’s shirt as a dress… sign me up! Tomboy vibes with an edge of sex appeal. Deep side parts, slicked hair, smokey eyes, and strong walks, the models were the cherry on top of that rocker chic sundae. I included some shots of my look before the show, inside the venue, and a link below to a great video compilation of the catwalk. Enjoy!

NYFW Back In Action

Sorry for the hiatus! Needless to say NYFW took over everything and I've been sleeping/trying to recover the tornado that went thru my apartment ever since! Ha! Below are a few of my looks from NYFW. I had a blast really getting creative with these and working with some great brands and showrooms to complete looks that were showstoppers! Links below each shot to shop the look :) PS-- Don't forget to follow me on Instagram for the latest updates!

There's something so simple but amazingly chic about pairing black and denim. Maybe because they were some the first classics for your wardrobe, and despite the evolution of fashion, they have stood the test of time. The cuts, patterns, and silhouettes have changed thru the decades but each variation holds true in your closet.

I know you're shocked, but I often find my black and denim to have a bit of a 90s vibe to them. Absolutely fell in love with these vintage embroidered Levi's and vintage black camisole. Small details but overall simplicity lend these pieces to be great no matter what you pair them with. I added a lace up sandal to complete the look. Sexy but sophisticated, shop similar pieces above to get some great black and blue worked into your wardrobe.

My "Go To" Spring Look

[gallery type="rectangular" ids="621,620,618,616,619,617,615,613,614,612,610,611,609,608,607,606"]

J.Crew Sweater (similar) / Vintage Levi Cutoffs (similar) / Zara Heels / Vintage Sunnies (similar)

This truly is my "go to" look for spring. I've been challenging myself to incorporate more color into my everyday. I got this J.Crew sweater last year, and while a similar cream one was calling my name, I decided to branch out with the red. It brings a great to pop to any outfit and looks great with your favorite denim cutoffs, yet another spring essential. A nude sandals goes with almost anything, and I love that this pair has a functional heel height and fun metallic flair. I would advise you click on each link above, because girl, you need these for spring.
