Curly Hair Meets August Streetstyle


Hey guys! I've been out of town so I haven't been able to post much while traveling. Sorry about that.
These photos are a little old, but I love this outfit so much I couldn't resist sharing! 

If you couldn't already tell from previous posts, I love to mix dressy with sporty. For this look I took these casual sporty pieces and wore it with a pair of black mules for height and to give it a more dressier feel. My favorite thing about this Alexander Wang top is that it can be worn as a crop top with high-waisted denim pants or a skirt, or even as a sports bra.


I get asked what I do to my hair a lot, especially when it's curly. This was a wash and go day for me so I didn't have to do too much, but some days I have to put in more work than others.  Let me know if you want me to share my hair regimen. I know all about #curlyhairproblems and I'd love to help! 












I was looking in a car window trying to fix my hair and these 3 photos were captured. Off guard pics are the best!

Monochromatic Look: Boxy Tee and Culottes

Culottes are back this spring! 
I like to embrace this pant shape in a clean monochromatic look. I went with all black of course, and paired these pleated wide leg trousers with a boxy crop top tee, and wore my favorite lace up heels.

Culottes can be tricky because of its length and silhouette, but this pair hit my leg at the right spot for my height. If you're worried about how you will look in this trend, start with a solid color culotte like black or white because it'll appear more sleek and high fashion. This is the perfect modern outfit that is both comfortable and chic. You can go to work and then straight to dinner with this contemporary ensemble. 



Fun Fact: Spring 1927 culottes had found its place in the wardrobe of active, fashion conscious women. This silhouette has been around long before but it was trending like crazy in the 30s, and it also made a comeback in the 60s.
