Happy Friday! I hope your week is running smoothly because the weekend is almost here! The leather jacket is a must have for its rugged vibe and easy comfort. I can't seem to stir away from my leather jacket lately. This time I styled it with a super soft Recycled Karma top from Urban Outfitters that says "Believe in the Unknown". This quote reminds me to have an open mind and a positive attitude because there is still so much to learn in life let alone on earth. I decided to wear one of my favorite pairs of jeans, the Rally Cargo skinny jeans from rag + bone! They have six awesome pockets, leather panels that curve at the calf (That are like nothing I've seen before!), and seams outline the knees giving a tailored fit. Think of them as your modern day cargo pants, which go perfect with the Classic Newbury Booties. There's nothing better than a sleek pair of aviators to top off this rocking look!

Y O U R E V E R Y D A Y G I R L meets R I S EOne of the trends I wanted to try all winter was the men's suit that is trending. I was ecstatic when I rescued this retro jumpsuit from the pits of Dig & Save. Thankfully it is in my size and is in perfect condition without sign of wear or staining. I really like the balance of femininity and menswear because it can make you feel strong and powerful. Nowadays there are many women who are the breadwinner of the family. This shows women are stronger than ever, we can really do anything we want if we set our minds to it. When working with a longer pant keep in mind that you want to keep a tall and lean look. Nude sandals are nice and simple. I love this clutch with its floral embroidery on a black backdrop that gives a feminine touch. I am obsessed with needlepoint style embroidery or most commonly known as "Grandma’s Couch" fabric, this is a technique that dates back thousands of years to ancient Egypt. Any good business woman knows to have a watch handy in any given situation. I chose a skinny black watch because it is feminine and sleek perfect for this polished look. Aviators are pretty universal shape, I believe anyone can pull them off and they are great for blocking the sun and staying mysterious. Red lips usually never go wrong and it is always fun to wear lipstick so grab one you like to top off your look. Woman In Black Your Everyday Girl Tip : With these large buttons on the sleeves not much jewelry is needed. I added a watch and cameo ring on opposite hands as well as small stud earrings. As the old saying goes, less is more. Jumpsuit: Vintage Heels: Zara Clutch: Vintage Ring: Sarah Coventry Watch: Anne Klein
T H E C L A S S I CIf your style is all over the place as is mine, then I know you also like to be classically chic at times, this could be solved with a classic red and black color combination. I love a button up paired with a skater skirt because it says I am here to have fun but I mean business. The pin stripes add just the right vibe of menswear complemented with a skater skirt to keep it girly. I love this skirt because it is different from my other skater skirts, the small pleats add lots of volume to swirl around. In my opinion this is a perfect combination for any silhouette. The accessories bring this look to life with the vintage Coach mini bucket bag and polka dot socks with Newbury ankle booties. I love that the leather here adds two different textures; one soft and the other strong and rugged. One of the most important things to remember this summer is to protect the skin you are in. Aviators block the sun, but there is nothing better than a sun hat to protect your skin from burning while taking a walk in the town. Not only is the hat keeping my skin safe but it really tops off this look with an edgy feel. I’m not going to lie, I feel like I just walked out of the set of American Horror Story. What makes you feel like a superstar? Your Everyday Girl Top: Ben Sherman Skirt: KNIT by Kova and T Bag: Coach Booties: rag + bone Socks: UO Hat: Kathy Jeanne Aviators: Ray Ban Ring: Sarah Cov. As always, it is a pleasure to be able to work with The Rise Brand.
Keep your eyes peeled for their NEW ARRIVALS and our further collaborations. -T H E P U R S U I T O F E X C E L L E N C E- Making a great outfit is all about the details of the prints and color as well as the different textures and balances. Velvet is always a favorite for its soft texture and fancy look, especially in deep red. When wearing a jacket there are always chances you may want to unbutton it or take it off so I chose to wear a simple white camisole underneath to be prepared. The silk adds a great texture with just enough detail of lace and stripes. Printed pants are one of my favorite trends, they’re so much fun. I love the super skinny cut and how great the print lays. When something that is $30 can look like a $300, it does not get better than that and these pants are it. A pointy toed heel is always nice because they never go out of style and elongate your legs. I walked most of the day with these and they were super comfy. Milkmaid braids are so cute and I actually had never done them before, thanks to my awesome sister for doing my hair and makeup. It is exactly what I wanted and more! Accessorizing is all about the details such as with the jewels on these dainty earrings and simple black cameo. Needless to say the beautiful gold details on this vintage bag, from the strap to the tassels and beaded flowers. Fortunately, I wore this look on a beautiful and sunny day with a stylish pair of Club Master, this look is complete.

Always remember where you came from and who you are. Life will take you to many places that will be great and some that may not be so amazing, stay true to yourself and remain a humble person that will help someone in need whether it is in an action or a smile.
