Red, Red, Red

This week we explore this wonderful and stunning color! When wearing red be sure to tone down everything else. You don’t want to look too crazy colorful! Yet I am always a fan for a couple of colored pieces with some red lipstick. If you can pull it off, then do it! That’s what fashion’s about, after all. You express yourself through your clothing. If it’s not “you” and you don’t feel comfortable in it, then it’s not true “fashion”. Always wear what you love and don’t worry about what others might think, if it’s you then you shouldn’t feel self conscious!

Anyways, I love my red heels! They are super comfortable and sassy, perfect for a “feeling pretty” day! Wear them with a dress, like in the photo, and you’ll get compliments from your peers! But don’t limit yourself to dresses, mini skirts and skinny jeans are also fun options!

Final Days are Fashionable Days

Hello people!
So Thursday was my last day at FIT and I absolutely loved every second of it! The people are incredible, and having it be the second time I was in New York City I felt surprisingly at home. You know you have found the place that you want to live in when you leave but it doesn’t feel like you are really leaving. It feels like you are taking a vacation to go back to your real home. Anyways, just wanted to share that little tidbit of life advice before talking about the real reason for this post, which is the outfit!

This outfit is a final statement outfit, and that is why I wore it for the last day of class! The pieces are really bright and easily interchangeable to brighten up any outfit. But I had seen people pull off the mustard-yellow-vibrant-green combo before so when I saw this shirt and skirt at Forever 21, I had to try it!

I paired the whole outfit with Rimmel London’s Kate lipstick in Number 09. I also paired it with a bowler hat from H&M to add a little extra flare and uniqueness to the whole ensemble. I really wanted the hat and all the colors to be the focus of the outfit so I kept everything else very simple and I didn’t wear any other jewelry as to not overwhelm any of my peers on the campus (but I did turn a few heads in Central Park!).

Until next time,
