How to Style Velvet

Personally I as a fan of style icons like Stevie Nicks love experimenting with all different types of fabrics and textures in clothing. By far one of my favorite fabrics to wear is velvet. I own velvet leggings, velvet pants, velvet crop tops, dresses, and even a vintage black velvet cardigan. I have found bringing this subtle texture into an outfit can really make it pop without making it to over the top. I personally own black velvet leggings which I tend to wear a lot more instead of my plain black ones especially in the winter because they give extra warmth. So pretty much what I am saying is velvet styles itself its an amazing texture to bring into your wardrobe especially in the winter because it is warm and also sensible. The only bad thing about this small fashion tip is the amount of lint can get out of hand especially when worn with thicker fuzzier sweaters however investing in a lint roller is a totally worthwhile investment because of the enhancement velvet can bring to your overall outfits.
Bell Bottoms a little more daring but really interesting (can be found in Forever 21 and on tobi.com)

Photoshoot in the Woods

Me and my best friends took an adventure into the rather sketchy woods near our house for a mock photoshoot (note to self: I am the least photogenic person on the planet)...

                                                  (All pictures taken on a cannon rebel)


                                                   had some falls along the way

       Yes my best friends mom was a super model thats why she is so tall and beautiful its in her genes

                                 wearing brand new white chucks into the woods was a bad idea


For this we chose to wear fall inspired outfits Estelle wore cream colored vans with a light wash pair of skinny genes rolled up and an oatmeal colored cropped sweater.

I wore red corduroy shorts an oatmeal and white lace sweater with white high top converse (my signature shoes) and a gold Kate Spade necklace.
