Geometric Daze

This is what my typical look is, especially if I have a long day ahead of me. I love these shorts I got from a shop on St. Marks in Manhattan. They are so perfect. After I got them, I could not stop wearing them. Of course, I am always wearing my leather jacket and platform boots. Since it was pretty windy that day, I decided to use a shaw of mine as a scarf. Gave a look of more layers and really helped bring everything together.  

Shorts: Tripp NYC

Everything else: Thrifted

This skirt is so fun to wear. I wanted to have a chance to wear it out before it gets too cold. I think it goes best paired with this white bustier lace top I found in a thrift store a while back. This outfit is very romantic with a sultry vibe. In order to not make it too sexy, I sported my favorite leather black jacket. Sometimes I wear this jacket over dressy outfits in order to toughen up my image. I feel that I can't allow myself to look to dainty. It's just not me. The shoes also give off a bold look with the chunky heels and big silver buckles.

Autumn Leaves

Autumn is slowly fading into winter. The short time that the fall season is here, I take every opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. To me and many others, it's the perfect season. The air turns crisp, the temperature is comfortable, and there seems to be a more carefree feeling in the air. Growing up in Florida, I didn't really get to experience a "true" autumn. The weather would become a little chillier, but no leaves would turn and the Florida sun would still outshine any chance of overcast. It never truly felt festive. That's why my first year here in New York, I made sure to embrace the fall season. My boyfriend and I decided to take a day trip to Sleepy Hallow, just an hour outside of the city, to take these photos. We explored the historic cemetery and enjoyed the nature surrounding it.

First Outfit Post

Since moving to NYC, my level of production has sky-rocketed. I have learned that my time is valuable and every moment must be spent wisely. Every free moment is an opportunity to grow and try something new. Recently I have been working more on sewing and making garments. Here, I am wearing a simple set of garters that I made out of elastic along with a collar made from patten leather that I hand cut myself. The streets of NYC are so inspiring. After long days of walking around Manhattan, I unwind by creating.
