DENIM ON DENIM & LEATHER

The denim bandwagon is here and it's going to stay for awhile. The fabulous denim trend have come and gone, but it's making a comeback. Denim with leather, denim with denim, and even denim with couture. It does make one fabulous concoction and the best part is that the "it can be paired with everything and anything and it's working" is absolutely WORKIN'. I've seen fabulous guys pairing a denim jacket with their suit (dress shirt under a sweater, under a denim jacket, under a suit jacket). Oh it's happening, AND WORKING! There's a quality that denim possesses that we're going crazy over. Maybe because it's versatile and you can pair it with absolutely everything. Or maybe because there's shades from the rainbow (and more) that you can choose from, mix and match with, and rock like denim is the only thing in your closet. Not only am I an advocate but I encourage it. Rock your denim which ever way you can and have fun with it! 

On a side note, this fabulous leather coat, I KNOW! It's sort of beat up (because, I've worn this since I was in middle school), sort of fabulous and kind of perfect. I love pieces that can stay in my closet and it will still stay in style or will eventually go back into style. There's no wonder I always gravitate towards those go-to staple pieces in my wardrobe. And it doesn't hurt that it's black AND leather.

MENSWEAR

I've been on this menswear inspired binge for quite some time now and I don't think I'm going to stop any time soon. Tuxedo jacket, rolled up trousers and oxfords are the obvious menswear look that I can't get enough of. It's simple yet chic, with both masculine and feminine qualities. I added a sparkle box bag to add that touch of feminine flare that a masculine get-up needed to balance out two ends of the spectrum. 

I've had a lot of compliments on this tuxedo jacket throughout the years and believe it or not, this jacket was designed by my dad. He drew out a sketch and had someone sew it up. He's had a lot of great pieces created for my mom back in the 90s and I had the opportunity to snatch them. Like I've mentioned recently, I went on a nice little "shopping" trip in my mom's closet. Lots of great goodies!

SUNNY OCTOBER

It's the first of October, and the climate has been sunny & warm during the day and it gradually drops quite a bit at night. So, what better way than to bring out the button ups that were too hot to wear during the summer. It's perfect for cooler nights, for it's not quite cold yet as you're leaving your house. So a great skirt would be paired perfectly with a button up to keep yourself relatively warm as it gets cooler.

I've been having the denim craze for the past couple of months and I love to pair a great denim piece with practically ANYTHING, and it works! Play around with different colors and textures and before you know it, denim could be one of your go to essentials for fall.

NICOLE RICHIE IN ST. TROPEZ

Ph: I'm not obsessed 

Nicole Richie looked effortless and chic in St. Tropez with denim cutoffs, Vintage Chanel, and a crop top. It really can't get any better than that! 

I absolutely adore her outfit and it proves that simple and effortless style goes a long way. Just a few fantastic pieces can translate into an a amazing outfit.
