Winter Shorts

Coat H&M | Long Sweater H&M | Grey Sweater Zara | Shorts Breco's | Tights Kushyfoot | Necklace Express | Earrings Gift | Hand Bracelet Muse of June | Bag Stone | Socks Forever 21

Let's talk about the star of this outfit, the shorts. I bought these shorts at +Crossroads Trading Co. before I left for NY for fashion week in September. So needless to say I've had these for 6 months and this is the first time I've worn them. As with most of my unique thrift finds I fell in love with these shorts as soon as I put them on. I love the color and the spike detailing down the side. They're Leather. They're Vintage. They're Great. 

To wear shorts in the winter, one must layer, layer and layer some more. Today I layered my nike leggings with a pair of Kushyfoot tights and my Forever 21 socks. And of course on top I layered my 3/4 sleeve Zara sweater with a long sweater from +H&M and my staple winter coat. Would you rock shorts this winter? And if so how? Comment below.

Shimmer Tattoo Nail Art


I got these Shimmer Jewelry Tattoos from FYI PR. I can't really wear them out right now as I'm totally covered up. So I got the idea to create cool nail art out of them. This was my first time trying this so bear with me lol. I found this process pretty easy and quick. It's a great way to get nail art without have to draw it on yourself. Stay tuned into my Instagram for when I try this again.

What You Will Need:

  • Selected Nail Color. I suggest color that will allow the silver or gold pop.
  • Top Coat (not shown)
  • Nail Polish Remover
  • Brush
  • Cotton Balls
  • Shimmer Tattoos
  • Water (not shown)

1. Paint Nails Desired Color. Let Dry Overnight.


2. Clean Up Any Mistakes with Nail Polish Remover.


3. Cut Out Desired Shapes for Nail Art.


4. Put Nail Art on Nail and Apply Wet Cotton Ball to Back. Peel Paper Off.


5. Paint Nails with Top Coat. Let Dry Fully.


Viola!

Camel Coat in the Snow

Coat Thrifted Lauren Ralph Lauren | Sweater H&M | Shirt Vintage | Jeans Rock Revolution | Belt Vintage | Bracelets Urban Outfitters, Vintage | Watch Relic | Earrings Vintage | Necklace Vintage | Socks Stance | Boots Ecote
I woke up to snow and it was beautiful. As a woman who has NEVER lived where it snows, I've had a "I could never" attitude about it. Mainly just hearing the horror stories of walking or driving in the snow. Moving to the east coast in the winter, clearly I wasn't going to escape the snow. This was my first time I've been excited to be in the snow. Living here I realized it's really not that bad. Needless to say it was pretty cold outside today. I made sure to layer up with my camel coat my mom sent me, my H&M sweater and long sleeve denim shirt. I opted for my suede booties and some printed socks to add an extra element to my outfit. And as usual I accessorized with layers of gold jewelry.
