{Style’Fits} Mr. Chuck Taylor & I

 When I was a teenager, sneakers were my go-to for comfort and style. During the summer, I remember my sneaker of choice were a crisp pair of white, low-top Nikes also known as “uptowns” in the hood. And if they got dirty at all, that meant it was time to purchase a new pair. I made great childhood memories with those Nikes every summer.

 However, lately, my feet have been consistently rocking a pair of fresh white Converses.  It’s become a renewed love affair actually. As a matter of fact, I think I’ve been wearing it too much because I’m noticing scuff marks already. I’ve realized that some people think that with sneakers, you are often limited on outfits because the traditional concept is just throw on anything (casual or raggedy) and go! There’s no thought or effort into putting outfits together…until now. You will find that with Converses, it’s more versatile than you think. And you can actually look good doing it too!

 Below are each of my top 3 outfits for Stylin’ Mr. Chuck Taylor with pants and with maxi dresses…

I’ve been mixing ensembles together to go with Mr. Chuck for the past few weeks and decided  to share some outfits I think are  totally doable and stylish. I won’t lie, this was a little challenging but I think I’ve accomplished something inspiring.

I’ve discovered it’s sometimes good to challenge your inner-stylish-sneaker-self. That’s where great personal style always begin… from within.

TRENDspotting: The Stylish Book Clutch

If you’re an avid book reader, like myself, then you would surely appreciate an accessory as functional and chic as this. It is something, I feel, every trendy yet  closeted bookworm should own….better yet, carry in their hands. Who cares if you’re the only girl in your class who actually enjoys reading books! After your peers see you with this book clutch, they will have to start calling you the “stylish nerd”.

P.S. How dope would it be if there was a clutch just for magazines?!

TRENDspotting: The BURBERRY Outerwear

These Burberry coats looks so good by themselves, you don’t even need an outfit underneath (no one would know unless you told them). All you need is some bangin’ high heels and you’re good to go!

                 

 

Now the Burberry trench (below), I kid you not, in my perfect world where money is never an issue, would be in my closet. No, better yet, I would be rocking this hard to work and play! I’m such a sucker for studded details on anything! That’s all I have to say about that.

TRENDspotting: I Want Jewelry On My List, Please!

So I came across a blog site from overseas (Germany to be exact) and found a showroom with one of kind pieces(I assume) and ofcourse, I, a lover of pretty things fell in love instantly. Unfortunately, they are stationed in Berlin so there is no way for me to even see the jewelry in person, let alone purchase. Can you believe it’s easier for me to fall in love with superficial things than to fall in love with someone significant? Don’t judge, just get sucked in with me…’look at all the shiny things’

Does anyone know where I can find exquisite jewelry like these? Better yet, is anyone in the spirit of giving – I promise I won’t object! :)

TRENDspotting: The Flannel Jumpsuit

 

No longer are flannels just for the bedroom, they are now being incorporated into your wardrobe staple for work. And thank goodness for its versatility because you would fit right in, more than likely, for those last minute after-work parties!

There is something so incredibly sexy yet sophisticated (and don’t forget street-style-approved) about this one piece attire that speaks volume to me! This model wore this outfit with basic yet alluring accessories – a bright colored clutch, chic shades, & a pair of animal print wedges.

If you ever come across a clothing piece similar to this, I suggest investing into one ASAP. You might end up wearing it more often than you’d like to admit but don’t worry, I won’t tell. Just as long as you discover you own flexibilities with it.
