Daily Outfit: Pearls and Clouds

though usually i live on the edge of sweet and punk, this outfit is pure sweet.  from the colors down to the accessories, i kept this look simple.  the thing i love best about this outfit is that it is a mix of old and new old.   what do i mean by new old? well, my tunic dress was a sweet (pun intended) find at a thrift store so though it's new to me, it is a thrifted item so... technically it's old.  my footless tights have also been around forever too; they were the perfect addition so that i could have subtle coverage and not worry about exposure from my mini-dress.  i finished off the look with my wedges and pearls.  i rarely want to wear pearls but they just seemed right.   i definitely didn't have to miss the edge because the rough surroundings for our photo shoot made a great contrast for my sweet look.  maybe i should have called it pearls and pebbles lol xo sesheta

Daily Outfit: Native Plume

 

 

 I love that you can glam up an entire outfit with a turban. Is it a hat? Is it a scarf? The concept had my co-worker completely intrigued...and then impressed. It's a little bit of both in today's look, accenting a plain white tee and a dark navy skirt. I love mixing different materials and I was excited to pair my vintage wool skirt with this leather bomber jacket.  I had to bring in the tribal trend with my suede fringe studded booties (worn so many times before, but this is their debut on the blog.) They always seem to get compliments, people are digging their playful vibe. And they feel like slippers, so I enjoy that. 

Who wouldn't want to add vintage pearl clusters into the mix? Studs, pearls, fringe and leather- oh my! It's the details that make this outfit come together into a luxe-hippie-chic dream come true. I had so much fun with this look...it definitely makes me feel like a Premiere Fashion Maven!

PS- did you notice that this title is keeping with Sesheta's "Native Plum" heeheehee we are so harmonious!

Daily Outfit: Sargent Sesheta

i had such a blast with this photoshoot.  it was one of the first cool days ushering in the fall season.  it actually was the first day i put on closed shoes.  although i am reluctant to put away all my summer sandals, i definitely welcomed a day to wear my docs.  Dr. Martens bring me back to high school days (i won't focus on how long ago those days are :P) when i got my first pair.  in those days, i favored the low steel toe shoes, which my aunt called my herman munster shoes lol.  oh yeah, i was a village girl.  my school was on E16th and 3rd Ave., so Greenwich Village was a short walk away.  my friends and i made it a regular detour on our way home. this outfit is my grown girl ode to those days.  my choice was all about comfort cause it was threatening to rain and i wanted to be prepared.  i just love my taupe/gray denim leggings from Current Elliott; you feel like you don't even have anything on (but you do! lol).  i paired it with my red graphic tee (Heru!) and a mock pea coat to keep me warm.  to soften the military edge of my wardrobe choices, i added my pearls and black tulle bow headband to girlify it all.  attention! :)
