Fall Trends I Pulled From HIS Closet

Fashion

I was looking for a look not too far from my normal vibe. I really wanted the oversized/baggy look that is trending for fall. I found myself in husbands closet.

My husband’s closet doesn’t get the attention it deserves. He has structured shirts, warm sweaters and long blazers in his closet. This haul was so much fun that I ended creating 3 looks.  Thanks to #FashionWeeks across the world oversized is the new fit.

His Hoodie – as an off the shoulder dress and a pair of ankle boot.

His Suit – As a suit with a bodysuit under in case I wanted an off the shoulder look. The pants I secured with a belt. Handbag is a custom #SBDesign

His Button down – Over a bodysuit, a pair of distressed jeans and a snake print sole clear strap sandal from @j0couture

Don’t forget the layered necklaces and a pair of chic sunglasses to complete your looks.

I had so much fun with this experience I encourage my readers to modify the tips and tricks above to best fit their fashion needs. Tag me in your social media post ❤

Not Grandmas Pearls these are #ExtraAF

Fashion

Pearls everywhere for fall I am borderline obsessed with adding them into my everyday looks. So, I pulled mine out of my jewelry box to think of ways to update my grandmas pearls and give them my #ExtraAF vibe.

Necklace:

The string of pearl you have been holding to all these years meets a gold rope chain and a jeweled necklace for that layered look.

String Pearl Necklace revamp

Earrings:

I mean there isn’t anything wrong with the pearl studs that sit in your jewelry box but why not add some #ExtraAF vibes with drop pearl earrings?

Why not trade in the pearl studs

Side note: drop pearl earrings are available to purchase via my Poshmark closet

Rings:

Take your old pearl ring and stack a metal color whether it be gold or silver. To complete this lux look.

Let’s add some extraness on our fingers

Always remember that accessories can take a simple look to #EXTRAAF

Borris Powell Grand Opening

Fashion

Last night I attended the grand opening for Borris Powell retail location at 216 S. Jefferson in Chicago. It is located on a great street with plenty of parking 👏and it is in amazing retail space with big store front windows that proudly display mannequins dripped in Borris Powell. I fell in love with Borris Powell all over again as soon as I stepped foot into his space.

I was able to chat for a few hours about patterns, garments, sequins and he shared details of his up coming projects. He will be headed to Omaha on 8.21 to show a small teaser collection on 8.22 and headlining their finale show on 8.24. Then a shopping event on 8.25. Chicago will have yet another chance to show love and support on 10.20 for his last show of the year titled BorN 1920. You can find more details http://www.BorrisPowell.com
