Stylist Tip: Keep it simple, the long coat alone demands attention as a fashionisto so don't do to much under.  A combination of blacks and neutral tones or textures and layers should be just enough to exhibit your inhibition for fashion.

Take the Trend in your Own Hands

To be or not to be "trendy."

  I'll be the first to say that as a stylist, I do not personally mind trends. Trends normally catch on and become fads because they have a wide range or versatility and the ability to fulfill and satisfy the needs of many consumers. My problem with "trends" are when "stylist" recycle a look from another stylist or put together a look that they believe is "in." I believe, in general people need to start getting more in touch with themselves and wear what makes them happy.

Now if you do follow fashion and seeing what is in makes you happy, then maybe new trends are something for you to keep up on. Last Years jackets consisted on short bubble coats, silhouetted denim jackets, bombers and leather bikers. Though the cropped jackets turned heads, designers  of 
spring/summer 2014 made the return of the long length coats. With a multitude of patterns, textures, dimensions and lengths designers all over kept up with the trend and carried it over into the Fall/winter 2014 collections. 

”GQ magazine writes: “The designers in Milan and Paris realize that some countries – like our own – are not blessed with a dry, Mediterranean climate all season long; sometimes a coat is essential even on the hottest days."




One of the biggest supporters of the long jacket trend was Fendi, who showcased their collection in Milan. Another design house that took a more refined approach to the trend was Ermenegildo Zegna. Their collection featured lightweight knee-length overcoats and trenches in traditional shades of beige, black and  light blue. Soon after, many brands and designers began opting to move away from shorter, cropped silhouettes within their new SS14 campaign and began constructing denser coats for the FW14. The Cuts became very similar but the most common coat seem to be the beige/ camel tone coat. 



The almost unisex coat has been popping up everywhere, from Kim k and Kanye, to your favorite bloggers including myself. The simplistic 1970's inspired coat provides warmth and ease with a stunning look that can be obtained easily. Like mentioned in the stylist tip, rocking this winter go to jacket should be be enough to make the world want to be you. Keep your styling to a minimum and confidence to the max. check out how I wore mine.

Happy Holidays,

Closet Snoopers, I don't know about you but, I am excited for the season of happiness. This year was the first year that I've been invited to an #uglysweater party, so I had to wander through my closet to find something. Luckily I was able to find this gold beaded cotton sweater from Amvets Thrift Store that I had purchased during the summer time. With the sweater I wore my Customized Ripped  acid wash jeans and low top canvas chuck taylor #converse. Winter time calls for winter accessories so I popped on my #Asos fire engine red #skully. *(I am doing a blog post soon on distressed denim as well as taking request for special orders)

    Taliek ,Ashton, TJ, Aladdin,

    To me theres no limits when it comes to fashion. Fashion is any form of art that can be worn on the body, thought up by the mind or created by the eye. Here I allow my many alter egos to Roam freely providing diverse aspects of fashion.
