AUTUMN ESSENTIALS






Fall has become my favorite season. It's cool enough to wear subtle layers, yet warm enough to show just the right amount of skin. Here are some outfit inspirations I pulled from Pinterest. Below is a list of essentials I'm on the lookout for. 
  • The perfect pair of loafers
  • Bomber jackets 
  • Flannel shirt dress 
  • Peep-toe booties 
  • Dark wash jeans 
  • Distressed jeans 
  • Pleather leggings
  • Oversized sweater 
  • Cute scarves

DIAMOND CELEBRATION






MUSE & MENSWEAR


Supreme hat, EPTM shirt, Cotton On pants, Nike shoes, Herschel backpack, Casio watch

There's no doubt that I enjoy being behind the camera. There's something so stimulating about visually appealing photos. For the most part I'm a detailed oriented person, but I also think it's important to have the ability to see the bigger picture. Presentation is everything! I've always had an interest in menswear, so why not showcase it from my point of view with my very own muse. 
(And no, he's not wearing my shoes. He loved mine so much I got him a pair too.)

NIKE FREE 4.0 FLYKNIT


I couldn't be happier with my latest Nike purchase. Since I'm fairly active at the gym year round it was finally time for me to retire my Flyknit Lunars. Before I had the Nike Flyknit Lunar 1+ I had the Nike Free Run 2. I was immediately drawn to the Nike Free 4.0 Flyknit, because it was kind of like having the best of both worlds. I also decided to get the Pure Platinum color instead of my usual black because the intricate patterns on the shoe appeared bolder than the rest. Since I just got them the other day I haven't had time to test them out at the gym. I've sported them around the apartment and so far I'm in love. It's everything I look for in shoes; comfort, style, and quality.

If you don't already know, I haven't consumed meat since January 2015. The transition was surprisingly easier than I thought it would be. I constantly get hounded with the questions, and my personal favorite is... "So what do you eat?" The answer is seafood.  

Here's a super easy and healthy-ish recipe for homemade fish tacos. There's a lot of yummy food you can eat and make that doesn't contain any meat. Thankfully my boyfriend is very supportive with my pescetarian lifestyle, and since he's the one who cooks 99.9% of the time I have to give him all the credit. These fish tacos were the best I've tasted yet.

OLIVE JUICE



You can find these items at Forever 21: 

At rare times you'll catch me wearing some color. If I'm not in black, white, grey, or nude my top three choices of color would be olive, oxblood, and some kind of dark blue. I bought this trapeze dress a while ago, and it's been my go-to outfit on many occassions. I've dressed it with booties, heels, converse, and a wide brim hat. My closet is mainly made up of basic versatile pieces that's easy to dress up or down.
