DRESSING LIKE AN "ADULT"

Fashion has been a lot of fun for me this year. My goal has been to deliver a more clean- crisp look, always. I achieve this by keeping my nails done, and focusing on skincare/haircare as much as possible. When the basics are taken care of, its easier to form an outfit around it. Minimalism really made styling myself quite effortless and fun. I rarely spend more than 15 minutes deciding on something to wear. It was really important to me to dress a little more prestigious now that I am in my late 20s. I want to give off the impression of a woman who is sure of herself and has somewhere to BE. Afterall, your style is your first impression !

Ive learned that working out really helps me feel more confident in my clothes. Ive been hitting the gym three to five times a week and its made all the difference. I am still thrifting pretty heavy and falling in love with the pieces that find me. The other day my boyfriend and I drove 45 minutes to the next city because we’ve exhausted every thrift store in OKC (a shame). I would say my fashion influences are Lulama Wolf, Tracee Ellis Ross, Mary Kate Olsen. I really enjoy the way Jenny Mustard puts outfits together, I also love me some Karla Deras .. I could go on forever, really. I just like a simple sexy vibe. Something that says, she barely tried and still looks amazing.

This look really wasn’t for anything special, we grabbed some food and did a little thrifting. Ran some errands around the city. My hair was still a little damp from the previous nights wash, so I did a simple bun. Mejuri sent me these earrings, and I’m adding them to my earring rotation ! I was excited about shooting this vintage top and I am even more excited for the fall so I can start wearing boots ! These boots are actually from Zara, as well as this denim skirt (old purchases). I’m still trying to stay away from fast fashion as much as possible.

What words would you use to describe your style ?
