I'm a big fan of casual, comfortable clothes.
Majority of the time, even if I'm going out to a club, I like to keep it comfortable.

There's no way I'm going to have a good time if my feet hurt from wearing some impossible shoes and my shirt is too tight.
Na bruh, that won't be me.

Now this wouldn't be something I would wear to a "club", but I wouldn't shy away from something like a hookah bar or a chill spot to gather with friends and get a drink.

I love the fuchsia cutout boots because they are bold and daring.
And the neon green Cambridge Satchel Co. Satchel: Excuse me sir, why are you so adorable?

If you love bold colors, don't wait until you find something perfect to match it up with.
Throw it in there, anywhere, and make it the highlight of your outfit. That's the point, right?
It's supposed to be loud; it's supposed to command attention.

So I think it makes more sense to pair bold things with a more neutral palette and pick things that will contrast with one another like the satchel and the boots.

Let's not forget the police hat...
Let me explain myself.

I would rock THE FUCK out of that hat in a moments notice and nobody would be able to tell me a damn thing.

The main ingredient in a spectacular outfit is confidence.
Never leave home without it.

Styling Tips: Fall 2012

1. Wearing socks and heels? Add socks.
Not only do socks and heels keep your feet warm, it adds a second dimension. It adds texture, color, and eye-grabbing patterns. It's fun doing the funky sock thing, but the classic white sock (pictured above) is almost always a good look. See my previous "Socks and Sandals" post here.

2. Pair leather....with more leather.
If it's one thing that I really love right now, it's all the leather on leather. It can look so sleek and so badass.
I'm on the lookout for a leather cap now. Hook me up if you know where I can get a dope one.

3. Embrace the dark lip.
When the weather begins to cool off, so should your lip color. A great bright red never goes out of style, but try to find some great plums and deep reds. See my previous "Dark Lips Trend" post here.

4. Try an all over pattern.
You saw it all over the runways like J. Crew, Balmain, Prada, etc. Lots of designers chose to express this with "power pantsuits."If you have similarly patterned tops and bottoms or items within the same color palette, the look would work as well.

5. Fun hats.
Not sure if I'm going through a phase right now, but I LOVE hats. I've bought probably like 10 hats for me and my boyfriend this year and I keep fighting the urge to get more...which of course I'm going to have to give in eventually. But whether the hat is a bit more subdued or loud as fuck, wear it with confidence and go on your merry little way.

6. Fall Florals.
This year, don't pack away your floral gear just because summer has passed. Keep it around through the fall, but pair it with weather appropriate items like jackets, boots, and scarves. And make sure you aren't wearing a thin fabric unless you have many layers. P.S. Yal notice her heels and socks?...Yea she gets it.
