OOTD: Winter White Weekend

Two weekends ago my cousin had a her birthday party at the Yotel in New York City (I have to assume that people other than New Yorkers read my blog). Before this I had never gone to the Yotel. I was uber excited because I have heard nothing but good things about it. 

I decided to bust out an all white fit! I don't know if I ever told you guys but I get food and makeup on EVERYTHING!!! So wearing white is a very adventurous thing for me! I paired a white blouse with white jeans and a blush moto jacket from Forever 21 topped off with a pair of snake skin Lady Daf's from Christian Louboutin . I think this outfit is the definition of Hi-Lo's but you can be the judge. 

Ahh before I forget my boss gifted me the CUTEST Emilio Pucci-esque clutch! I have had it for a couple of months and thought it was the perfect addition to the outfit because it pulled in the all white and the jacket!!! Enjoy the pics and tell me what you think!

Utter and Total DOPENESS: Monotone Outfits

Definition of monotone: 
  1. Of or having a single color.

    I have been gagging over every monotone outfit that has popped up on my timeline in recent months. Whether it has been a celebrity or the fab people I follow on Instagram. I, not only, gag over celebrities but over dope everyday working folk (such as myself).


     You have to admire people who don't wake up and have a whole team at their beckon call. We get up look at our own closet, do our own hair and makeup, pick out our own accessories.  We put all of that together and hope it looks as dope as we imagined in our heads and go out the door. Mind you 95 percent of the items I mentioned we purchased with our hard earned money not gifted by a designer.

    Ironically,the fashion industry pulls from "street fashion" -THAT MEANS US- all the time! The fashion world people watch just like the common folk. That's why I think so many fashions recycle themselves.
    So below I am going to give you a mix of celebrities and everyday fab people in the monotone trend. Which by the way I don't think is going anywhere anytime soon!
    Kim is definitely a monotone expert! I don't think I have seen her fail at this style! 


    I couldn't find too many pictures of Beyonce  in this trend but the look I did find she killed nonetheless. And of course MOTHER RIH-RIH! All jean is one of the dopest monotone trends around! 

    The couple that monotones together stays together..
     
    And last but not least! Little ole me!
