FLEWED OUT.

by Jamila Pierre


This dress isn’t anything new or innovative, but it sure as hell is still bomb AF. I actually own a few variations of a skeleton printed dress, even a co-ord set or two. I also own this very same dress, in red (not surprisingly they pretty much all came from Boohoo.com).

Every time I wear one of them I’m ready to be flewed out *Cardi B/ City Girls voice*. I always feel like my best self when I’m donning a piece like this, it makes it so that I can effortlessly convey myself the way I truly am….you know….on the inside (pun intended).

Every Halloween, Boohoo releases a few of these dresses in different variants and colorways, I buy them all up! Unfortunately, this exact dress is no longer available on their site, but they do still have some pretty rad alternatives. You’ll be pleased to know, I took did some digging across the inter-web and ended up finding some replacements.

I’m telling y’all, I gotchu.

As for the shoes? I’ve gone on and on about these for the better part of the last six months of last year, so they are definitely no longer available on Target’s site *cries in Spanish*. However, I did a some more of that digging I was just talking about, and I found some more alternatives for ya. Also, Nine West has a extremely similar pair on their site as well (even an ankle boot version), but they’re running out of sizes pretty quickly so don’t hate me if you couldn’t snag em’ in time. I’m sure a soft search in google will totally help you find something comparable.

I paired this dress with these shoes because I felt it to be a fairly simple way to add some fancy shmancy to the look without forfeiting comfort. I don’t know about you but….ya girl does NOT do high heels like that. I mean think about it, if you intend to gallivant with your boo (again….pun intended, see what I did there? You know….because Halloween, and boo….? Get it…? I’ll stop now), you’re more than likely going to want to have comfort on your side, in every regard. No one wants to end the date with blisters.

I threw on a simple bracelet, rocked a pair of classic cat-eye shades (you know….to block the haters), and one of my most worn necklaces to date (because #90sForeva). Oh and of course I had to have some obnoxiously bright reddish-pink nails AND a matte red lip.

MOTO PRINCESS.

by Jamila Pierre


I’m a #MotoPrincess girl, in a moto princess world; made of skulls, studs, perfectly stitched and place pleats just above the knees, biker jackets and boots, and an exorbitant amount of all things shiny.

If it says moto in title and/or has a moto vibe or look, ya girl is all over it. This shouldn’t be news. If you’ve been reading for a while you should know this, this should be so annoying to hear again, that’s how well you should know this about me already. None the less….it’s fact AF, moto is my LIFE.

Have you rolled your eyes yet? LMFAO, you know you love me.

I actually own just about a hundred moto-related pieces….maybe more, and I’ve been meaning to create either a post or a YouTube video, going through them and/or some great options at an affordable price. Which would you rather see?

I have a few colorways of these pants right here (the only difference is the contrasting zipper, which is what drew me to these pair), and I love them all just the same, immensely.

Sometimes I like to go big or go home with the moto look, and I’m head to toe with it, other times I like to sprinkle it into a look (like I’ve done here). I think this look is a more chill interpretation of a biker chick, and I’m totes here for it. I’m also totally into the fact that I accomplished the vibe without forgoing color. When you look a this outfit you think you have it pegged….but really you don’t, and if that isn’t #Goals….then I don’t know what is.

I softened the hard edge of the look with this cooler-toned pale green top, and I pumped up the glam by including a pair of pointy slingback flats and a bold red lip. and even though a decent amount of sass has been injected into the outfit, the overall feel is still quite casual (come thru camo print).
