Serving 90's.

by Jamila Pierre

Keep your head up, what?
Keep your head up, that's right
Whenever this life get tough, you gotta fight
With my homegirls standing to my left and my right
True blue, it's tight like glue

We are living (Hey)
Single
(And in a nineties kind of world
I'm glad I got my girls)

These sequin pants thooooooooooooo.....

What an awesome way to spice up some casual wears, I die over these and I will be dying over and over again, all spring (even summer), in these here diliciously distressed and sparkly pantalones. 

I had to add some 90's flare with the shade, head scarf, and the 'phat ass' necklace.

I also threw on these super comfy booties that I got on sale at Mandees (she definitely came to my rescue this time around), I slung this cute little bag from Macy's backstage over my shoulder (don't sleep on that store....fo' real), and I called it a day. 

Can we also say Color Palette? I mean really tho! 

I will say, I could've def sized down a bit with the sweater, but I still fucks with it. 

What I'm Wearing:

  1. Sunnies from Rainbow. $5
  2. Necklace from AFAZE. $5
  3. Top from Target.com. $8-9 (on sale)
  4. Bag from Macy's Backstage. $16
  5. Jeans from GSLvesme.com $40 (Got n sale, 30% off)

 

The Bomber

by Jamila Pierre

When I shop, whether in store or online, I am always on the look out for pieces that not many others will have or that not many would choose. Now i'm not saying people wouldn't choose the clothing I have, or that there's anything "new" about something as simple as a bomber jacket, a dress, a skirt, or otherwise. I am however saying that my choices have little to do with what others are doing, little to do with fitting a mold of what's trendy, little to do with the ordinary, and little to do with boring. I look for pieces that speak a language that only few understand, and I'm happy about it. 

Through the years I have found a way to be interesting and slightly understated, just eeeeeever so slightly understated. 

So when I went into the Rainbow in Midtown, I perused the isles fingering through everything, making calculations and recalculations. I never know what I'll find or what will strike my interest, but I do know the criteria: Interesting, fun, transitional (whether it be season, occasion, or "genre"), affordable, and most importantly it must speak my language.

When I saw this bomber I jumped inside for joy, the print  immediately caught my eye. When I saw the price and tried it on... I just knew it was a match made.
