This is a picture of my mom when she was 23 years old. As I have gotten older I have realized I am a spitting image of my mom even when it comes to fashion. It seems as many things in the world are advancing but fashion is going back in time. A lot of clothing items that my mom used to wear back in the 90′s seem to be creeping back into my closet. I was never used to the idea of vintage clothing but have gained a lot of respect for certain items and vintage purses that my mom passes down to me. Just because something is old does not mean it is not something that can't be worn or is not in style. I love this outfit my mom is wearing and it is something I would wear today. The high waisted jeans with a white t-shirt is still in style and the chunky gold hoops are right down my alley! 

In my blog I have talked mostly about high heels and have only written about one pair of sneakers. This is very shocking considering I am a sneaker head and have way to many pairs than I need. These are one of my other favorite pairs of sneakers that I have put on my Christmas list for Santa Clause this year. These are called Nike Prestos and have become one of Nikes most comfortable and stylish pair of sneakers to wear. What I like the most about these sneakers is the different types of materials that are shown in the picture. Nike puts a lot of detail into there sneakers and they also put a dent into my bank account. Being a young adult can be challenging as you are always trying to keep up with the latest trends. These have been very popular and if you are looking for Santa to buy you a new pair of sneakers. Ask for the Nike Prestos, you won't regret it!

Over Thanksgiving break my younger brother won a prestigious award for the AJGA Junior Rolex Player of the Year. I went to Florida to watch him accept his speech at a formal dinner and was so beyond proud. Not only was I excited to support him but this gave me a reason to dress up which I don't get to do often due to being a tired and exhausted college student. This was one one of my favorite formal dresses and I was so excited to wear it! This high neck velvet midi dress is from Dillards, a department store. As I talked about previously velvet is very sleek and in style. To add a flare to the dress the high neck was covered in diamonds. I paired the dress with a pair of my favorite earrings, hoops of course that were silver and high diamonds on them matching the jewels on the dress. I wore a pair of my favorite black Steve Madden shoes and did a nice smokey eye makeup look. This was one of my favorite looks I have put together so far and Im happy I get to share it with everyone on my fashion blog!

This is one of my favorite beauty/makeup gurus on Youtube Carli Bybel. When i first discovered the beauty world online I was so intrigued by how much I had in common with a lot of these beauty bloggers. I would spend 90% of my time watching girls like Carli put outfits together from the hair to the makeup to the outfit. They would do videos called GET READY WITH ME and I would watch every week! Carli has built such a brand for herself and when it comes to fashion and makeup tips I have a certain level of trust with her more than other beauty bloggers online. Her personality is so bubbly and sweet and she really cares about her viewers. I would always try to copy looks she would put together and I felt I could related to her because of the common features we both have such as squinting, eyebrows, and hair texture. 

The trends are rolling in and are also renewing as we go into the new year. Throughout this blog I have mentioned pairing a lot of outfits with knee high boots. I always felt I was too short to wear knee-high boots until my mom bought me my first expensive pair of boots two years ago from Steve Madden. The boots were $200 and I wanted to sleep in them. I would always try to change the style of my shoes with whatever outfit I was wearing but for some reason would always end up wearing my black knee high boots. Another staple piece that should be in your closet, these are one of my favorites when the fall season rolls in.

In this blog I wanted to step away from fashion for a second and focus on one of my favorite models. Even though this is a fashion blog, I get my ideas from models and other fashion influencers around the world. Bella Hadid is my favorite model and I look to her for style inspiration.  Being a Victoria Secret model people are used to seeing her in angel wings but little do they know she  side but also has a tom boyish side and has a street style. She knows how to wear a cute dress with a pair of sneakers, or how to rock a pair of baggy jeans with confidence. I admire her being for steering away from the stereotypes of being a model and embracing multiple styles.
