NEW IN: LEATHER CHOKER

IMG_6086lessleather

 

A minimalist essential, the Less Leather choker is sleek  and 100% sustainable. Less Leather products are made from kangaroo leather, and handcrafted in Australia. Being that I love a good choker myself, I had to add this piece to my collection. I have velvet chokers, and western inspired bolo ties, but nothing like this. A simple black choker with soft ribbon details is all I need in this life.

This was simply an introduction, and I cannot wait to show you all details of how it looks on!

WHAT I WORE: BABY TEE AND LACE UP SHORTS

A couple of weeks back I had told one of my besties that I wanted lace up shorts, but I never found a pair that fit well. So of course AKIRA came into the picture with this pair that I had to have. I like that they can be paired with alot of simple tops, like a band tee or a baby tee. Not only that, but if you want to dress it up, you can wear it Kendall Jenner at Coachella style with a lace bra top. I’m petite, but my booty needs room, so I was so glad that the sizing was perfect. I went with a size small after contemplating between a small and medium. Shop the shorts here, or look through new arrivals here! Next I want to talk about the baby tee, which is literally…a baby tee.

So, how can you possibly get away with wearing a kids tee? Very simple.

  1. I picked this one up for $2 dollars at Forever 21 in the kids section, and you can too.
  2. Because kids have their own sizing: 5/6, 7/8, 9/10, and 11/12, it would be best to just try them on. (because I am small ontop, a 5/6 fit me perfectly.)
  3. There’s no rules. If you want to wear a kids tee, wear a kids tee. Its about how you rock it.

The true definition of a baby tee, would be Rumi Neely’s version, which you’ve undoubtedly seen all over her Instagram. This kids tee is a bit longer than the AYAI baby tees, but in reality, you don’t have to spend $79 on it. Let me tell you how. Quick DIY ladies: Buy the kids tee at forever 21, and in order to achieve the AYAI baby tee raw hem JUST CUT IT. I actually just got the idea as I was typing this, so I’ll be doing it myself soon.

WHAT I WORE: PINSTRIPES

Heels: Public Desire

 

The hunt for perfect culottes has ended. Being that I’m relatively short, about 5’3 on a good day, I’ve been hesitant to wear culottes. But of course, after a little pep talk with myself and the discovery of AKIRA, I took the leap. I’ve spent plenty of hours in dressing rooms wishing I was taller, but somehow the pinstripes and slits on this pair of culottes worked out perfectly for my stature. If you’re not feeling this look, toss the cap and switch the tank for a crop top for a nighttime outfit. Want to see more from AKIRA? Shop their killer new arrivals here!

WHAT I WORE: LACED UP

Slightly late to the lace-up bodysuit party, but better late than never right? The plunging lace-up detail is so damn cool and edgy. The material is ribbed, and for your reference I’m wearing an xsmall because #teamlittleboobs. They just stocked up on amazing bodysuits on Necessary Clothing, and I would totally die for these: need, and need.

For April playlist is quickly approaching, just saying.
