Studded Accent

Small details make the biggest statement. For this season i am enjoying the studded details on shoes. I am also loving wedge and clog style shoes. If you want an earthy, rugged, and hard pop to your style you can do so by wearing these kind of heels. Paired with flared jeans and flowing tops, the look is feminine and edgy.

Why You So Obsessed With Me?

My Mind Is Like A Diamond Producing Colors Like A Prism

It's impossible to look at the multitude of blogs that are on the Web. But I find that getting my daily dose of the few blogs that are more than sub par does me justice. I gotta say, I want to have the kind of site that's well known, but it's very time consuming, and I just want it right. So in the near future, I'm looking for partners and i plan on investing in some good photo equipment. Learn the tricks of the trade. For now though, I want to share this blogger who i stumbled upon. She's a graphic designer from Paris who doubles up as a fashionista. What do you get? Originality. When i saw her blog i thought, "Why didn't i think of this?!" Ingenious. Love that her true face is hidden behind her art, and not the other way around. Want to see more? Click here for her blog site My Kinda Magazine.

Good Girls Finish Last

Hellz Bellz makes the best streetwear apparel for females. In this post I thought I'd bring back the shirt of all shirts: The Good Girl Gone Bad T-shirt by Hellz Bellz and In4mation. It's pretty difficult to find any images of this shirt since this dropped a while ago, but I freaking love this t-shirt. I pretty much stop wearing this t-shirt (hence the wrinkles and pink sweat pants) but it has always been a standout piece in all of the Hellz Bellz collections because of the applied meaning. Everything about Hellz Bellz screams middle finger in the air. For all you suckers who let a good girl go, don't worry, we're not really gone forever. : P

Color Scheme: Red

There's nothing that brings a smile to my face like a fresh young man and a red hat. Random? Yes. My personal preference? Of course! Something about the color red screams confidence when worn with an outfit. Especially if it is a stand-alone piece like a watch or a solid red shoe, expect to make a statement of some sort. Pharrell is a great example of someone who uses red to make a statement. Others like Kanye, of course, do it justice--- his sneaker line featured a red shoe and his red heart brooch definitely influenced fashion in the past year. The use of colors in fashion can play up an emotion or an expression,and the color red screams fearless, competitive, confident, 'hey look at me', type of feel that I love. My next post shall be about purple, my favorite color, and what it says about the individual who wears it. It's interesting to see that fashion can be a science, but don't take it too seriously.

I'm currently obsessing over denim! Adding to that is this pretty neat overall piece from Free People which is perfect for an occasion like a day walking in the city. Scratch the saddle shoes, pair with tan or black sandals, add some accessories and create a relaxed boho chic look on super clean white. Can't wait for spring!

Nothing On My Back But The Delicates Of Fabrics

A lightweight jacket is essential for the spring! Not only because you will want to enjoy the weather, but because you can layer a hooded sweater or thermal shirt underneath without feeling bulky if it gets brisk. I enjoy the simple aesthetics of the quilted jackets and vest pictured here. The middle picture is definitely my favorite, It's a quilted gilet vest from J. Crew that is $195.

The Magazine Clutch

The magazine clutch idea has been around for quite a while but I never took it upon myself to buy one seeing that it can easily be a do-it-yourself item. I love that you can add sophistication and a vintage feel to an outfit just by wearing this handbag. There are so many versions including Vogue, Bazaar, Elle,Essence--you name the mag and there might be one. This is def. a fashionista item even though they are very hard to find (mainly on eBay or special boutiques). I would need a Complex and Latina one. That would be DOPE.

Remix

I've never been a fan of conventional things, especially not clothing. Denim is universal but it doesn't have to be cookie-cut. Selecting a a good jean can be a challenge, especially for me, but if you go for something more edgy like the denim track pants pictured above, you can add a funky/effortless look to any outfit. Not all bottoms can be worn easily- like harem pants!I just don't get those things.

Urban Outfitters varsity jacket.

Free People lace v-neck and cargo pants.

Asos lace up boots.

Even though clothing stores are already displaying the newest fashions for spring, it is never too late to purchase a few things for the remainder of the cold season. I saw these pieces and thought they could be worn in the winter and in the spring time when it gets a little cooler. The jacket is not too heavy or light and the boots are in style and could be worn by women if you can find the right ones.The lace top just delivers a feminine flare to a rather rugged look but any regular shirt will do. Most of these posts reflect my personal style so like i always say, "it's just my opinion."

A couple of things have been catching my eye lately as well:

-versatile watches
-premium denim
-black leather jackets

Hellz Bellz x Reebok

A special treat for black Friday shoppers! Hellz Bellz will be releasing a sneaker in collaboration with Reebok on November 27th.You can buy online on the Hellz site or hit up select street wear retailers. Not a fan of the sneaker, but a stepping stone nonetheless.

Style Watch

Uh-oh Amerie is back, and rightfully so. One of my favorite singers and one of the naturals in the game, her style is shining through in these pictures. Her album, In Love & War, is in stores now. Songs to watch out for: Swag Back, More Than Love, The Flowers, Red Eye.

Watch Me Take Flight

Life breeds fashion! The picture above is of "the first lady of the air" otherwise known as Amelia Earhart. A movie about her, Amelia, will be in theaters soon.

Let's get serious. By now, most, if not all fashion lovers should know about Hellz Bellz. If not, I promise you are seriously out of the loop. Hellz Bellz IS the premiere clothing line for ladies streetwear, and i figured i'd pay Miss Lawn her respect. Next to Stussy nothing comes close to originality, consistency, quality, and just plain kick ass clothing. As an avid collector I have to say I have never been disappointed in any purchase i've made from Hellz Bellz. Up-and-coming fashion designers should look at this label as an example of how to stick to and cater to your audience, all the while being innovative. I dont' really have to say much else because if you're a bad bitch then you know Hellz Bellz is a must. Some cool Web sites that carry Hellz Bellz are: Commonwealth, Boundless NY, 80's Purple,5 & A Dime, and many more.
