Shop My Closet – Coming Soon

So many of you have been asking for the opportunity to raid my closet…well here’s your chance! I’ve decided to do a little spring cleaning in preparation for my upcoming move to New Orleans (for law school) and thought why not give you guys first dibs.

I’ll be spending the next couple of days meticulously going through my closet and gathering some of my favorite items to pass on to some of my favorite people…YOU!

While some of you might be quite excited, I know others of you are thinking, “Bish, I am NOT your size! It’s not fair!” Trust me, I understand your frustration. My hope is that there will be a little something for everybody. I will be posting clothes, shoes, and accessories. I will also post on occasion items that I find while thrifting that aren’t my size but far too awesome to leave behind. So I’m sure you’ll be able to find at least one thing you love and that fits into your life. *fingers crossed*

REAL STYLE: SoHo Strollers

One of the things I love about NYC is there are virtually no fashion don’ts. I’m about 99.9% comfortable saying…ANYTHING goes here! What’s not to love about that?!

The weather in NYC yesterday was incredible! What better way to spend a beautiful day than taking a stroll through SoHo to check out some of the awesome NYC fashion?  I grabbed my camera and headed out the door to see if I could find some dope street style. I ran into a couple of people yesterday that I thought were effortlessly chic.

Check them out…

I think she’s the first person I’ve EVER seen who looked cute in Timbs. I won’t be running out to buy any, any time soon (the Southerner in me forbids it), but I have to admit, she makes them look fab!

Her 80's style accessories rock!

Love his use of color. Color blocking w/ a masculine swag.

Super cute top! Her glasses matches the owl’s. hehe

All black everything…right down to her nail polish. Just the way I like it!

Now is this not THEE most adorable face you’ve ever seen?!  The combination of her blonde hair and red lip is just everything to me.

I loved the oversized, Urban Outfitters-ish look she’s rocking. The denim jacket and large bag are perfect touches.

What do you guys think of these SoHo strollers?
