Hey, sis! Don’t get stuck in a fashion rut this fall and winter! Just because it’s cold outside, that doesn’t mean you have to be stuck wearing sweaters and Uggs. I have five style ideas to help you become a style icon in your own right.

Leopard Print

This has been an amazing year for animal prints! From Spring to Fall/Winter, this trend just keeps going throughout the year.  Rocking an animal print brings out the fierceness and boldness in your personality. Spice up a drab fall/winter wardrobe, by wearing leopard print this season.  For added detail, simply tie up your button-up shirts to show some skin. When you’re feeling the winter blues, throw on some shades to lighten up the mood.

Top & Sunglasses: Pretty Little Thing

Neon Colors and Jewel Tones

This fall and winter we’re experimenting more with color!  You can tell from my previous blog posts that I’m into pops of color and...yes, I love them year-round! I also love to show a little leg, weather permitting. Have fun mixing your jewel tones with neon accessories and shoes to add some pop to your fall/winter wardrobe.

Satin

It’s date night!  How are you showing up? Make a grand entrance by showing up in a sexy, satin dress.  Keep your date’s attention all night by wearing an emerald green dress and push the envelope with these sexy snakeskin boots. 

Dress: Shein

Shoes: Schutz

Moody Florals

Who needs to put away the florals in fall? Not us. Hot girl summer may be over but we’re still hot and colorful over here. When bae hasn’t called you in a minute and you’re all in your feelings, let your wardrobe reflect how you really feel by wearing a dark, floral pattern to express your mood. If the weather is a little warmer than usual, pull out your open-toe heels instead of your boots. It’s that time of the season to boldly step into fall with the uniqueness and Black Girl Magic everyone craves.

Comfy Outerwear

Baby it’s cold outside! But, does that mean you can’t be sexy? Absolutely not. You can still wear  a comfortable, puffer jacket and tease your bae with how you button (or unbutton) your coat. Pair it with stiletto boots, a chic pair of shades, and BOOM...you’ve just created a sexy vibe in a jacket reserved for comfort! You’ll be killing the game with minimal effort.

Jacket: Uniqlo

Boots: Schutz

I hope your summer has been great and full of love, excitement, and summer flings. I’ve been busy with a mix of business and pleasure. I’ve also been staying cool and sexy this summer with a new big chop! They say a woman who changes her hair is about to change her life and I wholeheartedly agree. I'm also excited about changing last year’s sandals for some new and exciting styles.

For me, three things matter when I'm completing a look for my clients and making sure they have the perfect pair of sandals: quality, versatility, and making sure they match their personal style. I want to share with you three sandals you'll want to wear before this Hot Girl Summer is over!
