A NOSTALGIC OUTFIT INSPIRED BY MICHAEL JACKSON

April 20, 2022

What I’m Wearing
Shirt| Pants | Loafers

During his prime, Michael Jackson, aka the King of Pop, was a natural in front of the camera and on the red carpet! We couldn’t get enough of his flowy shirts, bedazzled glove, and leather penny loafers. In one of his most iconic music videos, “The Way You Make Me Feel,” Michael donned a tucked-in collar shirt with a solid white tee and pants. This look is just as popular today as it was back thirty five years ago. That being said, I took a lot of inspiration from Michael with this featured look. Note – I didn’t have a silk, navy shirt hanging around. So, I opted a purple one instead. So, how do you feel about this particular look? Feel free and share in the comments section below.

How to Thrift an Entire Outfit Part 4

March 31, 2022

Filed Under : My Style

Hey everyone! If there’s one item that everyone needs in their closet to this spring, it’s jersey shorts! Whether you prefer yours slightly above the knee or three inches in length, jersey shorts look great when worn with the right top. Lets take a closer look in full detail below:

OUTFIT #4

Sweatshirt

Fun Fact – you can find brand new pieces at the thrift store. I found this H&M sweatshirt at the Goodwill, and it was brand new! The price tag was hanging from the sleeve.

Shorts

Jersey shorts are super comfortable in General! In this case, the elastic waist makes for a loose to tight fit. It’s length is also a bonus. I usually like my shorts way above the knee, but these are a great length. Bonus – I only spent $3 at Goodwill. Such a steal!

Enjoy,

Review – You Go Natural (YGN) Halo T-Shirt Turban (Ash)

March 29, 2022

Filed Under : Grooming

Hey everyone! I’m back this week to announce my latest collaboration with You Go Natural (YGN). In a previous blog post, I reviewed their open shirt jersey turban found here. Today, I’m trying on the highly anticipated, halo t-shirt turban from YGN’s spring/summer collection.

When you get a chance, check out the full review below:

Product

YGN’s latest collection features the latest hues and colors (With an updated design) created specifically for men. It’s tight fit is ideal for keeping all your natural hairstyles in place. Since I’m manipulating my hair a lot this season, the lightweight turban is the perfect option. Bonus – The infinity loop is lightweight, comfortable, and adds for a stunning finish.

Packaging

Similar to the previous YGN product I reviewed, the turban arrived in clear bag with the YGN logo printed across the front. The bag has a zipper top closing, which prevents the turban from falling out.

Value

This turban is being sold for $35 (The average price as most of their products). If you have a few bucks to spare, its worth the purchase.

Review

YGN’s headwraps and turbans and headwraps are pre-tied (That’s their selling points). Since I’m always in a rush, I don’t necessarily have two to three minutes to sit down and tie a turban. The pre-tied options usually accommodate my lifestyle better. Plus, there are many colors to choose from. If you’re like me and love a few options, you won’t be disappointed.

The Good: I love supporting black owned businesses in general. That in itself is a great selling point for me. Plus, I love the turban’s lightweight jersey material. Plus, it absorbs the moisture from all my hair products as well (Like a t-shirt). Don’t get me wrong, you’ll see the stains, but they will dry up eventually.
The Bad: Sometimes, it’s a little hard to get the infinity loop to how I want it to look, especially after wrapping it a couple of times (It could be me being critical). Other than that, it’s perfect!

Overall

I give this product a 5 out 5. I can’t wait to try on a new product!

How to Thrift an Entire Outfit Part 3

Filed Under : My Style

Happy Spring everyone! We’re going to keep the ball rolling with another ensemble from the “How to Thrift an Entire Outfit” series.

Today, I’m rocking this 90s inspired look! It’s giving TLC meets *NSYNC with the oversized, silk shirt. Lets take a closer look in full detail below:

OUTFIT #3

Shirt

Every once in a while, I can find a silk shirt at the Goodwill (One that actually fits). Luckily, I found this one handing in the women’s section, although it’s a men’s shirt. Remember, always check the buttons! Men’s shirts usually have buttons on the right side.

Pants

Let’s be honest, balloon pants are my go-to this year! I love pairing them with some of my favorite button-downs, sweaters, and baggy t-shirts. Remember, I love a 90s aesthetic!

Be safe,
