Fall OOTD = #cream

OOTD = #cream

I've always been obsessed with sweata weatha LBH. But nothing gets me more in the mood than this cream sweata I got when I was working at American Apparel in Downtown Brooklyn last fall. It's super big and ribbed and has long sleeves and Im rambling. It's a great sweater. 

I paired this great sweater with these cargo shorts I found at Beacons Closet in Bedford. The have a cool European cut and a lot of detail that I'm alllll about. I wore my standard black Nikes and Nike knee socks on the bottom.

I guess we're ready for you fall.

Because we're obsessed.

DIY: Men's Spring into Summer Vision Board

m- Every season Courtney and I try to throw together a fashion-inspired vision board for fun. 

True believers in the Law of Attraction, we think there is strong power in visualizing what you desire. Today I made a Spring into Summer vision board and I love it aleady. Living in Bushwick and working in Chelsea, has really kept me excited in switching up my street style every day. 

This is alwaysssss a fun DIY. Get stimulated.Get inspired. :)

Change in season, change in reason. 

This project is nothing far from the collages you've made your whole life. 

This just has a little more purpose.

 The Barnes and Nobel in Union Square is usually my retreat when Spring rain suddenly happens. I stop on the third floor to grab a few magazines, then head upstairs to sit and flip through. You can stay as long as you want. It's quite nice. Don't tell anybody.

 Today I decided to buy two magazines- I'm usually too broke to bring them home. #nyclife

1. British GQ Style: Spring-Summer 2014 

-When given the option, I always, always choose the UK edition over any other. The Brits are always ahead of the game. Plus the white-boy style is perfect for me. :) 

2. Fantastic Man: Spring 2014

-Fantastic Man is my favorite men's fashion magazine at the moment. The layout is clean and classic. Straight out of Holland, the fashion is European in cut and classic in color-pallete. Plus 90's Euro(trash) is super on trend right now. Super on point. 

Find something sturdy to paste your pics on. I could only find a box. 

The shape turned out cool though. I love crafts whew.

 Leo! Babe! Showing us what's good. 

Hawaiian print is the new plaid....sure. We'll take it. I've always thought vintage Hawaiian shirts are sexy when done right. Check out our blogpost from last Summer with Lori Wyatt in Charleston. The Hawaiian shirts that everyone is coveting are super deep and rich in color. I love. Will definitely have some more of these in my close soon. Thanks Leo. 

White. 

All white everything. This is what I need after a winter in a warehouse with no windows in 

New York. White. Sun. 

All white outfits are pristine and make you look freaking great. 

It's like a white box of natural of light is following you around all day to make you glow. 

And it's great for warm days to come.

 My Spring and Summer summarized: High waisted trousers. Short shorts. Vintage everything. Lightwash denim. White.

and mushrooms. 

Also going to try out this no-shirt, just bandana thing. Working on my fitness but I think I can make it work come summer festival time. 

I've got my plan down and Im excited about it. Now I'm going to start finding these things on the street. So fun to inVISION. If you think it, if you see it, it will be. Yessssssss warm weather. 

 Because we're obsessed.

Spring Prints in Bushwick

WE CAN FINALLY MAKE OUTFITS THAT WONT BE COVERED BY A JACKET!

And we are all kinds of excited about it. 

You know that DAY when the sun finally comes out and your skin can breathe in the sunshine for the first time? We live for it. 

We thirst for color...at first we thirst for colors as pastel and as bright as possible. Kealro broke out this pastel tropical wonder the first week of this year's spring. I LOVE. Vintage men's tropical shirts are super trendy...they kind of always have been a staple of American summer time but now the fun in the irony of wearing ridiculous tropical shirts have made them all the more prevalent on the streets.

This one reminds me of the interior of a Miami Subs. Just needs some flamingos.

Round glasses are baaaaaack. We're not mad at it. Kealro got these at American Apparel for $45 bucks. If you're broke like me, you can find super cheap, round sunglasses at anyyyy Chinatown booth or on St. Marks for like $10. Again, love the round. 

Kealro feelin it on the roof in Brooklyn. 

My Spring ootd was a little less color-inspired but certainly perfect for the 60 degree day. I finally broke out my semi-croptop I got at Topshop in London. The shirt has shrunk since I got it a few years ago BUT my high-waisted 100's from American Apparel totallllly has saved this shirt from retirement. It is giving me a Spring breeze I thought I'd nevah feel again!

Gold accessories duh. I want to be dripping in gold, you know? LOVE these sunglasses from American Apparel. Round enough and quirky enough and gold. 

Feelin it. 

Heyyyy Spring. 

Because we're obsessed.

Men's Spring Selects

It's spring time.

Put some color on and get out the house. 

Because the world is beautiful, remember?

Kealro is outside. In his Spring outfit of choice. 

And I in mine. 

Finally. Short sleeves. Skin. Sun. 

Living for Kealro's outfit today. Alex is wearing American Apparel's sear sucker Kennedy shorts with a beautifulllllll vintage shirt I found in Charleston, South Carolina. Feeling some Miami Vice/JFK vibes with this one. Happy with it. 

A great thing about the Spring is the fact that we can finally start making OUTFITS. It's a waste during the winter to put together a great outfit because youre just going to throw a damn jacket over it. Now we can play. American Apparel has some of the best accessories in my opinion. Super classic, vintage, and they come in every color imaginable. You really finish off an outfit with the right accessories. For Spring. Im excited to wear the lavender, baby pink, and straw colored skinny belts. 

Mint is always a coveted color this time of year. I love how Alex added a gold chain necklace. 

And purple socks. Nice one Kealro. 

And these SUNNIES. Round is in, gold is always in, and hot damn these are fab. 

My Spring #ootd is a light pallet of white, pink, and light denim with my Classic 100's from American Apparel and a vintage floral polo from a Goodwill in West Virginia. Yes....we went into a Goodwill in West Virginia.....

Finished my outfit with a forest green skinny belt from AA, my white Converses, and a gold necklace with a pendant bearing a picture of my 3 year old self. 

 THANK YOU Spring for finally showing up to the party. We've been waiting. Now the fun begins. 

Make some really kick-ass Spring outfits. 

Because we're obsessed.
