    Sunny Stripes

    Since Mother Nature has decided to keep acting like a heartbroken lover 🙄, I am just going to soak up some sun by proxy from my  birthday trip to Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico is such a beautiful place with so much authenticity that is very endearing and charming. I must say that this was one trip I thoroughly enjoyed ; the people, the drinks (story for another day), the language, everything was just perfect. On this day, we visited Paseo de la Princesa and Catano, its majestic beauty is something to behold (none of my pictures do it justice) but its juxtaposition of  enthrallment, awe and intimidation reins you in.

Personally, I have always loved the intricacies of the bohemian look as everything looks effortless albeit messy (I guess there is a point to prove there).Anyways, the beauty of the Boho is in appreciating the ease and exotic beauty of the gypsies and artsyes, hence I did my own take on the infamous classic bohemian look which…

    Bet on Burgundy…

    It’s Fall season or so we hope as mother nature still hasn’t decided yet. Typically, during this season, we all shelve our summery clothes and dust out the dark colored regalia to wear and style as we may please. I try not to totally conform to trends however, to execute my first Fall look, I resurrected (lol) my burgundy culottes jumpsuit because what screams Fall louder than burgundy. Bet on burgundy and you will not be disappointed. Moreover, burgundy compliments all skin tones . The culottes trend may have gone with Summer but if vamped, it can be a cool outfit again. In this shoot, I revamped my culottes jumpsuit into something…
