Vogue Circa 1992

….Please excuse my long absence from the blog but sometimes a small break is always necessary. It's finally starting to warm up here in New York so I felt like it was the best time to dawn this black and white Ann Demeulemeester jacket that I scored recently while thrift shopping.I'm a little obsessed with the black and white print detail and the bell sleeves(perfect find).

 I've recently been scanning through old Vogue magazines from the late 80s to early 90s and was so fascinated by the editorial shots that were captured around that time. I decided to center my shoot around the same theme and I came up with my modernized interpretation of old Vogue. There's one particular shoot from Vogue 1992 that featured Naomi Campbell, Tyra Banks, and Bevery Peele that stood out the most to me.  photo EFINAL1_zpsbzmfaaj3.jpg

…. a bit jaded

 photo IMG_0187_2_zps925c64b3.jpg Its hard to believe that we're at the beginning of a new year. I'm thankful to God and all of you for your continued support as I continue to evolve. I hope to connect with some amazing people this year. learn more about myself. Set goals. Follow no rules. Grow deep in love. stay humble. Travel. Explore, and have no regrets.


 My latest post was inspired by old New York street culture. After living in Brooklyn for over a year now I realized that I draw a lot of my inspiration from the people and things around me.These photos
were shot in the Crown Heights area of Brooklyn.  photo IMG_0174_zps005b6b64.jpg

SOUL OF THE '70S

 photo DSC_0362a_zpsae6ad2be.jpg I shot these photos last week before heading back to Texas for thanksgiving. I've been slightly obsessing over hats since I cut my hair a couple of months ago. I'm convinced that hats have become the coolest accessory...  I can't wait to share more about my trip to Texas and some new projects that I'll be working on in my up coming post.

I recently had the opportunity to be the leading lady in a music video. Just a few shots I snapped after wrapping up filming. I can't wait to share more once the video is released. I'm wearing a vintage No Label dress, Margiela cape coat, and my favorite Zara sandals.

VINTAGE JUNYA WATANABE

 photo DSC_0342_zps3be636b9.jpg

For as long as I can remember I've always been a huge supporter and consumer of vintage clothing. Nothing makes shopping more interesting than finding a dope piece from one of my favorite designers. I've been looking forward to posting this RARE Junya Watanabe dress for some time now. The sudden change in temperature has me re-adjusting my wardrobe and trading in my crop tops for chunky turtleneck sweaters and leather biker jackets.
