FIVE FASHION FAVORITES

After doing a little brainstorming, I decided to simply discuss my five favorite fashion/everyday items, or season’s must-haves. So, without any further chitchat, lets dive straight into the topic! 

1. Chunky Chunk 
It can't be stressed enough that for this season (I wish should be forever) chunky-bulky sweaters are a must-have to wear million options. You can dress-up by complimenting them with a sparkly mini or midi skirt and heals, OR, play a lazy day by wearing them on your distressed jeans. It’s really a nice starting piece to compile any outfit!

2. Best Invention
Recently, for some strange (+) reason I am in love with anything that has pockets, better on front. Seriously, pockets are the best invention ever; from coins to cell phone, headphones to MetroCard, quick in-reach holder for little transaction receipts or a pen, and if you have nothing to keep…just tuck your hand/s in for a cozy warm moment! For me, a lose fitted shift dress, solid color, a pair of pockets = a perfect buy!

But anyone, with no pocket-craze, should at least gear out of their mundane t-shirt days and give a try to shift dresses, yes even in winters! They are such a playful, yet hassle free item that you can just wear it with leggings, tights, or any skinny jeans for a chic, casual vibe. Dress up with heels, and some timeless jewelry; dress-down by opting-for sneakers and a wrap…all set to hit the pavements!

3. Everyday Companion—A Top-Handle Bag
A time-tested fact: we can't live without our handbags! Now comes the worrisome pick-which-one phase. So, take my advice, and go with a single top-handle small sized satchel for your everyday errands. Give a break to your carryalls or totes and opt for a small satchel to radiate lady vibes! Besides being classic, it also give options to be held on shoulder, arm, or in hand. Furthermore, having a small bag means you have to be really organized, as there is no room for just-drop-in stuff!

I recently splurged on this color-blocked ZAC Zac Posen handbag. Confession: actually it was a love-at first situation but hesitated because of the price. Next day, after thinking it the entire night, I eventually bought it. No regrets, actually I am loving it even more! Its it-style, classic finish, leather material, straight cuts, neat sewing, silk interior, black-gray combination, matte metal shine, the drop of its top-handle and shoulder-strap…everything defines perfection. For now, it’s my THE must-have + favorite item. As soon as I carry it, even my dress-down moments effortlessly transform into neat put-together assembles, can’t ask for more!

4. Wrapped, All Around 
It's human nature…chilly breezy winters call for cozy wrapped options. Yet, one cannot wear the same wool coat or a puffer all the time, so dears, enjoy your sunny outdoor times while being all wrapped-up in a shawl wrap. I bought mine from Uniqlo in color-block pattern, simply because it widened my wearing options, as I could easily mix-and-match it.

Thus, don't feel stranded in your everyday coats and jackets, instead cuddle up and flow along with the tussles of your warm-wrap to enjoy light winter breeze.

5. Step In Style: 
Last but not the least, here comes the much-needed shoe discussion. Undisputedly, in this shoe-race, the classic ankle booties always end up as our old favorite winners. They are timeless, sturdy, and a very convenient option, in terms of fashion/wearability. Mine are by Franco Sarto in super classy leather with a worn-vintage feel. Also, their chocolaty color liberates me to easily test my style sensibility by complimenting them with most of my #outfitoftheday.
