Channeling Chanel

Channeling Chanel

I discovered Chanel around the are of 13, and ever since then she has remained an icon in my eyes. Assertive and confident, she had the type of confidence that was hard to shatter!

I always use the phrase "I'm channeling Chanel today"...not because i'm wearing Chanel {i'm still gathering my pennies for the day I can be a Chanel Bag Lady!!} but because my favorite color combination is Black & White!! There are so many ways to channel Chanel without having to wear the coveted label!!! These are styles that speak to who I am...classy & fabulous!

I love wearing color, but I am so happy that fall is here and I can rock all the black & white!!! I don't do fashion. I AM fashion!

Word.

My Style-Noir

My Style-Noir


I am a true believer that you can NEVER go wrong with black! It is classic and can be done in so many different ways! My style can change from day to day, I love color just as much but as the weather gets cooler I tend to bring out the black a lot more...but I always manage to add a little pop of color!

Los Angeles Style

{side note: it's been a crazy year, in a good way! I hope to become more consistent with this blog because I have tons of ideas for it. A lot of the inspiration I get comes from the awesome blogs that I follow...let's hope the creativity keeps flowin!} 


I got the sudden urge to do a photo shoot the other day, so I hit up my girl (aka partner in crime) Justi and asked her if she could be my "muse". Knowing her love of fashion AND her love for being in front of the camera, I knew she wouldn't say no! I never get tired of capturing the L.A streets and I knew exactly where I wanted to take these photos! Seeing as how I work for a denim company like Celebrity Pink, it was easy to get some looks together that would fit perfectly with the urban backdrop I chose. 

How much fun is it for two girlfriends to spend an afternoon running around downtown taking photos! 

I love sporadic day like these where we can have mini adventures!...It's great to have a friend like Justi who is spontaneous like me! The images came out great, thank you very much :)
