Hey Nubians,

"I wish I could invent something like blue jeans. Something to be remembered for." -Andy Warhol

1. The very first jean was the indigo color because it hid dirt better than lighter colors. It's still the preferred color amongst people. 
2. Orange thread that Levi Strauss & co. uses for stitching of their jeans is trademarked.
3. Blue jeans were banned in public places in the 50s such as theaters, restaurants and schools. They were seen as a form of rebellion. 
4. Statistically, every American owns, on average, 7 pairs of blue jeans.
5. One bale of cotton can be used to produce 225 pairs of denim jeans.
6. About 450 million jeans are sold in U.S.A alone each year.
7. Iconic movies such as Rebel without a Cause and The Wild One first made jeans popular with teenagers, a demographic that was only starting to emerge as a distinct group in the 1950.

How do you feel about denim? How many times a week would you say you put on a good pair of jeans? I actually have to go shopping for some soon. 

Oh La La.
These thigh high boots are HOT to say the least. Very seductive. All the sequins will absolutely make these an eye opener. Finished with a pointy toe box and a stiletto heel, these are a steal at $57.47 at Go Jane HERE. 

Strappy Girl.
Feminine and edgy for the smart fashionista. Find these bad boys at ALDO's for only $62.99 HERE. 
Pretty In Pink.
These snake skin platforms will be like a party for your feet! Sure pink isn't red, green or gold, but girls should be able to wear pink year round! Find these at H&M for 34.99 HERE. 
Hope you found something you love or at least got inspired my dears!

What is your go to holiday shoe style? 

Hey Nubians,

I've been indulging the weather change and the chance it's given me to play around with my wardrobe. In Spring/Summer I love to play around with hats. Weather it's for the beach of for my daily outfits they're so much fun.

He estado disfrutando el cambio del tiempo y la oportunidad que me ha dado para jugar con mi vestuario. En primavera/verano me encanta jugar con sombreros. Mi gusta usar mis sombreros para la playa o para mis trajes diarios... son muy divertido.

This top from H&M is super cute! The ruffles move in the wind and it kind of gives me a sense of liberation for some reason ha ha. I got a good bargain for it. I was lucky to stop by H&M when they were having a sale and it was only $10. It doesn't hurt that I LOVE polka dots too, classic print.

Esta blusa es de H M & es super linda! Los volantes se mueven en el viento y me da una sensación de liberación por alguna razón ja ja.  Tuve suerte de pasar por H & M cuando tenían una venta y que era sólo $10. También me encanta el estampado de lunares, es clásico.

Hello Nubians,

There's something refreshing and dare I say sexy about wearing all white clothing. During Summer time it's always been pretty popular. Not only do you get to maintain your clean appearance, but it keeps you cool under the sun. It's classic and timeless.


I'm looking forward to putting together other all white ensembles.... I'm thinking white skinny jeans with a wife beater would look fabulous or maybe even denim cutoffs.








What's your ideal Summer white ensemble? 

Hello Nubians,

'Tis important to enjoy the NYC weather before it become brick city! You know, those days when you can throw on a nice oversized sweater and go and not need a million layers on to survive.

I'm not a fan of Winter but I'm a fan or what the transition to the season brings out in me. Lately for some reason I've been burning a lot of candles... eucalyptus, gingerbread, cinnamon, peppermint, so many delicious smells! I've also been drinking a lot of matcha green tea which I might make a post about later. This traditional green tea has great health benefits.


'Es importante disfrutar el clima de Nueva York antes de que se convierta en la ciudad del ladrillo! (super frío!) Ya sabes, esos días en que usted puedes ponerte un bonito suéter de gran tamaño y no necesita un millón de capas para sobrevivir.

No soy un fan de invierno, pero soy un fan de la transición a la temporada. Últimamente, por alguna razón he estado quemando un montón de velas ... eucalipto, jengibre, canela, menta, tantos olores deliciosos! También he estado bebiendo mucho té verde matcha. Este té verde tradicional tiene grandes beneficios para la salud.



On this day I decided to wear boot cut jeans. combat boots with a heel and a nice oversized sweater. The jeans were a bit loose purposely because I felt like wearing something comfortable and not too fitted. I through on the red hat last to kind of make the outfit pop.

En este día decidí usar los pantalones jeans y unas botas estilo militar con taco. Los jeans me quedan un poco flojos intencionalmente porque quería sentirme cómoda y que no me quedaran demasiado ajustados. El sombrero rojo me parecio bien bonito y era la pienza que mas resalto en el conjunto. 






Hope you're all enjoying your transition into Winter too and getting ready for Thanksgiving next week, gobble gobble. Cheers!

Espero que todos están disfrutando de su transición al invierno también y preparándose para la próxima semana para acción de gracias (el dia del pavo.) ¡Salud!
