Because Everyone Deserves To Be Respected.


I can't think of a better day for Double Denim. Today, April 25th is Denim Day. It's a great day to wear jeans with a purpose, support survivors, and educate yourself and others about sexual assault.

Too many women have been sexually assaulted one way or another and it's very, very far from ok. It is NEVER ok.

Hey Nubians, 

Relax. Refresh. Renew.

Hey Nubians, 

Trick or Treat? I'm sure most of you ladies are getting comfortable with the Fall season. Looking through your clothing and pulling out all of your light jackets and sweaters, figuring out what trends you want to follow, denim? velour? So many options. I just flew back to Las Vegas from New York and it's already getting pretty chilly out there. Vegas is slowly getting nippy too. 

Also let's talk Halloween! I LOVE Halloween. Probably more than Christmas. One of my favorite things to do besides going out to enjoy the fun decorations is staying home and watching retro Halloween cartoons and films. I like watching the friendly films such as Hocus Pocus but then I also like watching the more brutal films like Halloween/Michael Myers & A Nightmare on Elm Street. 

I think my style...

Hey Nubians,

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

Wearing Levi jeans, Old Navy jean jacket, Ash Sneaker Wedges, H&M alien beanie. 

I love Jeans! Remember when everyone was all over the double denim trend about a year or 2 ago? I still love it! I think one of my favorite denim brands is probably Levi Strauss & Co, they're such a good pair of timeless jeans. 



Below I shall entertain you with some fun and random facts about jeans.
  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.



You are next! I have a think for aliens ha ha. 




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. 


Cheers!

Is There Ever A Season Where Denim Isn't Appropriate? 



I was shopping around on the web when I dropped by http://www.simons.ca and saw this photo of a pretty lady wearing a denim jacket. All of a sudden it hit me how much I LOVE denim. It's just so comfortable and reliable.

Denim also has this all American feel to it... kind of like the girl next door vibes, it's classic. After the 4th of July passing by and having to read about Ariana Grande making rude remarks about America... I'm feeling a bit patriotic. You can also wear it year round which is a huge perk. There's vest, shorts, jeans, jackets, headwear, and even more risky items I probably wouldn't wear such a purses (though I might have owned one in my childhood). I often turn to red lips, a plain white tee and a nice pair of denim shorts as a chic go-to outfit Summer outfit.

Anyway, below see some lovely ladies in denim for your fashion and wardrobe inspirational needs. Cheers!



What's your favorite way to style denim?

Call is Cliche but I love wearing green on St. Patrick's Day...

Whether it's hunter green, leaves green, neon green... it just has to be GREEN. It's fun to look cool, stylish and comfortable on St. Patty's Day, especially if you're going to the parade. I've shopped around on the internet and was able to find some cute items I thought you should check out for your St. Patrick's Day beauty and fashion needs. Some cute and out-going items for you to get inspired by/try to channel/get the look. If all else fails remember you can always throw a bunch of green glitter and stickers on your face :) 


Rita Paid Headwrap from gla.MAR.ous.

Zipped Crepe Shirtdress from ZARA.

Maybelline 'Gusty Green' Plush Silk Eyeshadow Palette.


Arena Girl Gladiator Heels from Go Jane in Neon Green. 

Essie Electric Green.

Hudson 'Nico' Skinny Stretch Jeans (Graceland Green) at Nordstrom.



Now go have a few nice cold beers for me! Be safe and have a great time.

Hello Nubians,

Oh Summer days, The season has just begun and it's already been quite a fun season. Sun shine, cold margaritas, sitting by the pool... So good.

Anyway, it's always fun to dress up to and I happen to love high waist clothing. Pants, skirts, shorts, I feel it compliments women's figure by hugging your waist so much more than items that fall on the hip. Below I put together some cute outfits featuring high waist denim shorts, patterned pants and a adorable polka dot pleated skirt.

Hope these inspire you to put some cute looks together! They're colorful, fun and fashion forward.


Here are some #selfies I took earlier this week wearing my high waisted leggings from Zara and some cute studded loafers.

Hello Nubians,


"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." -Martin Luther King, Jr.

As some of you may know, I'm living in the West Coast for a while in Las Vegas. It was a fun move and I'm excited for the new business ventures and possibilities that have been coming my way. I was born and raised in NY and I think a big mistake people make in their lives is getting too comfortable! Moving could be scary but sometimes you have to take a leap of faith.

The last few days besides getting work done, I've been walking around and getting to know the town a bit.


I wanted to be comfortable but look cute (duh). Above I'm wearing a pair of Levi Jeans paired with cute little bow flats from Express clothing. I picked the top up at a random boutique and I don't recall the name right now but how rad is it?! I have a thing for lion, tigers, and cheetahs on clothing, the fact that it's colorful makes me enjoy it even more.

I styled my hair in a fancy little side braid because it's hot as hell out here and it's easy to put together... there's a lot of elegance in a braid.


I was starving the other day and bumped into Earl of Sandwich which I used to love to eat in connecticut. I'm not sure what I enjoy more, the sandwich or the golden wrapper. Presentation is everything.


I received this girl in the mail a few days ago. Love this Mint Julep Lip Butter by the Soap and Paper Factory. When you open it up there's a little mirror inside. It makes my lips feel so soft and moisturized so it def comes in handy with the heat here. A bonus to the lip butter is that I love the packaging as well! I mean seriously gals, How cute is it?!



Weakling for Froyo. 




Above is an outfit I wore on a weekend out. It's a very... Sweet Valley Weekend inspired look.
Varsity Jacket from this awesome little rockabilly store called ENZ NYC in St. Marks, Jeans for American Apparel, top and shoes from Forever 21.

So what's new in everyones life? Any fashion trends that you're excited about? Taking any leaps of faith soon?
