“She’s your Queen-to-be. A Queen-to-be forever” is a line from one of the funniest movies, Coming to America. Today, MyAsia combines autumn colors, animal prints, and royal accessories in her featured look.

Autumn is the perfect time to bust out your favorite tights. MyAsia agrees and had this to say, “The fall tights are also from Amazon as the weather is shifting these tights have a cozy fabric on the inside that keep you warm.”

In terms of color and print, this Philadelphia native has a lot going on, in a good way. She states, “Maroons, mustard yellows among many others are my fall “go-to” colors. They are the neutrals of fall. No matter how you rock them, they always come through for you.” That’s a good way to put things MyAsia. They work well for you!

Continuing on, she went with a maroon tunic from Amazon Prime. Simple, yet chic, this top accentuates the shape. MyAsia further styled her outfit with a printed scarf. “Cheetah print will never get old so when you rock it rock it bold,” she says.

Furthermore, this royal beauty also had this to also say about her look, “I was feeling like a Goddess rocking my short cut. So spicing up my crown was a must. Head jewelry straight from the Indian store.”

Overall, we love this look. It’s fit for a queen! Eddie Murphy would be proud.

Yesterday, I hosted my very first Instagram Stories Takeover with The Blog Bar. I had a great time planning and hosting the event for all of their followers. Honestly, I felt like the luckiest guy in the world. There haven’t been too many times in my blogging career where I have received such a great opportunity. Now, let me tell you, this one steals the show.

Since this was my first social media related hosting event, I took it very seriously. I even planned out my little script for each post. OCD much? Not at all!

If you take a look above, you can check out the outfit from the Takeover. With an old school Levis denim vest and my favorite distressed jeans, this look is a cross between the 70s, 80s, and early 90s. Denim on denim was very popular during all three decades. Although mine is tad more fitted, it still holds that nostalgic aura. For a little color, I threw on this short sleeve, flannel shirt from ASOS.

To accessorize, I simply tied a navy bandanna from the Beauty Supply Store around my forehead and slid some old bracelets from ALDO up my wrist.

So, how do you feel about this particular look? Feel free to share with us in the comments section below.

How Did I Wear…

How did I wear…tailored shorts?!

Today, we are going to have a brief discussion about tailored shorts.

Tip: Yes, I know it’s the last day of summer, but tailored shorts can be worn until the temperature drops below 70 degrees. Just in case it gets a little chilly outside, just throw on a cardigan or sweatshirt and you’re good to go.

Depending on your personal style preferences, you can either dress up or keep it completely casual in a pair of tailored shorts. If you are going for a more debonair look, try to style your shorts with a fitted button-up, sport coat, and leather loafers. Before you walk out the house, don’t forget your fun pocket square.

Tip: You can never go wrong with a tailored look. So when you find that sport-coat and shorts combo, make an immediate trip to your local tailor.

Now, I’m a huge supporter of casual looks, especially when humidity is a factor. If you’re like me and want to beat the heat, throw on a tank, tee, or printed button-up with your shorts. In terms of footwear, consider your favorite pair of sneakers, loafers, or sandals.

Tip: If you are ever in a rush, head over to your local mall. I’m sure you can find some “on the go” shorts for a reasonable price.

In the outfit above, for example, I styled these Forever 21 tailored shorts with a deep v-neck from ASOS, an old denim shirt from GAP, and a pair of penny loafers from DSW. This look puts the “C” in comfort and casual.
