The process of styling a dress is a lot easier than it sounds.

Today, our homegirl Mora has taken a minimalist approach when styling her favorite striped dress. For starters, the dress itself is pure fun! The red, yellow, blue, and white stripes add a vibrant touch. In addition, the puffy sleeves are very retro. Mora is definitely giving us that Aunt Viv look.

With the addition of her favorite black wool-blend coat and green pumps, Mora is looking like straight out of a JCPenney Catalog!

Ladies, did we forget to mention that her dress was purchased from a second-hand store? 2525 Vintage to be exact. That’s a win if you ask us!

Today, Brandi shows off her latest look. Today, it’s all about the pop of color. While wearing her favorite hue of purple, Brandi dressed down her a knit cardigan sweater with a solid color tee and distressed jeans. This is the perfect look for any young fashionista.

For a finishing touch, Brandi slid in to her favorite suede, zip up booties.

Street Style: Denim Jacket

Poncho: Vintage |
Pants: Vintage |
Shoes: Nike

When she’s not consulting her make-up clients or focusing on her school work, Tomarra from Flyy Theory is adding to her ever-growing collection of trifted clothes.

For this post, Tomarra decided to show off her eclectic sense of style in  her fully custom denim embroidered jacket from Good Samaritans. While the jacket itself is second-hand, the stitching is completely hand crafted. You can’t beat that, right?

To add some flavor to the mix, Tomarra decided to style her denim jacket with a traditional baja hoodie, camo capris, and her brightly colored Nike sneakers. The denim and camo prints are complimented by the orange sneakers quite well. Simple, but stlyish to say the least.

Overall, great job Tomarra! We appreciate a woman that knows how to keep it casual with little to no effort.

“One color that I promise looks good on anyone is purple. Whether you are pleasantly pale or chic and chocolate brown, purple works due to the mixture of cool and warm undertones.” -Dyandra Raye

Purple is easily one of the most underrated colors in the fashion world. With just a hint of purple, you can make your entire outfit pop!

Take, for instance, Dyandra Raye’s “Passionately Purple” look. From head to toe, the color purple was utilized to it’s full potential through her lavender trench coat, floral printed body suit, and bandage skirt.

Dyandra Raye had this to say about her look, “The main purple tones are this BCBG bandage skirt from years ago and a recently purchased silk lavender trench. I never originally thought of pairing these two pieces together, but when I snagged this bodysuit fork BeBe for Howard’s homecoming, these pieces became a cohesive ensemble.”

Way to go Dyandra Raye! You’ve out down yourself yet again.

Be sure to follow Dyandra on her journey here.
