Glam meets Hip-Hop
On my trip to NYC I was most excited to observe the most fashionable fashionistas sporting all the hottest new styles that they cleaned up with this past holiday season. All around the city I noticed that girls in the upper east side to brooklyn are rockin some swag. Enjoy the trends, my next post will be coming from Chicago.

The New Year Post
Happy 2014 everyone! Its hard to believe another year has gone by and that 2014 is here. I had the most wonderful year in 2013. Tons of great experiences, travel, and adventures. I thought to myself yesterday what would my resolution be? I could say the cliche of losing weight but honestly thats not my main focus. What I really want for my new year is to experience everything, take risks, love more, and just be happy. This is my year of hustle and making my dreams come true ;) Stay tuned!

Things you dont know about me
1.) I love the sims. I could play it for a whole day straight, its crazy.
2.) My baby brother is my hero, he is my best friend, and the love of my life. That kid and me have the most amazing and crazy adventures. Hes the best kinda friday night :)
3.) Im a sucker for old people, I could sit and chat with these folks for hours and I always love hearing their take on life, love, and happiness.
4.) I was a 2012 Macy's Fashion Incubator Associate Designer.
5.) Fashion for me has always just been a part of my life, and im forever grateful that I have been able to build my life around my passion but in all reality (or at least what I get paid to do) ... I just sell scarves lol.
6.) Compliments make me nervous.
7.) Rap life, gets me going. Music is my number 2, just behind fashion of course. I feel so inspired around music and I love being around creative people who are creative in a different way then me. It has definitely influenced my style and design aesthetic.
8.) I feel like (true to my gemini self) I have two sides. Side one, is a fashionista just trying to make her way in this crazy thing called life. Traveling the country, selling scarves, and being fabulous. Then theres side two, that is truly a big nerd. I like staying home, watching tv, designing websites, and hanging with my quite eclectic group of homies. Not many people know the second side but I heard its pretty cool lol.
9.) This year I have traveled and gone to many different places. By far my most favorite place to be is Chicago (New York being a very close second.) Chicago will always be the place where I grew up and shaped myself into the city slickin fashionista girl I am today, and for that... well im forever in love.
10.) All I really want to do when I grow up is be happy :)

This Holiday Rock the Red Lip
This holiday one thing every girl must try is the "Red Lip", its such a powerful and bold look. They say heels and red lipstick can put the fear of god into people :) I prefer a shade that has a slight orangey undertone, but every skin tone is different. I suggest going to your local department store and try out a few different shades to find your best match!

The Little Black Leather Jacket
This fall make sure that you have a black leather jacket. There are tons of style, cuts, and lengths these jackets come in. Invest in something classic because it will last you longer then a trendy one and for my fashionistas really pump up the volume by sporting one in lipstick red or cobalt blue.

Lexi's Top Fall Picks
Wondering what to do with all the "Fall" trends being thrown your way?? Well with every season comes tons of new "must have" items. I have picked my top 8 that I believe every fashionista should have in her closet.
1.) The Plaid Shirt- Dress it up or down or wear it layered or by itself... whatever you do, your options are endless. This is a MUST have for this season.
2.) Round Sunglasses- Making its come back and a harder shape to pull off. I suggest getting a great pair at like Target for 2 reasons. One they will look like designer shades and two... they will be 1/10 of the price.
3.) Military Style Bootie- Invest in something comfortable and flat. I do not suggest the platform versions of these for your everyday life. Luckily too, flats are in!
4.) Small Side Bag- Huge totes are a thing of the past. These chic little pieces are great in staple colors or make a great statement piece in a bright.
5.) Turbans- LOVE LOVE LOVE these. I suggest finding a Pink Pewter retailer and get your hands on these asap!
6.) Mixed Media Jackets- Super on trend. Make sure to get one that incorporates leather too! As thats a great way to mix a little harsh into our feminine looks.
7.) Nails that Pop- Of course we need color on our fingers this season. (It makes our jewelry pop more duhh!!!)
8.) Gold Watch- Enough said... just get one already ;)

After being MIA for far to long, I thought it was time to get back to my "Lexi in the City" self. As with everything time brings big changes and since my last post in APRIL... so much has changed.
Lets see since then I have...
-MOVED BACK TO MISSOURI (I know crazy right)
-TRAVELED
- Got a promotion
- Started a business
-Made some $$$
So to say the least things have been a little crazy but to be honest I wouldn't have it any other way. I have learned so much about myself, my talents and about who I really want to be. Ladies and gentleman I can finally say I ACTUALLY LIKE WHO I AM BECOMING. It took almost 25 years to get to this point in my life but things are starting to look up. I might eventually add some past posts of things that were really cool... or I may just pick up and bring you up to speed on whats going on now :)
So now its time to get back to all things fashion and fabulous. Ohh and lets not forget the LOVE part, because little Miss Lexi might have just met her match.
xoxo
