This LA Summer has been pretty pretty crazy so I've had to start getting a little more creative with my outfits so I can still show off my personal style in the heat. This look is all about texture, texture, texture and I love it. I enjoy experimenting with different materials and putting them all together to make something unique. The combination of sexy velvet and casual acid wash denim really help make this look stand out. For shoes, I went with a pair of black suede ankle boots. For accessories, I'm wearing my wide brim leather hat, that I'm sure most of you have seen before. For the finishing touches, I'm wearing a black velvet choker and my everyday silver rings. Once again, I need to give a shout out to my friend Sarrahh Alkutb for doing my makeup.

Black has always been an essential color I keep in my wardrobe, but it's sometimes good to add just a dash of color to liven it up. I am obsessed with this body suit. It's very sleek and sexy and the strap detailing adds just a little something extra. It looks great with a skirt, pants, jeans, or even shorts. As for the skirt, I fell in love with it the moment I saw it. It's a stunning shade of red and the flare gives it that romantic and whimsical feel. For shoes, I wore a pair of black lace stilettos. For jewelry, I'm wearing a pair of black diamond rose gold earrings and a black diamond rose gold necklace. For my makeup, I would normally list the products I used on myself, but this time I had the honor of having my face done up by one of my dearest and talented friends, Sarrahh Alkutb.
