Happy Friday everyone,

So for all of those wondering how I customized my leather jacket I wore for New York Fashion week, I am sharing a simple DIY for you. I did this in two days, and it wasn’t that hard as long as you have a design in your mind that you want to do. Figuring out my design was the hardest part. I couldn’t decide if I was going to paint my jacket or stud it. Well I when I went to Joann to find the material, my design went out the window when I saw this beautiful sequins pattern. From there it just came to me, and the constructing it itself wasn’t difficult. I was inspired to do a Frida Kahlo Day of the Dead design on the back because she was one of the most influential female artist, and to this day even after her death continues to inspire many young artist like myself. I knew I wanted to have an original piece to wear when I went to NYFW, and this was an easy customize leather jacket DIY that helped me stand out in the crowd. You can see the full outfit here! Check out my DIY below.

Today I’m going to share my last day at NYFW and the perfect fall outfit I took at the Flatiron and running around the city.

NYFW September 2017 Instagram Roundup

Hey everyone,

Sorry I have been MIA this past week on the blog, but I finally got back from New York Fashion Week. I completely underestimated how much time I would have on my trip to work on my blog. I was up at 6am doing photoshoots at 7am and wouldn’t get back from some events till midnight. Haha I don’t know what I was thinking in regards to time. But I definitely had the best first time experience ever, and I can’t wait to break it day by day everything that happened. I am still processing everything at this moment and will be posting the recap next week. Until then here is my NYFW September 2017 Instagram Roundup of all the outfits I wore.
