Unitard: old dance leotard (try this), Skirt: American Apparel vintage, Stockings: American Apparel, Shoes: ALDO old (try this or this), Sunglasses: AJ Morgan from Oak old (try this), Ring: House of Harlow, Nailpolish: Sinful Colors Neon Fusion 60

TIP: Color blocking is a fun way to try one of this season’s latest trends. Walking around with one white leg too bold? Try choosing one bright colored accessory such as a scarf or bag and match it with a neutral colored outfit (think black, nude, gray).

TIP: RIT dye goes a long way. I had wanted a black mesh maxi skirt but could not find the perfect one. Instead I found this skirt from Free People that was originally an ombre pink color and I used RIT dye to get exactly the shade I wanted. Just be sure to follow the directions carefully. Keep in mind that the more saturated you want the color to be, the more packets/bottles you might have to use.

TIP: I love this vintage sweatshirt previously worn by and handed down from my Dad from the 70’s. He used to wear it while working on his car and explained that all the tears were caused by acid burning holes through his shirt as well as the wear and tear of his favorite sweatshirt. Not willing to meddle with acid? Yeah me neither. In this case you can just take scissors and cut tiny holes all over your sweatshirt. Then using your fingers rip open the holes to create a more natural tear. Lastly, throw them in the washer and dryer. When they come out of the dryer, they  should be frayed and worn looking!

TIP: As I’m sure you already know, polka dots are everywhere this season! Polka dot printed pieces are great to invest in because they look good on all ages, are timeless and are great for breaking up a solid colored outfit.

TIP: This men’s sweater vest is such a great accessory. You can pair it over a lace tank top during the spring or layer over a long sleeve button up during the fall. You can get the most out of your money with this sweater vest year round!

TIP: Call this a New Yorker’s uniform but when dressed in head to toe black, adding a colorful printed scarf can add instant chic and allure to an otherwise ordinary outfit!

I had the privilege of meeting fellow fashion blogger Alyssa Surrett of A-listed this past weekend when we were out sailing the Hudson River. I’ve been a huge fan of her blog since I first checked it out back in 2008 for not only her great fashion sense but her awesome instagram shots as well! Check it out here!

TIP: Add a chiffon skirt to your wardrobe. It will always come in handy whether you need to dress it up with heels or dress it down (like I did here with a sweatshirt). It can be worn from season to season and is a timeless basic you can hold onto for years to come!

A big thank you to Jeffrey Campbell Espana for posting photos of me on their official Facebook Page! Check it out here!

TIP: I’m loving cropped pants because they really showcase the fabulous shoes you can pair them with. Buy a cheap pair of faux leather (or real leather) pants and take them to your local tailor to have them hemmed and taken in for a great tailored, cropped pant (like I did here)!

Collared Shirt: vintage (try this), Sweatshirt: vintage (try this), Leggings: American Apparel, Shoes: Steve Madden old (try this), Rings: H&M/ASOS sold out (try this), Nails: Milani Black Swift and POP Lavender Love
