Each day I will post my Style Du Jour pick: This section of the blog is where I will expose dope style from our favorite stylicious people. Fellas I promise this will not be only stylistas I will post some styilsto pics as well!!
Kate Lanphear is not a stranger to my blog. If you do not know who this woman is- she is the Style Director of Elle Mag (My fav magazine... all you Vogue lovers do not hate me... I appreciate Vogue- but I love Elle sooo much more)
Talk about All Black Everything!!!
I love the proportions of her fit. The cropped leather jacket paired with a long drappy tee adds a messy but sexy touch to her outfit. Skinny jeans and high ankle boots are always a go!!!!

Fall Fashion: The Lanvin Sneaker

Morning Fellas

Whats up.... Today I give you some fresh kicks for the Fall season.


Now available on Aloha Rag, Lanvin presents a pretty dope sneaker for the fellas this season.

The Lanvin High Top Trainer comes in a nice new jersey felt/suede version. I pay attention to detail and I like the sweet add of gold accent eyelets.

The neutral colors are dope- pair these bad boys with a great chunky sweater, or a pair of heavy weight khakis, or keep it basic with a great pair of jeans.
The luxury look of the sneaker can definitely be rocked with a dope Wool coat during the winter months or worn with a trench coat during the warmer days.
Either way- if you have the cash to invest in- INVEST fellas!!!! (These are pricey people)
South of your ankles will thank you ;)
Peace Out

Style Inspiration: Mixing Metallics

Hey People!

I was looking through my jewelry and caught a glimpse of one of my gold bangles dangling next to my silver necklace and thought it looked good together... I thought mixing metallics would be pretty cute. So I decided to give you guys some weekend inspiration, whether you are hosting a small girls only cocktail party, or heading to dinner for a first date, or just hitting the club... check out what i put together through polyvore.

Side note: Gold, silver, black, and charcoal... Great color combo.



Style Inspiration
Style Inspiration by SwagGirlChee featuring Halston


Joining these color ranges and highlighting your nails and lip with Red makes for a great weekend outfit. Don't forget to keep your color story going and mix and match your silver and gold jewels as well.

Let's discuss this fit:

The Halston pant with a drape and harem detail are soo in right now. I finally tried on a pair and I actually loved how they fit. *I purchased a jumper with draping and harem detail- i will take pics once I rock it* This silhouette might not work for everyone, but don't be fashion closed minded... try it out :)

Adding a long sequin coat add glitz and glam! I fell in love with the 3.1 Phillip Lim coat. With your pants you can add a sequin blazer oppose to a long coat- whatever works. It will still add great spice.

A great graphic tee to tone down the outfit, because your sequin coat (or blazer) will do all the talking. Maybe a drapy tee. You can find this kind of tee anywhere, from H&M to Forever 21 to American Apparel.

Metallic silver shoes to add shine to your grey outfit.

Well here you have it.... some Mix Match Metallic inspiration.

Enjoy your weekend guys.... remember don't leave your cup unattended... always have a designated driver.. and look fabulous!!!

PS: Fellas... once I master my illustrator skills I will get you some style inspiration shots! :)

Until Next Time

Fall Fashion: Hunter in Leather....

Hey Stylistas!!!


This Fall season Hunter has made the transition of exploring water resistant leather and suede boots. I'm excited... you guys do not understand, so many outfits changed due to the unexpectant rainfall and I have to opt for rubber boots.... I be damned if I mess up my leather or suede boots!
I heart these because they resemble the riding boot (Which is my fav footwear int he Fall and Winter months) and they have a small heel to give us ladies some height.

All of hunter leather and suede boots will be made in Italy and will retail between $225 to $525. Italy has some of the finest Leather. Great Quailty. Your fav handbag brands get their leather from Italy- hence the huge price tag... you have to pay for quailty people!!!

I love thee two looks-


Hunter was started in 1856 by Henry Lee Norris in Scotland. The company saw increased demand for its Wellington boots due to WWI and the iconic original Green Wellington boot was made in 1955. ----> Just a lil fashion history for you ;)


During the wet weather do you guys have a favorite pair of footwear you wear?
  • I have a GREAT pair of patent Leather wedge heel knew length boots from Aerosoles... YES!!! Aerosoles.. you couldn't believe it, but I get SOOOOO many compliments and "Where did you get them from" comments.... Perfect for the Rain
  • And I have a pair of signature C Coach Rain boots... I know GAG!!! but I was working for the company at the time... what do you want from me!!!??? ahahah (I do bust them out occasionally lol)

Until Next Time
