Aeropostale

LAST POST ON THIS BLOG! Aeropostale is a brand that's pretty well known these days, just a little bit lower than Hollister and Abercrombie, but still a pretty nice brand overall. Their prices can be very fair, especially with the 30% off promotion this weekend. Here are some recommendations: Women:

Macy's Flower Show 2014

There's only a few days left till Spring, and that means that the Macy's Flower Show 2014 is now officially here! The flower show lasts from Sunday March 23rd to Sunday April 16, giving you two weeks to view the timeless beauty of flowers. The theme this year is a "Secret Garden". This year, like every other year before, Macy's has a wonderful collection of flowers for your eyes to enjoy. Go to Macy's Herald Square to check it out! And if that's not incentive enough for you to go, I went last year with my family, and each of us came out with a free $10 gift card, just like every other visitor! It will be worth your while!

Streetwear- Karmaloop

CALLING ALL YOU HYPEBEASTS ALL THERE:
         No, I don't mean it in a negative sense. I've just recently explored the world of streetwear whether it be from Supreme, Diamond, Pink Dolphin, Dope, and to be honest some of their apparel looks pretty awesome! While now we tend to label people who wear these pieces as hypebeasts, there's a reason these brands are popular, not just because they're hyped but because they're comfortable and some of them are just plain cool looking! If you're ever looking to buy streetwear anytime soon, check out Karmaloop, a premier website that sells streetwear. Email me at sxdiamonds@gmail.com for a special 20% off discount code

Looking Forward to Spring

It's been an awfully long winter this year, with a million blizzards heading to the Northeast and the Chancellor giving high school students school on days with snowstorms. Finally, Spring is approaching us. For your fashion choices this spring, I recommend having a t-shirt and a warm cashmere cardigan. Try animal prints and tie-dyed t-shirts for some extra versatility! Throw on some skinny jeans, shorts, vans, or sneakers, and you've got yourself an outfit ready for the warmer weather! For the accessories, I would recommend wearing a necklace or ring from 3V07 to truly make a fashion statement. For an extra classy look, try carrying a leather bag from Polo Ralph Lauren or J.Estina.

Leopard Jacket in Urban Outfitters

Hey guys and girls! This is actually the first time I've been to Urban Outfitters and now I know why it's a lot of people's favorite store :) They sell the stuff that's latest in the "hypebeast" fashion, whether it be pocket tees, snapbacks, vans, etc. I was actually planning to go to Zumiez to check out their stuff, but ended up in Urban Outfitters because it was on the way there. While amazed at what they had to offer at the store, my eye immediately fell on the printed leopard track jacket which was reversible and had a unique pattern. Lesson of the Day? Don't let other people decide your fashion sense and don't be afraid to step out of the ordinary at times!

Winter Essentials: Winter Jacket

Brrrrrrr. It's getting colder outside these days and there's been a snowstorm in NYC just today. The temperature has dropped below my age this morning! If for the past few weeks you haven't put on your winter jacket yet, now would be the perfect time to do so. And if you're still looking for a winter coat, let's explore the various variety of winter jackets. You can pick from the classic puffy jacket, trench coat, pea coat, or the more modern leather jacket.

 a) Puffy Jacket- Classic coats that keep you warm with layers of material. Can make you look bulky at times but a must have for low temperatures!
b) Trench/Pea Coat- Long coats that are popular in Europe and match well with formal attire; look especially good when you're tall!
c) Leather Jacket- try out the tough guy look! biker style faux leather jackets!

Amazed!

Was taking a look around on Shopstyle and ran into an amazing abstract piece by Calvin Klein!

Brand Recommendation: Uniqlo

Hi guys! So today I'm recommending a brand, Uniqlo. I shop at Uniqlo sometimes and own a sweater, dress shirt, a flannel shirt, a blazer, and heat tech sweaters from there. Uniqlo is a average brand with affordable clothing. They offer clothing with a chic and urban feel to it. You can find many different products there, ranging from activewear such as hoodies to formal pieces of clothing such as oxford dress shirts, blazers, and suits. Their winter jackets come at the affordable price of $79! Check out their flagship stores in Soho and 5th avenue in NYC! br />

Winter Essentials: Scarves

Scarves can make or break an outfit. It's a totally essential piece of clothing that would be a perfect addition to your wardrobe if it isn't already. Not only do they keep your face protected in this cold weather, they can also be a fashion statement and keep your neck really comfy. Try out a taste of luxury by getting a cashmere scarf! Check out these recommendations from Michael Kors, Verscace, Uniqlo, and H&M!
