anyone that knows me knows i love a good black on black outfit. anyone that wears black on black frequently knows the difficulty in making each outfit look uniquely its own. 

ever get that feeling?

i had been looking for the perfect structured black pant for a while and alas i found it in j.crew (not to mention the flat mules as well). pairing it up with an oversized structured sweater completes the outfit with a more modern twist - as opposed to a fitted top. the shoes provide an nice alternative for me who practically lives in sneakers ever since moving to the city and walking everywhere needed to be.

how do you wear black on black?

the past couple of days have been really magical having my mother and little sister (ahem... or should i say the talented photographer) in town. after a weekend of endless touristy attractions, shows, and dinners, i was genuinely sad to see them go. everywhere i went my sister kept quietly snapping away on her iphone the things that had inspired her the most. when i saw the pics, i turned and said they were really good and what her thoughts were in shooting me for the blog. and here you have it! part one of two that she took. can you believe it's the first time she picks up an actual camera?!

ps: can you tell spring is finally in the city? hoorah!
