Issues of Color: Why Can't My Camera See Me?

Photography can be a strangely frustrating thing to figure out when you have brown skin.

Steal His Style: Jidenna

I steal Jidenna's style 'Classic Man' in my latest video and I think I look pretty damn good... if I do say so myself.

Spring Blossoms

I was talking about the cold, windy days last time we talked and desperately wanting it to get warmer, but now that we’re here, I think we just shot straight into summer. This weather has me lost, confused, but mostly sneezing and feeling kind of groggy. We skipped spring, but not those hell-ish spring allergies unfortunately. *cue crying emoji*

Striped

I had wanted to do more full length shots, but since it was snowing, the camera kept losing focus. That aside, the pictures still came out really nice. I especially love how my camera created an out of focus background because of the white snow.

I've lately been trying to layer more and I think it's been a success, no? I don't go too crazy here, to be fair, but I generally am not that great at even this level of layering, so hats off to myself. My leather jacket has crazy short sleeves, so you can really see how interesting this brown top scrunches at the wrists.

I also filmed this look in my Fall Lookbook video on YouTube. You can see the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=255oUZlxWng&list=UUsVLW595FLr8-OuapJYcNyQ
