Since the day I was born, my parents have always drummed in my head the importance of first impressions. I guess there was always this unspoken rule that the way you meet someone is how they’ll remember you. I’d always believed that to be true, until something changed my mind recently. Which in turn made me realize, why first impressions aren’t as crucial as they used to be.

Who’s ready for an October Outfit Breakdown?
Okay so I’m a little bit late on my outfit breakdown for the month of October — but I’m here y’all. I’m ready to share all the looks I rocked during a month that turned out to be tons of fun.
From going out to eat with friends, meeting new people, and visiting my Godson + his mom in a neighboring city… October was filled with a lot of high highs.
I love the color black. For one, it almost always looks good on everyone. Size, shape, and everything else be damned. & Two, it’s such a timeless color that does a great job of transitioning no matter the season. It’s for those two reasons (not to mention many many others) that I know black will always be a fashion staple.
I mean how could it not?
From wearing a little black dress made popular by the likes of the CoCo Chanel to dressing it up or down — black has the ability to go with whatever the attire calls for.

So the look.
I’m wearing a one shoulder crop top from NastyGal and vintage denim I thrifted! I always get questions on how I go about shopping for vintage denim and I’ve chatted about that a while back on the blog. Here’s the link in case you missed it — How I Shop for Vintage Denim.
I finished off the look with heels from here and my purse is from Topshop.
Now tell me this look doesn’t make having this color in your wardrobe a must.
I sure hope so!
Today’s post was short and sweet, but something juicy is on the way come Wednesday. SO keep your eyes peeled.

So the month of September is coming to a close, thank God. Not that this month has been bad, but more so that this month has felt unusually busy and prolonged. However, with the unusual business came outfits that gave me all the feels when I stepped out.
