LoveBrownSugar Chic: All In The Pleat

I was playing around in my room taking test shots before snapping this outfit. Two of my recent finds. Two new wardrobe staples – the tribal top and the pleated skirt.

So happy I can finally get my hair up in a top knot. I used the sock bun method. Tutorial coming soon on how I do mine.

Hair & Makeup

I went for a shimmery eye and a matte red lip. Tomorrow I’m going to post a mini how-to on products I used to achieve this look so stay tuned.

Nails

Last week I got minx done at Channing in the City‘s 2 Year Anniversary Party. The lovely ladies of Nail Taxi hooked me up. My first time getting a full set of minx and I really like it!

The Look

I paired the look with my favorite jewelry and a pair of wedge booties.

Top: Forever 21 (similar one for under $20 here). Skirt: H&M (similar one here and cognac version here for only $64). Wedges: Forever 21 (similar here for only $40). Watch: Michael Kors. Wrap Bracelet: Linea Pelle.

  1. Like the bun a lot. I’m not too sure about that skirt length- it looks really short in one of your pics. Like not even enough to cover your bum
