WHAT TO WEAR: Cleveland to New York

We are back Style Guru’s and I am reporting straight from the homeland, Cleveland! I have headed here for the holidays and have been exploring the city in my free time. There is nothing better than Christmas lights, outdoor ice skating, and shopping during this time of year downtown. And let me tell you, Cleveland is on the rise!

This Fashionista’s home town is just south of Cleveland, but she spends most of her year in New York City where she goes to school. Her style is nothing less than what you would expect from a New Yorker. She bases her fashion sense off of her idol, Gigi Hadid, to create an urban sporty look. She is wearing a satin blush bomber jacket with a small embroidery that suites her skin tone perfectly. Underneath she is wearing a tight black turtleneck that tucks into her loose fitting patched denim to show off her figure. This type of look can be created on your own by sewing on individual patches of jean material that can be found at any fabric store. This way, you have free range for the size and color patches you can add to your bottoms to make them unique. Next, she is wearing some old school black on black Nike Air Force 1s. These sneakers can be worn year round and truly they will never go out of style. She finishes off her outfit with a simple mauve lip for the smallest touch of beauty.

When you live in a place like New York City, you are surrounded by so many different cultures and styles so it is important to find where you fit within those. Discover what inspires you and latch onto it.
