I always have trouble defining my style to those who ask. A friend from my internship described my looks as very street-style, by which I was quite flattered! There was a very lax dress code at the agency,  but I still tried to stay as professionally casual as possible. I am glad that I was able to convey some sense of style even though I felt fairly limited in my work-appropriate options. 

Outside the workplace, however, I have been reaching for looser, freer silhouettes and really familiar color combinations. It's almost like they are monochromatic, but not quite. More ombre? I like ombre outfits. 

I used to really stay away from red on my bod, but lately, it's one of the few colors I gravitate towards, among a bunch of neutrals. Unfortunately I haven't found THE bright red piece to make my heart sing (the sneakers above are PRETTY CLOSE, though), but I am managing with variations of the color. I realized that with the gradual end of the nineties trend and the upswing of the seventies trend, maroon and brown are still sticking around as hot shades. This is a good thing because I enjoy earthy tones against my complexion, so it's a win-win.
