SUPER NEUTRAL

I'm a big lover of contrast even when I go neutral. I beliiieeeve in contrast, even in the simplest of outfits.

What I Wore: Caribbean Blogger Meetup Summer 2014

For this meetup at Central Park I wanted to be neutral and since I have an obsession for oxfords right now I just HAD to wear these Franco Sarto ones. I'm not sure when my neutral/oxford craze is going to be over but I'm gonna ride this one till the wheels fall off. I'm also feeling button downs. I had to carry two bags because I took two sets of fabric for me and one extra person to sit on, ten bottles of chubby soda, my cosmetics purse, camera, tripod, book, etc.

Hair: Twist out

Hat: Joyce Leslie

Top: Uniqlo

Pants: Mandee or Payhalf(I can't remember)

Oxford Shoes: Marshalls

Tote: Moruka Designs

Travel bag: Goodwill, thrifted

Bracelets: by me, supplies from Michael's

Caribbean Blogger Meetup Summer 2014

When I attended Blogging While Brown NYC 2014 I met some fellow Caribbean bloggers so I had the idea to reach out to them as well as some more out and have ourselves a little meetup. Last Saturday myself along with Molina, Alysia, Adanna, and Kerry-Ann met up at Central Park for de shindig. It was nice havin' a gaff with the Caribbean ladies. We all blog about different things like parenting, Caribbean issues, health care, fashion, hair, etc. This was all about a few folks with Caribbean backgrounds; whether they were born there or born here to Caribbean parents; gathering to chat about being a Caribbean blogger in New York and really the rest of the United States. We also talked about stuff like relationships, parents, work life, school and a bunch of other stuff. Basically we had damn good time. We're definitely going to have another meetup.

I took the Chubby and Alysia took the mango.
