Mauvy & Moody

As some of you may have seen, this look was featured on Forever 21 this past week and I have to admit it was very humbling to see myself and the look I curated on their site. I hope all the places we shop can include more realistic representations of women (and men) in all body types and backgrounds in their marketing. I know if I saw someone like me when I was younger, or anyone different from society’s niche idea of beauty, I would think “If they can, I can too.”

As for the look's deets, I wanted to put together something mauvy and romantic with the pants Forever 21 sent me. I pulled that mauvy vibe from the pants and tied it together with an embroidered rose top ( a major trend this Summer season BTW) and these nude sandals. Topped it off with this ASOS bag and it came together effortlessly. Perfect outfit for dinner with your girlfriends. Even if you’re not really down for short sleeves, there are plenty of long sleeve embroidered tops circling the e-commerce world that would work perfectly with these pants and I've linked them below.
