Shameless, presents...
Okay guys, it is autumn here in New York City.
And I'm bringing you a little look book on casual comfort.
And this time around, I've teamed up with TOMS, a New York favorite, and mine.
For every shoe you purchase, they give one pair to a child in need.
So, I thought, let me put together a look book inspired by 4 of their shoes.
I happen to own a couple pairs of TOMS. I love the fact that TOMS gives back, and honestly, their shoes are so comfortable.
Ideal for any New Yorker, on the go, on the move. You know what I'm sayin'?
I put together look books that show more neutrals; I find that neutral colors allow for more wear and versatility, without being as noticeable as a piece that's super loud.
My first look is inspired by their latest Nepal boot.
And what I like the most about this boot is that it's completely lined from toe to heel, from ankle to ankle top with this fleece.
So if you live in a cold city, i.e. New York, this is perfect! Perfect for city dwellers!
Just make sure you spray it with protective spray when it starts to get slushy and wet outside.
I paired this up with a classic sweater. And it does have a bit of a boxy cut to it, so I made sure to show off my legs in these grey Top Shop tights.
Then my favorite jacket! This is from last season!
Such a staple, Fall look right here; plaid, tweed, herringbone, all of that realness.
And this particular jacket is cut above the wrist line, so your sweater will peek through.
And this hat I got for $10 off of Canal Street.
Oh, and this bag! I love the size of it; I love big bags.
I can always stuff more stuff in there.
And I just accessorize with a gold bracelet.
That's pretty much it! The ultimate Fall look, and obviously I would wear this on a really cold Fall day here in New York City.
Make sure you guys check the description box for all the links on where I got these items.
For my second look, I don't know whats going on, but apparently Fall means grandpa realness in my world.
I.e. grandpa right here!
For this shoe I decided to pair it up with one of my harem pants.
It is loose, it is baggy, so to offset that, I wore this cardigan that creates length and the illusion that I'm taller than I really am.
Because these harem pants are not making me look tall!
And a tank top like this that's low-cut also creates elongation.
And this is my purse. I thrifted it from Salvation Army.
And the vintage feel really compliments the whole grand-daddy look I got going on.
I only have a couple hats, but that's gonna change real soon because I need to bundle up for this cold weather.
And my new favorite accessory right now are these bracelets from adorndaily.com.
I just like the color combination of the different metals used in these pieces.
And I really think this rounds out the look.
And lucky me got to meet one of you guys on the streets! And she is giving you Fall realness. Look at that look, with that bright bag! Go ahead, girl!

Okay! For look number 3, it's the same style but a different color.
This time, I wanted to play up the look. I decided to go with a full length cranberry dress that I got from Top Shop.
A little tip I learned about full length dresses: you can throw a knot on the side, and it all of a sudden creates shape that may not have been there.
and if your dress drags on the floor, this is an easy solution.
You may be asking yourself, why on earth would I pair these 2 colors together? I was able to tie it in with this scarf that I got from HM.
And it happened to work perfectly!
What I love about this scarf is it is round; I can wear it a myriad of different ways.
I can wear it like Grace Jones, I can wear it over the shoulder, a little cascading off the shoulder off one side.
And to take the look to the next level, I did add gold accessories.
And I really like this piece by Anci Decor that I got on Shop Lately.
This is a casual look, but it's almost taken to another place with the golds, so you can play up a look or play it down.
You can wear a denim shirt, but this has no shape, it is not giving me any life.
So I want to get that snatched waist. Just tie the ends together and all of a sudden you create some shape and dimension to your look.
And just roll up the sleeves, rocking the aviator shades, and you're good to go boo!
You is good to go.
Moving on! Look number 4.
I love wedges and I love comfort. And us petite girls like to fake the funk! We like to stay trickin'!
I am all about comfort. And it's so extreme that I prefer joggers over jeans any day.
So I'm rocking these pants; I got them from Zara.
And it's 100% cotton. Not quite a tight, and it's not quite a jogging pant, it's somewhere in between there.
But it's super comfortable!
And of course, I'm rocking my headphones. I use these to edit and listen to music in the alleyways of New York City.
These are by House of Marley. What I love most about the headphones is that they're made out of recycled materials, natural materials.
And they also make a conscious effort to make this world a better place.
Rocking my t-shirt by Con Artist, the art collective I'm a part of.
And this is my favorite jacket right now, it's from Zara.
What I like most about this jacket is it's 2-toned, and the sleeves are full leather, for all you vegan heads out there.
And of course, I'm always seeing familiar faces on the street! He's complimenting me on my lovely wedges.
These are pretty dope, I must say!
And I do have a love for vintage bags, so this one again is thrifted from Salvation Army.
I find a lot of vintage bags have a weird, awkward length, so simply putting a knot in it will make it shorter!
I have a thing with knots! I love knots.
Make sure you guys check the description box for all the links on where I got these items.
So that's it!
And let me know which look was your favorite, guys! Maybe even let me know which is your favorite shoe!
