real panache -dj

First off , let me just clear the definition of my twitter name haha .

panache [pəˈnæʃ -ˈnɑːʃ]
n
1. a dashing manner; style; swagger he rides with panache
2. (Clothing & Fashion) a feathered plume on a helmet

So , that's what panache is . Excuse me for always putting up what i dislike but, rarely putting up what I do . I've been holding out guys !

I get an issue of ELLE magazine in the mail every month and 1 of my favorite parts in the magazine is when they show 'Street Chic'. I love this part because it shows people who weren't dressed by stylists or given pre-chosen outfits. They walked out of their house looking this way and was influenced by themselves. The way I dress is taken from so much little things and I make a monster of an outfit :)

Madwell t-shirt, Antik Batik sandals, Alexander Wang sunglasses, Rebecca Minkoff bag

Usually , I'm not a fan of shorts that are a loud color. Since she paired the rest of the outfit with solid colors , it down played it. In the end this look came out pretty great. I likeee .

All black everything ! And she's keeping cool in the linen romper. The dog gives the outfit a nice touch so she doesn't look all that scary.

Vintage Dior shirt, Alice & Olivia shorts, Elizabeth & James shoes, Bebe necklace and bag

A different way to wear cargos. To dress it differently , pair it with a button up &bold accessories instead of a tee.**You can never go wrong with white nail polish ! I personally love nail polish.


James Perse shirt, Opening Ceremony skort, Aldo shoes, Bottega Veneta bag, Ray-Ban sunglasses, vintage jewelry

"Wear stripes on stripes for an updated preppy look"

I love it all . An oversized bag undertones the bright pink nail polish and flowing hair to balance out the outfit .

You guys know I hate leather leggings but , if you gonna wear them go all the way. Pair it with red lipstick , suede booties and a biker jacket. POW .

J.Crew jacket, shirt, jeans and bag. Madewell scarf. Franco Sarto shoes. Ray-Ban sunglasses

This outfit would've been perfect if she didn't make 1 popular mistake. The bag is lovely though ! I'm a sucker for big bags. Back to the mistake .. The boyfriend blazer and boyish hair cut are nice edges but, when paired with other big pieces like a big tee and jeans - you look like a dike. If she would've put on some fitted jeans , this would've been flawless.

This whole thing is perfect !! I love it and want it ALL in my closet. ** The bright colored bag makes the grey and blacks if the outfit not look dull.

The layering and accessories in this is all perfect. I have nothing else to say but "wow".


I love her funky hair, its so cute haha. The silver booties and ripped jeans make the outfit all the more edgy. The big black bag is adorable though, gimmie !


"Strategically placed zippers add edge to a preppy-chic ensemble"

Their shoes are just awesome. Black booties , you can't go wrong.
