MYNY

I'm super excited about my most recent collaboration, with Coach and their MYNY Poppy campaign. This officially made me realize I'm a New Yorker. I'll always be a Floridian, but I've been living here for more than three years! This feels like home, now more than ever.

I picked the Tyler Moto Jacket because I have been on the hunt for the perfect motorcycle jacket for over a year. Kismet! It's super soft and fits beautifully - and it has a teal lining. I love that I can push the sleeves up, zip it up or wear it open. Naturally, I paired it with an overtly feminine skirt and bows. As much as I want to think I can be Joan Jett, even in a leather jacket I am still a girly girl. But hey, if I can't be Joan, I'm up for playing her love interest in any future videos. Joan, what do you think? Do I have a shot?

What you're wearing is so right (it's so tight).

I was really hesitant to even post these, because I do think I missed the mark on this one. A little too tight, a little too short. Body-con is right! I felt so self-conscious that after seeing the photos, I took a trip upstairs to change into a more suitable outfit. I got a couple of immature remarks, which didn't help. But a big thank you to the kind lady who said I was "pretty as hell" - that made me smile:)

I bought this skirt at a thrift store (it was only $1!) and I figured I would give it a go. I'm trying to be more comfortable with my body and let go of the silly hangups I have. I just don't know if this was the proper route...maybe I should take baby steps? I'm the kind of girl who won't even wear a bikini to the beach, for crying out loud. Yet here I am pretending I'm Kelly Bundy, when I'm clearly more of a Kelly Kapowski*.

*In my dreams.
