New York Fashion Week is in full swing and I’ve been attending my fair share of events. Essence Magazine held their Essence Street Style Block Party in Dumbo again this year, so I rolled through with my squad and the little man. We arrived later in the afternoon and didn’t get to venture around too much due to the rain, but it was still fun times per usual. We always have a good time wherever we go.
I kept it simple yet chic in this crop top that I purchased earlier this Summer from a store called STEPS here in NYC, and a pair of vintage palazzo pants that I purchased a few years back from Etsy. For a long time I couldn’t get these pants past my hips so go me for dropping some pounds… about 15 to be exact 😉 I gave the look some character with my Fauxhawk and Wet ‘n Wild Megalast Lipstick in Vamp It Up, which is one of my Fall Lip Picks.
Y’all see how big my boy is now?! I still can’t believe it.
My cuz Keina and the little cuz, her son Jo. These kids are growing so fast. I swear it seems like she just had him yesterday, now he’s in Kindergarten.
Keina & Jo with our homie Ron Bass.
With my cuz Mo… we always end up being color coordinated without planning.

I didn’t stay until the end since I had another event to attend. Stay tuned as I’m going to tell y’all about that one next.
