Sound Cloud

Hey Y'all



As I'm sure you've come to notice, I am poet who writes and creates her own pieces. I want to make sure I keep my skills as up to date as possible and am constantly creating new work to hopefully one day publish into a book. I recently started a Sound Cloud to help motivate myself, as well as keep you all up to date on my work. I'll try to record something new or old either once a week or every other week. So if poetry and spoken word is what you're in to or you'd just like to listen please check out the page (link is below), let your friends know, and stay tuned for new recordings :)

Well until next time...
Peace,
Dij


The Art of Thrifting: Men's Fashion

     Recently I took a trip to New York City to visit a close friend of mine, while there of course I made it my mission to hit whatever thrift stores I could find my way to. I mainly hit thrift stores in Brooklyn, where I was actually staying, and was able to find all that I could possibly want and ever need. I was easily able find some dope pieces for myself, my dad, and my brother, who's recently gotten into the "Silk & Print Shirt" phase that's going on now. I picked up two unique pieces that I knew would suit him perfectly. Once I got home, I asked him to let me style the shirts for him, so he knew exactly how to wear them without over doing it (because the print in itself was already doing the most on its own). I put together two looks for him to choose from, all surrounding the the shirts themselves, the first being more casual and the second being a little more dressed up. Check out the two looks below:

Look 1:






Hat: Gift/ Glasses: JcPenny/ Shirt: Goodwill/ Pants: Gap/ Shoes: Converse Store
Look 2:








Glasses: Forever21/ Shirt: Goodwill/ Pants: Gap/ Shoes: Nordstroms Rack/ Watch: Macy's

More looks to come! If you have any questions or would like to know how I put these looks together, feel free to comment or contact me. Well until next time, beautiful people, Stay up & Stay Positive...

Peace,
Dij :)
