MY STYLE FIX: TWEED WOOL COAT

New York Fashion Week is a day away and although I couldn't be more excited I'm dreading the wrath of Mother Nature who has an uncanny ability to show up at the most inopportune times, rearranging hair or major land masses at will.
Normally, I wouldn't really care since I'm so accustomed to her deviant, ratchet ways, which has left many a curls straight, and in my case a one way ticket to puffville. 
I'm used to Mother Nature's uninvited ass always crashing the party, but since I'll probably be wearing clothing far too inappropriate for the season let alone a major natural disaster, I can only imagine what will become of me should she pop in. 
Certainly I can and should bundle up for my own good, but when it comes to fashion I've never been accused of being practical and Fashion Week is no time to start exercising good judgement.
 So, I will proceed without caution and pray Mother Nature and her sidekick Old Man Winter will have mercy. Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3 *FYI Follow me on Instagram @ClosetFix for all the latest from New York Fashion Week

MY STYLE FIX: SHEARLING JACKET

It's clear that self appointed fashion Gods, must be comprised of really evil bitches, as only a person with no conscience would recommend clothes for women that require the removal of a rib to fit. 
Only a person with questionable moral judgement would recommend shoes that require the removal of the beloved pinky toe to fit comfortably, all while knowing such procedures aren't covered by most health plans.  
Believe me, I've checked to no avail hoping to have my Cinderella moment with the latest stiletto sky high, fuck me pumps, certified by those Godless creatures as the next it shoe.    
Shockingly, this season that coveted seal of approval have been bestowed upon black and white, which are both flattering on most of us, and not just those enigmas I like to refer to as models. 
Nevertheless, I take such recommendations with a grain of salt as in my world, black and white has always been in, and as far as I know color isn't going anywhere. So, I wear what I want, as should you. Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

REPEAT FIX: LEATHER MINI SKIRT

The leg baring mini skirt can do wonders for your wardrobe. Incorporating this shorter hemline into your Closet may be a bit intimidating. However, to offset or downplay the inherent sexiness of this Closet staple, opt for pairings that include more subdued pieces as seen here and here. Ranging in a wide array of textures, colors, and even lengths, the mini skirt which can be worn year round is a fun and flirty option that is sure to provide endless opportunities for a Repeat Fix. Below are two different ways I styled my mini skirt.
