Kendall Miles Wrap Around Sandals
Kendall Miles Wrap Around Sandals
Credit: Kendall Miles"I call these my Carrie Bradshaw shoes. I put them on and I feel like I'm transformed for the night. I feel like I am definitely that girl in these shoes. What I love is the price point is so entry level, like contemporary but luxury. I'm still young and figuring out how to accessorize and purchase things that make sense and obviously still makes me feel like a luxe woman. I feel like this shoe is a happy medium. I still feel insanely expensive and rich, but I'm not breaking the bank."
Veert White Gold Flower Earrings
Veert White Gold Flower Earrings
Credit: SSENSE"I've been friends with the Veert founder, Julia, for a long time and I've always been an admirer of her style. She's fantastic. When it comes to jewelry in particular, I love a statement moment and these definitely do that for me. I feel like my day-to-day power look is very basic on the top level. I'm in my leather blazer, white T-shirt, and denim or a leather pant. Then I'm putting on a statement boot or a statement earring. My nails are an accessory in themselves and then my rings, my jewelry, and my hair are statement moments. So I love an easy thing that I can throw on and bring a look together that makes it look like I did more than I actually did, like these earrings. I'm always getting compliments when I wear them."
Topicals Slather Exfoliating Body Serum
Topicals Slather Exfoliating Body Serum
Credit: Topicals"All of Topicals' products work well. When they first developed Slather, I was lucky enough to sample it beforehand and immediately was able to see results in my skin. It's become such a crucial part of my routine. I use it every single day under my moisturizer. It's done so much for the texture of my skin [...] it's kind of been my Holy Grail!"

Good Weird Cold Brew Under Eye Cream
Good Weird Cold Brew Under Eye Cream
Credit: Good Weird"I use this pretty much every day. As a girl on the go, I'm up late and I'm up early—first one in, last one out. When it comes to my routine, I may not have time to put a face on or I might only be able to do some concealer. This is so easy and quick for me and it makes me feel like I actually did something for myself. Usually, when I jump up in the morning and I'm drinking water, I'll throw this on. It just helps revitalize me and bring me back to life!"

Fidan Novruzova Black Square-Toe Boots

Credit: Fidan Noruvzova"I think a square-toe boot is just so badass. I think the first person I saw these boots on was Bella Hadid. She had a black version of these and I was immediately like, 'yes.' I did a little bit of digging and I saw that they had these, and there was no doubt in my mind. I knew I had to have them. This has become one of my everyday boots. I cannot walk around without getting sort of compliment on them because they're so different, from the square-toe to the shape of the heel."

Theophilio Maxi Leather Skirt
Theophilio Maxi Leather Skirt
Credit: Theophilio"I absolutely love this skirt because it's so nostalgic. My day-to-day mood board is very late nineties, early two thousands kind of aesthetic. I love long skirts and I feel my sexiest and coolest when I bring these styles back into play. Whether I have it in leather, whether I have it in denim, it's just a no-brainer to me."
"This was the first lip color that I ever really played around with and fell in love with because of my mom. She would wear this and I would play in her makeup.
"I kid you not, I've been wearing it for as long as I can remember. I wore it to prom! It is truly my go-to color and I genuinely cannot live without it. It's also just special because every time I put it on it reminds me of my mom and being able to share the fact that this is our color."

Credit: Amazon"I take pride in being knowledgeable about fashion. I want to know what's been done and read about it from our legends. [André Leon Talley's] time on Earth is probably one of the most important experiences in terms of fashion and the industry. Being able to hear his story and his side of things...it's just wonderful. I loved reading The Chiffon Trenches. I felt like I came away from it with more knowledge. I feel like this is really important literature, especially being a Black woman in fashion, [and being] able to have these stories be told that really resonate with my experience."

Anine Bing Lili Tee
Anine Bing Lili Tee
Credit: Anine Bing"I elevated from my intern-days, Brandy Melville T-shirt. This is my grown-up version of that. I love Anine Bing, the brand, and the founder herself. I'm such an admirer of her and what she's done.
"I think this is the perfect crisp white tee. I love to pair it with my denim with a blazer over it. It is obviously a little bit on the pricier side, but it is so worth it. When it comes to my white T-shirts, I'm very uncompromising. I need one that is not going to fall apart on me because I'm wearing it like three times a week!"
Homage Year Jean-Michel Basquiat Edition Mini Mini Ova Bag
Homage Year Jean-Michel Basquiat Edition Mini Mini Ova Bag
Credit: Black in Fashion Fair"This is one of my clients that I represent, Homage Year. Luckily, I got the little sneak peek to get the bag sooner than everyone else. I love just the bag, the shape in itself. But this collaboration with the Basquiat estate makes it even more special. That pop of color, the red, the artwork on it [...] It truly feels like I'm carrying art. It's kind of a conversation piece when I'm out. People are like, 'Where did you get this? Tell me more about it.' I love that there is a story attached to the bag and the artwork that it was based off of. I feel like there are so many things to talk about when I'm wearing this bag."
Brown Girl Jane Perfume Sampler Set

Credit: Brown Girl Jane"I was reading through a list of brands you should know—I'm one of those people that actually sits and reads those. I came across this Black-owned brand, who I really did want to support, and I was literally in the market for a wonderful fragrance.
"At the time, I was like, 'Okay, I want to try all of these because I don't know what I'll love.' So I literally got this discovery set to try absolutely everything. This is kind of my everyday set now. I layer all of them, based off how I'm feeling."

Credit: The Noir"Like I mentioned before, I love a statement piece and these earrings are certainly certainly that. Thank God for Instagram—I came across this brand in particular there and I just fell in love with the idea of the spiral earring. It's another thing that I'll put on when I'm wearing a simple look to bring it over the top."
