Going for the long run. Long lines have been so in this season that we're seeing lots of maxi dresses, shirts, skirts, and...sleeveless trench coats!

What's even cooler than Richie Cunningham is layering those long pieces. Got a long turtleneck dress? Stick a long vest over it. Long t-shirt? Don't forget that maxi cardigan. Obviously a killer outfit needs balance, so my boots aren't long otherwise I'd look so Amish. And I'm not ready for that yet. I went with ankle boots to balance everything out. May I

If you don't feel like wearing a skin tight dress, even though your long layer is pretty much covering all of your wobbly bits, this vest will also look just as cool over a simple jeans & tee look.

If this post still hasn't made you want to head over to buy a sleeveless trench coat, maybe this might help...mine is only $8.00 at Dresslink. You still here??

I was contacted by the insanely adorable Ayesha from Farfetch asking if I'd like to take part in a contest they have running...#FarfetchMonsterComp. Without even blinking, or thinking it through, I naturally said YES!! MY GOD OF COURSE YES!!! Because, I mean..it's Farfetch people! 

After I managed to contain myself, I read through to see what this challenge entailed. No nudity involved, phew! All I had to do was create a set showcasing a Fendi Monster piece. 

The Fendi Monster is arguably the most stylish and luxurious monster to date with its colorful fur, peekaboo or menacing monstrous eyes, and large fluffy eyebrows. (Sounds a little like me...grrr) It has evolved from its Bag Bug keyrings, to a complete range that includes rucksacks, shoes, jackets, and more. Even the classic Fendi Baguette has been embellished to show off its monstrous side!

So instead of just throwing around some random items in a set, I decided to create an outfit that I would actually wear...in public...with at least one of these "monster" items.

If I were going on a date on October 31st, I'd definitely be rocking this Halloween Chic look :)

Thank god sporty is in. I can't stress enough how in the good old days (I'm not divulging my age here but...) there was no way in hell a girl (or guy) could go to work in active wear. And look at me now. Not only am I in full on sweats but I don't look out of place! We all love a good pantsuit (*coughs* Hillary *cough cough*) to climb up that business ladder...but have you ever watched an actual climber?! They don't wear pantsuits.

 

I've paired this INSANE mesh muscle tank with striped detailing from Fabletics (can't get enough) with some cool sweatpants and un ultra fuzzy cardigan. Again, the black and white combo really keeps it classy. I wouldn't say I'd be as keen to wear this to work if there were a lot of neons involved. Guess how many compliments I got today though! This girl is slayyyying.

 

At ease, boys. I know you all want me but you're gonna have to get in line. The guy that put a ring on it a few years ago ain't too thrilled.

 

Today's the day I toot my own horn. Don't I look like a badass in this?! I mean, this is badass in a jar. One wrong move and I could potentially call my friends and we can all meet in the school yard at 3:30pm and throw some punches.

 

How to be a badass starter pack: 1. Backwards baseball cap (because too cool to wear it the right way) 2. Leather jacket (obvi) 3. Drop crotch army sweatpants (ain't nobody got time for feminine shit amirite) 4. New Balance sneakers because I'm sooooooo cool 5. Oversized sunglasses (stolen from the lead singer of the band).

 

Get this pack and nobody will mess with you while you're pushing your daughter on the swings. Because you're hood like that. Call me Don Corlena.
