A BIT OF FLUFF

CYRENA MONIQUE CUSTOM NEW BALANCE 1

2015 came in with a bang, I was the star DJ at my Godfather’s NYE bash which gave me the thirst for more DJing shenanigans.  On the hunt for new Serato deck to perfect my craft.  Already been to London and back, bought new fabric to make some stuff to wear during London Collections: Men, and caught up with my friend Q in the process.

It all kicks off this Friday, quite looking forward to it.  I’ve never been to see the mens collections before, it’s about time seeing as I love menswear so much!

Here I’m wearing a sweater from OPEN, a new menswear brand full of basics for cheap, cheap, cheap!  I went a little cray before Christmas and treated myself to a few styles, this navy number is one of them.  I prefer the cut of a mens sweater on me over a women’s one; especially when it comes to a crew neck!

I am also living for my custom New Balance trainers, I wanted them as neutral as possible, and as I’ve already got a sh*t load of black trainers I opted for an all over beige shoe (something they don’t do).

Also got a lil something embroidered on the back!

CYRENA MONIQUR 2015 CHANGES

Ever evolving, ever making small changes for the better, change is good, it makes you feel fresh and revitalised almost, ready to take on the world.  There’s a number of changes I want to make for myself this year in order to grow and conquer.

See my list after the jump!

BLACK SUEDE

CYRENA-MONIQUE-BLACK-SUEDE-1

It’s the last day of 2014, I cannot believe it!  I remember last New Year’s Eve like it was last week, does that mean I’m getting old?  Hmm, probably, the NYE before last feels like a couple of months ago!  This year should be one to remember, family, friends, music, good vibes and some drank!

I have a few resolutions in mind, ones that I can stick to, that have come about from lessons learned over the past year.  I’ll put those out on the 1st day of 2015.

For now, let’s look at my black suede outfit – this is the jumpsuit I was trying on when I took my naykee Fashion For Relief pic on instagram.  My friend Philipp practically twisted my arm to buy it, and I’m so glad he did!  It’s a full suede jumpsuit by Haider Ackermann and I bought it for about 13% of the original price – that’s almost free!

The jacket is from New Look, saw it at the Men’s AW14 press day and have been waiting months for it to drop.  It finally did just after I brought long legged Sally home.
