Street Style Spotlight: Taking it Back to Memphis with @JELLYB_

This edition of Street Style is a spotlight to one of the most influential dressers in Memphis, and that's a big title to fill if I must say so myself. Here I bring to you, @JellyB_. Jelly is the owner of Jazzy Boutique , which is a fabulous boutique downtown that has some of the best pieces you can find in Memphis. 

Now let's talk about her fashion sense.. one word .. PERFECT. It's the perfect mix between high fashion and urban wear. The great thing about her sense of dress is it is so versatile. You can see her in 6 inch heels one day and Chanel sneakers the next day. The versatility of her attire is one thing that caught my eye from the jump, and I just knew from then on she would be great. Jelly is constantly going above and beyond to remain on top of the fashion game, and let me tell you it's working. I myself, look up to her as a fashion icon of Memphis. I am all for fashion that blows your mind, but yet is still simple and chic so that viewers can grasp the concept of your outfit. Jelly's clothing speaks for her, it tells you to SHUT UP and PAY ATTENTION or more like step your game up. But whatever the message is that you conceive when checking out her awesome array of outfits, one thing is for sure is that she is on top right now.

Let's welcome her to CamoXfurs.

Check out some of my favorites look below, and if you're ever in Memphis stop by her shop. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Street Style: Tennessee State Edition

Hello my beautiful followers, let me first start by saying sorry for the shortage of post. Keeping up with a blog is a very hard task when you're juggling a million and one other things, but to get things back into the groove let's check out this Street Style by @ohsopretty45.

I'm in love with this outfit..from the cheetah print to the neon color pants ..this look is perf. Prints and neon always can make any outfit superb, so don't be afraid to mix the two. This look is great for a campus look, but so versatile where you can add a pair of heels with it and go out for a night on the town. Check it out, and let me know what you think. 

Cheetah Print Peplum: F21

Neon Trousers:F21

Emmy Awards 2013: And the Best Dressed Award goes to..

The time has rolled around once again for television lovers to grab their popcorn and grab a seat right in front of the big screen. The 65th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony awarding the best in prime-time television premiered last night. While most fans where watching to see who would take home that golden statue, I was watching to see what ensemble caught my eye on the red carpet.  Every television star you could imagine packed the house last night from Kerry Washington to Jessica Lange. Stars were in attendance all in hopes of taking home that golden statue that every star lone for.  

Now let’s get to the good part. To say the least, I was not at all impressed by the ensembles chosen for this glorious event. The theme screamed to me simple chic, I didn’t experience the excitement that I usually would experience while looking at outfits on the red carpet. One thing I can say about the Emmy Award’s red carpet is that it was definitely not a Met Gala Ball red carpet. While I was scrolling through the images I did happen to find a couple looks that caught my eye and that screamed “I deserve an Emmy award.”

Let’s start off with one of the most watched television series star, Kerry Washington, which shocked thousands when Best Actress in Drama went to Claire Danes..again.  One thing we can say, because I’m sure a lot can be said about this disappoint for Scandal fans is that she looked stunning while losing.

Shall we continue? Next, we have Jessica Lange in Escada. Stunning, if I must say so myself.

Here we have the sensational Rose Byrne in her rose pink ensemble designed by the one and only, Calvin Klein.

Street Style: @_leannadenise

First, let me say she is one of my favorite dressers from Memphis and I don't have many. So kudos to her for always being styled to the tee. Now she isn't a student at TSU, but she is only 30 minutes away at MTSU. This fashion killer's style is always chic and girly. But sometimes she likes to switch it up, and go tomboy chic. Check her out below as she brings Jordan's and mini skirts together to create perfection.

Shirt: Forever 21

Pleated Skirt: Agaci

Jordan's: Finish Line 

Have a fashionable day.

Top 10 Fall Trends:1-5

With Fall right around the corner, knowing the latest trends right off the runway are a MUST. Fall is coming back and it’s with a vengeance. This Fall you can count on seeing leather of all sorts, punk rock back and in full affect, and a chance to see a winter wonderland at least wardrobe wise.  

1.     Snow White

Who said that we can only wear white on Labor Day?  Designers Tommy Hilfiger and Derek Lam, just to name a few are making their own rules this year by dressing models in all white. With head to toe white making the strongest impression on the runway, you’re sure to see it worn any time of the day.

Derek Lam



2.     Rebirth of the Grunge

Designers are having a blast from the past with the beloved 70’s grunge era. With the chains, spikes, and studs becoming more outrageous, the new trend only grows deeper. Designers used the 90’s grunge era and modernized it for the new evolving fashion generation.

3. Modern Day Suit

The classic business suit has evolved thanks to designers. No more of the typical pants and blazer duo, there is now a new suit in town. Lace and peplum are evolving the business casual look with an edge that every business woman needs to be unstoppable.  

Jason Wu



4.     Thigh High Boots

 Fall means lower temperatures and chic thigh high boots right? At least, that was the image designers wanted to display. Thigh high boots went right along with the rebirth of the Glam-Rock era that was seen everywhere on the runway. Thigh high boots will be a great accessory to add to your wardrobe if you’re looking for that edgy yet chic look.

Emilio Pucci

5.     Structural Bag

The traditional feminine bag is out, and the structural bags are in. The angular bags are leaving their mark on every shoulder. The definite shape of the new IT bag adds sophistication to any look. The structural bag can be paired with a

 business professional or any casual look. 

 



 Stay tuned for the next 5 fall trends YOU should be wearing.
Stay Fashionable.

Welcome Tennessee State Street Style.

I am starting a new section of my blog (tab coming soon) called Tennessee State Street Style. This new section goes hand in hand with the outfit of the day, but I separated the two. The #ootd post will be submission sent by my fellow viewers of the blog while Tennessee State Street Style is outfits I see on campus or Intsagram that I feel the need to post on my blog. I am definitely a big fan of TSU style, so I decided this is the perfect way to show the world wide web how we dress and to get students on the campus involved with Camoxfurs.  Now every Street Style may not be from campus, it could just be a look on Instagram that I like, but most of the outfits will be from my campus.

 

To start off my new section it's only right that I use one of the most fashionable ladies on campus haling all the way from the Chi. Her name is @jendayiw who is also the background for Camoxfurs. 

 

 

Her style is definitely chic yet comfortable. She is the type of dresser that does not do too much, but does just enough to create perfection.

 

 Check out her outfit below.

 

 

Perfection right?

 

This look is perfect for any outing with the girls or just an around campus look.

Top: American Apparel

Mesh Joggers: Asos

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

Clutch: Urban Outfitters

 

Kudos to @jendayiw !
