Look of the Day: Yellow Feva 💛🖤


Looks like I'm going to have to dabble in more early 20th century looks, because this one is fiyah! Last week, my bff asked if I wanted to visit the Richard Driehaus Museum here in Chicago. Funny thing, I recently found out about the museum this year and decided I wanted to go. It's dedicated to the Gilded Age of the late 19th century and early 20th century.

So of course knowing me, I had to show up and show out with the appropriate attire! While this look isn't exactly Gilded Age accurate, it's close enough! 












Yellow and black is a great color combination, especially for the springtime. The touch of white with the oxfords and cateye sunglasses (which aren't so 20's/30's, but still so vintage) really adds some umph to the look. 

 I was going to style my natural hair, into a victory roll hairstyle (again, not 20's/30's, more so 40's) but I was like:

So I decided like Solange to just rock my pixie cut finger wave wig for a very flapper vibe! I definitely felt like I was going to bust out doing the Charleston dance. My favorite details on this look have to be the eyeshadow, the wig, the long pearl strand necklace (complimentary to the Roaring Twenties), and the overall color scheme. Lastly, I love how I added a hot pink lippie instead of the classic red look. Pink lips made this look a lot more seasonal appropriate and vibrant af.

My first official spring look and I'm here for it!
