Had such a great time at the @insprny x @tezza launch event yesterday. Her pieces are so beautiful and I want them all! It also gave me an excuse to wear this flattering red jumpsuit again. It’s now on mega sale and under $40! ❤️ #mango Shop from link in my bio or 👉🏽http://liketk.it/2AoRO #liketkit @liketoknow.it Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it app #LTKunder50 (at The Standard, East Village NY) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1vxVjB5pK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bs7ushaxqja7

I remember when I was a little girl how much I wanted to be a boy. I wanted to play rough the way my brother did. I wanted to have the freedom he had. I didn’t want to be so emotional; I wanted to be tough. So, I became a tomboy. I climbed trees and I rough-housed with the best of them. I even got into fights with boys. Who did I think I was? 🙈I felt this way until my late 20’s. It wasn’t until then that I started to embrace being female - a woman. It wasn’t until then that I realized that I can be a woman who’s strong. I can be emotional, it doesn’t mean that I’m weak. Today, I celebrate being a woman because the strength of a woman is unbeatable. So celebrate you, each and every day. Happy International Women’s Day. 💗 📸 @alexdianaaa #internationalwomensday #loveyourself #beyourself #selfconfidence (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/Buv8DAvBCBJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tvtuupjkujrp

Missing these faux locs right now. I love low maintenance hairstyles like this because it legit takes off at least 40mins off my day. Many of you don’t know this but I had dreads in my hair for about 10 years before going natural. But, after having my first child, I had to remove them because my edges started to thin due to the drop in hormones. I was going through old pics and found this one of me with my little cousin - swipe right. 😃 Seems like many moons ago.

Last year, I was lacking cozy sweaters. This year, not so much. This @andotheestories green and white beauty is the latest in my sweater collection. As far as I’m concerned, we still have a few weeks left of winter so gimme all the cozy sweaters. 🤗Linked in bio and on the LIKEtoKNOW.it app. #andotherstories #ad http://liketk.it/2AgWv @liketoknow.it #liketkit (at Tribeca) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bul_7TZheH_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kym5wnusc0lx

Sundays are for #selfcare. 💁🏾‍♀️ I love using this @beautycounter body lotion, courtesy of @rhodes2betterbeauty, right after coming out of the shower. It’s super hydrating and it keeps my skin moisturized for hours! Hope y’all are having a great Sunday! Don’t forget to pamper yourself! 🥰#beautycounter #beauty #skincare https://www.instagram.com/p/Bujag5BBn_S/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lk1ydtf2bs0v

Who needs a dust filter when you have snow? ❄️ I’ve been taking regular breaks from social media and investing in some self-care. I realized that I’ve been going so hard that I’ve been forgetting to love myself. Last night, I resumed massage therapy for my chronic back pain and it was divine. I’m also listening to self-help audiobooks to keep me centered. There are things that I just need to make the time for. Slow and steady wins the race, right? What about you guys? Have you been neglecting parts of your life that you should be giving your attention to? #loveyourself (at Tribeca) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuYw8d0h0Ho/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hnaefjj9nzsc

That time I made friends with a horse in Central Park. Swipe right to see the progression of this encounter. 😂Once I went in for a hug, he got super friendly. Lol. 🤗 On another note, congrats to all the Oscar winners last night. I was especially happy to see so many people of color represented. 🙌🏽 Side note: there’s something about @mahershalaali that I just love. Always happy to celebrate him. 😊 #celebrateblackhistory Linked a few striped dresses here 👉🏽 http://liketk.it/2A801 #liketkit @liketoknow.it Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it app (at Central Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuToEb7B0yL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j1d0c5n9pa0i

I couldn’t help myself. I was so excited when it snowed two days ago, I had to go out and take pics. Don’t get me wrong, I will forever be a tropical girl but we haven’t had a proper snowfall and what’s winter without snow, right? ❄️As long as it doesn’t stick around for too long, I’m golden. 👌🏽 How’s everyone’s Friday going so far? http://liketk.it/2A4Ye #liketkit @liketoknow.it Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it app (at Tribeca) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuMM2rEB3SC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1328yq1shw3qs

The best part part about #NYFW for me was meeting new friends and reconnecting with old ones (swipe left). Next to fall 2016, this season was one of the best one for me so far and the most fun. Check out my IGTV for a little snippet from day 3. Xoxo #nyfw2019 #nyfwstreetstyle (at NYFW) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuBmhO9hdt2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q9yxjcx50o49

Had such a fun time earlier this week walking the red carpet with @stitchfix at the Columbus Circle subway station. As people were getting off the subway, they were invited to walk the red carpet, get interviewed and have their own celeb moment. I love the message behind this campaign because it basically tells you that you don’t have to be a star to feel like a star. 💁🏾‍♀️Swipe to see a couple BTS moments. ⭐️#sponsored #stitchfixredcarpet #stitchfix #stitchfixinfluencer (at Columbus Circle) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt54zUfAL2_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ibvsdq6m51cy

#ad Treating myself this Valentine’s Day by doing the most. Instead of waiting, I’m taking it to the next level and buying my own @Dovechocolate and my own flowers. I call this the precursor to date night because why not? #choosepleasure #dovechocolate #valentinesday #galentinesday http://liketk.it/2zTQk #liketkit @liketoknow.it Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it app #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt3Tmkyg1lG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9fzlqio3418s

Taking a second from fashion week content to celebrate femininity and how amazing it is to be a woman. Never in a million years would I have thought that I would do a budoir shoot but there’s nothing like it to help you feel confident in your own skin. I encourage you all this Valentines Day to celebrate you - every beautiful aspect and every wonderful flaw that is you. ❤️ Thank you @thelunarphase for allowing me to be a part of this campaign. 😘 #loveyourselffirst #thelunarphasexevents #galentinesday PC: @budoir.art.jp Makeup: @misstraficante https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt0vNsThUrH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ajhsko5fde1y

The coat that kept me warm during #NYFW Day 3. If you were out and about, you know how cold it was! My toes felt like they were going to fall off! Today actually looks like winter in NY ❄️ so I’m skipping my event and staying in. No shoes will be ruined today! Hope everyone is staying warm! 💕http://liketk.it/2zSiY #liketkit @liketoknow.it #asos (at NYFW) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtyfNklhXn7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sw0dwj9rq83s

Nothing like a tailored jumpsuit to make you feel like you can take over the world. This was my #NYFW Day 3 look and I totally felt like a # girlboss wearing this @donnazhongofficial number 🙌🏽 Now off to day 5! As always, stay tuned to my stories - I’m taking things uptown and doing something a little different today. #donnazhong #sponsored (at NYFW) https://www.instagram.com/p/Btv4-w5hlV_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d3o91c9xog2u
