Lust-Worthy: Beauty Sleep Realized x Slip Silk Pillowcase

If you must know, I love to sleep. I'm one of those people. I could sleep for 9-10 hours, no problem. Seeing as I spend so much time in bed (I really only get about 7-8 hours a night), I knew my choice of bedding would be vital.

Recently, I heard about the magic of silk pillowcases. My curiosity peaked after the third time I heard about it so naturally, I had to try it for myself to see if it really is sleep-altering. So firstly, you can't just get any silk pillowcase. Slip uses the highest grade of silk out there. Secondly, if you're skeptical about believing claims that a product makes, rest assure I have tried this pillowcase for almost 2 weeks now and have made notes about any changes. So my first thoughts on the product are as follows:

Slip Silk Pillowcases are anti-aging, anti-crease, and anti-bedhead.

Anti-bedhead: It's so, so perfect for when you get a blowout because instead of the usual cautiousness that I experience while sleeping to keep my hair in its perfect, blowout state, the silk pillowcase is gentle on your hair and prolongs your perfect hair-commercial-blowout.

Anti-aging: Cotton can be rough on your skin simply because of the texture or thread of the cotton. But silk is so fine that your skin feels like it's gliding across it. There's no friction, which is important because the skin on our face is naturally quite sensitive in comparison to the rest of our body.

Anti-crease: I sometimes smush the side of my face into my pillow. It just feels right. I actually admit I worried about it wrinkling or creasing my skin. Gravity is real, guys. I did the logical analysis and if I smush my face on the far left side for long enough then gravity will do its job. Once I started sleeping on my silk pillowcase, I didn't change a thing about my sleeping style and never woke up with crease-y face.

Final thoughts: My skin looks a bit brighter, a bit more naturally luminous. My hair also looks more shiny. I usually wash my hair every other day but after sleeping on Slip Silk for two weeks, I am able to get away with washing it every TWO days. I do highly recommend it to any of you who believe in the power of beauty sleep.

Casual Chic

I really love a good pair of heels. Something about how it elevates the most casual look. The same way a pair of classic sneakers could add a cool girl vibe to a dress or polished look, a pair of sky high, sexy heels adds a touch of femininity and elegance to the simplest outfit. And I've always said that whether or not you follow fashion or trends, it's important to invest in great shoes. I must add that it is just as important to get the shoes that are affordable and will serve as your go-to shoes for certain looks. Let's be real. I simply can't wear these heels all day, everyday. My pediatrist would be very upset with me. But when I need to feel tall (there are those days) or when I need to finish an outfit for a night out, dinner, or event, these will absolutely be the ones I grab and put on.

Textured monochromatic accessories are my thing. My Emily Cho oversized bag is everything. It's so chic, I need a new word for chic to do it justice. One of my favorite brands, Emily Cho, has made sophisticated, quality, must-have bags season and after. What I love most about this bag? It won't get dirty from the NY grime. The croc texture is excellent and stays pristine.

Lastly, the jacket I'm wearing is actually meant to be a men's jacket. No surprise here considering I steal my beau's clothes like it's my job. His good friend started designing his own collection and this bomber jacket is one of many amazing pieces. Feel free to inquire me if you're interested in getting one for yourself!

Now, next week I will be off to Meeahmi (how I pronounced Miami for fun) for a few days. And I cannot WAIT to share my mini trip with you all. Keep in touch!

DailyWear

Elegant, effortless, and essential. A jean jacket, a white tee, and some simple slacks paired with chic, minimal accessories makes for the best outfit that suits anyone's daily routine. This is my go to look on weekends. Remember, dressing casual does not mean you must sacrifice style. As Coco Chanel said, simplicity is the keynote to all true elegance. Simple does not mean basic, that's for sure. But a bunch of wardrobe essentials could make for an entirely chic look! Try it with even more oversized trousers and some Stan Smith's for an uber cool, relaxed look.

Minimal accessories are the best things to top off a simple outfit. This TSOG bag is an essential, minimal, and well-designed bag that I've been using on the daily. It's my go to bag for when I'm carrying my laptop and books to class and to coffee shops to work. The reason why I love it so much is because of the thick rope straps and durable materials. It makes my laptop and books feel far less heavy on my shoulders in comparison to other big bags that have thinner straps. The tote I'm wearing is the Barcelona bag. It's made of waterproof canvas and durable rubberized leather and goes with eh-ver-y-thing.

BLUSH

I have a deep love for minimal, long pencil skirts especially if they're in a gorgeous blush tone. As a New Yorker, I have the occasional urge to ditch the head to toe black outfits. So light and airy colors like white, cream, and blush make winter feel fresh and renewed instead of drab and grey. Here I styled my blush tone pencil skirt with a cashmere turtleneck, a wool structured coat, and white Stan Smiths. The blush sunglasses were a happy coincidence but perfect accent to complete the look.

A Simple Menswear Inspired Look

One of the most brilliant wardrobe staples you can have is a grey knit sweater. There are numerous ways you can style yours and it'll be a classic piece that you'll always have and always wear. The best thing about it is, it isn't trendy. That's a good way to tell what pieces you should invest in. The basics, the basics, the basics.

Here, I paired my sweater designed by amazing Aussie designer, Sarah Jane Knapp, with white trousers and a men's grey herringbone blazer and simple strappy heels. This sweater stands out for its cool, unique twist knit in the front. Try pairing yours with a pencil skirt and tuck it in with boots or sneakers or with a pair of high waist shorts and sandals for a casual look.

I'm off to a mini vacation this week! Amidst an insane couple of weeks, I think we needed some major R&R, but mostly to escape this cold NY weather. Can't wait to share the photos with you.

Must-have Down Parka

If there's one piece of clothing you should invest in, it's your winter coat. Aside from the traditional wool coat, you should most definitely have a down parka for those colder days. Puffy jackets sometimes get a bad rep but only if it isn't chic and utterly stylish. The one I'm wearing is from Snowman NYC. I love outerwear that stands out. Of course, we all have our simple, black coat but you've GOT to get one thats stands out subtly or stands out completely. Either way, go for something different so the coat speaks for itself. The reason I would suggest a stand out coat is because it's covering over half your outfit! The only way to look cute in the winter is through outerwear.

Layers

My personal style is heavily influenced by New York. I love this city like no other. The thing that I love most (besides the endless variety of amazing food and culture), is the multifaceted-ness of the city, the layers that make it what it is. From the underground subway to the sidewalks, to the skyscrapers, and many levels of existence in between, I find some creative inspiration from it all.

Probably the only thing I love about winter, or really, a mild winter, is the fact that I can layer up and layer up some more. It challenges me to come up with new ways to layer other than adding sweaters on sweaters and coats on coats. This time, it's much more subtle and discreet. I layered my duster over an asymmetrical pencil skirt. A double skirt situation? Oh, yes. So warm below the waist and so comfortable all over. It might be hard to pull off a skirt in 30 degree weather but it's doable when there's enough skin coverage so you don't have to pretend you're warm.

Lace x Herringbone

I love, love, love mixing feminine pieces with masculine ones. I feel this amazing balance, almost like the universe has aligned in my favor all of a sudden. It may sound a tad dramatic but this kind of stuff happens when you identify with what you wear. One day, I was looking at my closet and all of a sudden it clicked. You've got to pair this lace, delicate top with that herringbone, boxy blazer. I don't often dress far feminine or far menswear inspired often because I don't feel too comfortable dressing in one particular way. I always tend to mix pieces that evoke different emotions. It throws people off. In the best way...

Niller Goes To Brunch: Foragers Table - Chelsea, NY

FORAGERS

As a New Yorker, how could you not appreciate a satisfying, delightful brunch paired with good friends and an instagram-worthy snapshot? To get all of that and more, I highly recommend going to Foragers Table for brunch, available only during the weekends. The first thing that caught my eye about the menu was the use of incredibly fresh ingredients. I've recently started to pack my fridge with organic produce and eggs, a minor but impactful change in my food. Even if you're not so into finding organic or 'healthy' places to brunch, I still recommend going here for the thoughtfulness in presentation and the glorious taste of their dishes.

The market attached to the restaurant is just as amazing, filled with things you wouldn't find in a normal market. I found frozen oxtail bone broth there (thank the Pho Lords!) and my beau found the best ice cream there called Mcconnell's. His best kept secret... as he usually finishes the pint of ice cream before I even realize it's in our freezer.

OTK Boots x Teddy Bear Coat

You can find over-the-knee at so many different styles and prices. Everyone has been lusting over them since Stuart Weitzman came out with the highland boot. I admit, I've been thinking about saving up for them as well but I found a great alternative from Ego shoes, a UK based brand. I was worried about whether or not it will fit my slim calves, as many knee high boots make me look like a kid in her mom's shoes. But lo and behold, these OTK boots fit perfectly and have an adjustable tie at the thigh. So if you're on the fence about some OTK boots, get 'em! I think every girl should have a heel version and a flat version. I'm still on the look out for the perfect flat OTK boots because this winter has become brutally cold. Take me to the beach already!!

Cozy in Monochrome

December was an insanely busy month. But I'm back doing what I do best! I turned 22 and feel great about the upcoming year. 2016 will bring about a lot of changes that I am excited and nervous for at the same time! In terms of my wardrobe, I'm also investing in pieces I know I will wear over and over in efforts to shop less and enjoy my wardrobe more. After all, they say we only use about 30% of our wardrobe. I've been trying to bump that number up to 50%. Thus, I have started selling some clothes on Depop! Feel free to shop my closet via Depop under the username T.L Niller.

For this look, I paired my favorite vegan leather leggings with my Giuseppe Zanotti boots that are perfect for these cold, wintery days. Topped off with a casual, slouchy cashmere sweater and a boxy, long wool coat. All black ensembles could be rather bland but once you mix different textures together, it makes a monochrome look so much more styled and put together.

Thanks for checking out my post today! Stay tuned for more great styled looks to come.
