Black and White Style with Dr. Martens

Top: Tamar Collection

Jeggings: Gap

Watch: Timex

Shoes: Dr. Martens

You can't go wrong with wearing classic black and white, and once I saw the Dr. Martens Jemima Temperley boot in Black I knew I had to have them! When styling these shoes, I knew they would easily go with a pair of black jeggings, and this white laser-cut vegan leather top for a streetwear vibe. 

I can also see myself wearing these shoes with distressed denim, or dressing them up with a skirt or dress. This chukka style fits my look perfectly, and I love the chunky contrast soles and kiltie detailing. The Jemima Temperley boot has some of Doc's signature elements such as grooved sides, stitching, heel loop, and air-cushioned sole, but it really has it's own fresh and modern look! Aside from the details, they didn't really look like Dr. Martens to me. Whenever I wear these out, people are always amazed when I tell them they are Dr. Martens!

The first time I wore these shoes I had to be on my feet at market for a 12-hour day, and they were incredibly comfortable! These shoes run big and wide, so I usually at least use an insole when I wear them, and sometimes also wear socks.

Sporty Style Featuring Tamar Collection and LeSportsac

Sports bra: Alexander Wang x H&M

Trackpants: Tamar Collection

Wedge sneakers: Simply Vera Vera Wang for Kohl's

Weekender bag: LeSportsac

Sunglasses: Oakley

Before the temps drop, I've been indulging in my sporty side without having to wear all the extra layers. I am really hooked on these black laser-cut vegan leather trackpants from Tamar Collection. Originally I wasn't sure about the fit since the smallest size starts at size Small / 4-6, but I went ahead and folded the waistband and was pleasantly surprised to find that the trackpants fit comfortably. The Tamar Collection crop top I got also has a great fit. The trackpants can also be paired with the crop top or tank top with heels. The trackpants are now available in Camel, and I definitely have my eye on other pieces from Tamar Collection, including the new Oxblood vegan leather top.

The LeSportsac Medium Weekender in Black Crinkle Patent, which works for running around the city or just going to the gym. It's also perfect for those long days during fashion week while trekking between fashion shows and lounges. I love all the front, back and side zipped pockets, which makes it easy to store on-the-go essentials like my metro card, headphones, phone charger or umbrella. 

A sleek sports bra with contrast color, slouchy trackpants or joggers, wedge sneakers and a duffel bag is my go-to pieces for my fashionable, sporty style.
