… aaand FYI: I’m 6’2″, with a skinny, athletic body-type, wearing a true US10 or EU43.

With the holidays around the corner, I did a little gift guide slash photoshoot with Express as part of my ambassadorship program and it turned out amazingly! The inspiration for this was an athletic theme, so I started the look off with a pair of herringbone jogger chinos. They’re easily one of my favorite pants right now, both the general silhouette as well as that particular pair, as they’re dressy, but still sporty, and if you know me, you also know that I’m all about that! The Bordeaux sweater is a classic staple in my wardrobe with its infinite versatility, and adds a nice pop of color that ties back in with the kicks. The layered leather jacket is still one of my favorite styling choices, adding texture, style, and warmth to your outfit. The coat is a classic topcoat, which you’ve seen a few times already, with a herringbone to match with the pants, broken up by the other pieces to not look too “matchy matchy.”

The awesome thing is, though, that this season Express has new featured brands for some great holiday gifts. So we’re looking at super dope high-top sneakers from Creative Rec, an amazing backpack from Enter, and even smaller accessories like the Jawbone up2 tracker band that really help pull the look together. You can get all of that on express.com, whether you’re gifting yourself (one of my favorite things to do, nobody knows better what I like than me lol) or your boyfriend (he’ll be crazy happy too though). Let the season begin 😉
