This baroque inspired military hat designed by Rodrigo Otazu is perfection. I get a lot of my music and style influence from Baroque art and music, which means I seriously do spend a lot of time analyzing a lot of the patterns and sounds during that time. The Baroque era was filled with over the top patterns, colors and gold! These are three things that I live for when it comes to my style. I’m loving the lace on this hat with the gold chain, it gives me the Russian model spy vibe! Also, I think the color is everything! This light pink / orange color makes this military hat a lot more fun. FYI I am 100% open to gifts and donations for my birthday on September 18, please feel free to message me if you plan on mailing me this hat directly, checks are also accepted … I’m just letting you all know in advance just in case you want to start saving up for my gift! Also check out one of my favorite artists Common’s newest track ‘No Sell Out’ produced by No ID … I’m loving the vibe and it goes with the military hat. I’m glad Common is coming out with new music again, he is one of my favorite rappers ( Chi town stand up) Check it out below and get the free download!

In the track ‘ Visa’ you will hear a roaring lion and a lot of animal sounds that I recorded behind the track… It was really important for me to have these animals represented in the jewelry for the show, especially because I’m a jewelry fanatic! Anyone who knows me knows that I am a sucker for anything gold and sparkly! So stylist Jay got these pieces from his personal collection, I took a picture of each piece and posted above. Since the jewelry didn’t come from one store, I did a little research for some similar pieces that fit the theme of the look. A couple of people asked me where I got the jewelry and so I found these three similar items: The
