Socks and Mary Jane’s

February 5, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Looks, McKenna in Manhattan, Style, Winter Tags: fashion, winterfashion, winterstyle Leave a comment
I love a high sock and heel moment. First, I absolutely love these shoes. I first discovered the John Fluevog brand when as I was strolling through Soho one Saturday afternoon with my friends. The interior of the store, along with the set up of the funky shoes, immediately caught my attention and I had to go inside. I fell in love with the pair I’m wearing, and my mom gifted them to me for Christmas. I can never find shoes that fit my feet perfectly, I’m either slipping out of them or they are way too tight, and I was so happy when these shoes fit perfectly!

BAFTA Awards 2020 Best Dressed

February 3, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Articles, Quick Reads, Red Carpet, Style, Winter Tags: bestdressed, redcarpet, redcarpetfashion Leave a comment
The theme of last night’s 2020 BAFTA Awards was sustainability. The Duchess of Cambridge re-wore a beautiful white with gold detailing gown by Alexander McQueen that she last wore in 2012. Saoirse Ronan wore a Gucci gown made out of recycled materials. There was lots of pink on the red carpet last night as well, which of course I loved.

Valentine’s Day Red and Pink Picks

January 30, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Quick Reads, Style, Winter Tags: fashion, pink, red, style, valentinesday 2 Comments
Although I do wear pink and red all year-round, Valentine’s Day is the perfect time of year to bring out all your pink and red and mix and match. Not only is it fun to wear the colors through clothes, accessories are sometimes the best part. Heart shaped purses, pink and red socks, and hot pink faux fur are on the menu.

The 2020 Grammys Best and Worst Dressed

January 26, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Articles, Quick Reads, Red Carpet, Style, Winter Tags: #awardsseason, bestdressed, grammys, redcarpet Leave a comment
The Grammys are here! As for the other red carpets of the season they are more “reserved” as you could say with how the guests dress compared to the Grammys where they are a bit daring. Ariana Grande WINS best dressed to me, I mean c’mon, she’s wearing Giambattista Valli. Billy Porter is always taking on red carpets as a new challenge to beat his last, and his look this time around is off the charts. I was disappointed with looks from a few like Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sophie Turner, and we’ll see more worst dressed below.

If you follow me on my Instagram, @ mckennaramonajennings, you may notice that amidst the style photos there are quite a few shots of interiors and exteriors. I have always had a secret love for interior and exterior design, but especially since I’ve moved to New York City and have been able to wander around, I’ve found an even greater love for it.

Pretty Tops for Your Wardrobe

January 22, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Quick Reads, Style, Winter Tags: blouses, fashion, prettytops, style, winterfashion, winterstyle Leave a comment
As January is coming to a close and February is on the horizon, I start to go through my winter wardrobe and put away my red and navy plaids, and dig into my spring/summer pieces and grab a few that are perfect for transitioning from February to March. Especially with blouses I find that quite a few of my spring/summer ones I can style in a way that makes them appropriate to wear even in mid-winter.

SAG Awards Best Dressed

January 20, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Articles, Quick Reads, Red Carpet, Style, Winter Tags: #awardsseason, redcarpet, sagawards Leave a comment
After taking a look at the SAG Awards red carpet and comparing it to the Golden Globes and Critics’ Choice, my favorite red carpet so far is Golden Globes. Hopefully the Oscars’ red carpet will hit it off like I expect it too (high, high hopes.) This years SAG Awards red carpet was alright. Once again we have Reese Witherspoon looking stunning and classy as always, and Margaret Qualley’s look this time around impressed me far more than her other red carpet looks this season. A vibrant orange Valentino gown was seen on Kathryn Newton, and Scott Evans’ suit is my favorite one so far this year.

Chic Winter Whites

January 15, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Quick Reads, Style, Winter Tags: chic, winterfashion, winterstyle, winterwhite Leave a comment
Who says you can’t wear white after Labor Day? Definitely not me. Wearing whites in the winter be it an all-white ensemble or a pair of white jeans or nice blouse can look so le chic. When it hits mid-January I always love to brighten things up in my looks with the use of light colors and white.

Critics’ Choice Awards Best and Worst Dressed

The Critics’ Choice Awards red carpet impressed me far more than the Golden Globes. There were lots of unexpected color choices that I loved. All to remember that this is fashion-based judgement and not anything personal.

Exude Simplicity and Beauty with These Staple Items

January 10, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Quick Reads, Style, Winter Tags: classicbeauty, classicstyle, fashion, staplepieces, style Leave a comment
I am always the person when shopping to enter a store fully knowing I need a classic, staple item, and I always leave without that but with a crazy new colored faux fur, or an item I know I don’t NEED, but that I LOVE. I’ve been getting better about this, as I’m getting older I realize the importance of a staple item that when I put on although it may not be over the top, it makes anyone look classy and put together.

The Jazz Age, The Roaring Twenties, How all the Splendor Inspires Me

January 3, 2020 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Articles, Quick Reads, Style, Winter Tags: 1920s, 1920sfashion, 1920sstyle, jazzage, roaring20s Leave a comment
A period of divinity, exquisite dressing, and splendor partying through the duration of the 1920s and has left a mark on many of us one hundred years later. The younger people of the time pushed the limits outside of Victorian thinking and dived into the lifestyle of the decadent. Women were finally able to vote and were nudging themselves into the workforce, and most of all, they were testing the way women were “supposed” to dress with shorter hemlines and très chic bobbed hairstyles. Women were feeling empowered and society was booming.

It’s Christmas in Greenwich Village

December 9, 2019 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Looks, McKenna in Manhattan, Style, Winter Tags: christmas, fashion, greenwichvillage, nyc, nycstyle, winterstyle Leave a comment
Christmas has finally arrived here in Manhattan, and Greenwich Village is decked out. The military coat I’m wearing is from Zara last year, and I absolutely love it. Now every year I look forward to taking it out during the holidays because I think it’s the epitome of a Christmas coat! My Meme gave me this headband and I absolutely love it for winter in the city.

Burgundy, a Lovely Color for Autumn

November 25, 2019 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Fall, Looks, McKenna in Manhattan, Style Tags: autumn, autumncolors, centralpark, fall, fallstyle, fashion, uppereastside Leave a comment
Burgundy is a lovely shade to wear in the fall, and pairs so well with both browns and blacks, the basis of my autumn wardrobe. This coat that I’ve had for a year now was the perfect match to my Nars lip pigment in shade Warm Leatherette. This lip color is beautiful, and it lasts the whole day, with only a few touch ups after I drink or eat something. I love the Burgundy colors with the snake print, the two tones together look lovely.

Equestrian Style in the Meatpacking District

November 21, 2019 By MᶜKenna Ramona Jennings in Fall, Looks, McKenna in Manhattan, Style Tags: autumn, fall, meatpackingdistrict, nyc, nycfall, nycstyle Leave a comment
For an autumn day in the Meatpacking District I was inspired by equestrian style. I love the preppy aesthetic that comes with it, and I’ve always wanted to go horseback riding in a full ensemble from Ralph Lauren, but this will have to due for now. I wore an old plaid blouse from Zara that’s still one of my favorites years later, with a vintage brown leather vest that my mother gave me.
