One gold watch. Two gold chains. Six gold rings: it’s nothin’! -Trinidad James

Gold all in my watch. Gold all in my ring… I swear I could kill the person who got this ridiculous (read: hilarious) song stuck in my head. No lie: I developed an entire row of abs laughing at the video. Why is there a shopping cart? Where is his shirt? Did he actually groom before they shot this? There are so many questions, but I digress.

As you all know, gold is my other fave color, and I love to look luxe when I’m broke. This outfit is a perfect culmination of the two. I went on a mini spree at Forever21 right before I left for NYC about a week ago. Feeling broke, I was only drawn to gold. How cute is this $13 skirt? Brocade screams luxe and the chain belt reminds me of Chanel.

I had an old dress that I can’t fit anymore, so I cut it into a top. Me being me, I just had to throw on piles of bangles, a huge necklace and Blacky (a mink my dad bought my mom back in the day that is now mine). It’s freezing in NY, so I finished it off with TopShop tights and booties. With that, I was ready to show out in the streets of NY. I LOVE this fit. It’s a def head turner. Don’t believe me? Just watch.
