- Hey loves, wassup?
It's Toya.
Welcome back to my channel.
I am so happy because fall is approaching very quickly
and actually I don't even know when the official day
of fall is but fall is my favorite season for fashion
so I wanted to share a little bit of a collective haul.
I hope you guys enjoy.
So during the move,
I will not mention any names (laughs)
but (yells) my husband, yeah, he's owning up to it,
accidentally threw away all of my shoes.
- [Man] I fucked up!
- And when I say all of my shoes,
outside of like a couple of pairs of flats
that I could only wear when I was pregnant,
I mean all of my shoes.
So I'm having to start from scratch
so I want to start with the things that
I'm most excited about.
I don't know if you guys can see any boxes over here
but you guys see this?
Do you see this?
This would be my first pair of Converse
but you know, I'm not a huge Converse person
but these, I even I couldn't pass up.
These are the Comme De Garcons Converse collaboration.
Chuck Taylors.
I'm a size 10, so like you know my feet are kind of big
but I love these.
I got the high top because I want to wear them with
some leather leggings.
I think these with some leather leggings
and like a leather jacket, a really comfortable tee
underneath would look really dope.
So I do have some leggings but I'll show you later.
I just, I think these are really dope
and I want the high top ones because I planned on either
like rolling up my pants or wearing leggings with these so,
so excited.
So on the opposite side of comfort (laughs)
I have some Nine West boots that I got from Nordstrom
and I believe I got the Converse from Nordstrom too.
I will put all the links down below
but these boots,
oh yeah.
I mean can you feel me though?
These are probably three inches,
let me just show you guys.
I want to say that these are faux suede.
The heel is not too high.
You know, I can not do four inch heels really anymore
like I used to so I want comfort
but I want style at the same time.
It's a pointy toe, pointy toe.
I am absolutely in love with suede
or leather, even if it's faux leather boots
but I think that these will be very, very chic for the fall.
It does not rain a lot here in California
so I think when I, I'll spray these down
just in case but I'm really excited to wear these.
And back again to comfort, I did some shopping at Zara
and I got these, these sneakers.
They're really cool.
They're faux leather
and they have these black and white polka dot strings
on them that I think are just too, too, too cute
and like if I'm gonna wear a sneaker,
I'm gonna wear a sneaker, you know what I mean?
So I really, really like these.
They're black and white.
I've been kind of going with a black and white theme.
I did just have a baby so
and I am building from scratch so the reason I say
I just had a baby,
black is just very chic and slimming
but then also when I'm building from scratch,
I really want to get the basic colors,
the blacks, the nudes, the tans out of the way
before I can have a little bit more fun
but this is kind of a good compromise
between comfort and practicality with a sprinkle of fun.
I am a size 10 by the way so (laughs),
all you size 10 girls do you feel me when I say
sometimes it's terrible, like it's ridiculous
trying to find your size of shoe.
They have gotten so much better, oh my gosh.
All right, so, moving on,
Zara, everything I got was black (laughs)
so there's this blouse, it's a see-through blouse.
It has, it's very textured you know.
I want to say that this is probably polyester.
It has a button on the sleeve,
it's kind of loose, kind of flowy,
a little bit of a boxy shape.
It has some fringing, lace fringing along the collar area
and the polka dots have this sort of velvet texture
to them on top of the sheer material.
I got this in a size medium and it is polyester, yes.
And then I got some high-waisted leggings.
I was supposed to return one of them
because I got a medium and I got a large
because I wasn't sure what my post-pregnancy body
would be doing but they are high-waisted.
They have, these are the, are they the mediums?
They look like a medium, yeah, these are the mediums.
They have, whoa, an elastic waist, they are high-waisted.
They have some vertical stitching,
lots of long panels in this
and I like the material
because it's kind of thick and I feel like it's gonna
kind of pull me in.
Yeah because I'm gonna need all the pulling in
that I can get.
So I got these also in a size large
so I can probably fit one now and then one later
once I'm, once I finish my snapback,
you know what I'm saying.
Now remember before when I mentioned
faux leather leggings?
So Bloomingdale's was having this big sale
pretty recently and they had a really good deal
on these Spanx leggings.
Okay I don't own anything from Spanx
but these have amazing reviews online
and it seems to be like the go to thing.
It's like everyone is like rushing to get a discount
on these Spanx leggings because I think they're like
over 100 dollars, retail price
and I want to say I don't know, I feel like I got like
50% off or 70% off, I can't remember
but these are great.
They're in size large and even if, I feel like even if
I kind of slim down because they're so stretchy
and after washing, things like that,
I should be able to wear them
but these are a moto legging
and I think that these are bomb
and they will go with pretty much anything
that I bought so black.
I love mixing textures so I'm good.
I'm good.
Now because I am working on my body
and because I am breastfeeding and pumping
every like three to four hours,
I would say between three and five hours I am pumping milk
or feeding him and I need like accessibility
to the boobies, you know what I'm saying?
So right before I had Davinci,
I got a bunch of maternity dresses
because I knew I wasn't gonna be able to fit anything.
I couldn't fit anything during pregnancy obviously
and I wanted something that would be versatile
that could bring me from summer into fall
with layering a couple pieces so I got a bunch
of nursing dresses.
I didn't even know that these existed.
So I got them from Kohl's
and Kohl's was having a great sale.
They're always kind of having sales,
but I got them from kohls.com
and what I love about them, I'm wearing one now,
I'll show you in a minute, is that they look like
a normal dress but then you lift it up
and then there's holes.
There's holes for your boobies.
This is ingenious, guys.
It's so good and I got these all in a size medium,
a maternity medium.
So when you're shopping for maternity clothes,
apparently you're supposed to get the size that you were
pre-pregnancy and I think that that's so smart
because I was like I don't know what size I am
and that's something I didn't know.
So I got it in black and white,
I got it in olive and cream.
Then I got like a tank top version in red and white.
I got an all black one that has like a little knot tie
in the front like this one
and this one oop, and this one also has the little
peak-a-boo, little peak-a-boo.
So if these dresses are still available,
I will find them and link them down below.
If not, I will post something similar.
I ended up hitting up Forever 21
and thank God for Forever 21.
The quality of their clothing is not the best.
I think we all know that like after a year or two,
you'll probably be cycling the clothes out
but the point of Forever 21 is to keep you on trend
and you know, it's inexpensive.
So I got a couple of pairs of leggings
and I got a crap ton of tank tops
and what I like about the tank tops
is that you can easily drop 'em okay
and you can put them under anything.
You can put, you know, jackets, long sleeve shirts.
These are kind of the most versatile
piece of clothing I feel like I own, you know what I mean?
Like who doesn't need a couple of tank tops
and now that I'm nursing,
drop it down, put it back up.
It's great and I don't even have to wear to a bra
when I'm at home so it's amazing
and then I did get a pair of jeans
because I can't fit any of mine.
These are size 30 and they are high rise jeans
with some distressing and some slits at the knee
and I have three random things that I got from Amazon.
Shower caps (laughs) shower caps.
These are very, very thick,
very durable and I mean they're normal size
so like if you have super big hair,
maybe not the ones for you
but more often than not, my hair is in a bun, a ponytail,
in twists already so a regular shower cap
is just fine and they're in these really cute colors
and patterns so I will link these down below
if you're in, you know, in the market for a new shower cap.
I also went to MAC and MAC when my mother-in-law
was in town, we kind of checked it out
and I ended up finding these MAC Prep and Prime
Fix Plus Matte and I have not used it yet.
I remember the regular Fix Plus so I'm really excited
to try this out.
I have very oily skin, pregnancy has not been kind
to my skin so what I am doing right now
is I'm kind of refraining from using this
because I am repairing my skin.
I have a bunch of hormonal acne.
It's like, it's nothing I have ever experienced before
in my life and I did not know that this happened
but you know, I'm the anomaly, like all the time
so my skin is jacked up.
In response to that, I went on Amazon
and they were selling Benzoyl Peroxide
and I looked it up and it's pretty okay
for women that are nursing
so this is 10% guys.
Usually you'll see 2.5% but this is 10%
and because my skin is so oily,
it does dry me out
but in a good way.
I can throw some moisturizer on and still be fine
so if you have super dry skin,
I probably would not try 10% Benzoyl Peroxide
but it's seems to be working out.
I think, if this works out,
I also have like this special soap that I got too.
Like I might do a skincare routine
but that's only like if it actually works
and I can give you guys good news, you know what I'm saying?
But so far so good.
So that is the end of my haul.
I'm so happy to be back.
Thumbs up, let me know what your favorite piece was
and also like, do you guys have any like post-partum
fashion tips that you want to lay down on a sistah?
I will accept everything because this is a learning process
for me too.
I am excited for it, you know what I'm saying
'cause like it's fashion but if you guys have anything
that you've tried that works well, like the leggings
and the tank top sort of thing, let me know
so I can try it out.
I love you guys and I will talk to you later.
