Rakia Reynolds has eclectic personal style. This trendsetter isn’t afraid to mix bold colors, vivid patterns, and designer pieces with vintage finds; she even showed up for a shoot with Lucky Magazine in a pink tutu. As Philadelphia’s 360 Fashion Ambassador, Rakia works with Philly’s tourism corporation to promote the blossoming local shopping scene.
I love Philly and met the bubbly Temple graduate during a recent visit for the city’s first Fashion Week. This busy hot mama is also fashion editor for the revamped Vibe magazine and I asked Rakia to share her Top 5 Wardrobe Pieces for the Fall/Winter season..
Accessories:
I can’t live without my super transitional dress-me-up/dress-me-down drawstring scarves by Philly’s Letau Designs; I wear them with jeans, dresses, tanks, or anything in my closet.
Outerwear:
Right now, I am sporting a vintage wool military cape coat and an old school slim fitting leather jacket.
All That Glitters:
I can’t live without lamé jackets, dresses, or tops. I am into anything that sparkles. I also adore the vintage, sequins dresses that I pick up at thrift stores in New Jersey and Philly.
Hot Mama Daily readers can also check out “What’s in Your Closet?” with Rakia every Wednesday on the Philly insider website, uwishunu.com.
