One look at Olori Swank<\/strong>\u00a0and her illustrious blue hair and you can tell there is something different about her. Her fashion career started with a chance meeting, and has blossomed to include styling the likes of NFL star Antoine Bethea<\/strong>, actor and Sneak Peek alum\u00a0Lance Gross<\/strong>, model Tae Heckard<\/strong>, starlet Teyana Taylor<\/strong>, actor Tyrese<\/strong>, and superstar Donald Glover aka “Childish Gambino”<\/strong>. Her unusual path to fame allowed for knowledge gain strictly through on the job training that she shares via her OloriSWANK.com<\/a> fashion blog and as the Fashion Director of Krave Magazine. Though she spends most of her time styling others, Snkrs Day<\/em> asked Olori to describe her personal style.<\/p>\n “My style is very emotional. I dress for my mood. If I’m feeling super girly one day, then I’m going to rock a pencil skirt and some 6″ pumps. On the days where I feel like a tomboy, I’m pulling out my Jordans. If I’m feeling hood, you can catch me with a bottom grill of 8 golds in my mouth. I am very much into mixing high-end pieces with more affordable, fast fashion finds. I’ve never believed that the cost of an item determines how fly it looks. My favorite pair of shorts cost me $8 at Wal-Mart, and I get a million compliments on them.”<\/em><\/p>\n In the latest installment of Decked Out Females<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, we get a small glimpse into the eccentric style that makes Olori one of the fastest rising stars in the fashion industry. Be sure to follow Olori on Twitter<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n Forever 21 Moto Jacket\n “I bought this top from Forever 21 for $25. You’d never be able to tell because the fit is so amazing.”<\/em><\/p>\n Moda404 Leather Snakeskin Sweatpants\n “These Moda404 exclusive snakeskin, leather joggers has gold drawstring and zipper details at the pocket and ankle. These pants are actually made for guys, but I loved them so much I bought them anyway. When I’m not rocking them with sneakers, they look super sick paired with high heels. They retail at $795.”<\/em><\/p>\n Nike Air Foamposite One “Polarized Pink”\n “I have a bunch of pro athlete clients, and those guys love their sneakers! In shopping for them I’ve become quite the sneaker connoisseur. I pride myself on being able to find those rare kicks or getting the most sought after sneakers early. These Foams were one of those kicks that I acquired early, but decided to shelf. My initial plan was to bring them out in a year or so after everybody had forgotten about them, but they’re so pretty I couldn’t resist. It’s the girlie side of me that was drawn in by the allure of the color pink.” <\/em> Necklace – “I found this gaudy neck piece at a flea market in Atlanta for 30 bucks. I love it. It’s such a bold statement piece. I use it to dress up everything from a little black dress to a white v-neck tee.”<\/em><\/p>\n Rings – “My rings & bracelets are a mix of flea market finds as well.”<\/em><\/p>\n Chanel No. 5 Fragrance – “I think a good scent is essential to every outfit. I have quite an extensive collection of perfume, but I wear Viktor & Rolf “Flower Bomb” or “Chanel No. 5″ a lot.”<\/em><\/p>\n Men’s 18K Gold Presidential Rolex \u201cDay Date\u201d Watch with Diamond Bezel – “My dad gave me this watch. I was adamant about not having one of the smaller girlie ones so he bought me this one. I live for this watch because I can pass it down to one of my kids one day.”<\/em><\/p>\n Gold Dior Ellesse Trophy Sunglasses – “I’ve always had a thing for gold. All gold everything! When I saw these sunnies, I just had to have them. They double as a mirror whenever I need to touch up my lip gloss.”<\/em><\/p>\n Miu Miu Matelass\u00e9 Leather Clutch\n “The idea of pairing a clutch with sneakers (or even carrying a clutch as a day bag) is so unconventional, and I like unconventional. This clutch is big enough to house my essentials for the day.”<\/em>
