Hey Bombers and Bombshells! Today’s bombshell is New York native Shaquita Garcia, better known by her Instagram handle, (@theemodernhousewifeny) and leaves a great mark wherever he goes.
She’s the quintessential New York girl: bold, stylish and, of course, fashion-forward. Her combination of vibrant colours and luxe prints is what makes Shakita stand out from the crowd.
A Cleveland native, Shaquita describes her style as fun and free-spirited, and as a mother raising young children in a busy city like New York, she enjoys coming up with new ideas for comfortable and stylish looks.
“I’m a vintage and second-hand clothing connoisseur, so I often shop at stores like Buffalo Exchange, L Train Vintage, and Crossroads Trading,” she says. In addition to her love for vintage apparel, Shakita is also a designer with her own brand. AART New YorkHer brand sells a variety of multicolored and brightly printed dresses, graphic tees, joggers and accessories.
Shakita is inspired by celebrities like the iconic Grace Jones and Erykah Badu and loves to channel their fierce energy through her own style. Her AART NYC store even carries a Grace Jones plaid crew neck sweater that reads “Give Yourself Grace.”See here)
