Kelly Cognac Polka Dots

Morning Chica's! It's almost spring right? Well, it doesn't matter either way to me because I love bright colors. Today's outfit is the very essence of that. I can't wait for spring so I've already started :)

I paired my blue polka dot dress with a kelly green cardigan and chandelier necklace. I threw on my cognac boots for comfort, but also because they are a neutral shoe.

I am loving the result! What do you think?

Peplum & Pink Chic

While trying to find an outfit for church yesterday, I had many options, but was limited because of the weather. However, I managed to snap a few picks before my ride arrived of some of the outfits I had to choose from.

This one is a lace peplum top, hot pink pencil skirt and  a aqua blue chunky necklace (that I have yet to wear might I add). I like the contrast of the pops of color while the black serves as a very classic background. Now, that I think of it, I should've just worn this outfit with my black close-top pumps by Marc Fisher, but these shoes are banging tho. I wanted to wear them sooo bad lol

In any case, I didn't, but once all the snow is gone, this outfit it waiting in the wings :)

Fab February Find #15, #16 and #17

Look what I found on POSHMARK!!! I think I'm a little addicted... no comment lol

This is the gold clutch I was blogging about in my last Fab February Find post... cute right?

I'm still waiting on these in the mail as I just ordered them last night :)

I am a sucker for chandelier earrings and these deep coral earring are to die for.

And these vintage-inspired earrings are my life right now. They are sooo... sexy! I can't wait to dress them up and down and all around.

Oh and did I mention? I got this entire bundle on PM for a whopping $10!!!! Yes, I am a bargain-deal-making diva :)

Solange Knowles: Fashion Beast

Chica's, it goes without saying that I am in love with Solange Knowles fashion statements. She dresses to impress and even her most relaxed looks are edgy and eye-catching. So, instead of repeating how much I adore this fashionista, let's just look at some pics together!

You'll be seeing some of these pieces and looks in upcoming blogs with my own spin on them of course! Until then...

Fab February Find #4

Fab February Find #4

I was surfing PoshMark... yet again, when I came across this hot pink wristlet clutch. I had already told the seller that I wanted a white summer dress from Gap she was selling (which will be styled in a later blog post), then I added this to the bundle. I got both for $20! I'd say that was a pretty sweet deal considering the never-worn Gap dress was $60 retail. I made out like a bandit.

The clutch has a leather-like texture that makes it feel more luxurious and easy to dress up or down. It's the perfect size for a wallet, cell phone, lip balm, and mini-Altoids (which I can't live without btw), etc.

Love it!

Mellow Yellow

Hey Chica's, Happy Saturday! Today was a very low-key day for me, but of course I still dress for any possible occassion. If you know me, you know I loooovvvveee bright colors; hot pinks are my very favorite and I love me some yellow! I had my two girls with me today (no school) so being comfortable is an absolute must.

I bought this skirt in yellow and coral from Old Navy on clearance for $3.00 each. The skirt is cotton, very lightweight (not the best option for windy days btw, unless you want a Marilyn Monroe moment) and breathable. The white tee is a heavier cotton with a little spandex also from Old Navy ($8.50).

These mustard flats... I adore! Super comfortable and because of the color against my complexion, can be easily worn as a "nude" neutral with several outfits. These were $10.

The rest of my outfit is thrifted. My dark wash denim blazer was $4.98, the yellow wooden beaded necklace was $1.98, and the light brown clutch with a woven detail (see below) was $2.98.

My outfit's total cost: $31.44! Wow, I can't believe how little I spend to look so fabulous sometimes. I live for a sweet deal!

I was feeling very mellow in my yellow today :)

Chanel-Inspired Croc Clutch

Hey Chica's! Check out my latest thrift find: A Chanel-Inspired Croc Clutch!

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS CLUTCH that I spotted from about 20 feet away while rummaging through dress racks at my local thrift store. I saw the chain handle first. Maybe it was the sparkle of the gold chain that caught my eye, but I immediately thought "Chanel!"... I dropped what I was doing and moved quickly to the handbags section. It wasn't Chanel, but this was probably better since I've been dying to find a Croc Clutch forever that didn't cost me an arm and a leg (smile).

As soon as I got home, I threw my other bags on the floor to try on outfits that would go with my amazing find. I fell in love with everything about it. Not only was it a purse, but the chain was removable so I could carry it as a clutch depending on my outfit... but wait! That's not all. I hooked the ends of the gold chain together and threw it around my neck as a necklace! I could double it, too! (I am such a genius btw lol) You can't get much better than finding an item that has not 1, not 2, but 3 super chic functions!

Even if that isn't enough excitement over one little purse... I only paid $1.98 for it. BANG!!! My day has been made lol

Sincerely,
