A whole lotta...



Blazer: Sashimi; Tank: Forever 21; Pants: Forever 21; Heels: Traffic



So its the weekend again! I am posting another outfit from waaayyy back when. Of the pictures i took, only three were worthy of public display (lol..). Anyway, .I've worn this pants twice and im actually planning to wear it again with a coral peplum top i got recently (well a mth now). 

There are so many sales in stores right now, tops as cheap as $5-most of them are spring/summery but you can still throw on a jacket and call it fall. It's so funny to see these tops that start off at $20/$30 even $40 (lets say) now at $5/$6/$ 8/ $10 simply because stores are clearing out for their fall/winter collections some of which (as far as im concerned) are ridiculously priced. I already have an overload of sweaters, blazers and jackets (even a peplum one i  purchased in Jamaica nearly 3 years ago and never even wore) so i have no definite plans to go shopping this fall..i may pick up some nude combat boots..already saw a pair i like and maybe some sneakers ..a  top, a maxi skirt..i don't know..but no big hauls. I love shopping as much as the next girl (when i can afford to) but sometimes you end up buying stuff you already have (maybe in a different colour)  or stuff you don't even need and never end up wearing. When you think about it, not much changes, the same stuff you wore last fall/winter can be worn this fall/winter..your greys, blacks, burgundys thrown together with this seasons trending neon, mint etc etc.. whatever else is trending. If you have style, which you clearly have , you can (in my Tim Gunn's voice) "make it work". Anyways...that's all for now ..have a great weekend guys!!
kisses :)

Forever Casual






Dress: Forever 21; Clutch: Chi; Heels: Payless
 
Its amazing what a pair of heels can do for a 10 (or maybe less..i cant remember) dress. I always liked the combination of orange and pink so when i saw this dress i had to get it plus for the price ..why not!. This dress is clearly very casual, i wore it with nude flats during the day and towards the evening i put on some heels to have dinner. Im looking at this photo and i think i want to wear it as a top next...but with what colour skirt, im thinking black pleated leather since its about to be fall, what do you think?

"Sneak"y girls..





T-shirt: Forever 21; Skirt: Ross dress for less; Bag: Thrifted; Sneakers: Converse  


Hi guys!!! happy Friday! i'm such a terrible terrible blogger...i have to give it to those girls that up date their blogs every single day..i just cant seem to do it ..I'll start and get to maybe day 3 and then i start to slack off...i'm still taking pics of my outfits though so i will always have fashion for you....also I've been behind on checking up on my fellow bloggers (forgive me..i really am no good at this) ..i promise to get on that soon though. 

About the Look: I wore this outfit to go thrifting one day..i try to wear a skirt with shorts under so i can try on stuff but not get direct skin contact until i wash them..btw i never try stuff on directly..not because im scorning anything but because i break out easily on my back and chest (well since lately) so i try stuff over my t-shirt and my stretchy shorts. Anyway, the skirt is from Ross (old)and the t i picked up from forever21 where i pick up all my t's and cami's because they tend to be very cheap there...what do you think of this look?

Tropical Love and Happy Belated Birthday Blog!








Blazer: Target; Top: Thrifted; Bag: Jennifer Moore; Leggings: Love Culture; Heels: Gianni Bini


Hi everyone! TGIF! lol...that has gotten so lame right? but it still rings true..anyway i hope you guys are having or will have a super weekend.  I realized that all my photos are taken the same place (right outside the complex i live in)..it just so much easier to get dressed and then snap the photos before heading out ...also since lately it has been my saving grace since by late afternoon/evening (when i'm elsewhere) its usually pouring. Case in point, the past Wednesday i decided to snap some pics right outside the doctor's office (around 2 p.m) because it was starting to look a little bleak.. luckily i did because less than an hour later it was seriously pouring, i mean flooding i could barely see driving home... it was just crazy..anyway
About the look: This outfit is one of my favorites and i must admit that it was inspired by another fashionista (chicisimo), i of course put my own spin to it...instead of a white blazer and black top which she featured i went with a black blazer and  a green top, i did that to not be a complete copy cat and also to wear this shirt i found in the thrift store, it really is a nice green ..brighter than the photographs depict..anyways what do you think?

P.S. It just dawned on me that my blog is one year old (DOB: Sept. 1, 2011)happy belated birthday!!!!!... i mean im so out of touch right?
