Blocking the Road.


How much do I love this outfit?! After including it in my most recent video, I decided to actually wear it at work and I got an enormous amount of compliments with this one. I just love the trend of color blocking, I think it allows you to be more noticeable, captures such positive attention.  


I also particularly love the gold accessories and how it just pops out of the colors I am wearing, it is classy and chic.


I put my hair up on a bun in attempt to go all the way professional, I think it went perfectly with the outfit and the look that I was going for. I hope you guys have a good weekend and thanks for reading!

Working on a Budget.

This week I promised myself that I wouldn't shop at all...well, promises are made to be broken (lol)! To make myself feel better, I decided to make this video in attempt to justify that my shopping spree this week. I spent $100 for 8 items. That's got to be progress right?!

Black, Lace and Race Back.

Every so often as I think about how I can update and make the blog better, I find myself challenging my fashion creativeness. The newest challenge is doing a new page strictly for the Young Professionals: How you can incorporate the trends in an office attire, you can update your corporate look. So for those young or even those who are not so young but are looking to update your corporate attires, please look out for my newest page.


For this posting, my inspiration is a text message I got from my coworker who excitedly shared to me about a style TV show that said "Monochromatic Looks are In." The next morning, I was staring at my closet for about 15minutes trying to formulate some kind of an outfit for another work day and it finally occurred to me that monochromatic looks are in! Ha! Took my black pants and paired it with another black thing, how easy was that?!


My top here is actually a vest (bargain find for $5!) and I totally love it for all the details it has. The ruffles towards the bottom and the lace at the back and even it's race back style. I paired it with a cropped F21 pants and some red details to break off the monochromatic look hence accentuating the waist.


*Wink* *Wink* This is a good look for my newest challenge! During the day at the office, I can wear this with a blazer or I can wear the vest with a sleeved shirt to a more appropriate work look.





Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Black Suede Shoes.


I finally found time to shoot again and this time, I have a featured item: Black Suede Wedge Ankle Boots. This particular item is from Steve Madden and is a recent addition to my growing shoe collection. I have worn it several times and have gotten so many compliments on it and questions on where I purchased it from, with that, I thought that this will be a perfect featured item.

I hope you guys enjoy the video and please subscribe to my youtube page as well! <3<3<3
