Black Fringes

Hi Loves,

I've been sticking to skirts and dresses since the weather in Maryland has been getting out of hand!

I always get the "Where are you going?" questions when I leave out. I just love to look stylish even while running errands. Being comfortable and looking stylish is a must for me lately, especially after a sprained ankle!

Fringed anything always makes a fun look. I paired the fringe top with cute fringe sandals.

Hourglass

Hi loves, 

How would you like to get the appearance of a smaller waist or create the illusion of a curvy figure, no matter what size or shape you are?????  Most curvy girls wouldn't mind perfecting their hourglass figures; While most slim girls wouldn't mind embracing the illusion of an hourglass figure for a day! Whether you're slim or curvy, there's one trend that adds the icing on the cake for any figure.

I fell in love with the peplum style trend! As a curvy girl they save my life in multiple ways. Not only does it accentuate my curves, but they also minimizes my (not so flattering) midsection.

I will admit, that I am guilty of abusing this trend for work. How can one resist a match-made-in-heaven outfit? The perfect look with this trend includes a great peplum top with a pencil skirt. Since I'm a huge fan of bold colors and prints/patterns, it's only right that I wear a peplum look the right way (Bold peplum top with a printed pencil skirt!)





"All woman have an hourglass figure. It's just that we tote around different amounts of sand."

Expensive Taste

Hi ladies!
 
As a child, many of us were completely clueless. Some of us believed that "money grew on trees!" I just knew that when I grew up, I could just go swipe a card or write a check for whatever shoes, clothes, or purses I wanted!
 
Boyyyyyyyy was I wrong! Reality soon kicked in a few years ago for me, when my parents began handing me bills! The day that I began spending my own money, I learned that I had "Champagne taste on a beer budget" (Sad day!). I've always been taught to adapt to my environment and accept things for what they are.
 
Sooooooo... I learned how to shop on a budget!(after bills---hate them!) The sale rack doesn't look so bad after all! 
 

 I got this shirt for a steal deal! Only $9.50!!! I dressed it up a little more by tying it in a knot.

 
 I paired the shirt with an assymetrical skirt and fringe sandals!

 
The most expensive thing I'm wearing for this look was the sandals that I found on sale for $20!

What shopping lessons have you learned after spending on your own????
