Peachy Keen!

They say the best outfit's are the unplanned one's and in my eyes, yesterday's outfit is one that fit's that saying to a tee. Yesterday, for work, I wore a orange short-sleeve shirt atop a sleeveless peach shirt with it's tail sticking out (*) and hot pink skinny jeans (*). My accessories were big hot pink hoop earrings (*), gold and pink bangles (*), my granni's pearl bracelet (*), two beaded gold bracelets, a tan cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*), and my tan multi-colored wedge heels (*) (for work, I changed out of the heels though, I wore gold flats, not to be pictured). This outfit has lots's of personality and sass because of the color and it's also preppy (shoutout to my mommy, I get my preppyness from her :)). Hope you guy's like. Sound off in the comments and let me know.

Blue-Gray Clouds

Hi, you guys, how you doing? I just wanted to do a quick outfit post on an outfit I wore this past Tuesday. Tuesday was my off day for this week and so I wanted to just throw on something cute and simple, but still me. To achieve the cute but simple look, I went to my sundresses (they're one piece so it's so simple, yet stylish) and pulled out a gray and blue striped sundress that I've worn before (*) but this time, I edged it up a little by adding a Menswear vest (*). Menswear worn by women is very popular right now, so this change in styling still works. Another way I edged it up is by adding gray cloth creepers in. I've been looking for some creepers ever since I saw one of my favorite fashion bloggers, Karen Blanchard of wheredidugetthat.com wear them. I fell in love with the way she styled them and wanted to try it out myself. My other accessories were big silver beaded/keyed hoops (*), a buckle ring (*), three silver stackable rings (*), a silver and turquoise ring, a silver stretch watch (*), and a tan cross-shouldered purse/clutch (*). I wore my hair in a messy bun as not to distract and because it's a simple style. Hope you guys like. Sound off in the comments and let me know your thoughts.

Correction-these shoes are not creepers (unfortunately, :(), they are more like Oxfords...my very first pair at that.

Sooooo, about two weeks ago, I went back to Memphis with some friends to hang out and fellowship with each other. We went to the zoo (I haven't been since I was a kid, I forgot how big it was) and the mall (we got there so late because of traffic so we only had time for these two activities before hitting the road). With that being said, I decided to share with you my outfit for the day. I wore a light denim blue jean vest over a neon green see-through sleeveless shirt and a blue with white stripes, high-waisted bodycon skirt. My accessories were silver beaded/keyed hoops, a buckle ring (*), three stackable rings (*), a silver punctured ring, a silver stretch watch, a blue cross-shouldered purse, and neon green sandals to match the shirt. I love this outfit for many reasons; one of them being that every piece is so versatile; you can dress every piece up or dress it down... which brings me to another outfit I'm posting as well.
In this second outfit, I chose to show how the skirt could be worn more dressy. I wore this particular outfit this past Sunday to church. I wore a sleeveless peach see-through shirt with a khaki-colored tank underneath and the blue skirt. My accessories were big hot pink hoops (*), a pearl-stranded bracelet, gold bangles (*), a tan clutch (*), and a pair of nude pumps (*). I like this outfit because its very girlie and colorful. Hope you like these outfits. Sound off in the comment section and let me know your thoughts.

Bonus-I just want to tell yall a cool fact I found out at the zoo while checking out the apes. I found out that my hands and feet are about the size of a kid ape (I believe, could possibly be teenager, I've forgotten since then). Isn't that crazy?lol...

 Hi, you guys!I'm finally back after not blogging for a while,soooo...I decided to share with you a quick outfit post on an outfit I wore sometime last week. This outfit is an ode to my tomboy side, BUT with a twist- I made it very girlie. For this outfit, I wore a gray beanie (*), a gray three-quarter length cut-off shirt, a gray and dark silver pinstripe Menswear blazer (*), and black cargo pants. For my accessories, I wore big purple hoops, a purple, silver spiked bracelet, a black bangle with smaller purple and silver bangles, a silver buckle ring (*), three silver stackable rings (*), and my black, white, and purple Converse Chuck Taylors. I love this outfit because it shows my inner tomboy while still allowing my girlie side to shine through (i.e. the cut-off shirt and the purple). Hope you guys like it.

Blue

So, yesterday was a pretty regular day for me, I had to work...and so I decided to share my outfit for the day. I wore a black scooped-neck collar blazer and a long, strapless turquoise sundress with my leopard scarf. My accessories were gold bangles, black cuffs (*), gold hoop earrings, and black flower sandals. I wore my hair in a parted down-the-middle, low ponytail look to keep it simple. Let me know your thoughts and have a wonderful day.:)

Let's Go Downtown

So, last Friday, I had a meeting to go to and I felt like wearing my new colorful wedges out, which made for a very cute AND colorful outfit. I wore a gray lapeled blazer over my white cross t-shirt (*) with blue jean shorts (*). Sounds a little plain right? Well...here comes the spice, ;). For my accessories, I wore a leopard-print scarf (again, what else? I love the print) (*), hot pink hoops BUT with a twist (I added silver keys to them (by now, you know I have to be different, it wouldn't be me if  I wasn't), a turquoise and tan purse (*), a black cuff, a black-gold spiked cuff,light and hot pink bangles, a big, chunky green cuff, a blue cuff, and my tan wedges with the multi-color heel. I love this outfit because it's so different, so cool. It's one of those funky, downtown sort-of outfits in my opinion (hints the title). Hope you guys like it, sound off in the comment section and let me know your thoughts.

Tomboy Chic..

Every now and then, I feel the urge to pull out my inner tomboy and put her on display; this outfit, for work one day last week, is no exception. I wore a white t-shirt, a Men's gray pin-striped vest, and hot pink skinny jeans (*) with  black flats (*). I wore a gray beanie (*), black and white glasses (*), big hot pink hoop earrings, light and hot pink & silver bangles, and a black bangle. I love this outfit because it is very comfy, and the added bonus is that it's still very girlie while being so casual. Let me know your thoughts.
