Sunday Brunch

February 6, 2012

20120206-114628.jpg

My Sunday consisted of a wonderful brunch at a place close by that I love to go to called Silver Dinner that serves breakfast all day! :) The day didn’t get any better than that. Seriously. Afterwards I stayed home and munched on an unhealthy amount of Oreos for rest of the night while dozing off to the Super Bowl halftime show ( which in my opinion could have been so much better) but oh well.

Throwback

February 5, 2012

jean jacket: New York & Co, floral dress: Charlotte Russe, shades: Target, accessories: Charlotte Russe & Forever 21

I happened to dig back into the depths of my folders of photos on my laptop and came across one of my old favs. For some reason I just really loved this one. I think I got this dress from Charlotte Russe? Anyways, every time I wore this everyone thought it was two separate pieces but it isn’t. It is one piece with two layers on the bottom. Shame I had to stop wearing it because it was starting to get kind of short. Oh well, life goes on..

Creating Your Personal Style

December 19, 2011

Creating your own personal style doesn’t always come easy to everyone. For some, it takes more time and research. Yes, research. This will help you figure what it is that makes your style unique. Everyone has a style whether you know what it is or not. Here are a few steps to help you get started:

1. Get Rid of Everything That Isn’t You
Sometimes we buy things and at the moment we love it, then later we realize that we hate it and isn’t a reflection of us or our style.

2. Know Your Body & Colors
Make sure that you know your body, what shapes and colors flatter your skin tones and shape. Certain colors are slimming and others can make you look bigger.

3. Develop Your Signature Piece
Pieces that you wear with almost all of your outfits or a way you always put your outfits together. (always wearing heels, jeans, sunglasses, a dress, a hairstyle, etc) (bright colors, dark colors, vintage, bold, etc)

4. Mix Multiple Styles Into One
This will help create the ultimate personal style.

5. Know What You Like & Dislike About Yourself
Helps you to know what parts to highlight and which to hide. If you live your legs, show them off! If you live your shoulders, wear one shoulder tops, tops with both shoulders out or tube tops.

6. Keep Your Style In Mind Next Time You Shop
Before you shop again make sure that you know what you “need” and “want”. Resist going for trendy items because your staple pieces should always come first! (then the trends). Make a list of before you go shopping and stick to it!

Tip: Keep in mind that your personal style and your wardrobe should also be a reflection of your lifestyle.

A New Direction

October 1, 2011

Have you ever looked back to the past and came to realize how when you where younger there was always someone you wanted to be like personality wise or dress like? Funny how when you get older, shit starts to set in and get real. You start to think of how you can set yourself apart from others. Be different. Stick out. Ya know, develop your own thang. Not by any means is finding yourself easy. Trust me. I know. Some people don’t find themselves until..well..when they consider it to late. I can’t tell ya’ll that I’ve found my damn self but I can say that I am still in the process and I can share my thoughts with you.

I recently decided to change my college major from Fashion Retail Merch to Physical Therapy. I know, major change. But that’s not the crazy part. I feel like I’ve been on this long as journey just to get ready to start another long ass journey… ya know..? It’s a never ending process. Before I changed my major to Fashion Merch it was Fashion Design. Obviously, I’ve come to terms with the fact that life will throw me in any direction. A direction that I am not prepared for. A direction that I don’t wanna take. A direction that I don’t wanna take but would be best for me in the long run. Ya get what I’m saying here?
