2013,I'm Ready For Ya!

Hi everyone-

It's officially 2013 & I couldn't be happier. 2012 was probably the worst year of my life. Instead of making a list of resolutions for the new year, like last year, I've decided to make 2013 the year of HAPPINESS. I'm done worrying about stuff I can't control & focusing on simply being happy.

I believe 2013 will me MY year & I'm excited to see what it will bring. New job? New man? Financially stability? Who knows, but I'm ready for it!!

What are you guys' resolutions?

Happy New Year!

New: TJ Maxx & The Limited

Hey y'all-

I haven't had much time to shop these days, but I did manage a few short trips to stores while on my breaks at work. Tuesday, I managed to snag this black silky blouse from The Limited. I cannot wait to wear it! Yesterday, I ran into TJ Maxx/Home Goods to get a pair of booties. I got lucky with this gray pair. Somehow I found myself roaming through the clothing section on my wait to checkout & grabbed this green chiffon blouse by Tramp (yes, that's the brand). The gold buttons instantly drew me to this shirt. It was also refreshing not to buy anything black. Hopefully, I can squeeze in another mini shop trip before Christmas since I have no clue what I'm going to wear. Hope you all had a great weekend!

OFTD: Job Interview

Hi all-

 

Earlier today, I had a job interview. I am not one to wear a business suit no matter how conservative the field, so I opted for something similar to this. I wore a green dress with black polka dots & topped it off with a classic black blazer. I then added opaque black tights, black leather boots & my usually gold accessories. I still appeared business ready, without compromising my personal style- which is very important!

 

Would you wear this to a job interview?!

New: Charlotte Russe

Hi everyone-

I did something today that I haven't done in a long long while- SHOPPING! Actually, I ran down to Charlotte Russe while I was supposed to be working today to grab a shirt to wear tomorrow. Well, of course that shirt tunred into a few extras.

The first thing I got was this woven blouse. I  wanted something semi-conservative, but fun at the same time. This button down is perfect. It feautes lace on the shoulders & has a cute little cut-out in the back. I also gravitated towards this top because it's not black. I needed some color in my life.

Regularly $22.99

Paid $15

Well after picking up the blouse, I decide to take a gander at some jewelry. Most jewelry was only $5 today so I couldn't pass up these earrings & necklaces. The phone case I grabbed at the cash wrap as I was waiting to pay. It's super adorable.

Phone case: $8.99

Earrings: $5

Necklace 1: $12.50

2 & 3: $5 each

 

 

I can't wait to wear my new goodies! What did you buy this weekend?!

Orange, Faux Fur & Leopard= Perfection

Hi readers-

I hope you had amazing Thanksgivings, Black Fridays & Cyber Monday!! This is the first year I didn't go home, so no family time for me. I also couldn't participate in BF or CM because I was working- BLEH!

I did; however, get to grab drinks with one of my girl friends I hadn't seen in years this past weekend. That was great! So much FUN.

This is the outfit I wore Saturday night. Since I have to wear black, white & gray for work, I try not to wear any of those colors when not working. I opted for this bright orange blouse. I'm always looking for the opportunity to wear my faux fur vest. So naturally, I had to throw in on over my blouse. I had some trouble deciding which shoes to wear. I'd wanted to wear my patent leather taupe Sam & Libby pumps, but the weather was a tad chilly, so leopard booties seemed like the better choice.

All in all, I'm very happy with the way this outfit turned out.

Blouse: Old Navy

Vest: Francesca's Collections

Weekend Fun

Hey all-





How was everyone's weekend?! Mine was so much fun. I actually had an entire weekend off & one of my girlfriends came to visit. I wore this outfit Saturday to brunch (aka mimosas) since it was abnormally warm for Noevember. I've understood the purpose of a short sleeve sweater, but this one is extremely practical. It's not too thick, which made it the perfect choice.

Fall To-Do List

I love Fall; it's my favorite season. The weather cools down, blazers & boots become outfit staples, the AC can be turned off (hello, cheaper electric bill!). Every year, there a few things I always say I'm going to do/experience, but they never happen. This year, I've created a list of things to do this fall. Hopefully, I'll actually do at least onethis year:

Pumpkin Patch: Can you beleive that I've NEVER been to a pumpkin patch before?! I know, it's crazy. I'm not sure what I'd do with an actually pumpkin, but it'd be nice to go pick one out myself.



Apple-Picking: I know, I know... I've never done this either. It just seems like the perfect fall activity.



Vineyard: Obviosuly, you all know that I LOVE wine. I've only ever been to a vineyard in the spring. I'd love to visit one in the Fall.



 Football Game: Well, at least tailgate. I haven't been to a football game or tailgating in about two years. I seriously need this in my life ASAP! Plus, I miss Blacksburg.



Shopping: This one is a given. If I'm going to do all these things, I'm obvs going to need all new clothes for the aforementioned. Yes, I have a problem...

I just want to point out, I'm only using this pic, Idk what any of these stores are! LOL.



What activites are you most looking forward to doing this seaon?!

Geek-chic Glasses

Derek Cardigan 7004 Brown Tortoiseshell, $97

 

About a week ago, I came across a commercial from this company called Coastal. The commercial boasted about the great quality glasses they have at affordable prices. It also offered your first pair free. Naturally I was a little skeptical. Being someone who needs perscription eyewear, I know how expensive it can be. There was no way this company was giving away a fair for free.

A few days later, I sae a blog post about the company. The fashion blogger had actually taken Coastal up on the first pair free offer. She said it was legit. That same night, I searched the website & found a really cute pair of glasses. The offer was correct, I got my first pair free (only had to pay for tax & shipping/handling). I placed my order on Friday night & had a new pair of glasses Wednesday.

I am a bug fan of my new specs. Because I was getting such a good deal, I decided to go for an oversized geek-chic look. What do you think of my glasses?! Geek-chic?!

Ignore the bad quality of this pic, I had no intention of actually sharing it!

Work Outfits from the Back Room

Hello readers,

I know I've mentioned before that for work, I have to wear black, white and gray. I decided I'd show you a few outfits I've worn to work. Over the few months I've been with this company, I've aquired a closet full of these boring lovely colors. I try to be as fashionable as possible, butI'm finding that a lot of cute options just simply don't exist in these colors. If you have any suggestions of store that carry ruffley, flowy, extra feminie basics, please let me know!

Cardi: Forever 21

Shirt: American Eagle

Pants: Target

Boots: Bamboo

Necklace: Charlotte Russe

Watch: Michael Kors

Bracelet: H&M

 

Dress, Scarf, Boots: Target

Watch: Micahel Kors

(Obvs I wore this before Fall kicked in)

 

Blouse, Pants, Bootd: Target

Watch: Micahel Kors

(Love the little faux leather stripe on these pants!)

 

 

As I'm typing these outfit details, I am noticing I get a lot of my work clothes from Target. Hmm, I guess that's okay. I'm definitely saving money by not having to buy stuffy office clothes!

 

 

How do you spice up a black/white/gray combo?! Any suggestions?!

 

 

****Sorry for these mirror pictures, but aisde from living alone, I generally cover my store alone too. I really need to invest in a tripod!

Currently Coveting: Fall 2012

Hello readers!

There's so many amzing trends this season that I'm dying to try. I've compiled a list of the pieces I'm coveting & want in my closet.

Oxblood & Leather: These pants combine two of this season's trends- oxblood & leather. These wine colored faux leather pants can be found at H&M. Hello affordability! I've seen a few bloggers rocking these & they sem to fit very well. I can't wait to try these!

H&M, $34.95

 

Peplum: This is one trend I haven't tried yet. This particular top would be a perfect addition to my warbdrobe. For work, I'm required to wear nuetrals- black, white, gray- making this blouse a given. It's also sold at H&M.



H&M, $19.95

 

STUDDED LOAFERS: I've never been too keen on loafers, but there's something about them being adorned in studs that makes me crave them. Plus, who doesn't need a pair of black flats?! I saw this pair at ZooShoo.com. I've orderd a few pair of shoes from the site before, so I feel confident in purchasing this pair of studded beauties.

POSH Allure, Zoo Shoo, $44.90

 

Other things I'm on the search for: 

Gold-plated bracelets because I want to have an arm party.

A large black handbag with shoulder straps & gold hardware.

Black leather jacket.

Shoes!

 

What trends are you dying to try?!

Sunglasses 101

If you've been following my blog, you know I have a huge obsession with sunglasses, or sunnies, as I like to call them. These are a very important accessory to have, especially since they protect your eyes from the sun. Finding the perfect pair for your face shape can be a little tricky. Lucky for you, I have lots of experience in picking out sunnies & will let you in on a few tricks!

SQUARE FACE:
If you have a square shaped face, you have a strong jawline, broad forhead & a square chin. Your face is proportional in length & width. The best sunnies for you are ones with oval & round frames. You want to aviod frames that accenuate the angles of your face.



ROUND FACE:
You hace full cheecks, a rounded chin & few angles. Angular frames will sharpen your facial features. Rectangular styles with make your face appear thinner & longer. You want to draw attention to the top of your face so avaiod small & short styles.


HEART FACE:
You have a broad forehead & wide cheeckbones that narrow to a smaller chin. Round frames will soften the forehead. Frames with decorative temples will only draw atention to your forehead, so avoid at all costs.


OVAL FACE:
Lucky you! You can pull of all styles of sunnies!! Just be sure the frames aren't too large for your face (unless you're me & don't care).


Also, I highly advise you all to get lenses that are polarized. These lenses will cut down on a lot of glare & make driving or even playing sports outside a lot easier.

I also, recommend stopping by you local Sunglass Hut & let the experts help you find you the perfect sunnies!! Shop online here.
