Tomboy Chic
In my younger days my mother would always wonder what happen to my hair during the day because I would come home after school like I had gotten into a fight. I would play rough at school and I didn’t particularly care what my hair or clothes looked like. To be quite honest with you, I only comb or brush my hair once a day. My husband is always getting on me about brushing my hair (and pulling my fingers through it doesn’t count in his book) … lol I’m most comfortable wearing flats but I enjoy looking cute. I love styling my sneakers for a chic tomboy look. Lately…

Pink & Sequin
This post contains affiliate links Pink has been influential in my wardrobe this winter season. From the Banana Republic hot pink wide leg pants, the inspired InStyle look I recreated with a Covergirl Couture pink maxi dress, to this pink sequin skirt. I treated myself to this pink sequin skirt for my birthday because one it was on sale 70% off and two it is super cute. It’s on sale now for 48 bucks for President’s Day Weekend grab it while supplies last. Available in pink, gold, or green. This skirt is bold and screams fun. I styled it with a stripe oxford shirt, Brooklyn sweatshirt to throw over my…

Taking A Risk With Fashion
Hi Murray friends and family! We are half way through the month of January and I’m excited because my birthday is approaching. My husband keep asking me what do I want for my birthday but I can’t decide. I’m trying to take it easy on him because we have some hard goals we are trying to accomplish so I guess I’ll come up with something soon. This post contains affiliate links A couple of weeks ago I took a risk with fashion. I’ve been admiring the snakeskin trend this fall and I decided to purchase a pair of the Steve Madden Kimari boots after the holiday season. I caught a…

It’s Banana Republic
This post contains affiliate links Have you ever fell in love with a pair of pants? Not literally but you really like the way they fit so you buy two pair in two different colors or All Colors if you are Oprah… haha Guess what store I’m talking about…. Spoiler Alert It’s Banana Republic. Well I have to admit I did. When I first saw these green high rise wide leg pants from Banana Republic I was sold. I purchased the hot pink pair too. I knew they would be comfortable because typically whenever I buy trousers from this store I always adore the fit. I’m debating now how I’m…

Say Yes to the Dress
This post contains affiliate links As you all may know JCrew is one of my favorite stores. I believe I fell in love with the brand during my college (1991) days. At that time I couldn’t quite afford anything because like most college students I was “Pretty Broke” (literally)… I would usually shop their sale rack for socks and flip flops. I still shop their sale rack today but I really had to back then. Now I just stalk the items I want until they go on sale. I add my favorite picks to my wishlist under my account online. I log on to my account and check my email…

My Memorial Day Picks
Memorial Day is ahead of us and I thought I would share some looks for the holiday. They say Memorial Day officially kicks off summer. First of all Memorial Day is technically in spring so how does it kick off summer? Second who are they? Any-who I like to debate that July 4th kicks off summer because technically it’s after the 1st day of summer (June 20) and my summer will have officially started at this point. So whatever you choose to lean towards is solely up to you I’m just rambling…. lol So I’ve saved you some time and looked up some outfits for you guys. There are so…

Cherry Blossom Mini & Me
Hi guys spring is in the air, although some nights still feel like winter. I’m not going to complain because complaining is for suckers. Anyway this time of the year is particularly nice because all of the flowers are blooming and even though the weather isn’t just quite right yet we know it’s going to get better. In other news down the street from where I live there’s a beautiful Cherry Blossom tree. Every year I manage to find my way in front of my neighbor’s yard to snap some wonderful pictures. This year our outfits from Target blended in extremely well with the scenery. I’m having so much fun…

Polka Dot Style
So one of 2019 fashion trends this spring is polka dot. I personally don’t think it’s a trend, polka dot is a pattern I believe won’t ever go out of style. The Who What Wear Collection at Target really nailed it with the midi skirt and tiered ruffle midi dress. When I first saw the skirt in the store it definitely caught my eye. I like how it has the 1950s swing and length style. The black polka-dots pop off the vivid blue skirt. I added a nautica horizontal stripe shirt to change up the pattern a bit. I threw on my red Italian leather purse for a pop of…

Denim & Denim
You can never go wrong with denim. There are soooooo many ways to wear jeans. Did you that know jeans are made from denim or dungaree cloth. You are probably asking yourself what the heck is dungaree? Well my brother had the same reaction when he was around 8 or 9 yrs old when my grandmother told him to put on his dungarees…. lol I can only imagine the look or blank-stare on his face. We still laugh about it years later, LOVE that lady! But did you know that jeans were invented by Jacob Davis with the help of Levi Strauss & Co back in 1873. Oh I thought…
