Happy first day of June! There’s Severe thunder storms in my area so I had to change into wellies before dinner. I know everyone has a dress with this print, at least down here, but when I found it in a pink shift style last summer, I adored it. It is a nice little beach cover up as well.

My hair is extra cute tonight because I wore it up. It’s just folded up and in to my hair band. Awesome how it looks so nice but it took two seconds to stuff into place! Notice also the Simply Southern croakie for my sunglasses around my neck; it comes to a perfect bow in back. If you were wondering what the print is, it is pink zebras!

I wore this to dinner at Blue Rock Pizza last month. It was unintentional but I ended up in all grey! I hadn’t planned on wearing anything super cute, but I decided to photo it when I realized it was an epic outfit. I probably shouldn’t have worn suede since it was raining, however, the color matched the stormy night perfectly!

Outfit of the Day: Retro Velvet

I felt like a version of Auora, Belle, or Ariel in this fabulous number. It’s originally from the fifties, it’s velvet with satin trim on the waist, and a bow behind that can be snapped on or off.

I wore this on Christmas Eve and it was a hit! It was also warm enough thanks to the sleeves.

Outfit of the Day: Hot Pink Hi-lo

This summer I was on a mission to find a cute Hi-Lo style dress. They are made to be longer in the back, and shorter in the front, like a mullet, only cool and chic. I’ve been wanting one in my collection of clothes, and just hadn’t found the right one, that is, until I went to the mountains. In Maggie Valley, in a surf/ski shop, I found this perfect beauty of a summer dress.

Look how vivid it showed up! I paired it with my beige GUESS wedges, and the Elegance insued. This is my fave sundress ATM. The material is silky, with a ruffled up texture, so it doesn’t wrinkle and it can be dressed up with a belt. Or for a more casual vibe, it can be used as a bathing suit cover up!

Outfit of the Day: Pastel Skater Dress

I’m not sure what you call this kind of dress, but to me it looks like an ice skating outfit. I ordered it online from Amazon and was happy that it fits perfectly. It has the option of wearing it without the spaghetti straps as well. I wore this out to eat on Valentine’s day this year! The waitress said I look like a little doll because of my look. Lol.

It’s a polyester blend and I had to iron it cause it has the tendency to wrinkle up. The pleats on the skirt remind me of Marilyn Monroe (I’m not even a big fan of her) or a cheer leader. It is a very feminine dress and it is my favorite. However, I don’t think it would look as dainty on somebody who’s a bit busty! It stayed in place though, didn’t flash anyone, but I had to be very careful the skirt didn’t blow up and out cause it is super short. The color IRL, is more mint green, it looks almost aqua on here.

 

I think I had on the Jeffree Star lip color Doll Parts.

It’s a fuzzy pic, but I liked it the best!!

Outfit of the Day: Checkered Sundress

Ah, the beloved sundress.You can style it alone with some sandals or pair it with a leather vest at night or put leggings underneath in fall. It is a wardrobe essential, but it doesn’t have to be basic!

This is another look from the summer, obviously, since I’d be frozen like a statue if I were wearing just this right now, so just ignore that! I love sundresses just as much as anyone else, however they are usually thin, soft cotton that tends to pic over time and shows wear incredibly bad. That is why I got rid of my old ones *tear* and purchased some newer ones over the summer. This dress is cotton, but it isn’t nearly as soft as the material Victoria’s Secret uses for their dresses. This is from Forever 21, and I love it because it doesn’t snag or degrade every wash, it is sturdy but still looks graceful. It has a pretty brass zipper all the way down the back, and two square pockets in the front that are nice and roomy for a cellphone or makeup, etc. It’s blue and white checkers, which is picnic chic, but also stands the test of time.

I got tan at the beach. It has long since faded, but the photos and memories will prevail!

Outfit of the Day: Beach hair and Suede

This is a look from this past summer. I guess I should post more outfits each month, but I get bored of just posting the same thing. It is far more interesting to post throwback outfits, especially when this kind of outfit is my fave. I get so tired of the winter weather and the same long sleeves and pants. Summer gives you ability to wear the cutest things.

This is from over the summer whilst I visited the beach at Wilmington, NC. The crop top is Forever 21, skirt is my favorite of all time from Max Mara and Miley Cyrus collection, lips by Kat Von D. My hair dried curly cause I was at the beach, but to achieve this scrunched loche look, use Soy Renewal Beach Spray by Sexy Hair!

Outfit of the Day: Texture & Neutrals

This is a throwback look that I donned a couple months ago when it was still nice and summery. I would say it’s one of my favorites because it’s super pretty, tiny, and very in style for the moment! Neutrals are BIG, I am not sure how long that will last, but IDC, I will always rock them because they are so flattering, simple, and chic no matter the occasion. The bottom is a bit large, so I have to stick out my stomach a little to keep it from sliding. I have a little black pleather crop top that goes with the mini too, for when I want to be matchy-matchy monochromatic!

The crop and pleather skirt are from Forever 21. Tartiest matte lip paint by Tarte.

Outfit of the Day: THIS IS HALLOWEEN

Like the Tim Burton-esque title? Lol. So do I!

So for Halloween at work, I was a medieval princess, but that costume was made for winter weather (it’s velvet) and since it was 80 degrees here in NC, you bet I changed! As I was in the shower debating what to wear for such a hot Halloween, I suddenly remembered I had my mother’s high school majorette uniform from the 70’s !!! It is pictured above, and although it looks way too short, she assured me it is supposed to be that length (they always wore nude tights underneath I think). The polyester was itchy and a bit stuffy, but I wore it most the night!

As we all know, since we are fashion forward, open-minded bloggers here, black lipstick is NOT just for Halloween, especially with the return of -and mainstream acceptance of- grunge 90’s style. I have been wearing black lips for about a year now and nothing feels quit as liberating. I felt like wearing Kat Von D’s studded black lipstick to give the majorette outfit more of an edge and maybe some irony. I love this hue because it is gun-metal, it has a blue/silvery shine to it that does not wash-out one’s complexion.

Sephora has cool shades of polish. I like to do my own nails so I have quite a few of their colors, and I like all of them. This one is a matte black that has glitter in it as well. If you don’t use a top coat, it is very rough, so be careful not to scratch your eye or pic clothing.

Outfit of the Day: Halter with Stripes

This is the perfect summer look, I am not ready for the cold weather to arrive, and I know it is coming. I’m taking advantage of my skimpy outfits until the real fall weather hits us! This skirt doesn’t look that great in photos cause the stripes blur together but in person it’s totally cute. I got it at Victoria’s Secret a few years ago and I like the thick texture and I usually tuck a shirt into it since it is a little big in the waist area. I could wear it on my hips, but it doesn’t look as cool as the high waist look. High waist is my favorite spot for skirts since it cinches my waist. The neutral little crop top is from Express, it was too adorbs to pass up so I snatched it at the beginning of spring this year.

I figured the green plants would offer a radiant atmosphere, I think I was right! Pretend I am in the tropics!! I’m wearing some jelly bracelets as well, and I can’t remember the eyeliner, but the lips are Posie K I beileve.
