Do It In Denim

Ok...take away the ridiculous boots, but keep everything else and you've the making of a keeper of an outfit!

...who really chose these boots??

I am in love with this Button Down Denim dress from Forever21.  

It's a nice little nod to 70's with it's choice of color, button front and front bodice detail and length.  I've been holding out on this post for a day or so and I've watched the reviews on this dress go from 2 to almost 5 stars.   

It's on my list.   I know where I'm going this weekend.

$27.90

Rag & Bone vs Everyone

Well...if they say "imitation is the best form of flattery"
                                                                   Rag & Bone must really be feeling the love.....

Their Talia v-neck sweater has been imitated SO many times it is ridiculous!

It is a great sweater I must say,  and I'll admit I'm actually wearing a knock off version of it by Derek Heart I picked up for 8 bucks at Rue21 as I write this post.  Although I do feel some type of way about knocking off designer pieces, in reality we all can't afford R&B prices.

Excuse the tired expression.  I working with a stiff neck here...

So while browsing around on Asos.com  I wasn't too surprised coming  across this.

This is Vero Moda's Varsity Style Long Line Sweater.  I will admit...I do like it just a tad more than the R&B despite the absence of the deep V neckline which I'm quite fond of.  

I like the length, added stripes on the hem and that it's 100% cotton.   I also like the price.  $47.38

,,,,,what an odd price.....

It's That Time of Year Again!

Oh Yes!!  My favorite holiday

Kicks off today people! I haven't been more excited for it let me tell you!

This year I plan on actually keeping track of the shows and checking out the wears for next season.

I've loved fashion since I can remember, so this has always been a favorite time of mine.   I grew up on Fashion File, House of Style with Cindy Crawford and the other show with the lady that I now can't remember.  Anyway, I always get hyped and happy than usually don't follow anything, but this year will be different.  This year I'm too damn excited!

What do I have my eye on...

Anchors Away..Done Up

So I bought it!

The Ocean Water dress from Great Glam.

It's really not as sheer as it appears on the website but it is a lot more tight than I thought it would be.  I do prefer something with a little more give but all in all this was a great buy.

(sorry for the blurries..I just couldn't get my camera to take anything decent this day)

Anchors Away

                                                  This is where I'm living this summer..

This is the Ocean Water dress at GreatGlam.com...and I do apologize for the tiny shot. 

I literally just purchased this dress as I write this post (Grant it I did stare at the web page for about 5 days before really deciding..but whatev.)

I usually make my own dress to prance around in in the summer ..and tho I did make a brown and white striped on similar to this..mine doesn't have the nifty hood.  I too enjoy how this is somewhat sheer making it still a practical choice for the shore (the youngin's in NJ trot around our beaches in very little clothing).

So yes..at 28.80 I will be calling this dress my place of residence for summer 2014

Disco Nights

                                                                 It's a 70's throwback!

Doesn't this dress have Marisa Berenson written all over it.  The deep V and striking red scream Studio54.  

It's actually a design by Shivdhara Fashion I found on Etsy.  It's made to order and is selling online for $149.00 shipping from India.  That's pretty sweet.  I love this color and the way they style the look.   ....What I don't love so much...the decapitated model....

A Paler Pink

You see this blouse here....

..It's only $13.80 from Forever21...and I'm about to be all over it!!!

I'm not necessarily a fan of pink but I really like the subtleness of this color. I mean you can't beat the price but kudos for versatility as well.  This is a future addition.

Floral Camo

OMG!!...again.. but happily this time.  You can not tell me these "The Skinny in English Garden" jeans from 7 For All Mankind are not awesome!

How friggin' nifty are these!!  Grant it..from the back your ass looks like a military inspired Monet...

 hence Floral Camo.. but you gotta give it to them.  They are different.

...I want them

Currently $123.00 @ Revolveclothing.com

A Lil' Bit-O-Leather

Huh....hhhhhmmmm   ...  Do we like these?

For $596.00 I guess you better be pretty damn sure you do.

Alice + Olivia Leather Zip Crop Leggings at Bloomingdales.com  ...something about leather CROP leggings.  I mean..they are quite nice..yes..  but how do you wear them without looking like you belong in The Pink Ladies, or sitting on the couch next to Peg Bundy?? ....Ah..nothing a lil sexy Betty Jackson Studded Ankle Boot can't fix!

...aaahhh  understood.

Oh Ombre!

..well I guess they're not REALLY ombre more than they're just two-toned.  WHATEVER! I don't really where shorts...in public...too much...unless they were made my me.....but these!!

I may just have to slip into these babies this summer. Mossimo Supply Co. Junior Dip Dye Denim short obviously from Target.  I really really like these.  Even when I saw them in the ad I wanted to go grab them that day forgetting the sale starts Sunday... not the day I get the sale ad.  They're $19.99 regularly but if I'm quick enough..I'm gonna grab them for $15.00.   So cute!

Maxi MANIAAAAHHHH!!!!!

I am loving this Made My Day maxi dress from Free People.

Not only is it a double whammy with the slit and elongated arm holes, but I love that it has pockets! It's effortlessly cool and sexy from the back. 

I'm actually diggin' a couple of the maxi dresses FP has happening.  The one above is only $88.00 but this beauty below...

$198.00  It is gorgeous though!  This is the Meadows of Lace Slip. Worn modestly it looks like..

Talk about a "Day to Night" piece.  Gorgeous.

Connecting The Dots

...and they tell me that my post baby thighs are currently a little too large to be wearing these...

These Polka Dot Skinny Jeans from LoveCulture.com are exactly what I want for summer!  Grant it they're black and I'm trying to get away from all that but they're too damn cute. $32.90 People!

Now I just gotta ditch the baby weight!

Striped Down

I'm all about sheer tops during the steamy days of summer...

This one will be a definite addition.

Although I am desperately trying to stay away from black/white combos, I will be making this one happen!


hahaha.. I even dig the cheesy tie!

Sheer Graduated Stripes Shirt $19.80 http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&Category=Promo_Edgy-Prints&ProductID=2000048733&VariantID=

Simply Sophisticated

I got my eyes on you..............

......Braided Leatherette T-Strap.   

I have a couple pairs of sandals in this color ...because if you follow my blog you know Cognac is my go to for shoes, so I don't necessarily need another pair.  But really for $24.50 who would turn these down?

...And Now There's This...

Uuugghh.  Talk about underwhelmed.

I used to LOVE Arden B.

Almost everything they had in the store I wanted to buy, but now there selling items like this....

... and this...... and this

... a cable "printed" top.. seriously?









 Now I did find a few nice things like this color block tunic but there weren't many.

 What happened to the sexy sophisticated clothes they used to sell??   Maybe my style changed once I got older, but I'm pretty sure I would have never walked out of the house in a fringe tube tunic!  Scary.

Oh Starry Night

Dazzling!  I'm all about this Stellar Top from Urban 1972.

                     It pretty much sparkles, without the sparkles!!








...cause Lord know I don't do glitter...
