Mixing Metallics

Wearing a trend or a fabric you think might not be so flattering can be a bit scary. I like with food try anything once before I decide I like it or not. So I have mentioned before I am not a fan of pink but I am loving this light pink that is everywhere now. This is in my opinion the easiest and safest way to wear metallics and pink.  Top: JustFab Foiled HiLow Top   |  Denim: Rollup Slim Crop   | Backpack:  JustFab William   |  Shoes:  JustFab Leander    

Modern Grunge OOTD

What I love about fashion is that you can be anyone and express yourself how ever you like. Trends come and go and you do not have to have a defined style. I find it very easy to transition between glam to boho chic and turn a grunge look modern. I really like this tunic because you can wear it so many ways. Like how I am wearing it, or around your waist or wearing a slip and buttoning it up. 

Camouflage OOTD

I know it is Summer still but I cannot live without my Olive and Camo. It was a fairly cold and rainy day and I wore an all black outfit with this camouflage jacket that I am currently obsessing over. It is a great jacket to layer and to wear on a chilly day. It has pockets which is great to carry your phone. But I just had to use my other great item...the Rossi Handbag. A camo jacket is a wardrobe staple that you can wear so many different ways. You can pair it with denim, chambray top or a midi skirt for a feminine touch. I will be posting different ways to style when I get a chance.

How to rock Swimwear out of the beach!

When you live near to the beach you want to get the most out of it. I know I enjoy going out with my dog on hot days. Since we do not have the luxury to be a beach bum I have found ways to dress up my swimsuit for other occasions such as going out to the bar, or going shopping. It is always a good idea for us ladies to have versatile pieces in our closets. Layering your favorite swim top/piece is very easy. You can pair with a skirt, which is my favorite or with palazzo pants that are so comfortable and great for a bike ride. You can also use it as a crop top over shorts, denim or overalls. 

Ready for Business OOTD

There shouldn't be a reason your clothes don't allow you to have fun after work. It is so easy as to changing your shoes to something a bit more sexy like these strappy heels. So ladies get ready for Happy Hour because you can go from work to play in a matter or minutes. 

Poppy Red OOTD

I love olive everything...but sometimes you look like you wear the same outfit. To spice it up it is a great idea to change up the color schemes. You can pair it with reds or pinks for a fun and flirty look. So get out of your comfort zone and try it! 

Linen Moto Jacket OOTD

I am having so much fun styling the April Showroom pieces from Just Fab. I am in love with the colors and styles. My favorite color is Olive Green, when it comes to fashion. It is a great color for medium to dark skin tones. I love pairing olive green with Neutral accessories just like these. I know I have worn these shoes and handbag on a previous OOTD but that is because these styles are great!

From Work to Beach OOTD

Love the cute colors and styles for Spring, what I do not like is this horrible wind that does not allow you to enjoy it. I know, I know I should not complain but I like my weather warm not Hot or super cold. That means I can wear maxi skirts and maxi dresses like this outfit I have here for a day out in the city or boardwalk to beach. You can just tie a knot on the skirt and use at the beach! I also changed my wedges for the Dela sandal that is comfortable and perfect for a Boardwalk stroll at the beach.    Top:  Just Fab Floral Tie Back Top  | Maxi Skirt:  Just Fab Knit Maxi Skirt  | Shoes:  Just Fab Dela  & Hunter  | Necklace:   Just Fab (No longer available)  | Handbags: Just Fab Jamison & Morton Disclaimer: Some of the products were received for reviewing purposes.

Out in the Woods OOTD

With this heat all I would like to do is live in comfortable rompers. The problem is that not all rompers fit me and it seems like they are built for a specific type of body. When I found this cute romper at Windsor I knew I had to have it. It is so me I love the lace detail and the bell sleeve. My dear friend/photographer Vicky took these pics.

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hour full Coverage Foundation

I recently purchased the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hour full coverage foundation from QVC. Tarte is one of my favorite makeup brands so I had to give this a try. As you can see from the image bellow I had some face demons courtesy of my eyebrow threading so I was red all over. With this foundation it was so easy to hide them. The consistency is great sort of like when you are applying a really good soothing lotion...if that makes any sense. Along with the foundation I purchased the brush which I have to say is the best thing or the best brush that I owe. It is so soft it applies the foundation really well without leaving any streaks or lines.
