Boots Boots Boots!!!

I am SO ready for fall. As much as I love warm weather I am super excited to break out the boots. Speaking of boots I just recently ordered a pair from Shoedazzle.com. I am crazy about my brown Steve Madden 'Lakke' boot, but I'm ready for a black pair. Also, if you join now you get 25% off your first purchase for the first week which is what I did. They were only $50 and with 25% off I was able to snag them for only $37.50!! Amazing deal! I haven't gotten them in the mail yet but as soon as I do I'll make an update and take some pics for you girls!

As much as I wanted the other boots I didn't want to spend $100, and honestly I was afraid that they might be knock-offs. But these ones are great, but the only thing I don't like about the boots are the zipper. They're regular zippers, but they're not that noticeable. I guess we'll see when I get them!

By the way, they are the Fanesia boot in black.

Those are the boots I ordered from Shoedazzle, cute right? Also, can we please just take a moment and talk about how wonderful the oxblood color this Fall is? I really love it, it goes with so many looks, dressy or casual. True oxblood should be slightly cool-toned so it works really well with blacks and charcoal, as well as with a variety of brown shades.

Blush and Hot Pink

The thing I like most about these these Christian Louboutins is that the spikes are in the same blush/nude finish as the patent leather shoe. It makes for a less harsh spike, so you have either play up the color with a feminine look or play up the spike with a more edgy look.

College Life: With the BFF(you know who you are).

College Life


Ever since my best friend and I were in 10th grade we decided that we are going to college together. We're going to dorm together, party together, and study together. That's just how we role. And above is most likely what we're going to be wearing... matching and all. In a perfect world the Starbucks Caramel Frappuccino would have extra caramel (you know who you are), but life isn't perfect, so there ceases to be extra caramel. 

What Happened??

Whaaaat??? A SPAM blog? Ok so maybe I've been posting very frequently, but oh my goodness I can't believe my blog was down for a day because Blogger thought it was a spam blog! So I apologize for that! I took it as a sign to make more in-depth blog posts, because it's more about the quality than the quantity. So I'm going to try harder to make more informative blog posts. If you have any requests please leave a comment! I'd love to hear from you, so I won't feel like I'm writing for nothing. 

 Also, remember the boots I talked about in my very first blog post? Well, I might be getting them! I'm excited! Getting something new is like a high for me, and I'm sure there are plenty of other fellow shopaholics who can agree with that.

I Feel the Holiday Season Coming!

I Feel the Holiday Season Coming!


I know it isn't even Halloween or Thanksgiving yet, and many kids in America just started school, but I just couldn't resist making a holiday party outfit. What could be better than a sparkly tweed skirt? I mean really? Pair it with jewel toned purples and festive reds and it's perfect!

Fall Outfit: Rocker Chic


Fall Outfit: Rocker Chic


A leopard sweater paired with skinny jeans and rocker booties make a basic Fall combo. But pair this look with a statement chain necklace and a jeweled tote bag and it went from boring to fabulous! Also, may I just say that this Jimmy Choo boot is terrific. They make killer heels, but they do some other stunning shoes as well.

I love the mix of neutral colors, which also happen to be contrasting, with the pop of magenta. It's a very fresh look. The polka dots and patent leather bow flats make this very girly and polished.

Night in the City

This outfit features some of my all time favorite designers: Allsaints, Helmut Lang, Haute Hippe, Yves Saint Laurent, and Chanel.

If I Could Design My Best Friends Bedroom

If I Could Design My Best Friends Bedroom

If I was going to re-design my best friends room I would make it very calm and relaxing because she is a busy busy girl and needs a room for herself. Her favorite color is blue, but instead of doing a true blue I went with a muted gray toned blue. This makes the room look a lot more sophisticated. To create a balance I think going with a darker wood floor and a mocha wall color evens out the light and dark. 
And who doesn't want a pair of Christian Louboutins?

Looking Back on Summer 2012 Trends

Summer is one of my favorite seasons, and part of that reason is the fun trends that come up every year! This year's hit-list include:
  • Bandeaus- worn under sheer tops, backless tops, and tops with deep armholes.
  • Colored jeans- especially pastels and brights!
  • High-low skirts and dresses- probably the biggest new trend of the Spring/Summer.
  • High-waisted bottoms- among the most popular were the high-waisted denim cutoffs in fun prints, dye jobs, and decked out in studs.
  • Arm Candy!!- Stacking a watch with bangles, friendship bracelets, cuffs, and tons of other baubles. 
  • Crochet tops- great for layering over bandeaus and bikinis!
  • COLOR- and tons of it! The most popular colors this Summer included mint green, neon anything, tangerine, and white.
