Pattern and Texture

Doing what I do at work. Fixing my fro.

I love the pleats and drape across the hip.

Man is it hard to take pics of myself. It’s also hard for me not to look confused. This is one of my favorite outfits.  I love comfort and this dress seals the deal. The slit is VERY open for dramatic reasons. Huge safety pin added for fun and to make the slit higher.

 

Dress/Tunic Transparente a funky little German line we carry in the shop.

Fishnet patchwork leggings from Target

Boots Target.

I love these boots a lady came into the shop wearing them and I ran out to get some. I love them.

Street Walking

I wonder where this guy was headed to when I hollered from my car “ You look fab, can you get in the door way so I can snap a pic?”. The hair, shoes, and bag, were just killer and his attitude of total confidence made this outfit rock. The best accessory is confidence. I swear by it.

Drape Me

I was in the shop unpacking boxes, as you can see by the open box in the  back corner, and decided to snap a pic.  This is an outfitted collected over the last 4 years or so. I love mixing things up. For this look I decided to work long angles and flowing lines. The cardigan I’m wearing is from Old Navy, black tunic is from Transparente an amazing European line we carry in the shop, and my PANTS, yes these are pants, are from a Canadian line Simpli also from my shop.
Being so short it’s hard not to look overwhelmed in a lot of fabric, but I know I pulled it off   SO soft and flowy, I felt like a breezy dream.
Oh my necklace or Celebration Rope, as we call it in the shop is from my very own collection.

How She Wore It

Here’s what I had going on today in the wardrobe department…

 

 

Vest, tank, and jeans: Old navy

I am a little chubby at the moment. I fell in love and gained a few but still fierce.

 

Purse: Anne Klein from the 80’s it was my grandmothers. She has the greatest taste.

Shoes: Pucci from 03. I love the cat eye ornament and the multi colored platform and heel. I wear these year ‘round. They are so comfy.

Earrings: Fresh water pearl and sterling silver chain.   From my collection @ the shop. Contact me for sales info. 

Today was about achieving total comfort and ease but still having that something special  going on.  I was able to work and still go straight from work to doing fun errands with my boyfriend without changing.  I love Old Navy for their solid colors. I just wish they had a better and more consistent pattern grader.

Twisted Sister

Its a little girl thing to wear your hair in cute little twists like Malia Obama. In my book they are a Daring Do. I love these sweet girls I found hanging out with their Grandmothers.


This is Kia. So sweet in her pink and green dress, jeans and twists. She rocks this look to 2nd grade.




This vision in pink was in front of my store and had just the cutest Roxy dress and little pig tail twists. She loved posing for the camera.




So twist it up ladies.
