My Style: neon crossbody bag

I wanted to show you guys the new purse I got for myself for my birthday. Last week I was at Target checking out their purses and I came across a great find, a neon cross body bag. Even better, it was on sale for $17! I quickly snatched it up and am so glad I did. That evening I saw one of my favorite bloggers rocking a very similar style except hers cost quite a bit more. I like that my bag was cheaper because while it is a fun bag to wear for the summer I doubt that neon will be a trend that lasts forever so I didn’t want to splurge on something that I probably won’t be wearing for years to come.

 Still, I’ve already had the chance to wear it once and I can’t wait to wear it again! You can check out my pics for one way that I styled it, but I am already creating styles in my head for the next time I wear it. And the next time you’re in Target check their purses section because you might be able to score one as well. And if you are more of an online shopper I put together a collage of similar purses, where you can find them and how much they’ll cost you (mine is the Target bag to the left).
Here are some of the pics I took of my new purse.




My sister also got me the cutest watch/bracelet from Forever 21 for my birthday as well. It wraps around the wrist twice and the watch part looks like a lock, it's so adorable! It was hard to get a picture of it but I tried.

 
Ok well, I'll be back soon with more pictures but until then...

Lots of love,

My Style: New wardrobe pieces

Last week I told you that I recently purchased some new items from Amazon and that I was waiting for them to come in well they finally came and I love them. I was going to split them all up into different posts but I just can't wait to share them with you all. Ok well, let's get started!

First, my new black bag. It's so gorgeous and structured! It's just what I need for work and for everyday. I have not stopped wearing it out since I've got it. I'm in love. Check it out below. It is the LUCCA Black Glamour Padlock Designer Inspired Shopper Hobo Tote Bag Purse Satchel Handbag w/Shoulder Strap  
and it is amazing! And it was only $29.99!! It is so big that I can carry all my fave items around without it looking like it will explode.


Next, would be my new black oxfords. They are the womens casual lace up oxford shoes in black from Room of Fashion. I also got these on amazon and they are great. I have a pair of brown oxfords from Forever 21 that I got in my size (9) and they are so tight I can't really wear them for long so when I ordered these I got a 10 just in case, they are a bit big but I would rather have them big than small. I literally can wear them with anything and I that is something that I need. 







Next, my Strip27 Velvet Penny Loafer Flats in leopard from Make me Chic. They are just what I've been looking for. The perfect blend of cute and comfortable. I also bought these in a 10 and kind of wish I would have got the 9 but they still work and that's what matters. So if you order these get them in your true size. 








And lastly, my new Lace-Up Bootie Wedge in black from Go Jane. I have been seeing this shoe all over the blogs and on celebrities and knew immediately that I wanted a pair. They are heels which are appropriate for work but fun so that I don't feel too buttoned up. I searched everywhere but no one had what I wanted. Then, I found them on Amazon. They were adorable and perfectly what I wanted. The whole reason I ordered everything else in this post was because I was getting these and wanted to have a complete order (and let's face it I love to shop). These were the last item to ship and I have to say, they weren't what I expected. Now don't get me wrong I do like them but they are so much taller than I expected them to be. When I first pulled them out my initial thought was Oh my God I ordered hooker heels. Still I wanted to give them a chance and so I wore them to work yesterday. Initially I got them to wear with skirts and black tights to make my legs look super long but I decided for my first test drive I should probably go with long pants. Now, let me say this they are super comfortable and they are growing on me but if you are not a fan of sky high heels do not get these. Here is how I styled them for the first time. I really think they have potential and they are beautifully made I just don't know how to style them and I think that's my biggest problem. Anyone have any suggestions?









Well there you go, my new babies. I love them all and can't wait to incorporate them into my wardrobe, so stay tuned!


Can you believe it's already December?!

Lots of love,

My Style:Fall Fun!

I am so ready for fall. I'm serious, it is my favorite season. I love the colors of the leaves and the crisp weather (although in Florida we don't really get much crisp weather, steamy...yes, crisp...not so much). I chose this outfit in honor of fall. The shirt was what started this outfit. I found it at my thrift store for $1 and knew I had to have it. And then the rest of the outfit just fell into place. I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed wearing it.


I found this great headband from Forever21 that had feather coming down from it. And I really liked the feathers for this outfit because the colors were similar. So I took the chain with the feathers off the headband and instead put it on a bobby pin. And voila! I get the feathers without the headband. I guess you could call it a DIY but really I didn't do much.

Also, you know how I've been searching for a new bag? Well the search is over! I found this cute puppy on Sunday at Forever21. I wasn't planning to buy anything, I only went because my sister cannot shop alone (not sure why, I guess she just needs a second opinion) and we were about to leave when I saw it. It was gorgeous and I immediately fell in love. It slightly reminds me of a Birkin bag (except, you know, way cheaper) and so I marched right up to the counter and bought it and I haven't looked back yet. It literally goes with everything! I'm so obsessed with it. My only issue is that it's not very big, it's probably about a medium size bag and I'm used to huge ones so there is that but I knew that going in. I even asked at the register if it came any bigger lol (they looked at me crazy, then said no). But yes, if you are looking for a new purse as well I'm telling you now head to Forever21. Here are some shots of my new love.





Happy Thursday! It's almost the weekend yay. And I'm supposed to be doing something different this weekend. At least, that's what my fortune cookie said at lunch today. Oh, and in case you've been living under a rock and didn't know Happy National Noodle Day! I hope you got some noodles to celebrate like we did here at work lol.

Lots of love,
