Maximize Your Shopping, One Shirt Styled Two Ways

Gone are the days of picking up random pieces without actual visions or plans of how I will wear them. 

 There has been times I've purchased something thinking "I can do something with this" and not actually wear the item. 

 Now,  that I'm smarter with my money, I only shop with purpose, especially this Black Friday weekend.  

 When I eyed this high-slit sheer maxi button down top I knew I could style it a few different ways.  Olive is the new black and very on trend so I had to grab this top.

 Its great for a classy or dressy look and it will be a staple in my wardrobe.

Calm Down

Just a quick post to share my new do; yes, I'm a blonde now!  Anyone that has been following me on Instagram have seen my new hair color for about two weeks now.  Its July an my birthday month so I wanted to have sexy, exciting hair.  This hair is from a previous install which can first be seen here.  I colored the hair myself from bleaching my Peruvian virgin curly texture hair from Chic Elegance Virgin Hair Boutique.  Blonde hair, pechy lips and denim is all I needed for my casual outfit of the day outfit.  To put the finishing touch on my look I wore accesories from Streetz Of London.

Date Night: Studs And Cut-Offs

Good food and great company, what else can a girl ask for?  Great shoes of course!  As it gets warmer outside my clothing gets shorter!  The weather for date night called for some leg action and what better way to compliment your legs than with gorgeous shoes?  My date night outfit consisted of one of the hottest trends of summer; the gladiator sandal.  This studded strappy sandal from Zara is sold out but you can find a similar shoe here.  This shoe has a bold appeal to it so I paired a royal blue and a matte red lip color to make my simple outfit pop.  Chunky accessories and dramatic makeup transforms distressed shorts into a causal yet dressed up look.  I had a great time in the heart of Charlotte's uptown scene at a nice restaurant called Delta's.  Even though I didn't need the extra calories I enjoyed my dinner greatly and plan to go back for seconds.
