Tee / Skirt, Similar Flowing version here / Shoes / Sunglasses / Earrings / Bracelets: Spiked / Blinged / Ring / Lipstick
I’m not one who ever needs an excuse to enjoy a glass of bubbly but today I have two! First, the hubby and I have outgrown our place and put in an offer on a new home today (cross your fingers for us).
Second, I’ve just celebrated a month of being an owner of Fashion Conveyor! It’s an authentic luxury resale shop that has items by designers like Chanel, Louboutin and Louis Vuitton (oh my). Give it a look if you haven’t already!
What are your reasons for popping bubbly lately? I’d love to raise a glass to you.
WELL HELLO 2014!

Choosing the star of my first 2014 blog post was virtually a no-brainer. Dallas got up to 63 degrees yesterday and I couldn’t think of a better time to debut this sweet little tulle number. Slipping it on instantly turned me into a giddy happy woman! I laughed, skipped and even twirled a bit. The only downside of this skirt was having to take it off at the end of the day. But the world has yet to see the last of “her”. I look forward to pairing this baby with unexpected pieces in unsuspecting places.
One of my New Year Resolutions is to step outside of the box with this here blog. I want to explore different parts of the city besides what’s in my neighborhood. I look forward to showing you all many parts of my beloved city and perhaps the country.
Happy New Year!!!
PEPLUM AS A VEST

Peplum Top: Forever 21 Similar, Flannel Shirt: H&M Similar, Jeans: J. crew, Shoes: Sole Society, Handbag: 3.1 Phillip Lim Large, Necklace: T & J designs, Lipstick: YSL Violet Incognito, Ring: T & J designs, Nails: China Glaze Ruby Pumps
As much as I love it on others, I’m someone who’s never felt comfortable in the layered sweater look. I find them unflattering on my frame as they make me look boxy. However, I feel very comfortable and even a bit sassy with this peplum top over a jewel toned flannel. I’m excited that I found a way to wear this vegan leather piece I purchased in the summer through these cold months.
Hope you all had magical holidays!

Whoop Whoop!!! Ok, I just had to get that out. Final exams are finally over and I got the chance to enjoy my Saturday. No studying, no assignments no deadlines. Just me, this warm red dress and some good ol’ fashioned shopping. With today’s clear agenda I finally allowed myself to dive into the Christmas spirit! It’s the first one hubby and I will celebrate as a married couple and I’m really anxious to deck our halls.
I had a relaxing morning and braved the brisk cold (even removing my jacket) to have some shots snapped. Then I switched into some cute flat boots before heading out to shop for presents, ornaments and gift wrap.
Any other late starters out there?
VINTAGE FLARE
If you saw my Instagram posts over the weekend, you know that I spent the early part of Saturday helping a good friend and owner of Naomi Rose at F.I.G. (Fashion Industry Gallery) finale.
During a brief moment in between assisting fabulously clad customers, I spotted a woman wearing the coolest jeans. They were fitted at the top and flared out perfectly towards the bottom. Instead of being of a dark shade or having random faded patches, they were a lighter vintage color. Turns out this stylish Rachel Zoe-esque woman was Jenn Burt, the owner of GypsterVeil. I’m so excited about this cool online boutique that carries designers like, Whitney Eve, House of Harlow and Show Me Your Mumu. I quickly nabbed a pair of those jeans in my size and a sequin flowy blazer that made me feel oh so cool! I’m proudly sporting the new denim on today’s post and can’t wait to style my blinged out jacket very soon!
