Love YOself

Love YOself

You either learn to love your (once athletic now slightly mushy) thighs or you let them kill you. I decided to do a few squats/exercises in the morning and to learn to love them. Ladies, you always have to work with what you got! So in the theme of embracing yourself, I give you this romper.. Romper: Olivaceous | Bag: Ferragamo | Shoes: Valentino | Bracelets: Hermes & David Yurman In the spirit of loving myself (ie. “yo-self” as in today’s title), here’s another fun fact: I grew up LOVING rap music (yes in my suburban, middle-class homeland, we LOVED Biggie, Juelz,…

Your girlfriend/bestie invites you over for dinner, out for drinks, shopping, or your man (love interest, hubby, boo, whatever you call your significant other) invites you to a movie or over his friends house and…..

Vibrant Vibes

Vibrant Vibes

Sometimes, not often, but sometimes I wear vibrant colors. Well, really I should say a vibrant color to make that grammatically correct, because I don’t think I’ve ever worn two bright colors together. Actually maybe in my blonde/over tanned days I may have. I digress. Presently, I still own a few super pigmented over-the-top items that I love (you may not see them often but I can still love them, right?). This week I’m showcasing one of these items, lets take a look..  Skirt: H&M, similar | Top: Express | Shoes: Vince Camuto | Bag: Chanel | Hamsa Necklace: Alef Bet For whatever…

When it Works, it Works

When it Works, it Works

There are some days where anything thing I pull out of my closet just works. I wish I could tell you why these glorious moment happen, but they just do. Unfortunately, there are other days where I can have total styling-block. Those are the days where you need your arsenal of go-tos ready. Fortunately for you guys this week I have a look that just WORKS, and it’s so good. Let’s take a look… Kimono: Forever 21 | Bodysuit: American Apparel | Coated Denim: Paige | Shoes: Dior | Bag: Chanel Not all kimonos are created equally. And not all are solely meant…

Leopard x Suede

Leopard x Suede

Suede for Spring, my new S phrase (besides Simply by Simone that is haha, kidding! Kinda..) My point, I’m loving suede right now. It adds texture and edge to any common style. Let’s take a look.. Sweater: Express | Pants: H&M | Booties: Schutz | Bag: Marc Jacobs I chose to pair my suede pants with my new leopard booties. Without them, this is just any other average outfit. The print along with the texture really takes this look to the next level for me. Paired with a casual sweater, this style is versatile as ever. You can wear a…

Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday!

We’re all always trying to do more, and be better, make more money, be more social, ect. The list can go on and on. So, today post is about stoping at smelling the roses. It’s great that you want to keep going and bettering yourself, but sometimes we’re so focused on the future that we forget to be thankful for what we have at this very moment. Enjoy the things and people you have in your life at this very moment. The more you appreciate what you already have, the easier it will be to work for more. This Monday…
