Skirt-all + Chanel

I mean who doesn’t love overalls? ME, yea me. I don’t love overalls, at all. I can’t tell you exactly why, but I think it’s the fact that they’re not definite. They’re masculine, but not very masculine the way an oxford is. They’re casual, but not sweatpants but they remind me of sweatpants. You can dress them up with heels, but you can’t make them very dressed up. You would think being a Libra I would love an article of clothing that falls right in the middle of every style question. Until now, I really couldn’t figure them out. And…

Shadow Me

Shadow Me

A pop of denim can take you a long way. When I’m not sure what I’m doing with my look for the day (let’s be real I’m almost never sure, libra probs), I always look for a pop-piece to style an outfit around. For me this makes it easy when I start with deciding on one piece that in definitely going to wear. So to style a perfect after work/weekend outfit, come shadow me.. Jacket: Guess, similar | Chambray Top: Rails | Denim: Paige | Shoes: Dior | Bag: Chanel Literally a figuratively shadow. I took these shots later in…

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,…

Maxed Out

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….. WHAT DO I WEAR?? The fashionable dilemma we all face. (Hashtag my life.) Next comes my libra problems of making an outfit decision. This week I bring to you a both easy and stylish look. Lets check it out.. Top: Design Lab – Lord & Taylor (in stores now, similar below) | Skirt: H&M (in stores now, similar below), Bag: Ferragamo | Shoes: Pour La Victoire…

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…

Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday!

So if you haven’t guessed or observed, I can be overly dramatic sometimes. Just last week I was ready to have a mental breakdown, while complaining to my mother via text, about working. I have a full time job, a part time job and my blog. And I quote myself “I would rather work six days a week because then I don’t get to remember what it’s like to be happy and enjoy myself.” Now I can say this to myself, shut the F up Simone, YOU’RE NUTS. I’m also laughing as I write this. Sometimes I just can’t even…
