Fashion Friday: Casual Chic w/ ModCloth
Happy Friday! Today’s ensemble is the result of a prompting by Ije over at Klassy Kinks. This week, she participated in ModCloth‘s Uniquely You Challenge where she was asked to style a specific piece from their collection using up to seven items also sold by ModCloth. Ije suggested we take the dress and style it to our liking. Of course, I had to take her up on that but I’d style this Bea & Dot Palette on Parade Dress using pieces from some of my other favorite retailers. Hey, I’M not doing the challenge LOL! Not yet anyways… Bea Dot shirt dress / H M denim jacket / Combat boots / Forever 21 tote bag / ALDO gold ring / Infinity scarf / Cutout Craze Geo Earrings This shirt dress is too adorable. I love the retro shape and you can go either way with it style-wise. I decided to go casual by first adding a…

Fashion Friday: How to Style a Black Skirt
The black skirt. A staple in the closets of many for their versatility and functionality. To continue this love affair I have with H&M’s Spring offerings, I’m giving you two ways to style my absolute favorite item of my top ten– the Crinkled Skirt– using a host of items from the line. On the left, we have a very work appropriate getup complete with a smart drape-front chiffon blouse, faux snakeskin ankle-strap pumps and a large purse fit for all your personal and work essentials. Add a cute statement ring and drop earrings for some flair. To our right, the chill outfit. Head to date night or some fun with the girls in this funky ensemble. Denim shirts always make me happy. 🙂 Slap a stretchy tank underneath, roll up those sleeves and you’re good to go. An interesting statement necklace, a simple cognac-colored handbag and platform booties bring it all together.…

Fashion Friday: Wedding Style – Velvet Blazer + Balloon Skirt
Soooo… remember how I bought that dress for my cousin’s wedding last month and how it was a fail? Well, I found something else just in time! Here’s what I ended up with. Ya liiiike? 😉 With limited time AND funds, my sister and I made a thrift shop run to find ‘fits for this wedding. I decided to finally hit up a spot in Brooklyn that style & natural hair vlogger Keisha G. aka Ahsiek1118 raves about. With many of her thrifted finds going for under $10 per item, I was confident I’d find something nice for dirt cheap. I’ll do a separate post on all of the ridiculous deals I found but for now, let’s concentrate on this skirt. I got this beautiful bubble skirt for the low, low price of $4!! That’s no typo, you read right… F-O-U-R DOLLARS! It was slightly roomy in the waist so ma dukes…

Choosing the Right Dress for My Shape
Happy Friday y’all. *le sigh* The dress that I ordered for my cousin’s wedding arrived on Tuesday. Welp, I tried it on… I was hopeful but as I kinda expected, it just didn’t work. My body is… special. While I have a very small top area, the bottom half is a completely different story. That being the case, I need to buy a size big enough to compensate for the thighs and “junk in the trunk”. (LOL!) Well, you may not be able to tell much from my pic (it was the best I could do at the time) but it was too tight, a lot shorter than I expected and honestly, the overall cut of the dress was just all wrong for me! Even if I exchanged it for a size up, I’d have a large chunk to take in at the top (nothing my mom couldn’t handle) and…
