Almost over the hump!  Wooohoo!  We had a small snow storm yesterday and were expecting more tonight.  Put a fork in me.... #i'mDONE!

 

Thanks to Mother Nature, I've been living in Cardi's!  It was a little warm {30 degrees was warm} when I took these pics, so I decided to layer it with my faux leather jacket.  Layered or all on its own, a long cardi is warm and stylish!  Just what the weather ordered!

 

Stay warm sweets!

 Happy Friday! 

I wanted to share the outfit I wore to my friends wedding this past weekend.  It was a casual affair with family and friends since this was their second wedding.  Yup, they are part of the two weddings gang!  They were married at the court house but had a beautiful private dinner with family and friends.  Hubby and I did the same thing when we got married.  Courthouse then went with family and friends to the gorgeous island of Dominican Republic. 

 

Congratulations again Jessica & Gunther!

 Laura, Letti, beautiful bride Jessica, Amanda, and of course little old me!  #myfavoritegirls!

 

 

The all black was not planned!  

The back of my dress was super fab!  It's has an open x back but I decided to wear it as a skirt and layer with a blazer.  If you want to see the dress, I linked it on here. 

 

Hope you all have a super fun weekend!

In Black & White

Happy Monday Sweets! 

I was supposed to attend The Reward Style Party at the Empire Hotel last Sunday but I had to cancel.  Since I wasn't able to attend any fashion shows, I figured I would do a blog post inspired by some of the fashions on the cat walk.  Black and white was all over the runway for spring 2014!  My favorite had to be DVF!  Her runway show was simply amazing! 

Black and white will never go out of style!  So classy and you can take it from day to night by just adding the perfect accessories.  Here's my fall interpretation of black and white.

Top necklace: Charming Charlie

Bottom necklace: Ny & Company

Bracelet: Mandee

Top: H&M
Jeans: Mossimo (Target)
Flats & handbag: Mandee
Sunnies: Kohl's

Rock that black and white loves!  Hopefully, I will be blogging more regularly now that fall is here.  My summer wardrobe was pretty chillaxed.  Now that fall is here, it's time to kick it up a notch! 

Thanks for visiting!

Have a fab day!

Ditch your mini! GO MAXI!

Heyyyyyyyy!  What's up my sweets!  I missed you!  Hope your all enjoying your summer! 

Mine has been super chill!  Hubby and I are taking a few days off in August, soooooo looking forward to that!  We are on a tight budget this year so no vaca, but we still need a few days to unwind. 

Who doesn't love a good maxi in the summer!  I have a few and actually they are all kind of dressy.  I'm on the hunt for a casual everyday maxi.  I went to Forever 21 and couldn't find any I liked.  I ordered this via Hautelook and it's so soft, and I love the print!  So go ahead and ditch your mini! 

Channeling my inner goddess.... ;)

Dress: Hautelook

Sandals: Prabal Gurung

FYI - don't let these silly poses fool you!  I hate taking blog pics, and my hubby knows it so he makes me do silly things!  Gotta love him! 

Have a fab day!
