Black n' White n' Stripes All Over...

Alright fine, I have a lot more stripes in my closet than I thought. (hehe) Well, it's Thursday, which means it's ALMOST Friday, which means it's ALMOST the weekend. YAY! 

SO real reason for this post... my ACCESSORIES! I'm obsessed with Project Runway, I've been watching it since season one! This season, (season 13) Aldo has "THE WALL"! For those of you who don't watch Project Runway, it's a show with really creative designers who compete for a chance to have their own clothing line. ... Any-who, "THE WALL" is, well, a wall, but that's where the designers go to, to chose what shoes and accessories their models will be wearing down the runway.  In the past, Lord n' Taylor, Macys, and even Bluefly.com have been featured on "THE WALL".   This season showcases a lot of the amazing accessories Aldo carries, including my bracelet and necklace! 

Tales of a Tuesday

I try to stay away from stripes, vertical stripes to be exact,  because sometimes, they may make you look larger than you appear.  I have a larger chest so I've also been trying to stay away from A-line dresses... 
oh the dilemmas of a curvaceous woman (lol).   It's always important to know what fits your body, and what parts you like to accentuate. Although this dress is somewhat considered to be an A-line dress,  because it has a belt around it, it "gives me shape"

The yellow brim at the bottom of the dress is actually the fabric they used to line the skirt.  I just flipped it over and sewed it so it could stay in one place so the that the yellow would pop out more. It never hurts to be little creative sometimes!

Liebster Award!

I think it's so super cool that Cara Hape has nominated my blog for the Liebster Award!!  Although I'm still pretty new to the blog world, this is such a great opportunity to get to know other bloggers better! 

Muggy Mondays...

I know, it's a really crappy elevator shot... and I probably could've edited it some, but I love this picture. It's kinda like my candid.  It's one of those outfits I didn't take too many pictures of while I was on vacation... this picture is pretty much the only one I have. 

I have on floral shorts... but after 5 days of eating A LOT (emphasis on the word A LOT) I wanted a more loose fitting shirt. Of course, I paired my paper hat and some sandals. 

Casual Sunday...

It's been a tiny bit chilly in NY... and it's still summer... we are headed to a bbq so I decided to wear striped pants with a pastel color and my Louboutin's. I kept it very simple.
