Fuchsia

As far as brights go, fuchsia would have to be considered my most versatile. After purchasing this linen jacket from the Zara sale, I have wanted to wear it every day. And as you can see from Instagram, I have done almost that! It compliments primary colors, moody darks, and soft pastels. Although I have to credit my Nars Schiap lipstick with broadening the influence of the color "fuchsia" in my daily life. 

Have any lipsticks helped your color combining skills?

No Need for Shoulder Pads

I'm a sucker for blazers (obviously), so finding a unique, vintage one is my ultimate score. I just  ensure that I remove the shoulder pads as I don't need any help in the big shoulders category.

Recreate my look:

Vintage blazer (similar), Kohl's silk top (similar), XXI lace skirt (similar), similar belt, Stella & Dot necklace, Nine West sandals (similar)

What I'm Lovin'

:: A textured gold cuff on tanned skin ::

:: Short overalls & tying a jacket around your waist ::

:: The hands free and oh so versatile belt purse ::

:: Cuffing your pants with ankle straps ::

:: Adding edge to a fancy ensemble with an ear cuff ::

:: A loose crop top and full skirt ::

:: An update to the french - the half moon manicure ::

Lately

Here I go again, declaring another "monthly feature," but this one is here to stay! Wanna know how I know? Because I buy something - whether that be a scarf with a gift card or a too expensive yet so flattering swimsuit (because I forgot mine when I went to Tampa) - every month. Therefore, there will always be some item (ahem, items), that I've bought lately that make me neglect my budget and buy more hangers.
