My Finance Feature on Accidental Chic

accidentalchic



I was asked by Tiffani of Accidental Chic (who I felt instantly became my best friend, after stating that she is also a lover of Fashion and Finance too). We met at the Independent Fashion Bloggers Conference this past February.
Since then we have communicated and she asked me to be featured on Accidental Chic for Financial Chic Fridays.

Please check out the feature on ACCIDENTAL CHIC. I hope you enjoy!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH TIFFANI, hope to see you again in SEPTEMBER for Fashion Week.

Beauty Tip-Nail Trends Colors for Summer


This post is my lovely sisters Blaine and Zoie. And I can't forget my cousin Elle. They are avid nail painters. They change colors on their nails at least once a week or more. So in honor of their POLISH CHANGE O.C.D, I bring to you a video clip from BellaSuga TV highlighting this season's color trends for every ladies manicure.




Below I have found some great affordable nail color recommendations to be right on trend for the Summer Season.

Oufit Inspiration-Delmy From Fashion Bananas


Delmy from Fashion Bananas is one of my favorite daily style reads. Her style is very modern, chic, and subtly sexy. This outfit in particular is screaming "I am SEXY and Innocent" all in the same breath.

I asked her today on Twitter "What is the brand of the cropped white top, that you are wearing in the post?" She replied "A Lux tee from Urban Outfitters that she DIY'ed herself. She created a crop top by cropping it herself." And I said "Please forgive me now because I am going to have to Jack this look for myself tonight." She told me "Get It Girl, Have Fun Tonight." I guess that was all the validation I needed to start my quest to recreate this look.

Amazingly I went to AMERICAN APPAREL FLEA MARKET SALE this past weekend and purchased those same pants in a mint/seafoam green color. How Ironic!!! After work I am going to Forever 21 to buy a white shirt to complete the look.

Tonight I am going to see one of friend's perform LIVE for the first time and I think I am going to Swagger Jack this whole look. I hope it turn out the way I envision it. So wish me luck and I will post pictures tomorrow, if the look is a thumbs up.

Pictures from my Trip to NYC


I am sorry I have been somewhat M.I.A lately. At my place of employment they have put restrictions on websites that we are allowed to view and of course BLOGGER was one of the chosen few.

So when I would usually have time to write post at lunch and throughout the day, that now is not possible. So I have to wait till after work to write post, and as of late I have no time post I have been SO BUSY. But THANK YOU to ALL THAT READ FASHION WITHOUT GUILT, I am forever grateful.

Here are some more pictures from my trip to NYC. The photos are ranging from random sighting seeing to just some places that I visited while in the BIG APPLE. So I hope that you enjoy and there are still more to come. I took some many pictures it's ridiculous.


Still to come Independent Fashion Blogger's Social Influence Conference and I meet some of the biggest bloggers out there. STAY TUNED.

Just so happen when I went to visit NEW YORK it was Chinese New Year, so that is where the dragons and the confetti came from. I had a blast that day exploring NYC all by myself. There are so many people here and there it makes you feel alive. I heard Jay-Z and Alicia Keys in my mind. "Concrete jungle, where dreams are made of, there is nothing you can do, Now your in NY, NY, NY. Aww LOVE THIS PLACE!!! LOL.

My Favorite Heels-Mossimo® Virginia Nude Pumps for $30


Target Missimo Virginia $29.99

Where do I begin? Maybe a couple of months ago, as I was browsing through the shoe section in Target and I came across these "GEMS". As we all know that nude is a very huge trend this summer, having a great pair of "go-to" nudies are the only way to go.

I try to wear them every chance I get. Trying to find the right nude shade and tone can be difficult sometimes. But the Virginia heel from Target is definetly a woman's staple wardrobe item.

If you plan on doing some shoe shopping anytime soon I HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting a pair of these Bad Boys. ASAP.

P.S. I think I am going to buy another pair just so that I can have them for the fall because I am going to get my money's worth this summer.
