What I am Craving...Forever 21

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.

Seen In Action-Kim Kardashian wearing Forever 21 Beaded Tribal Necklace


Kim Kardashian's stylist Monica Rose has a personal blog displaying clients including Mrs. Kim K.

I love Monica Rose. Her way of bringing sexy/trendy/chic together is always a winner. I AM A HUGE FAN. I would also consider myself similar to her design aesthetic. I love to look like a woman but still make a statement.

Yesterday I can across a outfit styled for Kim and noticed that the necklace looked similar to the Forever 21 Beaded Tribal Necklace for $7.80,and sure enough it is. I love when celebrities mix high end items with the everyday affordable pieces.

And MONICA ROSE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!! LOVE YOUR BLOG!!!

My Ring Obessession and Double Finger Rings Under $15


First let me apologize for the quality of the pictures I took them with my camera on my phone. Now that is out of the way, I just want to talk about my true obessession with RINGS.


I LOVE RINGS, I think they are the best accessory HANDS DOWN!!! And my recent drug of choice is DOUBLE FINGER RINGS. Everytime I see one I have to buy. It actually says my name "Breck if you do not buy me, you can never find me again" and the sad part is that I actually listen. I know I am out of control. Over the past two weeks I have aquired at 8 new double finger rings. And as I have noted going through a FASHION DEPRESSION, I have yet to wear one of them. I know I am truely sad.

But I have selected some great affordable double/connector finger rings that are under $15.

Guest Post-Add Flair to Your Work Outfits


This guest post was contributed by Sara from Star Costumes after reading my article about being in a Fashion Depression and thought that adding a little flair to your office outfits can help break the corporate monotony. THANK YOU SARA.


Dealing with a conservative office environment? It can be tough when you want to spice up your outfits but are constrained by the oh-so-boring black pumps and senator cardigans that everyone else at your workplace is sporting. Never fear, though . . . it is possible to add some flair to your everyday outfits and still keep them work-appropriate.



Some of these items might be a little too flashy for the stiffest offices, but you know your work environment best, so don't be afraid to toe the line and see what you can get away with in the name of fashion!

Accessories are prime pieces of flair because they can add personality to an outfit without completely taking it over. Plus, they're rarely included in a manual's dress code, so you can use that to back yourself up if you happen to get busted.

Try a showpiece ring like this one (Pave Movable Turtle Ring, $24, Urban Outfitters):


Or throw on a fabulous scarf that's rich with color and goes with anything (Smocked Rainbow Scarf, $8.80, Forever 21):








Hair is also a natural place to put some flair. If your office allows hats, try wearing a chic fedora or a 1920s-style headpiece with an elegant flower or a bit of lace. If you don't want something taking up your whole head, try a unique headband (Wide Feather Headband, $5.80, Forever 21






Finally, don't neglect your lower half! If it's chilly at your workplace or you feel uncomfortable showing a lot of leg when you wear a skirt, tone it down while spicing it up with a really interesting pair of tights, like these two from ModCloth (Nocturnal Tights, $31.99, and Rad to the Herringbone Tights, $34.99):













So remember: no matter how conservative your office is, you can strive to stand out at least a little bit. Who knows? You might even get a few compliments and shake things up enough to inspire a mini fashion trend!
