VLOG: August 2012 Favorites and quick OOTD

I know this is super late but I still wanted to share with you the products I loved and tried in August. I didnt have many this month as I did not change the products too much but discovered a few good ones.

Enjoy xoxo

Fall Color Trend: Emerald

Hello lovelies I have been overwhelmed with projects around the house that have actually gotten bigger than anticipated.

I have been catching up on my fashion magazines in between moments and have noticed the color emerald being very prominent on many fashion runways as well as shades of makeup and other cosmetics. Although I love color in general I've never really owned many emerald pieces. I decided to take this silky emerald hi low dress that has never been worn since January. Yes that's right I have things in my closet I just forget about.

Although I am not too experienced at wearing emerald I loved the color and want to try more pieces. Have you tried this color trend?

OOTD: Black Leather Chic

Hola chicas I wanted to show you this ultra chic outfit that can be casual or dressy and ready for happy hour or meeting up with friends.

Kenia paired a few layers of different elements like sheer chiffon witha cotton ribbed tank and a very unique lether skort (skirt/short). To add the extra oomph to this look the pointy neon pumps were like the icing to the cake in this look. Emjoy my beauties.

Sunglasses: Chanel

Shoes: Shiek

Tank: GAP

OOTN: Printed blazer

Here is a more in depth look at my outfit of the night for FNO. The theme of the night was Little Blaxk Dress and wanted to add something to the LBD so I reached for this gray prinmted blazer that I have only worn one other time. I just love when I find new old treasures in my closet it gives me a novelty and saves me money.

Fashion Night Out 2012 Scottsdale

Last week I was so excited to see my Instagram feed with the #FNO hashtag all accross the nation. I joined the rest of the fashion population and attended our local Fashion Night Out at Neiman Marcus. As I arrived a bit late the fashion show was already in mid session and was greeted by a booth from The W Hotel offering tasty drinks. Once in the crowd we headed into Neiman Marcus where they had a photo booth and would give your pictures to keep. I really enjoyed that. One of the floors had a live band with many fashion books and couture displays. We spotted the Phoenix Fashion Week crew and had to stop by hang out in their area. Phoenix Fashion Week had models, designers, and a Little Black Dress Challenge in which we voted between three local designers in a competition for the titel of Little Black Dress.

We voted for our favorite and received a Little Black Dress shirt as a swag gift.

OOTD: Neutral Polka Dots

I have always loved polka dolts in different sizes, patterns, and colors. When I saw this lightweight top I had to have it. I paired it with the white pants since I believe the color temperature stays cool and neutral. As you can see I  DO NOT follow the old rule of NOT wearing white after Labor Day. I love white and especially in jean form.

I was originally going to pair this top and jeans with a beige pump but thought why not push the envelope and wear my floral pumps? They have been in my closet for close to  a month and a little pattern mixing couldn't hurt.

Top: Marshall's Jeans: TJ Maxx

Floral Pumps: Bamboo

OOTD: Labor Day Lazy shorts

Hola chicas I have been meaning to post some pictures from the long weekend we just had but noticed they were all super casual. I have no reason for it  I think I was just feeling chill and wanted to go with the flow no fussy outfit.

These printed shorts are so comfortable they are super thin and cool fabric. I added pink with the shoes just to put a twist on it. Hope you enjoy my lazy shorts post.

Necklace: Charlotte Russe
