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?

OOTN: Silk Creme and White
Let me start off by saying that I had no idea what to wear for the Rare Bird Fashion Show and was scrambling up until the last minute for something to wear.
I knew it was an evening fashion show where there will be lots of standing, possibly sitting, and moving around. I took a quick look in my closet while I had curlers in my hair and pulled out this silk creme top that I had picked up a few weeks ago and not even thought of wearing. Well once the top was selected I tried on two different skirts, Body con-NO! Too predictable. So I DARED to wear a black pleated skirt which I was set on but the way it fit me I was not convinced. Why was I not convinced with the pleated skirt? Well 1. I am short and my legs can look stumpy 2. I was worried it would add volume to my frame (who wants to look bulkier?).
Once I completed the look I asked my stylist (hunnybun) and he agreed that it looked best with the silk top untucked more relaxed and flattering he said. These pics are not the best but it was crowded and this gives you a glance at what It looked like once it was put together.

OOTD: Silky Top Denim Shorts
Hi there lovelies! This weekend I was going through so many pictures from the early 90's on the internet. I noticed in the early 90's era there was many silky printed tops worn and also rayon shirts with weird designs as well as light denim shorts.
I had this top for a few months from a trip to the thrift store. My sister Kenia thought it was interesting since it had perfume bottles and glasses along with other girly stuff so I took it from her. The shorts have just been acquired. I've been looking everywhere for "MOM" jeans. I finally found these Ralph Lauren mom jeans and cut them to make these cuffed shorts.
I look straight out of a 1993 photo album voila! I loved it was super comfortable and had a blast wearing this. Isn't it crazy how dressing from a different era can give you a different feeling and give you excitement?
