Just Fabulous!

As I've mentioned before I am in love with the website JustFab.com



These are some of my favorite finds and have been added to my "Oh so long" wishlist :)
Each of their lovely shoes is a female name which I think is so fun. Starting from the top, Daphene, is a darling shoe. It is versatile, you can dress is up to go to work with a blazer, fitted skirt or dress paints, but it can also be dolled up with a sundress or a flowy skirt. Phaedra, is an adorable strappy shoe great for sundresses or like the picture above with shorts and a cute top. Now Aurora on the other hand is a sexy shoe in my opinion for a night out. I could definitely wear them shopping too with the right outfit. I have seen other fashion bloggers put them with work outfits and they look just fabulous, I just couldn't see myself doing it because I wouldn't be comfortable. I am in love with Ingra because of it's sweet little bow and beautiful, shiny color. I see sweet and sassy in this shoe! And last, but definitely not least, Raquel, my favorite coral color. I want this shoe to make a coral & mint ensemble which I am desperately trying to create. As I stated here it is my favorite Spring color combo this year!

Which of these shoes do you like best? What is your favorite color combo this season?

XOXO,

My 2012 Spring Favorites











Spring is my favorite season among them all. This year I have found a love for a few special trends. Bangles area a great way to spruce up an outfit and add flare. I love these gold bangles by Roberto Coin. Nude pumps are a staple to have in your closet for the Spring. They bring femininity to any pastel or floral outfit. Mint and Coral are two of my favorite colors this spring. I am seeing them everywhere and it's such a refreshing combo! I'm still looking for my perfect mint/coral outfit this season. Maxi dresses are perfect for a day of shopping, errands, and fun. It's not often you find comfort in fashion and this, my friends, is the epitome of comfort. Nude bags are great to set off an outfit full of color whether it be brights, pastels, or prints. Pastel Skinnys are one of my favorites because you can dress them up or down. For a casual day choose flats, a breezy tee, and a big tote. For a night out add a printed shirt, sassy accessories, a great clutch, and some pumps and you are ready to go. Scarfs are a huge accessory this season. You can add them loosely to any outfit and it will give it an extra spark. Pastel Pumps are great to keep the femininity rolling with a cute ensemble. I bought these from JustFab.com and I'm in love! And last, but not least, Blazers are a staple in my closet. Whether it's a bold color or a nude they set off an outfit and also create a great shape to your body. So with all that said these are just a few of my 2012 Spring favorites!

Do you have any favorite trends this Spring?

XOXO,

Skinny & Slim

Okay I am getting back on track! Back from a long, much needed vacation, and ready to get back to a schedule!


Today I thought I'd share a photo that Jon seems to just love. I received a late Christmas present from my dad which happened to be a Taurus Slim 9mm. I have been wanting a small handgun to carry concealed since I graduated the police academy and now I have the perfect gun. It's so slim it fits in my skinny jeans :) Jon got me a magazine extender so that my pinkie fits and the holster so I am all set. You can still be fashionable and carry concealed for all you ladies who like to look perty, but still pack heat. 

Shirt: Forever 21
Skinny Jeans: Ross
Earrings: Forever 21
Sandals: Old Navy

Taurus/Gun: Gift

Beach Fever

I'm way behind on posting! I've been enjoying the beach too much :)

Between tanning, running on the beach, Broadway on the beach, aMMMMazing meals full of seafood, and so much more I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

  Today Jon and I are meeting my brother, who just recently moved here, for lunch and then enjoying our last day at the beach before we pack up and head to the Carolina Cup horse race tomorrow! Ahhh such a great vacation!

Maxi Heaven





This vacation is an absolute blast! We have spent two wonderful days with our private pool and the beach right outside our front door. What could be better than soaking up the sun in your front yard? After a long, relaxing day of doing nothing but sleep and play outside the fiancee and I decided to have a night out at a great restaurant called Flying Fish and then a little shopping at the Tanger Outlets :) What I wore... (which by the way was the perfect/comfortable outfit with a tiny sunburn on my back).

Where: Night out, dinner & shopping with my fiancee
Maxi Dress: Forever 21
Necklace: Old
Earrings: Gift

Isn't the ocean just to die for?

Two Birds - One Stone






We arrived at the beach about 4pm Saturday evening and got ourselves settled in then decided it was time to go out for our first of many seafood meals! So we got cleaned up and this is what I wore. (I traveled down with little care for fashion and more care for comfort. I wore a graphic tee and a gaucho skirt from Old Navy). So it was nice to clean up once we were out of the car. And the funny thing is I never used to wear stripes or red, because I didn't like either. Now I killed two birds with one stone and I liked it!

Where: Dinner with the family at the beach :)
Shirt: Forever 21
Skinny Jeans: Ross
Sandals: Old Navy
Camel Belt: Old
Necklace: Banana Republic
Ring: My grandmothers

Is there something you were once totally opposed to wearing and now you love it?
 
XOXO,
