Bold Maxi

I am a sucker for a bold print dress!  When I saw this dress on Pinterest I fell in love.

The mix of color in this dress is stunning!  I love the breeze of the fabric and the way the stripes angle down and not around!  Very pretty dress.

Red White and Blue

I have been hunting for the perfect (to me) silky sleeveless top.  I guess I am too picky or the ones I have found are more expensive than I plan to spend. Call me strange but I have a hard time spending more than $20 on a shirt without sleeves.  Anyhow last night I found this top at NY&Co on sale for $20.  The look and feel of it is perfect for spring and summer!  With no collar it will work with shorts for a more casual look and is elegant enough to go with any skirt for work!  Loving!  I found mine in the store.  


Skirt is Tommy Hilfiger found at Good Will a few years ago.  It is a fun bold print!
Simple dark brown cardigan from Target.  
My new sandals - see May Budget!

Similar skirts I love                                      Macy's and Ann Taylor


So my BF text me a picture of her hair one day and said she found a blog that gives great hair tips and shows you how to recreate on your own.  I checked it out and I have to say that I haven't found a how to that is so informative!!!  So I decided to try for myself.  Here is the blog.  With my hair so much longer it turned out nice but a little different!

 Happy Shopping!

Lip Trick

So I went to ULTA yesterday to stock up on some things and asked about a white pencil to line my lips.  I have been reading about how it makes your lips fuller.  The lady said what I needed was the Wonder Pencil that is a concealer, it will define the line of my lip and make them look fuller.  So in an effort to believe she knew what she was referring to I purchased it.  I am happy but not completely sold.  Maybe when my nose heals from my recent sickness and the skin is soft and tight again I will see the results I want.  But for now here are my before and after pictures.  I used L'Oreal Wet Shine Stain in "Rose On and On", it's my go to spring color.


Not sure if you can see the difference.  My lips are more defined.  Which I guess you could get with a lip liner, only difference is when the lip stain wears off I don't have a strange outline on my lips because it is a concealer.

Coral Skirt


TJ Maxx find!!!  I am loving this bright skirt.  The length is perfect and the color is so spring!  Only $16.99!! It is lace like, with cut out circles all around.  Sorry the pictures aren't very clear.  Curse of a phone pic.

Shift Dress

I love a good shift dress with Panel's.  It is simple, elegant, easy to accessorize, and well perfect for the office in general!
For some reason the coloring in the photo just sucks - my appologies!  I think I need a new camera!  Or someone to take my pictures!  This is when I wish I had my BF closer than PA!

Anyhow, this dress has panels which make me look slimmer (solid black down the sides).  I purchased it last year at NY&Co.  I pair it with a cropped cardi, like this lime green from GAP and simple pumps.  Easy to wear, comfortable and chic!
