I love to mix high & low priced items. I like to shop around and stumble on a piece that will make someone say "I love that, where did you get it?" and then just SHOCK them LOL! Just recently I went to Kmart to pick up some house stuff and walked through the clothing section. To my surprise I found this beautiful black and white blazer. The material is one of my fav knit ponte and it fit me perfectly! Not a heavy material at all which is a bonus for transitioning through all seasons.

Mac Heroine release date April 4th
I'm on my grind searching for that perfect lipstick......Well I think I should say lipsticks (PLURAL)! I'm a lipgloss lover, so the transition for me is a little hard. I'm use to a more sheer base with a tint of color. Having the full color on my lip makes me look a different to myself; Different is good right?

I've found two colors that I like and feel comfortable in. One of my good friends also suggested that I try the new Mac color Heroine scheduled for release April 4th. I've already planned a trip to MAC on my lunch break that day!

What do you think of the two I chose? What are your fav lipstick colors and brands?

It's that time! Spring is here and kids are getting ready for the Easter fashion shows. My God Mom's Eastern Star group held a Easter fashion show fundraiser. When she asked did I know a little kid to sign up, the first person to come to mind was my lil "friend" Princess Aarlynn. My sis in law let me style and train Aarlynn for the show and we were in it to win it! The experience was so much fun and all the little kids were cute. Aarlynn pulled through and won the crown....YAY!!!!!

Being crowned the WINNER!

I loved styling her! Shopping at JCP for little girls clothing makes it easy. They're always on trend and the prices are RIGHT!

Clothing and Shoes: JCP
Accessories: Burlington Coat Factory, beauty supply store, and Claire's 

Of course she's a naturalista as well, so hair was styled as:
Casual outfit: Curly ponytail on top of her head with a beautiful large flower headband.
Dress outfit: Hair sprayed with water and oil mixture to bring out her natural curls. Pinned on one side with a flower with curls hanging to the side.

Today I took a look at one of my fav websites, ASOS.com and of course they had something I wanted to buy. This global online fashion retailer makes the best plus size (Curve) clothing. Always on trend and the prices are right!

When I saw this dress I just had to have it! On my exercise journey my waist has went down SEVEN inches since December so this dress will fit just right :)

Monica Open Toe Heel
This Spring and Summer I'm determined to step out of my box a little bit more. My goal is to always add a pop of color to my outfit and not be so matchy-matchy.

I received a email from Sole Society today featuring their end of season 33% off sale. I fell in love with these shoes: Monica Open Toe Heel - Strappy sandal with stacked leather heel and back zip closure. 3 1/2 inch heel high and 3/4 platform - Pure comfort! I can see them with a white summer dress or a white tank with some seersucker shorts too! These definitely will add that pop of color I'm looking for. Regular price $49.95, I scored these beauties for $33.47 plus free shipping!

Last weekend I decided to go to the mall. I was only going to exchange a shirt I purchased from Forever 21 a week earlier, but left the mall with so much more! The skirt I was exchanged at Forever 21 was $15.80, I ended up leaving the store with 3 items compared to 1 for ONLY $3 more! Can you say WINNING!!! Then I headed to JCP and found a cute fitting royal blue blazer with cuffed sleeves with white satin and black pinstripes for only $20. I can't wait to wear the blazer with a plain white tee and jeans and statement heels or wedges.

I'm really trying to take the plunge into wearing lipstick. I found a great article on Styleunited.com "The 10 Commandments of Lipstick" and I had to share. Check it out HERE

 
I've been telling a friend for the past month or so that I want to try lipstick. I'm a lipgloss girl from the heart......My lipgloss is always poppin, BUT it's time to change things up. Step out of the box!

Low and behold I hit up Facebook and a fellow blogger: Lifestyles of the Thrifty and Shameless posted this awesome list of 12 Mac Lipstick Dupes. I had to share with you all :) I think I'm going to look for the dupe to Mac Russian Red and Mac Bubbles first!
