Daffodil Beyonce Inspired

Finishing up the summer season I had to pull out my matching short suit I was super excited to but never wore. After becoming inspired by  Instyle Magazine Daffodil selection I was confident in busting out the mustard/ daffodil yellow.



Not knowing if I wanted to keep it simple and throw on a cream or black top with it, I decided to go full 100% same color. My decision was instantly confirmed when I saw a pic on Instagram with Beyonce spotted out looking flawless.








What do you think of this look? Fab or Fail? Did I pull of the Daffodilyonce? LOL yes I just made up my own word.

CAUTION: Railroad Crossing
















Matching outfits and gladiator shoes have been one of this season's trending items and I finally understand why. Not only is the matching combo chic, it is something so fun to grab and dress up or down. 

I decided to wear my favorite lace up gladiator sandals to give this wild print a little more edge. The hat was an accessory I decided to throw in there simply because I just bought it and couldn't wait to wear it. ( I know I seem a little antsy or pressed lol.) With the particular location of this shoot I really am glad that I decided to stick the hat in there. 

Originally skeptical about buying these over priced gladiator sandals from Zara I am so happy with my choice. The matching print crop outfit was also a little out of my comfort zone but I immediately warmed up to the idea once I started accessorizing it. I decided to dress this down this time around but in the future I may throw on some really cute wedges, lose the hat, change the lip, and dress it up a little. 

What is your outtake on matching outfits for this summer? How have you styled the Zara Leather Roman Sandals?

Matching Blues From Head to Toe

I have been dying for a really cute printed matching pant suit and immediately feel in love when I found this beauty. I love it because it is office appropriate (or at least for my job), but I can also throw on a crop top and head out with it.

Ironically enough I dyed my hair blue so I was literally matching from head to toe. The blue hair is way out of my comfort zone but I really love it:



How do you feel about matching printed suits? Do you think this is something you are planning to add to your wardrobe?

Camo & Heels












I always was inspired to do an outfit with camo shorts and heels. It wasn't until today when the weather decided to be 72 degrees that I realized this was the perfect time. 

I paired my new favorite bright yellow sweater, camo shorts from the boys department, and this puffer vest together to create a simple relaxed but season-mixing outfit. The layering and choices I decided to go with were perfect because I wasn't to cold or hot today. I threw in my favorite heel booties and some lipstick to make this outfit a little more feminine. 

I must admit this is one of the most effortless outfits I have thought of and very casual. Do you like wearing baggy boy shorts? If so, how do you style them?

Oversized Pastel Coat

Growing up I had a wool oversized pink coat and now I really wish I still had it. I think its at my dads house, but with my schedule I don’t have time to get it. With all that being said I was extremely happy to see that this Fall & Winter pastel coats were trending.

Lately I have been a Forever21 junkie more than usual and thats when I first took notice of the oversized wool coats and even the various pastel ones they have to offer, $60 for a "just because I think its hot" coat was definitely not apart of my budget, especially with the big move I am about to make into my own place. But just because I couldn’t get the one Forever21 had to offer didn’t mean I couldn’t be apart of the trending factor. 

I gladly went to the Georgia Ave Thrift and immediately fell in love. I found this featured baby blue pastel coat. At first it seemed to oversized but after trying it on about 4 times I realized it was exactly what I was looking for. The best part about this Thrifty find was that it was only $10 and 100% wool. After leaving this thrifting adventure I came out with this amazing coat, fringe boots, a corduroy blazer and a wool skirt. 

Lately I have been wanting to wear this coat with everything. I like the fact that it looks great with a dress and even better with some jeans and flats or jeans and heels. Although I have 2 other coats of interest I feel that this will be my go to coat. What is your outtake on pastel coats? Would you agree wool oversized coats are a must have for this season?
