Red Lips

Its days like these, the warm days that keep us going during the winter. Really they keep us sane.  All this talk of the blizzard is already starting to give me cabin fever.  Red lipstick is if not my favorite accessory, definitely one of the many. It literally can take any ordinary outfit and make it spectacular. My bargain piece in this outfit are definitely these ripped jeans, a $3.99 savers find! Black ripped jeans are on the rise and they make your outfit killer. I personally never grew out of having ripped jeans. There is nothing more edgy. Since getting a second job my blogging has been put on the back burner and I apologize for that. I hope to post more than once this week. Hope everyone is fantastic.
Cheerio!

Something Borrowed

The cheapest and most effective way to keep your clothes shopping at a minimum  is to have a best friend. This beautiful Brandy Melville skirt is straight out of her (being Mikaela) closet. At the end of the day if an article of my clothing is missing I know its somewhere in her closet. We share a wardrobe. This fall has been on the warmer side, it's hard to believe its November. With the work schedule like mine, I've been planning my outfits at night while I can't sleep. Its almost uncanny how much a bad outfit can throw your day off. These boots were a killer deal I found. DSW is a great place to find shoes that usually you can't find anywhere else. These were the last pair and they were a whopping $40.00! Who can beat that? Well Happy Wednesday everyone, the weekend fast approaches!
Cheerio!

Well what can I say about these outfits, I have a very large wardrobe but really I only wear about twenty percent of it. The thing about me is, I usually look for the best bargain possible. I get an item or piece of clothing that I want stuck in my head and then look everywhere for it, till I can find a reasonable price.  My army pants were a T.J. Maxx find, only ten dollars!  The sweater in that outfit only $25.00.  My Sweater in the top outfit, only $25.00 and the Red Hot Chili Pepper tank, was mens from Target that I cut up and made my own.  In the middle outfit, I bought the polka dot shirt for $7.00.  What Im trying to say here is just because looking around for a bargain takes time, its completely worth it. Usually I scope out a store's website before I actually walk in to see if they have exactly what I'm looking for and if its on sale. You don't have to break the bank to have a great wardrobe. Hopefully some photography posts to come this week!

Cheerio for now!

Finally Autumns in the Air

                         

Happy Autumn Everyone, what would we do without this beautiful month of October. Well what can I say about this little number. I'm myself. I feel free. I also am not very poetic right now. Autumn makes me feel free. Its like the change in seasons gives me a new boost. I have a hard time putting the shorts away so tights work perfectly. I'll let you into a secret, these combat boots are one of the best purchases I've ever made. Now here's the secret...Target. I buy lots of basics, odds and ends, and quirky things there.  My work schedule has me going crazy, todays my first day off. I hope everyones having a wonderful day, I will be back this week!
Cheerio!

Hello there Autumn

                     
 

There was a poem I had to learn in middle school called "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost. It was a poem about taking the path that seems distant, that not many would choose but yet it lead to the most amazing out come. On adventures with my best friend, are new thing is trying to take the "road not taken". Which lead us to stumble on such an amazing building as this in the middle of the woods. This outfit is pretty casual but it was good for the walk. Its the times when your far away from the world and all you can feel is the cool air and the smell of trees, that you feel Autumn from the inside. My leggings are lululemon. I live out of leggings in the winter and they were  a perfect investment. I hate when leggings are transparent, nobody wants to see that! I also live out of my vans, because well I am a sneaker kind of girl. I'm too excited about the weather change and it shows! Well happy autumn everyone!
Cheerio!

The Little Things

Well here is my outfit of the day today. I finally am catching a breath from the crazy thing I call life. I shot my first wedding on Saturday and I'm blessed beyond all odds with the way the photos came out (I can't wait to post them). I also work two jobs, as well as my photography on the side. My life is insane but that why I made this blog, as a small outlook on the madness. This outfit is so simple yet incredible classy. The thing about my wardrobe is I find everything at awesome prices, people know me as the biggest bargain shopper. I probably paid around forty dollars for this outfit. This dress from H&M was a steal, for only ten dollars. You can always find great basic pieces there that fit with closely anything else in your wardrobe. I love this floppy hat because it lets me feel like I'm in a different generation or time where big floppy hats were worn at horse races and fancy events. Its always the little things to me that make me so happy! I'll be back with wedding photos!

Cheerio
