Off the Shoulder Day to Night!
Today I am showing how to style this champagne colored off the shoulder satin top that seems like a nighttime only top in both the daytime and nighttime! I scored this top for only $3 on the clearance rack at Rue 21! I could not find deals like this online, but I have linked several similar options all under $15 below! Day: Here I am pairing the top casually with distressed high waisted jeans and Jack Rogers sandals! The satin material paired with the tears in the jeans is the perfect balance of casual and dressy! Wearing sandals with this look is the easiest way to dress it down for…

My Basic Fashion Rules
First off, I don’t have many rules because I believe anyone is allowed to dress any way they desire because it is a form of self expression and I am very open about many different styles, so these are just recommendations! And, these rules are more important when it comes to a professional setting! 1. Short Skirt=Short Heels, Long Skirt=Tall Heels: It’s just class. The more leg you show, the less heel you wear and the less leg, the more heel. It is an important key to showing that you are a classy, professional woman. 2. Black and Navy should NEVER mix They clash. 3. The “No White Pants After…

How to Stay on Track when Shopping
Hey y’all! Today I am going to give my tips on how to stay on track when out shopping! Now I mean day trips to the mall or outlets, not going to Walmart for shampoo. Since I am a pro shopper, I know exactly how to stay on track! Think of what you want before going: I don’t mean pick out everything you want, although that would work, I mean have a ball park. As broad as “workout clothes” or as specific as “a white jean skirt with no buttons and slight fraying,” which was on my list when I went on my most recent shopping day with my friends.…
