Inexpensive OOTD | Embellishment & Sneakers

Charlotte Russe Sneakers - Old Navy Jeans - JCP Embellished Sweatshirt - Fossil Watch

I love dressing down in casual wear more than dressing up. Casual looks can be just as cute and sexy as heels and skirts. This is one of my inexpensive OOTD because I got a great deal on everything I purchase:

$26 Sneakers - Charlotte Russe Sale

$10 Sweatshirt - JCP on Sale + I had a coupon

$15-Jeans - Old Navy Sale (I received a coupon to use towards a future purchase which explains the price range on my purchase of these jeans)

Pretty great deals huh? I've provided direct links for the items I purchased if you decide that online shopping is easiest for you. Don't forget to sign up for Ebates first so you can receive a BIG FAT CHECK! Yes, it's free and every purchase you make earns you free cash back :)

4th of July|OOTD

Of course I wouldn't skip wearing Red, White, and Blue on July 4th! This was yesterday's OOTD and I'm going to keep it quick and simple.

I did a post on this blouse previously last year for a Wine Festival I attended. That was my first time wearing it and yesterday was my 2nd. I cannot believe I received so many compliments on this blouse once again. I guess I'm not the only one who loves skulls.

What Else Am I wearing?

Gold Trim Aviator Sunglasses - Local Beauty Supply Store (BSS)
American Eagle - Jeggings
Lips - M.A.C. Candy Yum Yum

I have been on the hunt and prowl for these metal trim shoes since I saw them, but I missed them and they have been sold out for months. The shoes Gods told me to go to F21 for some shopping and I saw one pair of these shoes AND they were in my size. I couldn't believe it. The guy said they were hiding in a box in the back and he just brought them out mins before I arrived. They were meant for me:))

Who wants some Arm Candy? Yummy

Hey Everyone! It's Monday and the start of a busy week for me. I hope everyone had a great weekend. I will be attending a Wine Festival this weekend and I cannot wait. I have been working non stop so having some downtime with the girlz is really exciting and I will be sharing my time there with you guys like I did before on my YouTube channel (below)

Alright back to the subject at hand. I am in love with my most recent arm candy or "arm party" like my girlfriend (friend that's a girl) says.

J. Crew Mini Ram 

Left Hand:

* J. Crew Mini Ram 

My coworker brought in her J. Crew Hinge Cuff and I fell in love so I had to order one asap. Luckily for me J. Crew had their Mini Ram on Sale. It wasn't the one my coworker had but for the price it will work for me. Instead of paying 99.99 for the bracelet I grabbed it for 69.99 with an add'l 30% off. I recommend you guys check them out before they are all gone. When the bracelet is closed, it measures to a little over 2.5in wide. The mini rams have blue eyes and they're holding onto a gold diamond or rhinestone ring. It's really beautiful in person and the pictures do no justice at all. Hurry Hurry Hurry LOL

* JewelMint Ever Frost Ring which is currently on sale for $9 and almost SOLD OUT (Reg 29.99)

* JewelMint Cinema Americano (sold out)

* JewelMint Golden Goose Bracelet (sold out)

Right Hand:

* Target Bracelet

* Fossil Watch

*JewelMint Friendship Bracelets (a variety)

For the pieces that are sold out, check out eBay because usually you can find the items there. The prices range but I have gotten good deals from there so don't be discouraged :)

OOTD - JustFab, JewelMint, ShopLately, & Forever 21

Hey Everyone! I wanted to share with you one of my most recent OOTD's. The weather is changing, fall is here, and so is fall fashions. I love it! I do not like the cold at all but the fall isn't too bad because it's highs and lows so I can deal with that. Also it reminds me of the Spring (I'm a spring baby). On this particular day I decided to put on one of my all time favorites. A BLAZER! I love Blazers so much as some of you may already know. I enjoy wearing them because you can dress em up or down and I feel like everything looks good with a blazer.

Cut to Perfection Collar Necklace - Gold

I have never really been into the collar necklaces because I was afraid. I thought I wouldn't be able to pull it off so I just steered away from those neck pieces all together. Also I didn't really own any collared shirts so the necklaces wouldn't have worked for me. I'm in love now y'all :)

Sparkling Reptile Collar Tip Pins - Black

On this particular day I wore the Cut to Perfection Necklace but had to try the Collar Pins on just to see how they'd look. I would recommend these pins to those who are feeling the way I use to feel or just iffy overall. They add just the right about of pizazz to a top and are an easy way to dress up any blouse. I am very happy with my purchase and ready for the new change of moving into the "collared" world. What took me so long?!?! SMH

Blazer: Forever 21 (last year's design)
Shoes: JustFab Payson in Nude (I wear a true size 9 but had to order these in a 10)
Jeans: Forever 21
Blouse: Forever 21
Necklaces: Shop Lately
Bracelet: JewelMint (I cannot think of the name of this bracelet. I'm sorry)
Earrings: JewelMint Tailor Made
Lips: MAC Film Noir
Nails: American Apparel Raccoon

BaubleBar Marbled Gumdrop Duo Earrings Review

Hellooooo Everyone! How are you wonderful ladies & gents doing today? Fab I hope! I want to share with you my thoughts on these Marbled Gumdrop Duo Earrings in Turquoise that I purchased as part of  BaubleBar's Buried Bauble. I enjoy BB and Friday's are a great chance to get amazing deals from them. The item they select as the Buried Bauble can be anything from a necklace, earrings, bracelet etc. for only $10! When I saw these I grabbed them because the price was great and because I have always been a lover of turquoise and green shades especially when it comes to jewelry items. Looking at the picture of the model wearing these helped me with my purchase too.

When I received these I was a little sad at how boring they looked. I knew what size they were before I purchased them, but I thought they would pop more than they actually do on me. I love the bold color with the gold trim but they are not for me. When I think about who would like something like this, I think of my grandmother. They would be perfect for her. Not saying that is a bad thing but everything does not fit everyone. 

What did I decide to do with these earrings? 

Even though they were only $10 with free S&H I am returning these earrings and continuing to check every Friday for more BaubleBar deals :)

If you're interested in purchasing from BaubleBar and grabbing any of their pieces including their Buried and Platinum Bauble feel free to use my link for your purchase(s). They have really good pieces and you can definitely find items that are reasonably priced.

JustFab NIKITA Review & OOTN

Welcome to my wonderful world of JustFab! I cannot stop talking about my Mary Jane pumps. OMG! I was watching a fellow YouTuber who was doing a review on these pumps and my mouth dropped. When ShoeMint started they had a similar pump called Edith that I liked but was iffy on purchasing because I was unsure if I wanted to do another membership club. By the time I realized that I indeed wanted Edith they were no longer available for purchase so I'm glad I saw these babes because they are   Fab :)

How does JustFab work? As a VIP member (which I currently am), you pay 39.95 which is the cost for all of their shoes. When you skip a month so you will not be charged 39.95 until you decide to make a purchase. I love that when you do skip a month with JustFab because you are able to see on their site that you have skipped as soon as you log in. It gives you that confirmation that they have done what you've requested. Also if you decide to cancel at anytime you can on their site as well. JustFab is different from JewelMint because you have to contact them via chat or telephone to cancel which can be a hassle especially when you are pressed for time like I usually am. JustFab also has the option to Pay As You Go. The price varies on each shoe which is more than the 39.95 but there is no monthly membership so you do not have to worry about skipping.

What are my thoughts on my Nikita Pumps? When I purchased these the deal for new customers was Buy One, Get one 50% off. I purchased these in a size 9 along with their nude Payson in a size 9 (Payson and Nikita are pretty much the same style shoe in my opinion). When I received both pumps they were even more prettier in person than they were on their site. My biggest fear was that the shoes would look cheap and flimsy. I want to be honest with you guys because sometimes shoes appear that way when you see them in a ad or picture. It is ok to not pay a lot for shoes but I do not want my shoes to look cheap. That is a huge turn off to me! These do NOT look like a discount shoe at all which is why I was so surprised. The only downside was that I could not fit a 9 in either shoe. The reviews from JustFab says the shoes are true to size but they are not. If you can order a half size up I recommend that you do. In my case I had to go a full size up since they do not carry 9.5. I returned them both and was able to exchange the Nikita for a size 10 but Payson was out of stock. JustFab issued me a credit that I recently was able to use to get Payson which are on the way to me. The shoes have a 2in hidden platform with a super sexy high heel. Its 6inches of lusciousness. LOL

Me and the girlz went out for some fine Indian cuisine. Nikita went with me for my OOTN

BaubleBar Taj Crystal Bib Review

Well Hello There! How is everyone's Monday going and how was your weekend? I took too long of a break from school, but I am back. Don't ask me why I took a break during the cooler months and decided to go back when it's nice and hot out. SMH. Anywhoo I miss you guys and had to do a post because it's been way too long. I wanted to share with you my newest babe from BaubleBar. This is the Taj Crystal Bib in the color Hematite. 

The necklace was part of BaubleBar platinum bauble so I was able to snag this gorgeous necklace for only $20! I wore it today for the first time and received so many compliments. This is a hot necklace. Hematite was the only color left when I joined the fun, but it's the color I would have picked anyway(Thanks Sophia!). I love the darkness of the necklace because it makes the stones shine and pop even more. Also black is one of my favorite colors. I tried to find the necklace so you guys can purchase one if you'd like and the necklace is gone. I am shocked because usually if a piece is out of stock or sold out it will say that on BaubleBar's site but not this time. There is nothing at all about this neck piece on their site that I could find so I'm sorry :( 

If you are interested in buying this necklace I would recommend 

you keep checking out BaubleBar 

& join them on FB so you don't miss the next bauble

What I'm wearing: 

** Kelly Green Blazer -  LuLu's 

** Carrot Gold Matte Lipstick - Wet N'Wild

** Hematite Earrings - Forever 21 

** White Tank - Forever 21

OOTD Video coming soon........

JewelMint Lovely Audrey Earrings Review

Isn't she Lovely, Isn't she wonderful?(I love Stevie)! Yep, these are my newest Audrey earrings by JewelMint and they are beyond gorgeous. I did not want pink because I'm not really a pink gal. Also, I was kinda worried that these pink earrings would look cheesy but I couldn't have been more wrong! These are cute, simple, and classic. 

Look at how crystal clear they are when you see them with my Forever Audrey.
They are shiny sparklers and every gal should own at least one pair.
I believe that JewelMint Audrey earrings are the pieces
that are worth 29.99 and more. The other Audrey
earrings by JewelMint are Very Audrey and Darling Audrey.

Forever Audrey

I do not know anyone that doesn't love their Audrey earrings. I always feel like a princess when I wear mines. What are your thoughts?

If you like my post and interested in joining JewelMint as a result, feel free to use my link here! 
I will receive a credit from them for a future purchase. I appreciate ya :-)

1st ShopLately Purchase w/BaubleBar Tangerine Triad Collar Dupe

Hello Everyone and TGIF! Let me explain how excited I am about this post. I was sharing with one of my FBF (Facebook Friends) that I wanted some jewelry, but did not want to pay much because as you guys know I have more than enough now. She told me about ShopLately and that they have lots of good quality items at a great price. I checked out the site every so often, but never purchased anything until this past weekend when they had a holiday sale. I couldn't be more shocked and happily surprised with the items I received. 

Collar necklaces are the new IT items and I wanted one to add to my collection. Also neon is the new trend too so I went for both. A Neon Collar Necklace!

Neon Geo Collar Necklace

Back of the necklace. It's really sturdy & I will be wearing it on both sides. LOL

 This necklace is so hot and fiery. I love how bright it is but it's not too over the top. I cannot wait to do a OOTD and show you guys. 

You will be stunned to see how similar this necklace is to BaubleBar's Tangerine Triad Collar Necklace. My mouth dropped. Check out the picture here
However, BaubleBar's necklace is $32 while ShopLately has this for $16.50.
Huge difference right? LOL. Exactly!!!!

Zipped Up Statement Earrings

I also decided to purchased these earrings which are unique like myself. They are huge zippers. How cute and I love the length.

As part of my purchase, ShopLately included 3 friendship bracelets for free. They picked the colors which was fine with me since they cost me $0 and they are cute. Sorry, I could not find a direct link for these. They remind you of the bracelets I purchased from Target huh? I think so too. Check out that post here. 

Overall, I am glad my GF told me about ShopLately. It's shopping but without breaking the bank. Also, the shipping is $2.99 but that's not bad. When I received my items, they included $5 off my next purchase so Yay!!!!
If you would like to join ShopLately, feel free to use use my link and do some Happy Shopping.
