Raise your hand if you're more than ready for winter to be over {I don't think my hand can raise any higher...sigh}. I love Iowa, I love seasons, but I am so ready for spring. Wah I know {ha ha}! One thing I do love about winter months are layers, layers, and more layers. I think I've outworn this lovely military vest and my oh my does it go nicely with different looks. Although this one was from last season, I've been looking effortlessly to find a military jacket that I can outwear as well...I'm thinking this one here and here. Thoughts?
Confession, I use to be that person who would try on clothes, think ahhhhh, and just purchase it. I'm actually very selective and conscious of what I purchase because A. I'm a sucker for bargains and B. It's all about the fit. When I describe my body type I say that I'm "hippy" and the normal response is "oh my gosh stop." Don't get me wrong there are days I stare in the mirror and think....was that half of box of girl scout cookies really worth it {Peanut Butter Patties to be exact} and damn it my heart tells me yes...but my body rolls it eyes in utter regret.. {yes I just said that}. However, I do adore my curves but playing up certain portions is crucial and getting it right isn't always a breeze.
A little advice....and I'm no expert...{so lessons I've learned} the outer layer piece of clothing always looks flattering longer than the piece that is being layered {if that makes sense, ha ha..example sweater layered with a longer vest or jacket}, skinny legged denim highlights any good curve {make sure the length isn't an awkward length}, and a sleek black bootie which accentuates the legs making them appear longer. That's my fashion two cents and again...those have been some of my go to tricks.
Anyways, I'm a day late and a dollar short..I wanted to inform you all of the great President Sale BaubleBar had for grabs and well.... I missed out on the deal. However, you can receive 15% off on your first purchase and these are a couple statement pieces I'm currently craving....this fab spiked gold necklace here and this lovely finger bling here. My necklace above it also still for grabs here and I love love the neutral tones. As I usually like to sit and wait for another irresistible deal....I no longer can fight temptation and will have to add these lovely things to the ole collection...if not now than tomorrow {lol}.
Good morning and great day!
