Hey loves! I hope everyone had a productive work week cause now it’s time to relax for the weekend- thank goodness. Sorry for the wait, but I finally got the time to take photos of all of the items I wanted to share with you all. Plus, I had to wait on a few items to be delivered but good things come to those who wait. Oh, and let me introduce my best friend Vanessa aka my mannequin; she’s going to be my model for today. Let’s get started !
Charlotte Russe
For starters, I have had a pair of Cheetah print wedges but they needed to be retired once and for all. I stumbled on these a few days ago, but I didn’t purchase them right away. I waited a little while and to my satisfaction, they went on sale; I bought these for only $10- that’s insane ! I haven’t worn them out yet, but I’ve walked around the house in them for a while and they seem rather comfortable plus the heel isn’t crazy high so I can tell I will be able to wear them for a good amount of time.
I’ve come to a conclusion that I’m absolutely loving shoes that lace around my and/or anything that laces up my leg. It just makes me feel sexy and it gives the shoe a chic appeal to me. Well, these are no different. I wore these one night out and my feet didn’t hurt at any point of my night- this includes me dancing in them for a few songs. Plus, I’ve never gone wrong with a black heel so I have gladly added these into my collection.
When it come to jewelry, I tend to gravitate toward items that are gold/rose gold and dainty. Both of these were on sale for $5, so I decided to grab them. So far, I’ve worn the necklace a few times and have received a lot of compliments on it. I still have to try the rings, but I’m sure they can be paired with a little bit of everything so I’m not worried. Nonetheless, I’m glad that I purchase these.
What clothes collection is complete without one plaid shirt? Well, considering mine, my collection has grown with the passing seasons but what sold me on this is the peekaboo back; I adore it ! It definitely adds a little flare to the usual plaid shirt.
Windsor
It’s becoming apparent that the olive green/khakis color trend has hit my heart hard. It doesn’t matter where I shop, if it comes in those colors I’m more prone to purchase it. I found this store while I was out of town and it’s a new place for me, but I loved literally everything there. This dress caught my eye while I was in line and because of the color, I took a chance and bough it. It is a fitted dress (like I need anymore), but the detailing on the front is simple and pretty. Plus, it’s a good length especially since I have long legs. I’m thinking of wearing this out or I may keep it for a special occasion.
This is THE dress for me right now. Every time I look at it, I fall in love with it again. What she of me, is the back; I swoon over pretty much anything that shows off my back. For the front to be so simple and elegant, the back definitely turns it up a notch.
H&M
Affordable jewelry, that lasts forever and is super cute- go to H&M. For the past few years, I have built a rather large collection of jewelry that I still wear today. These two in particular, I actually didn’t love right off the back but I got them because of their price. Once I paired them with a few items, I realized why I found them. Versatility to the end!
You can never have too many everyday tops, right? That’s why I picked this one up; it’s comfy and has a nice fit to it. And the color was calling my name, so I couldn’t say no.
Forever 21
I literally picked this up because it was cold outside. I wasn’t really thinking about it becoming one of my favorite jackets. It is incredibly soft and comfortable, plus it’s cute. It’s a soft blue, so I usually pair it with a plain shirt like I have done above. I highly recommend anyone to find and purchase it to anyone who asks me about it.
J Lux Label
I’ve been living under a rock. I don’t even know why I talked myself into not purchasing these. Why didn’t you guys tell me that I should have bought bodysuits ages ago? I have a love/hate relationship with ticking in my shirt and this totally fixes my issue. I like the fit and stretch that comes with them, plus they come in a vast variety of colors for any occasion. For the moment, I just lounge around in them so they aren’t uncomfortable in the slightest.
Francesca’s
What is this: a clutch, a bad, a crossbody purse? How about all of the above ! The camel color and gold detailing is what drew me in, but the amount of space and the added shoulder strap that came with it is what fully sold me. I’ve been waiting on a girl’s night out to bring this baby out and see what outfit I pair with it. You guys will be the first to see how I fix this one up.
That’s it folks! I hope you all enjoyed this post and I’d love for you all to share which items are your favorites or the new items you all think I should check out next; comment down below or let me know via Instagram @StyledByLaRae.
