If You're Thinking About... All White

(All images were found on google images)
There is something so classy about the All White trend, it's understated elegance at it's best. It's modern, sophisticated and is the perfect way to make a bold statement... I am not usually one to be obsessed with every single trend but this one I am in love with maybe it's because white is one of my favorite colors or maybe it's because of the purity of it and how clean and bold an all white ensemble is. Either way this trend has definitely won me over and I cannot wait to try it myself. About you guys do you love or hate it? Let me know.

Check out these items below and see if you'd like to try the trend yourself :)

OOTD | Denim and Polka Dots

Coucou mes amours,

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE BEAUTIFUL AND LOVING MOTHERS AROUND THE WORLD....

There is nothing more casual than a denim top and that's why it has become a staple piece in my closet. Denim tops are easy to style and super versatile as well, you can take them to school, to church, to the grocery store or the beach, that's why I think that every woman should invest in buying one.

For this look I chose to pair my denim top with this beautiful chiffon like skirt to create the perfect texture. I love pairing denim tops with more soft and girly pieces when I want to dress them up since they are so casual and all.... In case you are wondering I did wear this to go to church but I would wear it to go on a date or to go to brunch with girlfriends, and for school I would just ditch the heels for some flats and carry a bigger bag :) lol.

I hope you like the look and have a good night.

Biosux :)

Sunday Chic And The Cosmopolitan Bag

Coucou mes amours,

I hope y'all are having a good day, I am not :( it's been raining all day and my car gave me the biggest scare today :(..... I can't believe that in just three days it's going to be my birthday, whoo whoo whoo :) anybody can guess how old I'll be?`

Anyway this is what I wore last sunday to go to church, I decided to go for a super classy look while keeping it interesting and chic... While I love to wear black and white together, this time for just a pop of color I decided to pair the look with this amazing burgundy blazer that I found at Goodwill, remember "The Vintage Blazer" post where I wore it for the first time?

Now let us talk about my bag, ooh je l'adore, je l'adore, il est trop beau ce sac à main. I got it at Jcpenney about three weeks ago and I never got a chance to wear until that day, how stylish is it? And the price is amazing, just $50 what? I love the pattern snake print on the flap, it comes with a 23" flat shoulder strap but I removed mine that day so if you like it I definitely urge you to buy it is so worth it :).
 (This is not a sponsored post nor was the bag gifted, all opinions are my own) 

I hope that you guys like the outfit and good night.

The Worthington Skirt

Coucou mes amours,

I wore this on Sunday to go to church, I wanted to wear something more exciting than a dress, so I opted for this awesome printed baby pink Worthington skirt and this Liz Claiborne jumper that I purchased from JcPenney. Speaking of JcPenney, the one that I always go to is closing down May 1st, I am so mad and sad because that is my mommy's favorite store to shop at, and that's where we go when we want to do some mommy and daughter bonding :(. So if anyone reading this know how I can personally get in contact with JcPenney's board of directors, please let me know...

Now back to the outfit, at the exception of my purse, my necklace and my stockings everything that I am wearing is from JcPenney. Now you understand  why I am so sad :( I really wanted the skirt to be the focal point of the outfit that's why I wore black the perfect neutral color that really let the skirt stand out on it's on, I chose to carry that beautiful green bag for a bit of color play since it's spring and all :)

I hope you like the look and have a good day :)
Bisoux.

OOTD | The Black Dress

Hello My dolls,

I hope y'all are having a good Sunday and Happy Easter (for those of you who celebrate it :). 

Let's talk about my dress, shall we? I bought this dress in the beginning of March, you can say that it was love at first try :) it's a simple black dress really but the asymmetry on the back gives it a bit of a dramatic effect. It's like a blank canvas and with the right accessories the possibilities are endless. I decided to accessorize the dress with mostly gold jewelry, and added the coral shoes and necklace for a pop of color while letting the dress be the focal point...

I hope you guys like the outfit and have a wonderful day :)

BISOUX.

The Vintage Blazer

Coucou,

I hope y'all are doing O.K. it has been a while since I blogged and I missed it and I have missed you guys too... While I do love blogging,  I only do it when  I can and when I want to because I do not want it to become a chore otherwise I won't be able to enjoy it as much as I do now...

My outfit is pretty simple, I wanted to be comfortable yet chic and edgy in a semi casual sort of way if you know what I mean :). I wore this outfit to go out with mommy and sis... It was a bit chilly so I opted for these pleather pants and this amazing vintage burgundy blazer that I found at Goodwill...

This blazer is a new purchase and ever since I bought it I have been waiting for the perfect time to wear it and when I finally did I wanted it to be the focal point of the outfit so that's why I wore this all black ensemble with a Calvin Klein snakeskin beige belt for texture and an Anne Klein black and beige purse to accentuate the outfit.

Thrift Shopping | Goodwill Edition

Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love thrift shopping. Why you ask? It's because thrift shops are the best places to find one of a kind items that will make you stand out from the general population :)...

Thrift shopping can be either fun or overwhelming depending on who you are, so in this post I will give you a few tips on how I make thrift shopping fun and easy for myself and maybe for you too:

1. Always have a specific idea of what you need to buy in order to save you time, (for example when I went to Goodwill last night I knew that I needed high waist-ed pants/shorts so I went directly to the pants and shorts section which saved me so much time.)

2. Remember that if you find something that is a bit too big, you can always use the money that you saved by shopping at a thrift store to tailor that garment.

3.  We all know that thrift stores' clothing are a mixture of garments from different years and fashion eras so it's important to choose your clothes wisely, pick garments that are timeless, versatile and practical, especially if you are a fashionista on a budget. When it comes to prints be careful. Stick to prints that are always in vogue, such as animals prints;  or choose prints that are unique and trendy or something that you love and fit your style. If you are not into prints, monochromatic garments are always a good choice.

I hope this will be of use to you and I hope that the next time you go shopping you won't let the clothes intimidate you :)

Have a good week

OOTD | Comfort Is Key

Coucou,

Today is just a quick post on what I wore yesterday to run some errands with my sister, it was a bit chilly and it rained on and off so I opted for something that would keep me warm and comfortable... This jumper that I am wearing is a new purchase and is my new love at the moment, it's so comfortable and thick enough to keep me warm.

I hope you guys are enjoying your week and also I will like to welcome my new wonderful readers :) to the blog and thank you to everyone who has been with me since the beginning, it means the world to me.

Have a good day.

Bisoux.

Stripes and Leopard | Happy Birthday Mommy

Coucou,

First of I would like to wish my mommy who I love so much a Happy Birthday, she is such an amazing woman, so supportive, beautiful, kindhearted and strong :) I am so lucky to be her daughter :) ♥♥♥

I hope you all are doing OK and that you guys are having a good year so far :) For me it's very hectic, I started Uni this week, I am doing my bachelors in Fashion Merchandising at the AI institutes and since my Uni is like two hours away and my classes start at 8 in the morning, I have to wake up at 4 in the am get ready and as soon as my classes are over at 12 pm I have to drive straight back home to go to my full time job and work 2 to 10 pm. Fun right?

... Anyway I wore this outfit to go shopping with my sister on New Year and was supposed to upload it the next day but I never got around to do it, shame on me :)... For this look I wanted to be comfortable yet fashionable, so I whipped out my awesome UO shirt that I have had for what seems like forever and paired it with this amazing  Princess Vera x Vera Wang skirt that I am so in love with and added the leopard flats for a bit of pattern mixing. And of course I had to go crazy with the jewelry haha :) what can I say? I am a jewelry junkie :)...

Have an amazing Weekend :)

Pretty In Pleats

Bonjour,

I am so excited to come with a part two to my "Broke But Stylish" segment of my blog and this time I chose to share with you a very fun and girly look... I bought this dress at ROSS a couple of weeks ago and I am so in love with it because of its silhouette; it's one of those dresses that flatters almost every body type and since it's so simple it can be dressed up or down, which is perfect for a girl on a budget...

For this look, I wanted the dress to be the center of attention and chose accessories that would complement it instead of overpowering it. That's why I paired it with this beautiful bag with the same color scheme as the dress and a statement necklace with the same color details. I added the animal printed  pumps to complete the look and to give it a little bit of texture. 

I hope you guys like this look and don't forget : "It's never about what you wear, it's how you wear it."

That Banana Republic Coat

I am loving my coat, it's absolutely lovely and it's so lightweight which is perfect since I live in Florida. I love the simplicity of it and the color is just amazing; it is so classy. I actually got it sometimes last year and I remember looking everywhere for a coat like this and when I found this beauty it had to be mine...

A bientôt.

Broke But Stylish | A Rebel's Diary

One of the biggest misconceptions about me is that I am rich, um, no. Over the years, especially when I was going to college, many people would ask me if I were rich? And when I would ask them why, they would tell me that it's because of how I dress, and I remember the look on their faces when I would tell them that the particular item that they loved so much only cost me two dollars at the thrift store...

A true fashionista will look her best whether she is wearing Prada or Nada, because style has nothing to do with how much money you have, and that is a fact. How do I know that? I know that because I do it on a daily basis and I have been doing it for years. And now I will show you how I do it through this new segment that I have decided to incorporate on my blog called: Broke But Stylish.

So to kickoff our brand new segment I put together this very feminine yet edgy look and it was all under $100, amazing right?

The Perfect Pair x Nine West

Have you ever been searching for something and when you finally found it, you just felt like the happiest person in the the world? Yes, maybe? I know I did when I found these babies. Aren't they gorge? I first saw these at the mall and when I went back for them they were gone :(, so I made it my mission to find them; they were quite expensive, almost one hundred and something but I didn't care. However a couple weeks ago I found them at ROSS and they were only $25.99 and the best thing is I was able to get them at an extra 40% off, SCORE, so I ended up paying just $16 and change for them, that's what I call a bargain :)

What I love about them besides that they are animal print is that they are so classy. They are the perfect way to add a little bit of pizazz to any outfit and they are so versatile, which means that you can wear them with everything in your closet: skinnies, dresses, shorts, midi, skater skirts and even your maxi skirt. I have recently wore them with my fake leather skater skirt and shorts and I loved how the outfits turned out. Can't wait to share the pics with you guys :)

Have a good week and thank you for all your support :)

Bisoux.

Girly Saturday

Coucou

With the presidential election coming up and everyone going crazy, my brother and I decided to go vote today with the hopes that the line would be shorter; Uhm no that did not happen, we waited and waited, and waited. And after two and half hours of waiting we finally got to vote, yay :) What about you guys? Are you going to vote? If you are still undecided, I think you should go and vote, and it doesn't matter who you support. What matters is that you make your voice heard by voting :) just saying...

Have a good weekend and stay fabulous my wonderful readers :)
