Sun Kissed Fun

In a past blog from May, Full of Life, I wore the blue two-toned version of this dress. 

These color block dresses have been my ultimate fave this season, right next to my high-low dresses! 

This deep orange and magenta high-low dress is Decree. It was purchased at JC Penney for only $5. The small braided gold belt came attached to the dress. 

 Fedoras are really a life saver on hot humid days. When my hairs just being wild and free with a mind of its own, I just thrown on a Fedora. A great way to manage the locks and still have style! This Fedora is from Payless Shoes for $10 and the same hat worn in Reminiscing from last October. 

This coral flower necklace is from Rue 21 for $8. 

Restyle: This coral mini-satchel was also featured in Pop of Pink - Easy Accessories. It is River Island, purchased for $10 at Plato's Closet. 

These brown and gold sandals are Chinese Laundry purchased at Plato's Closet for $8. 

Perfect Birthday Dress

I apologize for my lack of posts this summer. I decided to really focus on my career and build my resume. So I took on 2 jobs, 2 internships and played on a coed softball team. I was quite busy writing content for the blog at www.lsjmedia.com and this blog was a little left out.

 This is my Birthday Dress. I knew it was love at first sight, the contrast between the black top and  the sheer blush overlay! The fit is so feminine and flattering, it was perfect.  

I bought the dress at Plato's Closet for around $10. I'm pretty sure it's Charlotte Russe, although the label is cut off. 

The back is open with corset like crossing straps.   

My sister and nephew bought me this flower headband from Claire's for my Birthday. It was my summer obsession! Since I have such long hair, I wear it up in a bun a lot during the summer to keep cool. Buns are great because they can be fun yet they're also great for formal occasions. 

Here's a close up of my necklace. I bought it at Plato's Closet for about $5. Geometric patterns and shapes are such a hit right now! 

Contrasting leopard print with black is one of my favorite looks as well. This purse is Forever 21 and I bought it at Plato's Closet for $8. 

These strappy black sandals have a rather short heel compared to most of my heels which makes them more versatile. They are Madden Girl by Steve Madden which I purchased at Plato's Closet for around $8.
