QUEEN BEE/sequin top

Physics shows that a bee can't fly.  But bees do fly. 

Keep that in mind.

WE MAKE THE COMMITMENT/mesh football jersey

I'm pretty much obsessed with this thrifted mesh jersey.  I found this gem in the kids department at our local thrift store and I've already planned our future together.  I mean...this could go with fancy mini skirts, jeans, leggings or maybe even my Wang tuxedo pants!  I'm so in love!

THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT/brian atwood neiman marcus + target beaded round sunglasses

We took these pics weeks ago and I had no intention of posting them.  However, after revisiting these pictures, they kind of started to grow on me.

I am doing what I do best in these pictures.  I am turning a long skirt into a mini dress...something I do quite often.  I just prefer myself in minis and that is mainly because I am so short.  I have to say that this Ashley O'Rourke skirt has been a dress more often than a skirt, but I still consider it to be one of my best buys of all time.

SPRING DEPRIVED/christian siriano for payless margo oxford

Just when I thought it was spring, we end up having another snowstorm.  I seriously can't take much more!  These pics were taken on one of our warm weekends.  I was so excited to whip out my shorts and my new metallic oxfords.  

These shoes are from Payless.  Yes, I know...don't judge.  I check Payless every season for the designer collections.  Mainly because I have scored some majorly cool shoes by doing so.  This season I fell in love with these Siriano metallic oxfords.  Dress them down with jeans and shorts or dress them up with a fancy dress.  Check the Christian Siriano S/S 2013 show...these shoes are there looking lovely.  And...they are also on the Payless site for only $45!   

This will be the last you hear from me for a couple of weeks.  Jerrmaner and I leave for Eastern Europe on Sunday.  Will return with lots of photos!

TWINKLE & SHINE/swarovski crystallized chic glamour bracelet

Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  The holidays are always so crazy and this year is no exception.  

 Will be posting again very soon, but for now, I leave you with bracelet layering, In RETROspect and Swarovski Crystallized.

SMELLS LIKE.../grunge-inspired layers

So inspired by the 3.1 Phillip Lim S/S 2013 collection.  I just couldn't wait to start my 

grunge-inspired layering after seeing the runway shots...and I certainly couldn't wait until next spring.   

I am a strong believer in instant gratification, so I opted to execute my interpretation immediately.
