Plaid and Uggs!

Morning world!  I had this orange plaid shirt from Ashley Stewart for a while now, but I wasn't ever sure how I was going to style it!  The idea for the outfit kinda just came to me out of no where when I was in a rush a few days ago and had to attend a little get together!  Its ridicuously cold in NJ and that means the snow isn't melting at all so i definitely knew i was going to wear some boots, which probably meant my uggs!  My mom absolutely hates Uggs!!!  They keep your feet so warm, I love them.   I went through like 2 other options when I started mixing and matching items to get this good look.  The belt came off of a BabyPhat jumper that I haven't worn yet!  I originally had it on with the first look I was going for!  I kept it on and I really liked how it all came together.  The splash of lavender made the outfit a little more feminine or girly.  Which normally looks rather rugged.  Please let me know what you think?!?!

Hey everybody!  NJ got hit with a crazy snow storm a few days ago that is not melting any time soon and it seems like we will have another one on monday.  Driving in the snow stinks and all the black ice can be dangerous, but when it was coming down I enjoyed it.  Me, my boyfriend, and friend Tamera and her boyfriend were bored after being stuck in the house for almost 2days we all ventured out and took some great pics!  They are NOT fashionable what so ever!!!!  So I wanted to take sometime to thank all of you for following my blog.  I am up to 11 folowers and that means a lot to me cause I try to put as much in it as possible!  So thank U thank U!!!  Please keep coming back and pass it along to your friends!!!!!

Props 2 Lane Bryant

When Lane Bryant's Icon Collection came out I instantly fell in-love with this stylish coat.  I wasn't in-love with the price at the time.  When I finally came back to my local Lane Bryant it was gone and I didn't hunt it down like i usually do.  I hardly ever shop at Lane Bryant, maybe 4 to 5 times a year, but usually its for bras and panties and I am lucky if I find anything else I really love.  So when Lane Bryant was having a big bra sale recently of course I was invited.  (Via Coupons)  When I stepped foot into the store I immediately saw the coat I have been jonesing for since Fall.  And here it is....!  I paired it with some Grey Leggings I had in my closet, I think from Walmart, a old shirt/dress/tunic that I had from Old Navy, my lovely flat wide calf boots from Torrid, and my new purse from Ross!  I know its purple but recently I heard someone say find a purse that doesn't go with anything and wear it with everything!  I like that philosophy!   ( O yeah!  I got my camera working again...YES! )

Bag it!

I wanted to a post about Bags as they are one of our most important accessories.  Sometimes a whole outfit is built around the bag.  So i figure give the Purse/bag world its just desserts.  Now when I'm shopping for a bag online my favorite spots to stop by are MODCLOTH or BEYONDTHERACK.  When its a instore purchase you can usually catch me at Ross, Marshalls, Macys, or Thrift Stores.  Whether I can afford them or not I am going to show you some of my favorite bags out from online and 1 cute recent purchases.  Hope you all like it!

ModCloth does a great job with trendy, modern bags.  They have a variety of colors and I love the color mustard right now and i am definitely looking to add the right one to my wardrobe soon, so hopefully it will make the cut.  Modcloth also ranges in price.  I was really hurt cause i discovered this bag within the last week, which means i have to visit http://www.modcloth.com/ more often, because its sold out!!!  The good thing you can sign up with modcloth so they can shoot you an email when the bag is bag in stock.  This beauty is $99.00.  Not bad!

The Burberry Beat Check Tote With Patent Leather Trim I drooled when i saw it.  I had to ask myself why, because i know you can find something like this way cheaper, but i think it looks classey and luxurious.  Theres many different fabrics going on as well, like patent leather and Nylon.  The price is so intimidating, but I'm not going to count it out, you never know what may happen!  ( fingers crossed )  I found this one on http://www.beyondtherack.com/ and this site is great its a discount site with new sales always starting.  Like this sale ends today but they always have more sales coming.  They have a Chinese Laundry shoe sale going on right now and Paris hilton watches and all of these luxury items are like 30 % to 70 % off!!!  You should really check this site out if you haven't already I haven't seen any plus size sales yet, but hey find something you like in a large or x-large and see how it works for you.  By the way this bag is $999.00 WOW!  Like i said fingers crossed!  Serioulsy check them out!

I found this cute cocktail bag at the local "Red, White and Blue".  I love it i will wear it soon hopefully, i got a couple partys coming up!  It can be worn over the shoulder or you can take the straps off, which what i will probably end up doing and using it as a clutch!

Leave me some comments guys or send me a pic of your latest and flyest bag purchase!

Back 2 school

Sorry i haven't been posting more regularly, im really going to improve that in the next couple of weeks, right now i'm in the process of moving and starting school!  So i haven't been wearing anything to fashionable lately...Well until today.  The official first day of school and i finally got to whip out my boyfriend blazer from torrid that i hunted down in my size last month.  I love black and gray, so if i can wear them together i go for it, my camera was acting funny and I'm not the best with electronics so until my cousin comes by to fix it, we gotta deal with the camera phone pics...let me know what u think!!!

Kicks!

One thing u may not know about me but is definitely worth knowing is my obsession with sneakers!!!  I love, love, love, sneakers, i probably buy a pair a month! (which my mother thinks is outrageous)  I usually buy Nike dunks, or jordans or adidas originals.  Soon i will do a post of what i believe are my flyest kicks!  But their are some that are a little out of my price range but i still dare to dream!!!  I also wear a size 11 which can be a little tricky shoe shopping depending on how u look at it!  But it makes the fashion find even more challenging for me and i love it!  Here are some kicks out and about and about to come out that i am dying 4!

1.  Lanvin spring 2010!  This is the Lanvin Hightop Cap toe sneaker.   Beautiful textures and colors,  they're priced at Barneys in the $700 price range.  But omg, the color is what makes me crave them.  Immediately i think of spring!

2.  The ever so sleek and beautiful "Nike Air Scandal".  I already have these in black and i plan on getting these very soon!  They are super skinny and slim to go along with any skinny jean.  Its a beautiful feminie sneaker nike came out with to be the perfect female counterpart sneaker to their ever male famous sneaker "Nike Air Vandals".  Oh my this sneaker is it!  You can find it at http://www.journeys.com/ i believe the price is $69.00 but i saw them at a DSW store for more!

3.  This is probably my next buy right here.  They're affordable, fashionable, and functional in a everyday way.  ( which i think is real important when it comes to sneakers)  they gotta be comfotable!  "Nike Snowwaffle" womens.  You can find them in footlocker, you have to order them online if you need an 11 or up!  I love this sneaker because when you see it up person it looks a lot like a great winter boot!  The more i researched it i found out its insulated on the inside and does have traction for the winter months.  Perfect for the snow!  I really want these!  Usually  around $75.00!

Tell me what you think do you guys wanna hear more about sneakers?  Do any of you have sneaker fetishes or wanna put us D on any sneakers coming out or brands you love!  Leave a post i love to hear it!
