The Sexy Skort




You would think it being summer, I should dress in bright colors or at least pastels....no, not this girl. I can never seem to give up my black and white. Place me in a section of clothes and I guarantee you will discover me browsing in the black, white maybe even gray section.
Now on with the outfit...when I hear of skorts, I think of tennis or elementary school.  So I played around in my wardrobe and created the sexy skort :) Black shorts underneath a sheer skirt...got to improvised.

Mix & Match in the Rain







Good afternoon beauties!
Excuse the horrible lighting and the not so great photos...I had a mini photo-shoot in the rain this morning :) This post is in regards to Saturday's post on recycling pieces and getting creative. Here are a few different looks with the same skirts...yes skirts.  If you look at the photo above, the skirt to the right which is a body hugging (Papaya) skirt is under the pleated skirt to the left (Thrifted).  The reason for layering up the skirts is because the skirt to the left is sheer and has no lining, so instead of adding the lining, I decided to improvise while being able to play around with the different lengths underneath. I think every other week I'm going to post different looks around one item, so let me know what item you want to see next for next week :)

Nummies and the Sunrise
Neely Mack Black Soft Leather Book bag

Faux leather pants

I came back home for Christmas break with one big suitcase and a duffle bag....now I'm leaving with two big suitcases and two duffle bags and my kitty cat Monster is not happy about my departure. During my two and a half week break, it was my mission to get a nice book bag and my mission was completed today :D I am in LOVE with my new Neely Mack Leather Book bag!!! The leather is so soft, you can literally see my finger print at the bottom of the bag. Another item I wasn't planning on getting were the faux leather pants which I la la loveeee!!!

I'm not going to ramble on, but I hope you all have a successful semester/quarter and I hope that you have a beautiful week!!!

Half of my NYE outfit & Some Christmas Gifts

Part of my NYE outfit designed by my grandmother

Christmas gift: Light gray raincoat: H&M



Christmas Gift: ACDC t-shirt & black jeggings
Shoes: Forever21-- Makeup: Loreal Mascara -- Eyeliner: E.L.F. -- Mineral Powder: Bare Escentuals

Random photo at my favorite grocery store Whole Foods :)

Christmas Gift: Chocolate stick to make hot chocolate yum yum yum!

Christmas gift: Body Shop -- Tangerine

Like I said in my last post, slowly but surely, I will post all my gifts up for you beautiful readers to see.  Here are some of my Christmas gifts that I used today :) I adore my new raincoat!!!! I have received so many compliments on it! I was in dire need of a light neutral coat since I'm so drawn to black, but this particular style is great with leggings and a sweater and works fabulous with a dress. I received a lot of shirts and sweaters for Christmas, but I will always be a t-shirts girl. Whenever I'm out running errands, I love being comfortable. I did my grocery shopping at Whole foods and threw on this ACDC shirt with my black jeggings and cheetah boots (& my gray sweater).  Next photo, my chocolate sticks! I'm not so much of a hot chocolate girl, but the dark chocolate sticks are super yummy and not overly sweet.  But!!! What is sweet is my Body shop lotion and show gel yum yum yum!!! I LOVE their body butter!!! A little goes a long way and all of their scents are so delicious!!! Now the best for last....my NYE skirt :) I had left over fabric and my grandmother decided to create this fun skirt for me.  I'm not sure what type of top I'm going to wear, but I will definitely have pictures up with the final piece.  Well I hope you all are doing great!!! I really hope it rains today :)
