Style Tip: Being Bold, In the Cold.

Hello there. Not too much to say today except. BE BOLD! No matter how chilly the weather, I am always up for being bold. I know the season change but I love mint, neon pink and bright colors in the fall. I scored this lovely high-low sleeveless dress at Plato's Closet for ten bucks!  I wasn't sure at first how I would work this thing. Once I got it home though I knew it would work out. Sometimes when out thrifting or just shopping, making one bold choice for a focal piece can make the outfit. If you aren't comfortable doing it up like this, choose a statement piece like an intricate necklace, bright colored scarf, or a patterned heel. What ever suits you. It was freezing outside when these were taken. The temperature was dropping by the minute. By the time we left I was shivering into my coat.

Enough about me, what is your bold statement go to when you are feeling fearless?

I am most certainly loving my new BonLook frames. They grew on me very quickly. 

I took this one because this was such a beautiful flower. I couldn't leave without snapping one. 

Here's a silhouette photo taken by Dan. He just has a good eye I guess. I just like this one. :D

Orange You Clad

Hello Lovelies! Yesterday, Texas finally started feeling a bit more like the REAL November that I know and loved in New York City. COLD! A Nice, breezy, cold front rolled in during the late afternoon which caused me to reach for my peter pan collared baby doll swing coat! I love this coat with all my heart. I feel like a little fancy lady wearing it. Also, on Monday I received my brand spankin' new BonLook frames in the mail. I ordered La Marquise in Tortoise and I have a winner. I've never glasses ordered online and I was so surprised & pleased that my frames fit so well without an actual try on. Also I lucked out on one of their coupon deals and scored a pair of prescription frames for only $75 buckaroos. Free shipping! I am in love with them. My dearest approved them as well which is great since he had no idea what kind of frames I ordered. Anyway, I had a lovely Tuesday and am having a fantastic Wednesday. I have been gone a while so fill me in on what's shaking in your neck of the woods! Cheers to all!

***On a side note, I have been feeling quite a bit of Holiday cheer already. ;)

What We Wore

Hello!! Its been a long 2 weeks. Midterms are over and I am now looking ahead to Finals and the next semester. I started a new job and have been called in a few days so, I have not been as active. I will try to be better about posting. If I am inactive on here feel free to follow me on instagram or twitter. I have been better about posting on there when I am not active on blogger. Any whoot! Dan and I were heading to Pet Smart on Sunday to grab our beardie a better heat lamp. Turns out its keeping him warmer. Yay! We took some pictures together. His were cooler than mine because of the hour we went out there. You can't ever guess how the lighting will be in the evenings now. I am so thrown off by the time change. (Yes even after a week, I am not adjusted.) Hope all is well with you lovelies. I will be sharing my midterm artwork this week for sure.

Weekend Ready!

Happy Friday ya'll! I have come to a conclusion that I must love shopping at Target. I have so many things from that place. Its crazy. In other news, today is my dearest, bestest friend in the whole wide world's birthday! I would like to shout HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a friend who is like the sister I never had growing up. She is very near and dear to my heart. After all these years of friendship, through good and bad times, she's always had my back. Back when I had no where to turn and no one to turn to, she was always waiting for me with honesty, great advice and fun shopping ventures. She lets you be you! No changing needed. I wouldn't change her for the world! Happy Birfday!! :D

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

(P.S. I follow along on my Instagram to see what we are up to tonight and the Halloween Party tomorrow night! @cclemon88)

Storms Rolling

 Happy Sunday readers! It's a stormy, and cloudy Sunday. The weather is trying to cool down but not quite. I got this lovely floral smock dress this week at T.J. MAXX as a gift from my boyfriend's sister. It really gives off a vintage 60s vibe and I dig it! She's a sweetheart. It was a nice belated birthday present. I also picked up a leopard print high low dress with that T.J. MAXX gift card I got. I pair this dress with a sweet sequined peter pan collared shirt, periwinkle patch work tights and suede ankle boots. Also I finally am wearing those lovely cat eye frames gifted by Dan's mom. They really are growing on me.  I know it may not look it in this photo but I have not been feeling well and the weather really does not help. Hoping the start of this new week will bring better days.
