Bleach and a Blouse

My philosophy on shopping is buy what you want regardless of how much it didn't cost. That means if I find a shirt in Walmart with plenty of style potential, its going in the cart with the Comet, mouthwash and oven cleaner. Now keep in mind there are guidelines and bylaws to this rule (that's another post)- now onto today's suggestions!

Try this sweatshirt- you can make it sexy with a belt but for this look, it might be over kill. Its an American Apparel sweatshirt. I love AA but sometimes they're kinda pricey. HOWEVER (you'll learn that's one of my favorite words) I know where the outlet is!



That with these- $4.50 at Forever 21



These boots at cutseyshoes.com- $35 and they're suede!



Then a few bracelets- the more, the better! The charm bracelet I found at delias.com, the other is at girlprops.com




I'm all about accessories. Bangles are always a win-win and necklaces (long or short) make any regular, boring outfit pop. Imagine the next look with this long pendant necklace. Buy a really clingy white shirt, maybe with a v-neck or a scoop neckline. Grab your skinny jeans and now the finishing touches:


These were at cutseyshoes.com too- and they're less than $40 bucks!

Here's my favorite part! I tried this on at Girl Props in NYC- it's really hot and bigger than it looks in the picture.



Wrap the look up with some ghetto gold, thin bracelets- like ones from the beauty supply for like $2.00 a piece- lol.

So I think I started something yesterday. I posted Nneka's bags. She's an indie designer getting her handbag on. She manufactures her line with her own hands and I'm sure its gonna blow up very, very soon. I found another hot line- Gordon Gartrelle (yes, like Theo- lol) that has some t-shirts with sophistication potential when worn with some fly stuff.



I'm mailing the car insurance off tomorrow so shopping resumes Saturday :)
