Bad Ass!

Hey all...

It's been a bit over a week & I haven't posted anything... bad blogger... I've really wanted to but just haven't. It shouldn't ever be more than a week- forgive me?

For some reason, I'm loving black clothes right now. Anything with studs that's black is even better. Rhianna has really made a huge impact on making my inner rockstar coming out.

This bustier is hot- really hot. The insets are lace, which channels my inner Appolonia. It looks a bit like a dress and those studs!!! Asos.com- $63.83. This says "sexy bad ass" with

Photobucket
... some leggings. "Liquid leggings" are the best in leggings. I know some folks wish they'd go away but I thank the fashion gods every time I put some on. Ones with a bit of shine or look leathery can class up a look real fast as long as you match it with something tasteful. I think they work well with this bustier- Arden B. for $28.

An ankle boot works well with everything. "Revolvor" by Steve Madden for $94.98 makes nice with this look. The peep toe and dramatic ankle instep make these just enough but not too much matched up with the bustier. They look very similar to a Marc by Marc Jacobs bootie, but for about $500 less. Grab some silver set rhinestone studs- you're good!

You can be a rockstar & still be a classy lady. Look at what I found-

OOOH! Now look at the back-

I adore Asos.com. You can find all kinds of designer things without the wallet-busting prices. It looks very Indian influenced but still smells like a sexy rockstar. The open back & arms are so, so sultry. There are a few different nights this dress would be great. Not bad for $173.25-

I'm torn... which shoe?
Photobucket
I really like this bootie slash pump. Its by Madison Harding at Nordstrom online & in-store. This shoe gives the dress a little extra umph... or I can always grab these...
Photobucket
You can never go wrong with Louboutin...

I think I like this...
Photobucket
I'm telling you- Asos.com- you can't go wrong. "Lipsy" studded dress- $118.54. There's something so bad ass but sweet about this dress. You need a motorcycle & a good red lipstick for this.

I'm a fan of booties with girly dresses...
Photobucket
More Steve Madden. I don't care what anyone says, on a smart budget, you can't go wrong with Steve Madden. Yes they are the knock of kings however you can get a great pair of shoes that can shut down the side walk, pay your rent & still have a tip for the valet. With that dress, these boots with the larger studs work. "Cintia", $159.95. This is the boot you could grab the leggings from above, a white v-neck tee & a black leather jacket. All you'll need is a pair of mirrored avaitors & you're ready!

Obey the speed limit!

Time to shop!!!

Hey hey! I think I buy myself something daily. Nail polish, french fries, earrings... something. Never anything that breaks the bank- lately things to turn up my wardrobe & sexy factor. Here's another event I have to hit & buy some fly drag (cute clothes... lol)

Photobucket

If you're in LA this Saturday, October 17th, swing through. There's gonna be some great indie designers & lots pf pampering. Its always nice when you can get massaged & take home something to put on your nice, relaxed body. Get the car washed in the morning, hit the sale in the afternoon... I have your whole day planned out!

Crisp Air...

Yes it's Fall.. its cold... kinda. Its time to grab a jacket and wear pants, especially when hitting the streets at night. I don't believe in looking homely & Snugi-chic outdoors just because its cold. There's a way to be fly & warm...

Photobucket
Yellow is a warm, feel-good color. This off the shoulder cashmere from Victorias Secret looks good & is super soft. For $38, it will get a lot of wear & look great under a coat.

With...

Photobucket
These rainbow harem pants by Shopnastygal.com. I love the metallic stripes of assorted colors, including yellow- vintage clothes are the best! $138- I need them! With that sweater and some hot shoes, I'm ready for the leaves. I'll walk through them in these...

Photobucket
Asos.com- sexy! I usually dislike black shoes but there's something about these. The cutouts & the zipper up the back make them hot- $180.55.

Fall is 3 months long... You gotta have a jacket...
Photobucket
I fell in love with a new site- Shopnastygal.com. They had this "Aces High" vintage bomber jacket.
Look at the back-
Photobucket
I love sequins so this is perfect! $298.00- there's only one on the site & I hope to snag it!

Pair it with a white v-neck shirt &
Photobucket
Gap, Always Skinny Jeans $59.50...

You can't have a good outfit without some bad ass shoes...
Photobucket
Ooooh dayum! These are on asos.com- Irregular Choice for $227.96. Look at that heel! They're suede so here in LA, they're perfect for Fall. You gotta sit somewhere in public with your feet up and let people see these boots!

Both looks are great for a pumpkin patch- Fall into it! (Tip your waitresses! I'll be here all night!)

The Finer Things...

Happy Monday! We are officially done with summer.. so much so, I caught a cold. BOOO! Even though my nose is plugged up, my taste is still working.

I know I've driven home how important it is to have a good pair of plain hoops & a couple bangles to your wardrobe. I left out something just as important. It's key to have something on your neck, especially something signature. Try this...

Photobucket

This is an amazing piece by Finer Things- I love this necklace! You can wear it with anything & do anything with it. The model has it on classy, evening wear-esque. This is the kind of piece you can even wear a cute tee, jeans & over-the-knee boots. I love how its made of things you'd never think of putting together-

Photobucket
The pink ribbon turns up the pretty, dainty aspect of the necklace. The prices are very pocket-friendly... these one of a kind pieces start at $75. Its very 'Melrose Place', 'Gossip Girl', 'Daddy's Girls' style- it won't be long before they start popping up on tv. Get yours now! Email Finer Things (website in progress, so stay tuned) at kkangaroodh226@yahoo.com

Back to my Theraflu... blog with you later...
