I debated with the idea of posting photos of my personal style for as long as I’ve been writing this site.. But after long deliberation..

I’ve decided to do it!

I am, as retail industry professionals call it, a cross shopper. I love contemporary fashion but often buy from fast fashion chains like Forever21 and H&M. If I am lucky and able to find a great deal on a high-end designer piece, as long as it’s season-less, it’s mine! I enjoy a great sale, I rarely buy anything outside of fast fashion, full price and I am constantly on the hunt for deal! I try to by items that will hang in my closet and be worn for years. I will keep you updated on my latest fab finds!

Alas… My first look…

Off to work: Brightening greys with hot Pink!

I work in a casual office, jeans & tees are the standard look, but I like to dress up sometimes. I do not follow one style or trend nor do I follow celebrity style or tends, because they are not real. Most celebrities have a team of professionals working to create their persona and style.

I like to mix different ideas together. I love styling classic pieces with contemporary and trendy pieces.

Booties and Bracelet

Now I realize how hard these look photos are to create.. I appreciate all the other bloggers before me. You must have a dedicated buddy to be your photog in exchange for margaritas!! It takes a while to warm up to the camera and get the idea of obscene vanity out of your head!
