PILGRIM'S PROGRESS

There will be days when your closet is just not enough! 

(Reason #144 to keep a significant other)

 Husband's button down shirt-- Brooks Brothers

Fendi sunglasses; should probably give these a rest at some point since my make up is starting to paint the white frames brown. This brings me to my next point, is there a make up company that makes color stay powder that actually works? I am not sure why Maybeline is using up research money for their color stay lipstick when color stay powder is not yet the norm in the beauty market. A definite egg before the chicken scenario if you ask me.  I know boyfriends and husbands of anyone with a little color pigmentation in their skin will be very grateful if color stay powder became the norm.  Think of all the dry cleaning bills one can avoid?? Just saying...

Salvatore Ferragamo sandals; Zara maxi skirt

Missoni belt; turtle ring stolen from sister

Anyway, this outfit reminded me of a modern day Pilgrim-- due to global warming, one cannot possibly button up their shirt all the way like they did in the 18th century. This is something I am sure the good Lord understands and is on board with.
Until next time
XOXO

WORKPLACE COMMANDMENT

Gilded Sunday: Olympic tales

Going for the medals.  Mama, I won with gold:)

 Random pics from my brother's wedding this weekend.  More to come if and when I gain permission from the bride.

Have a great week everyone!
XOXO

RED LOUNGE

 Vintage red dress. Actually with the exception of my necklace, everything I have on is vintage.  So I guess we can move on from talking about clothes to other things--

Does anyone get the fascination with Channing Tatum? This has been my conundrum for the last two weeks. Especially when I heard that the Marky Mark of our generation has been hanging out with Clooney in Italy. Yep... Channing is hanging out with late nineties dream boat turned award nominee favorite, Clooney. 

Shouldn't that privilege be left for up and coming actors that have a chance of winning an Oscar for best dramatic performance or for actresses that could also double as pageant winners?

I just hate when the world does not make sense. Anyway, back to clothes-- I had another non vintage item on: Dior belt
XOXO

Another Repeat!

I am not quite sure about you all, but I usually live in variations of the same outfit for about a month.  I was stuck in long silk dresses for the first part of the summer but got over it when I bought this jacket/blouse. You just cannot go wrong with fringe...

Roberto Cavalli top and jeans, Gucci sandals, vintage bag, ring from This N That, bracelet from Ylang Ylang.

On a side note, why is it that all the successful natural hair bloggers out on you tube have type 3 hair (ummm, use google to find out what that means.  There should already be a natural hair term page on wikepedia by now, don't you think )?  I need a blogger whose hair naturally resembles and feels like a brillo pad. Or as Lil Wayne calls it, Nigerian tough. Whatever that person's says, I will trust.
XOXO

REPEAT!!!!!

I'm really liking these diaper shorts.  Ancient men dressed in loin cloth were onto something...

Roberto Cavalli fringe top, Dolce and Gabbana shorts, Fendi color block sandals

Earrings from Buffalo Exchange (Dallas); glasses by Tom Ford

Seriously, I am always always picking out my afro! I now understand why a certain sector of society continuously flip their hair like that movement will help cool down global warming. Playing with one's hair just cannot be helped.

XOXO

THE DIAPER EFFECT

Don't let anyone tell you different, this look never flatters one's bottom half. But it sure is comfortable.

Missonni wrap top, Dolce and Gabbana shorts, bag from Housing Works in NYC (Chelsea).

Remember the trip I took to Round Rock Texas? Well, I snagged this necklace while I was there.

 Sweater from Nordstroms, ankle strap sandals by Salvatore Ferragamo

Have a good week everyone!
XOXO
