HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays!!! I love to eat more than anything!! I am so thankful for SO much, but more than anything, I am blessed and thankful to have my family and my beautiful daughter!!

Sooo, my sisters and I usually turn Thanksgiving and Christmas into a fashion show!! A COMPETITIVE one at that!! Every year someone goes, "I am not dressing up this year", but shows up FIERCE!! Since you eat so much on this day, I am suggesting something comfortable, yet stylish.  Try Forever 21's, Stretchy Ankle leggings for only 5.50! I love them!!


 Leggings are great because they stretch and will adjust to all the servings you consume of that sweet potatoe pie!!  Choose a cute top that's not too long or too short, but the perfect length, and add a scarf for your statement piece.Find this scarf at Forever 21 for 12.90.  To jazz the outfit up a bit, throw on a boyfriend blazer and roll the sleeves up some.  Add some accessories; earrings, a bracelet or just a few, ring, a cute bag, and your hater blockers (shades)!!!.  Wear some flat boots to give you that extra comfort to enjoy your turkey!! Find the boots below at Charlotterusse.com for 39.99!!  Happy living:)

We HEART Scarves!!!

Adding a scarf to your outfit is a quick and easy way to jazz it up! Scarves are fun because they add color and texture. You can do a scarf with a simple tee shirt and jeans. Choose a great pair of heels, boots or even flats to add the finishing touch! Here are a couple ways you can tie your scarf to make that bold statement:

"WHERE THEY DO DAT AT!!!"


LADY GAGA 23 year old singer was promoting her second album, The Fame Monster, at a Best Buy in West Hollywood by signing autographs and even buying her fans Papa John's pizza!! But her outfit, like always, disturbed me!! WHERE THEY DO DAT AT!!

I HEART her music and love her in Beyonce's new video "video phone", mainly because I could actually see her face and her shape!! She's gorgeous!! But of course, I was disturbed AGAIN, by her AMA's performance Sunday night!! Scary!! I think J-Lo fell (yes, Jenny from the Block had a minor mishap during her performance) because of all that glass Lady Gaga broke up during her performance (who cleaned that up)!! But that's her style and she is not scared to do the dang thang, and I LOVE her for that!! So thanks Lady Gaga for keeping it GANGSTA!?!?!

Dream Big Ladies!! Dream BIG!!


Christian Louboutin
Okay, I know these shoes are BEYOND pricey, but they are SUPER cute!!! Love Christian Louboutin and his signature red mark on the heels!! I don't own a pair... yet-- I got to upgrade my salary and pick up some pecans (to sell them)first!!

Booties, Booties, Booties- Booties ROCKing everywhere!!





I am IN love with Booties!! You Must have a pair for the fall/winter! They are great with leggings, skinny jeans and even a cute dress!! Aldo has the cutest booties!! They are a little pricey, but a great investment. I have the Desano for $110.00 from Aldo, shown above at the bottom left. You will also see a pic with me in them, right above them!! Next to the Desano's on the right are the Seace for $140 at Aldo!! Definitely a splurge, but a great investment!! For that extra spunk or just for fun, add jewelry to your booties by throwing on a necklace!! Check out your local Aldo stores or Aldo-diy.com for ideas!! A FAB find are the booties on the top right. They are Ashley suede booties, by l.e.i for only $18.00 (originally 25.00) at Walmart stores or Walmart.com!!! What a steal!!!

3 Must Haves for Your Wardrobe!!





Nail color!!! Color, color, and more color!! Use bold and fun colors to add that pop to your outfit. Don't be afraid to try yellows, pinks, and purples!! My FAVorite nail polish is Nicole, by OPI!! Love IT!! Try it in "Star of the Party"...Find it at your Target and Walmart stores for under $8.00!

It's All about the Accessories!!
Take a dull outfit and make it fun and flirty by adding LOTS of jewelry!! Don't be afraid to mix metals with your bracelets and your necklaces (silver, gold, and even pearls) because it's the new IT thing to do, and it looks absolutely HOT!! A nice bold ring is HOT as well!! Find the bracelets above at Forever 21 for $5.80! Their accessories are very cheap and fashionable!!

An over sized bag makes a bold statement, at least I think!!
I totally heart over sized bags!! I think it makes a statement when you enter a room, especially if it's Fabulous!! And there is nothing like a fabulous CHEAP bag!! A few top name designers are now doing lines for target such as Isaac Mizrahi (one of my FAVorites) Hollywood Intuition, and NY 9 Handbags by Anna Sui, to name a few! The handbag shown is by Xhilaration at Target for only $19.99!! Tip: To add Spunk to a simple bag, simply add a cute scarf and tie around the handle or a nice necklace to drape on the bag!!

By adding these 3 simple things, nail color, LOTS of accessories (don't be afraid to mix metals), and a statement bag, I guarantee it will transform your simple outfit for the office, lunch with Co-workers, or HAPPY HOUR with your girls and bring out that Wow Factor that I SO believe EVERY women has!! Happy living :)
