Now that Autumn has truly arrived, with the cooler weather and overcast skies, I have begun to embrace the warmer clothing styles in my small closet. This week, I am showcasing a taupe colored long-sleeve turtle neck sweater dress. I cinched the waist with a wide corset-style belt. I purchased this sweater dress at the Goodwill in Kitty Hawk, NC, during this past summer. It only cost me $4.99 (before tax, of course), but what a bargain, am I right? I would pair this dress with a pair of warm black riding boots for the daytime and then I would […]
Dress Form Outfit #41
With fall approaching, I’m starting to pull out my long-sleeve shirts and sweaters. This week’s dress form outfit, I pulled out my Sons of Anarchy shirt out of the dresser and paired it with a denim mini. I added a bit of flair with the black and white zebra belt. Because SOA is a motorcycle club, I had my husband pull out his Harley Davidson Sportster so I could model this dress form outfit with an actual motorcycle. [Sidebar: The Sportster was my anniversary present to him a couple of years ago… lucky him, right?] I also modeled this dress […]
The September Issue
Every year, millions of fashionistas (almost all women, and some men) wait patiently for Vogue magazine’s “September Issue”. This year was no different, with the industry’s “fashion Bible” touting “916 pages of spectacular fall fashion for all”! And of course I was one of those millions who purchased the September issue with a certain level of expectation that there would truly be a wide array of “fall fashion for all”, meaning fall fashion that anyone and everyone could afford. First let me say that the issue didn’t even begin until page 76, which showed the first “table of contents”. Yes, I’m saying […]
Dress Form Outfit #39
This week’s dress form outfit is casual and comfortable. I paired a charcoal gray pencil skirt with a light gray and silver tank top, and topped that tank top with a black short sleeve crocheted sweater. When I get ready to wear this outfit, I will pair it with my black Mossimo booties. The skirt was purchased online from Victoria’s Secret. The tank was purchased at the Forever 21 in Tampa, Fla., and the black crocheted sweater was purchased at the H&M in Sanford, Fla. Have a great day!
My Week in Pins… Nailed It!
In browsing Pinterest this week, I’ve been seeing some really cool nail polish colors and designs. So this week in pins, I decided to show off several different nail polish colors and styles that I’m really digging. These stylish nail colors can be worn for work and play! On a personal note, I’m currently wearing OPI Pink of Hearts 2012 – “You Glitter Be Good to Me” and “I Think in Pink”. Go to “The PolishAholic” to check out her review of the Pink of Hearts duo. I’m also a fan of OPI “I’m Not Really A Waitress” (red) and […]
