Weekly Obsession- The Lucite

Dear Diary,
  

My weekly obsession? Lucite clutches. Chanel does no wrong when it comes to their accessories. I was so in love when I set my eyes on this PVC clutch that could damn near pay my rent for 4 months! In case you are wondering what the exact price is… $6,595.  
I did a little research and discovered some options were reasonably tagged.

                                                     Go Jane $44

                                                            Kotur Ltd $395

                                       Go Jane $52

                                                        ShopAnthom $120

                  

                                            

Seeing Blue

Dear Diary,

One of the gifts my sister got me for my birthday was this badass faux leather skater skirt from the new savvy department at Nordstrom.  I was itching to create a post, as soon as I opened the parcel.  You would be obsessing too if your favorite color is blue. I mean come on, look at it… it’s gorgeous!!!!

 Look 1
 I went for a minimal approach with my t-strap mid heel pumps, and a silver cuff. Something you can wear out to a nice lunch , without having to look too casual.

PRADA blouse, NORDSTROM skirt, ZARA pumps, CUFF (from a street vendor in Ghana).

 Look 2
My approach to a night time look? Pull out all the statement jewelry. Wrist candy, rings with shimmer, and a bib necklace. to give your outfit more character .

T.G.I.F.

Dear Diary,

 I can’t get enough of this Rita Ora song, especially in the “2 Bears Remix”.  It’s a great way to let your hair down, and prepare for any festivities you may have lined up for the weekend!

PRABAL GURUNG TUNIC

Dear Diary,

My Prabal Gurung for Target pieces have been  dying to be worn ever since I purchased them five months ago.  I can’t believe they have been sitting in my closet for this long.  Today’s post is on one of my faves  from the collection… the tunic. I love how easy breezy it is, with the multi-color splash.  It allows me to experiment with colored shoes of my choice.

 URBAN OUTFITTERS  denim/leather jacket, PRABAL GURUNG for TARGET tunic dress, ZARA platform heels, and I bought the doggy brooch at a flea market in London.

BIRTHDAY FIT

Dear Diary,

My birthday was last month, and the highlight of my day was putting on this panelled dress with the mesh cut back by Antipodium . I fell in love with it, as soon as I laid eyes on it. The price was a little out of my range at the time. Two days before my birthday, this baby went on SALE…and I’m talking double markdown! Dreams do come true.

ANTIPODIUM pixel dress, BOUTIQUE 9 Orra pumps, LOVE CULTURE earrings (similar here), SEPHORA rouge lipstick.

R.I.T Grad

Dear Diary,

 My best friend graduated from Rochester Institute Of Technology, located Upstate New York. After five long years of hard work and determination, he finally made it to the finish line. I am extremely proud of how far he has come, and it was only right for me to show my support my being at the ceremony.

                                               ZARA blazer, tank, pants, and loafers, ASOS clutch.

NEW DO: KINKY BRAIDS

Dear Diary,

This post has been long overdue *covers face*.  It has been a month since I have been spotting the auburn braided look, and you have probably seen this if you follow me on  INSTAGRAM . I figured I’d switch it up for a bit. My mini fro was getting kinda boring. What do y’all think?

NIKE DUNK SKY HIGH "CITY" PACK

Dear Diary,

With all of Fashion Week’s hustle and bustle, Nike decided to pay homage to Paris, New York, Milan, Tokyo, and London , with their sky hi dunk wedges. The sneaker is  made with materials to match each city’s unique style. Ash and Isabel Marant may have to take a temporary back seat, because these sneakers are giving me life!

Saturday Funday

Dear Diary,

Justin Timberlake’s 20/20 Experience is everything!! I love every single song on this album, but since the weekend is here, I’m dedicating one of my favorite party songs to you. Lets call our friends up, get dressed and have some major weekend fun! If you are looking for me, I shall be working my 9-5. Not to worry, you can trust Mr. J.T. to get me through the day! lol

Easter Egg

Dear Diary,

 It’s Easter Sunday, and my bright Diane von Furstenberg came out to play. I purchased this number last summer, and I had nowhere to wear it to. The color reminded me of an easter egg, so it just felt right when I put it on for church lol.
Moving on to how the rest of my day played out… I stuffed my face with way too much food, and fell asleep. The End. How did you spend your Easter?

VINCE sweater , DIANE von FURSTENBERG aurora dress, ASOS clutch (seen here an here), ZARA ankle strap pumps.
