Hello! I hope everyone had a fun weekend. Since we are nearing Halloween, I thought it would be fun to do a look inspired by the character Carmen Sandiego.  What do you think?  Who or what are you going to be for Halloween?

Hello!  How are you?  Do you ever get bored and want to try something new? Try mixing something up completely the opposite of what you'd normally wear.  For example, you can try mixing two really unusual color tones together to see what you come up with.  Red and green are complete opposites, but somehow pairing these two just seemed to go together just right.  What do you think?  The real trick here is balancing these two colors with the right amount of black and this neutral pair of gray Paige denim.  

Do you own any vintage bags?  I am seriously obsessed with this black vintage bag.  The unique flap on this bag is so sharp and balances out the feminine ruffles in this outfit.  It's the perfect size to carry around as a clutch, but also as a shoulder bag because it has a hidden strap inside.  I always look for hidden straps on clutches to make it easier to carry for extended periods of time.  

How do you feel about ruffle collar blouses?  Ruffle collar blouses are my favorite kind of blouses next to bow collar blouses.  They are so feminine and add the perfect balance to a more structured blazer.  

What do you think about wearing colorful animal prints?  Yes or No?  I say "yes" to colorful animal print patterns.  You can never go wrong with brown, but I really like to mix it up and have some fun with olive, red, and blue animal prints.  It can take some time to get comfortable with the idea.  A lot of us would never be seen wearing colorful animal print patterns, but I think it shows confidence and a fun personality to the world.  They are bold pieces to wear, but can add a lot of interest to an otherwise very basic outfit.  

Hope you are having a great week:)

Stay Stylish!

How was everyone's Easter Weekend?  What did you do?  This weekend was fun.  It was  nice to get a chance to spend some time with my family and catch up with everyone.  We usually have potluck gatherings.  I always look forward to that because everyone cooks and makes all sorts of delicious food to eat.  

Today, I am wearing mint jeans and a cream sweater with taupe accents. I wanted to be comfortable this weekend, but I usually bring at least half of my life with me in my handbag haha, so sometimes I like to bring a bigger tote with me if I am going to be gone for an extended period of time.  Since mint is in, I thought I'd give these jeans from Abercrombie and Fitch a try.  Really loving this bag I bought from Anne Klein.  I have so many of their purses because they are so classically beautiful and feminine.  Anne Klein really knows how to accent a handbag perfectly with these nice gold details and fringe tassels.  This bag is so versatile.  It can be used as a work bag or a everyday bag.  This color is nice too because it can go with just about anything.  It's actually perfect for Spring!  

Have you bought anything in Mint yet?
