MY STYLE FIX: FLATS IN THE SPRING

If you follow me on Instagram @ClosetFix or Facebook you already saw the pictures and you're aware that Mother Nature felt generous and bestowed upon the East Coast the spring that we've been missing.

Perhaps to quiet our bitching and moaning, and incessant begging for a warm up, she opted to throw us a bone and send some this way.  

Maybe it was the tears of grown men that prompted Mother Nature's change of heart to allow spring and happiness back into our lives.

Either way, we were all grateful for the turn of events this weekend and took to the streets in droves to witness this miracle.

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your day<3

MY STYLE FIX: FLORALS & STRIPES

After exercising the judgment of a gnat by wearing this skirt in a blizzard, I redeemed myself and wore it during appropriate weather. 

I must admit, the smiles of approval and looks of admiration was in stark contrast to the disapproving stares I received a few weeks ago. 

Suddenly with the arrival of Spring, I'm a pillar of the community, and not the prostitution whore the stares suggested just a season ago.

Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: UTILITY VEST & LAYERS

Right now, while I still can, I'm having fun with layers before it gets hot as balls and nudity is the only Closet Fix that would suffice.  

A few days ago the weather warmed up a bit and I was able to lose the jacket, but not enough to pull out the midriff baring tops just yet.

Clearly, the gradual warm up is nothing but the mercy of Sweet Baby Jesus for those of us who're still shamefully sporting a one pack. 

Thankfully, the inappropriately cool spring weather has given me a reprise, and more time to right this jelly belly that's oh so wrong.

Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: PEPLUM AND FLORALS

Perhaps the shortage of flowers on the East Coast at the moment has incited my current love affair with floral print this season.

I mean, at this point, compared to the lush greenery that was present this time last year, it's practically a barren wasteland. 

There's barely any signs of life other than the chirping birds who flew all this way and now will certainly starve to death on account of there's no flowers for them to suck, to eat, to live.

Luckily, my fate isn't as dire, and I can always bring sand to the beach, albeit a garden, but you get the point.  

Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: DENIM MINI & BLAZER

 Based on the outfit I posted here, I recently won a personal styling session with amazing designer +Rebecca Minkoff, which is beyond a miracle, as I've never really won anything, let alone something so major, the free refill that one time at Burger King notwithstanding.   

My initial elation was quickly replaced by nausea and relentless bubble guts at the thought of finding something to wear that would be halfway decent and not a total embarrassment to my entire life. 

After all, +Rebecca Minkoff is one of the most talented designers out there as her collections always exude and capture that chic, effortlessly cool edgy style that we all strive for.
So, after much consideration easily bordering on rumination, I stayed true to my style and opted to wear t-shirt and jeans albeit of the miniskirt variety. 

Have a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: DENIM JACKET & FUR

So, I got dressed feeling half way descent until the BF in a very dejected, dare I say disappointed tone asked if I was going to wear those shoes again.

After I picked up what was left of my self esteem, I managed to muster up my most hateful side-eye, in lieu of the neck chop that I should've doled out in light of such an implicit criticism. 

Now, I understand that as the photographer he may want a little variety, especially when truth be told, he would much rather spend his time scratching than watching me do a bad impersonation of a supermodel. 

I get it. Certainly the variety would at best distract from my forced smiles and the awkward poses. However, after all this time, I thought he would be used to my predilection to re-work and re-wear my favorite pieces.    

Besides, if my repetition offends, he can always resort to donations of the monetary kind. That would certainly guarantee a few more pieces in the rotation. 

Enjoy your weekend! Thanks for dropping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: SPRING MINTY SEQUINS

The weather is finally warming up, and in a few short weeks I'll be able to wear my miniskirts without being subjected to the disapproving side-eye of strangers. 

 Undoubtedly, those people were just concerned about my health, and not flabbergasted by the idea that anyone with commonsense would dare brave the elements in anything other than a snowsuit. 

Almost behind me are those days of the soul-piercing stares, which generally needed no words, as the "where the hell are your pants" came across loud and clear. 

In a matter of weeks, bare legs and mini skirts will be the norm, and I can roam the streets freely with my hem raised high. 

Enjoy your day! Thanks for dropping by<3
