MY STYLE FIX: OVERSIZED DENIM VEST

Happy Hump Day! In this life, there's two times a woman should never wear white, and unless Mother Nature visited earlier than usual this month, I managed to avoid that bloody disaster.  
Unfortunately, I lost my mind, and against all rhyme and reason, I decided to wear white on the subway. Yeah...the same subway with the gonorrhea seats(see previous post), mystery odors that are very reminiscent of rotting flesh, and wet spots that one can only hope is just water.     
Even with knowing all that awaited me, I still wore the dress because of course in my mind, after scanning the millions of dresses in my closet,I had nothing to wear, and that one frock, out of all the dresses, was the only cute thing I had. The only one. 
Well, within less than a few minutes of boarding the train, I somehow managed to acquire a mystery stain right in the the front of my white dress, which clearly mortified me based on it's proximity to my who-who. I don't know what was in that substance, but I digress.
I was so panicked because I was on my way to a fashion event where I was quite sure a stained dress would not have been viewed as avant-garde.
But, as luck would have it, in Midtown, the streets are lined with so many clothing stores that as soon as I existed the subway I ran into the first store, headed straight for the sales rack, and selected this sequence dress and denim vest to replace my epic failure.
I proceeded to have my Clark Kent moment in the dressing room, and managed to show up to the event, skillfully rubbing shoulders with the likes of VH1's "Love & Hip Hop" star EmilyB as if nothing happened. 
Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX

SUNDAY HIKE: BOYFRIEND SHORTS & HOODIE
Happy Monday!! I don't know about you, but I got a lot of R&R this weekend!I'm not so sure if it was well deserved though.I tend to luxuriate more often than not, but before you start going on and on about how lazy and shiftless I am, you have to realize that the rest is needed. It's so necessary! Trust me, the people around me reap the benefits of my perpetual relaxed state more so than I do. Let's just say without it babies will be pinched, children will cry, and all others will cower. Yeah, it's that serious, and no one is exempt as you can see. Did I not mention that babies WILL get pinched?! It's that crying thing, I can't... 
So, to prevent mass casualties, I like to unwind a lot. It helps. One of my favorite things to do to maintain my chi is hiking. Yesterday, I whipped out one of my weekend go to staples, my converse, and paired them with super comfy pieces, boyfriend denim shorts, white tee, and a sequins hoodie. Heels hardly ever touch my feet Friday-Sunday. For me, It's all about relaxing on the weekends, and heels especially those 4 inches and up, torture devices, that seem better suited for Chinese foot binding, do not exist in my world on the weekend.  
Now on the weekdays, I punish myself just like you do, (SMH-real fast). The higher the better. The more pain, I'm in! If I can barely walk in them, Perfect. As long as the heel gives me life, this honey badger don't care, and I know you know exactly what I'm talking about. You're probably wearing some death traps right now shaking your head real fast at the drama you're putting yourself through. And, the sad part is, these things are mutually exclusive! The best heels always seem to hurt.
Well, I put my foot down (pun intended)on the weekends, and just say no. That way, I'm free to enjoy the moment without the constant mind numbing pain radiating from the place where my foot is supposed to be. I'm free to take normal strides, and dare I say, run. Yes, wipe that shocked look off your face. You heard me correctly, running is possible! I mean, I don't go that far, but I could if I wanted to. 
It's so liberating and freeing that I recommend that you try it. Take a day off from the heels preferably on the weekends when you're not vying for the attention of "BOB" in the cubicle next to you. He's broke, but he's really into heels. Otherwise, pick a day or two, and be nice to yourself. No pain. Just the pleasure created in the moment. 
It's so worth! Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3
