MY STYLE FIX: SPIKY WEDGE SNEAKERS

Happy Tuesday! I've never been a sneaks type of girl. I much prefer to punish myself in stilettos, pointy toe shoes, and heels up to there.  
Certainly they're comfortable and that should count for something. But, who needs comfort when you can have extra height, and a sick tush lift.  
I mean unless you're training for the Olympics or trying to escape from the likes of Michael Myers or some other deranged psycho killer, sneaks just don't make sense in normal everyday life.
At least that's what I used to think until some genius or mad scientist came up with a way to make sneaks that give you some serious height ala a wedge heel, all while maintaing the comforts of a sneak.
If you ask me it's like the eight wonder of the world. And that dude who hatched this little plan should be given the keys to cities because wedge heel sneakers are now my go to kicks for hanging out.
So, this weekend I paired mine with skinnies, a sweater, coat, scarf, and I easily went from place to place without even a peep from my pinky toe. Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: FALL WEDGE BOOT

Happy Monday! Now, I've never hid my disdain for cooler temperatures, but my affinity for a good tall, over the knee, please Sweet Baby Jesus, let it be a hooka boot, changes my mind every time, and totally have me looking forward to the big chill. 
I recently spotted these gorgeous Zara boots, and I fell hard, completely head over heels, no pun intended, for these lookers.
So much so that I pray to the Gods that this chill is here to stay, because I can really see myself rocking out in these everyday. 
Just after purchasing these beauties I considered wearing them right out the store, but it was much warmer that day, and that would've been a bit much, dare I say bat shit coo coo, but people do strange things in love, and I'm no different. 
Luckily, and I can't believe I'm even saying this, but luckily a few short days later, because that's how bipolar Mother Nature is, only a few short days later, the temperature plummeted, and I was able to rock out in my new boots. 
I paired them with a dress which I wore here over the Summer, and I layered it with a button down shirt. I felt like a kid on the first day of school. You remember how excited you were to wear all that new shit your mom bought you for your new school year? And on that glorious first day, you're so feeling yourself when you finally get to wear it. Well, that's my story.
Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: DENIM & HIGH LOW HEM

TGIF! Yesterday after stuffing my face, I decided to take Blog Pics, and ended up at a random church. The fact that I didn't combust into flames as soon as I stepped foot onto the grounds is a miracle in and of itself.
I mean, just look at what I was wearing. Denim cutoffs, paired with flats, and a stomach baring top. Sure it was appropriate for the weather, but for church, that's another story, which would've probably ended in some sort of public stoning had the congregation been around. 
At best, I'm pretty sure I would've gotten some soul piercing disapproving looks, along with a plethora of eye rolls from people like Mrs. So And So, who is likely the proud owner of assless chaps, which she only wears in the privacy of her own home. 
So, clearly she's better than me, who dared to expose myself in the House of the Lord, or at least steps away from it. Luckily, it was well after hours, and I was free to roam the grounds without judgement. 
Now, the eternal damnation that I may have incurred due to my infraction, may be impending, but I seriously doubt it. Sweet Baby Jesus sees me way more naked than I'm sure he would like to, and he has yet to rain down fire and brimstone on my head.  
Perhaps he's saving it for the grand finale, if you're picking up what I'm putting down, but I would like to think that he's not like that. You know, all wrath crazed and drunk on power. He's probably just happy that my heathen ass even made an appearance.
Have a kick ass weekend! Go Forth! Carpe Diem!

MY STYLE FIX: LEOPARD PRINT DRESS

Happy Thursday! So, the other day I attended an event for Naughty Monkey in NYC where they previewed their Fall collection. Right away, I decided to wear this leopard print dress, paired with gladiator pumps.
 Before I headed out I wanted a second opinion on my look so, I asked my BF who as well as my reluctant photographer also doubles as impromptu fashion expert/stylist. Trust me, he's just as thrilled about that role as you might think.
Now, instead of attempting to rip the dress off me, because you know, in my mind at best I looked like a sexy Wilma Flintstone. I wanna say Jane, but that bitch had no class, but I digress.  
Instead of trying to get it in, if you're picking up what I'm putting down, he damn near recoiled as if I was a rabid flea infested leopard.
The look on his face said it all, but the words "that's a whole lot of leopard print", brought it home, and I immediately had to pick my bruised ego up off the floor.
  I couldn't believe he didn't like it. So, of course, I spent the next 15 minutes with an attitude trying to convince him why this dress should've given him a stiff boner, because leopard print is everything. 
When that didn't work, I immediately discredited him, and threw the fact that on occasion he's the same person who without any threat to his life, will wear sandals with socks, outside. 
Needless to say I brushed off his comments, and wore the dress any way. 
Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: FLORAL & RUFFLES

It's Freaking Friday! I'm still excited from watching the Ah-Maz-Ing Gabby Douglas win the Gold medal in the gymnastic all around competition last night. She worked hard and earned that medal.  
The nerves it takes to do what they do all while wearing a one piece in front of the whole world is nothing short of inspiring. 
I wore this cropped top and maxi skirt the other day exposing my mid section, and with all the effort it took to hold my gut in, I could barely walk straight let alone do any kind of acrobatics.
Clearly, Gabby Douglas and the rest of the Fab Five are in the best shapes of their lives, and can confidently wear whatever they want. 
If I were in half the shape they're in, you couldn't stop me from doing my floor routine naked. I would be so proud. 
But, as is, I would be inclined to do the balance beam in a Burqa to hide all my deficiencies and protruding parts.   
Trust me, anything less would spark an international incident, and national outrage! 
Have a blast this weekend! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: FLAT FRONT SHORTS

I don't know if you've notice, but courtesy of some jackhole CEO, Fall clothing is in just about every store these days, like an ominous dark cloud, or like that creepy stalker ex-boyfriend who just won't take a hint. 
It's ridiculous because who the hell is thinking about Fall or anything remotely related to cold weather, especially if you're like me, and you're still waiting for the right time to wear some of your new Summer stuff, like this shorts that I paired with a tee, vest, and flats over the weekend.
Don't get me wrong, it's good to be prepared, but those people who buy all their gear a season ahead kinda weird me out. It just wreaks of goody two-shoes, teacher's pet type shit. What are they trying to prove?!
Sure Summer is zooming by, and we're already halfway into July, but hell, I'm still working on my bikini body, which fingers crossed, I can stay away from pizza, and I'll be able to debut it any day now.
Until then, I don't want to see any fucking sweaters, boots, or coats. For heaven's sake, let me have my delusion that Summer isn't almost over, and I still have all the time in the world to work it out. 
Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: LAYERED TANK DRESS

Happy Almost Friday Day! Yesterday was a holiday here in the U.S. Yeah, on a Wednesday, which means that I couldn't double fist it and get all shitfaced since it happened to be in the middle of the work week. 
Such a cruel joke, because I need to be at least three sheets to the wind, to get through a family barbecue without stabbing my Uncle who shall remain nameless, in his eye, because without fail he's gonna say something to piss me off.  
Shit, I damn near need to be sedated, just so I can skip the part where every other divorced relative ask me when I'm getting married, or why I haven't done it yet, as if they've forgotten that they still have a restraining order against the love of their life.
Worse yet, all the talk about getting me pregnant because OH MY GOD, time is running out, and I don't wanna wait too long. All while lamenting about needing a vacation from those bundles of joy.
It's bad enough having to listen to same people who adamantly advised/threatened me never to do the nasty in my life. And now, every time I see them, they become all melancholy at the thought of a large object not penetrating my kit kat and resulting in the latest addition to the clan. 
If I didn't know better, I'd think they'd hold me down while I was wearing this tank dress, and force my honey to copulate with me right there in front of the grill, it seemed that important to them. Thank goodness they're satisfied with just badgering me to death.
  Enjoy your day! Thanks for stopping by<3

MY STYLE FIX: A TRENDY POP OF NEON

Tuesday Booze Day! Yesterday I got the most ah-maz-ing news. Yours truly was featured on LuckyMagazine.com. I'm pretty sure I left my body when I found out.   
I mean it's theee Lucky Magazine after all. The very same Fashion Mag that I religiously buy every month and spent countless hours on the commode perusing through every little column and feature.
I couldn't believe it! It had to be some other big headed Personal Style Blogger, because the last time I checked I was neither rich enough to bribe the staff, and my jaw is not that strong.   
So, of course I checked and double-checked the write-up to see if I was reading correctly, or just simply had a psychotic break from reality, because clearly without those incentives, it just seemed impossible.  
To be selected by Lucky Magazine for anything other than hoarding, because I do save all my issues, and floor space is becoming increasingly scarce, may have been an oversight on their part. 
But, I'll more than take the feature which celebrates my personal style as oppose to the former which could incite a visit from the local Health Department. 
Enjoy Your Day! Happy Independence Day! Thanks for stopping by<3
