Look to Recreate...Sequins in the Daytime!

I have a minor girl crush on Tami over at The Style Sample. I'm not too proud to admit it :)

She has such an amazing ability to put things together in a way I wouldn't think of.

I have pieces like the outfit below in my closet, but would never think to put it together like this.

I'm going to have to go home and try this on to see if I can pull it off...but some of my blog readers (my friends in my head) definitely can!

Outfit of the Night

I was invited to the end of the year football banquet at work. It wasn't semi or anything (there were people in jeans and hoodies there...yes, jeans and hoodies).

I was definitely in "high cotton" that night. Decided to rep my school with an eggplant cowl neck sweater dress...well, you'll see the rest if you keep scrolling.

Dress: Plato's Closet
Necklace/Earrings: Bubu "Chulo" Extraordinary Fashion Jewelry (link here)
Polish: Something (forgot name) by Nicole for OPI
Shoes: Shoe Carnival (2+ years ago)

I See Myself As...

I see myself as...

smart, loyal, moody, helpful, creative, stubborn, passionate, classic, a lady, teachable, inquisitive.

I submitted this to the Natural Belle blog. She is doing a powerful self-portrait series on how we see ourselves. It teaches about love and self-acceptance. If you'd like to participate, email her at naturalbelle1983@gmail.com. You can also look at the self portraits by reading her blog here.

Thanks Tamara!!! Sweet Makeup Look....

My makeup muse Tamara at The Collective Musings of Tamara, posted this pretty, precious look of Kelly Rowland. Kelly may not be doing much musically, but she is killin' it style wise.
