Nothing is going to stop me

What's stopping you? Nothing is going to stop me. I'm not sorry at all about my new attitude in life, I am not going to allow anyone to stop me from doing what I love. I absolutely am obsessed with the line by the original designers behind the once hot brand Juicy Couture. Sadly the brand hasn't done so well since these ladies left but happily they started a new line and I love it way more than I ever loved Juicy. Pam & Gela is a kick ass brand, I love their bad ass attitudes and their I don't give a f@*k style. They are bold, creative and so inspiring. Since I first laid eyes on their first designs of graphic tees I was in love. I am obsessed with tees and tanks, their line is everything I love about graphic tees and forget it their pants, from sweats and the classic Juicy style velour pants, to distressed sweats and sweaters, amazing little black dresses and animal print pieces I love it all. I wish I could hit that huge Powerball jackpot right now because I would buy up whatever pieces I haven't found on eBay or sale on their site and rock their pieces daily. 

This lip graphic tee is hot paired with leather leggings since soon I won't be able to wear them here in Florida, we have a cool front currently so they worked. I added a pair of over the knee black boots and my leather jacket for my finished look. 

Everything about this tee screams me. I love the darker cuffed sleeve style tee/tank I ordered a large and wish now I had gone with a medium but I have all sizes from P-L in their tops and they all fit me just some are over sized and others fitted. I love them all either way. These leggings I got off eBay for under $8 and they rock. They are high waisted and so soft for a faux leather. They really look great on, I went with a XL because they are Asian sized and usually run smaller but could have honestly ordered a large. They are a little longer but I plan to hem them one of these days to wear with heels for now they work amazing with boots. 

My jewelry is simple today, I haven't taken off my Pandora feather pendant really except to shower. I love it and my bracelets are leather wraps one is from Good Works and is a positive affirmation wrap. They have some amazing bracelets this was my first but have several now. The other was a gift from Pam over at The Ehler's company, passion for fashion on eBay. The link to her eBay store is in my favorite shops and if you mention my blog after bidding or when you purchase item with buy it now she will give you a 20% discount. Be sure to check out her fabulous site she has a ton of amazing artisan made pieces and does a lot to support talented creative people which I love. 

Next up is my Pam & Gela What's stopping you tee. It's on a dark gray style tank with glittery gold writing. Paired it with my Tara Lynn's boutique camouflage pencil skirt and a necklace from Forever21. Bracelets are all Alex and Ani.

Wish I didn't crop out my black lace up heels. I got a pair from Forever21 because I am loving the lace up flats I had and really need a pair of heels. I will include a photo below of the heels along with a link below to where you can purchase a pair also.

Can't wait have so many exciting new fashion pieces arriving daily and a few articles on loan for my shoot next weekend. I am going to be photographing finally some non selfie style photos for the blog and my social media accounts, I can't wait to share. Going to do my hair and makeup then have real photos taken so you can see the entire outfit along with my face and hair. I will trying my best to do one shoot a month collabing with local photographers and make up artists, then my talented hair lady as well. When I can't schedule these shoots I will set up my camera on my tripod and take photos so that every month I have some styled photos for my feature articles. 

I have The Light Blonde tees coming up as a Valentine's Day and anti social media bullying feature, Spell and the Gypsy collective and some Free people pieces for a bohemian spring look just in time for festival season and then some Alice and Olivia goodies. I will also be featuring Silver Jeans and some other great graphic tees by some other smaller designers and shops. Excited to have so many collabs set up and happy to see how many designers and shops are excited to work with me. My blog really had grown so much each year and I had my most successful year since 2012 this last year so I am really thankful and proud. 

I will be working on more beauty, hair, makeup and skincare product features. Health and fitness posts like I did awhile back then my normal what's hot now for fashion posts where I find popular trends and show you similar looks for less. I will always have those features since bargain shopping and dressing on a budget are something I am passionate about. 

Enjoy my Pam & Gela tops and before I forget let me share my off the shoulder Love Spent midnight blue sweatshirt with silver foil and black writing paired with the black Betsee joggers also by Pam & Gela. I just won a hot distressed sweatshirt that matches my gray pair I have with cropped ankles and zippers. Trust me you will be seeing a lot of new Pam & Gela stuff in the next couple weeks especially if its cold because I have a few sweaters and sweatshirts I haven't shared yet. Excited to share them and many other styles. 

Happy shopping and bargain hunting my friends. Love to all XoXo. 

A few photos from my weekend.

Walking the boardwalk on Hollywood beach, before dinner.

Amazing food from The Taco Shack. 

Sun going down and Palm Trees along the boardwalk. 

A Florida snowman, or sandman. 

And we end it all without traditional frozen custard, I get mine with orange sherbet on the bottom. Reminds me of my daddy. Hope you had a lovely weekend also. I know I have survived the first two days of the week and it's almost mid week, we have a long weekend again and can't wait... 

Hope the beach warms you up if there is snow in your area. Warm wishes and kisses always

From Leather to Lace

Today my post is sharing two looks I wore the passed two days, one is a more rock n roll vibe look with leather and studs and then my other look doesn't have any lace but it's the opposite extreme of the leather look. I decided today to go with a classy Audrey inspired flared full mid length skirt and cropped heart print sweater with heals. My heals I borrowed from my daughter and they are super cute with an ankle strap, gold buckle and simple strap across the toes. 

My lace look if you want to call it that. Both the top and bottom are from Forever 21. The skirt was under $25 and the top was $17. 

The shoes are from Love Culture and cost under $30. Necklaces are by Juicy Couture, one is a blinged out lock the other a key. 

              

The strongest actions for a woman is to love herself, be herself, and shine amongst those who never believed she could. She builds others up because she knows what it is like to be torn down. She never judges others because she has never walked a day in their shoes and knows the struggles she has had to endure all while being judged by others. She doesn't compete with others because she only wants to be a better version of herself not someone she doesn't know, because just because someone seems to have it together on the outside she knows things are not always what they seem. She treats others with kindness, because she was raised to treat people the way she wants to be treated. She is unique, strong, confident and beautiful. 

Something I wrote with a combo of quotes and inspirational pieces I love. I am myself and I love myself. I don't judge or compete and especially don't copy. 

      My rocker look I wore some fabulous faux leather, high waisted leggings I found on eBay for under $6 last week paired with this fabulous sheer studded top I got awhile back from Kohls by Rock and Republic. 

It was raining when I took these shots and got a huge rain drop on the front of my top which can be seen slightly on the left front. Didn't notice till after I looked over all the photos. 

     My necklace and bracelet is also by Rock and Republic from Kohls and were clearance finds a few years back. The top was missing a few studs but had some in a little bag with the tag so I got it and sewed the replacement ones on myself. I got it for 75% off so you can't beat that. Then the jewelry was also clearance because the necklace was part of a set and only had one then the bracelet was stretched out but I fixed that also just buy clipping then tying the elastic pieces tighter. Sometimes it pays to check for damaged or open items because you can save a lot. I don't mind fixing something if the price is good. 

    Last thing I left out from my look are my vintage thrift store find Frye boots. They are in amazing shape, I have had them almost a decade and they had to be close to 5-10 years old when I got them. They are very 80's looking but then again I don't know for sure how old they really are. They looked new when I got them 8-9 years ago. I paid under $30 for them. 

   I hope you enjoyed my looks. The top outfit you can find the pieces still cause they are recent buys, the Juicy jewelry is a few years old but they always have cute similar styles every year. The bottom outfit the top and jewelry are old along with the boots but the leggings I will add a link for the shop I got mine from and also Walmart had some cute leather leggings in store. 

    Have a great week and excited to share some other cute styles this week. Have some amazing motto leggings in olive and black with ribbed leg patch I found on eBay, some rust color Rag and Bone jeans, lots of Pam&Gela tees and tanks, more cute skirts and some other pieces I have not shared yet this season. I planned to shoot some looks for my blog but got rained out over the weekend. We have had the worst gloomy rainy days since last week, so bad areas have flooding and it ruined my plans but had all my outfits laid out and accessorized so I plan to wear most of them this week to share either way. I really want to get some good full length non selfie style photos for my blog but for now I hope the selfies are good for everyone. I do my best to get in as much as I can. Luckily I have long arms and I love my new iPhone 6S plus, I got the rose gold and love it. 

     Happy holiday shopping and style hunting. Have a great week ❤️ Xoxo
