Leopard & Mint

Its the weekend! I wore this outfit to a boutique opening here this past week.  It really was a last

minute decision.  I have had this top for quite awhile and this was my first time wearing it!

I had and entire post dedicated to this top as well, sad I know lol.

I decided to try something different and rock this baby backwards, with the exposed zipper in the

front.

OOTD & Review: Riot Boutique

Its almost the weekend, too bad I have to work ugh!  Any who this past Sunday one of my friends turned 29 and we (Shayla & I) decided to take her to brunch at a nice restaurant.  Cafe 615 is located in downtown Mobile and offers a lovely atmosphere and the food was awesome too!  On Sundays they have a "make your own" mimosa and bloody Mary bar.  They also give out samples of their homemade bread pudding! OMG that bread pudding was so good!

Since it was Sunday and we were going to brunch, I wanted to be comfortable yet stylish...

Review

Riot Boutique is owned by the stylish Jenae Jones!  Her pieces are trendy, eclectic and fun! 

 She has styled many in  the entertainment and fashion business, such as Macy Gray and

rapper Lola Monroe.

 

Her site fierceriot.com offers tons of handmade pieces as well as purses and sunglasses! 

Her prices range are very inexpensive and budget friendly!

 

 

 

 

 I was sent these hand made black & gold earrings and spider ring.  The earrings were definitely a hit!

I got tons of compliments on them as well as people (Shayla & my sister) trying to steal them out of my ears. 

 I normally don't wear rings because my fingers are fat lol.  It is usually hard for me to find rings in my size. 

 What I liked about this ring was the expandable band as well as the design.  The actually size of the spider is

almost the size of a fifty cent piece.  It can be worn with a LBD  as a statement piece on its own!

 

Checkout her website Riot Boutique and instagram riotboutique



 

Thank you again Jenae for sending me these items for review!  The earrings will be in heavy rotation!

ATL Shawty

Good Morning! I just wanted to stop in with a quick post of one of my looks from this past weekend. This weekend I ventured out to Montgomery, AL and Atlanta, GA with my cousins. We started our weekend off by supporting my cousin in her photo shoot for her up and coming modeling company. After the shoot we left for Atlanta where we enjoyed plenty of good food and "entertainment" lol. Overall I had a great time and cant wait to go back in a few months!

OOTD: Dogs & Mosquitoes

Good Morning!  I'm in such a good mood!  Well I'm always in a good mood lol but I guess it has something to do with me going to see my baby Wale next weekend! If you follow me on Instagram you know that I have a huge crush on Wale lol.  I actually have full out word/pic fights with other women on IG (its all in fun though)!  They gon learn today I don't play about my boo so have several seats ladies lol.
I titled this dogs and mosquitoes for two very simple reasons, the mosquitoes were tagging my arse while I was taking this pictures and a pack of dogs strolled up on me!  My mama says I have sweet blood because the mosquitoes only bite me! Everybody can be outside but as soon as I sit down I get eaten alive ugh!  Now yall know I love animals but I'm scared of other people dogs especially if I don't know them (hell they have teeth and bite).  Well while snapping these pics a pack of dogs decided they wanted to be in the pictures too lol. They were friendly but I wasn't taking any chance I politely made my way back into my apt!

Enough rambling get into my OOTD...

Cheddars Part Deux

You read right I ventured out to Cheddars again this evening for a coworkers family memebers birthday.  Needless to say, we did not stay because the wait was 2 hours! Can you believe that?  We ending up at Outback the drink was amazing and I got a free sundae since my birthday was on the 5th.

Lets get into this outfit!  If you are following me on facebook, you may have saw the picture I upload of this romper.  I purchased this romper at the beginning of Summer for regular price.  Well Forever 21 decided to put it onsale for $11.99 and proceed to then take 50% off ( Do you hear the sarcasm in my voice!?)  Dont you just love that! lol



These babies were a steal at $20!

Casual Attractions: Cheddars

Its the weekend baby and oh how I have missed thee!  Yesterday me and my girl Shayla decided to catch a late dinner at a new restaurant.  I use the term late loosely seeing as we waited forever on our food!  The new restaurant is Cheddars, some of you may have heard of them but its the first one in Mobile and boy was it packed to capacity!  The building itself is super nice and the food was okay, it has potential.  We do plan on going back later during the week but definitely not on a Friday nite!

I decided to dress casual because I didn't know what to expect.  Here lately Ive been shopping my closet not really making purchases because one I haven't seen anything and two if I do purchase something its less than $20!  After putting this outfit together I noticed both pieces still had tags on them lol.  I shop entirely too much but its my stress reliever! I'm not saying I only shop when I'm stressed though because I rarely let stuff get to me and usually if I'm bother I handle the situation accordingly.

Lets get into it....



I freakin love these loafers! I plan on getting the other prints and colors soon! They are definitely a fall favorite and a great alternative to heels

Yall will definitely be seeing this shirt again!  Its very versatile you can dress it up or down!

I love rocking a faux bun and I had to get it out my system.  Ill be getting my roots dyed soon, let me know if you want a recap on my salon visit.

I'm still playing around with my camera I took these shots I took right before the sun went down.

I love these earrings from jewelmint but I haven't made a purchase in awhile.

 

**Thank you all for the congratulatory comments on my big announcement!  I also am the new natural hair contributor for My Urban Access which is an online magazine!  I still have more announcements but they are still in the works so stay tuned!  I am so grateful hard work pays off!

Pink Matter

 

I love shopping as you all may know by now lol.  Im always getting inbox messages about what are some online and in store places to find fashionable plus size clothing.  I was recently asked this same question on my instagram page.  I gave her the usually heavy hitters Forever 21 and  ASOS but I also told her to check Jcpenney.  Most people overlook Jcpenney because most assume the clothing is matronly or basically old fashioned!  I beg to differ I love shopping at Jcpenney, they have a wide variety of lines that cater to all women no matter their age.  For my shoealolics they have some fab shoes and boots as well.  Since I hadn't been in awhile I decided to hit them up and boy did I score!  I found some fabulous pieces that are on trend now as well as for the fall.  DON'T SLEEP ON JCPENNEY!

 





I love the color of this blazer! It will give any outfit that pop of color.
