Easter Attire

Happy Holy Week to my religious followers! I'm still trying to get into the habit of updating this blog more often, the posts definitely won't be this frequent once I head back to school, but I figured why not post since I've got the time.

Unfortunately, I'll be spending Easter alone in my dorm this year, but it's all good. If were going anywhere, I feel this outfit would be ideal, a bright skirt really makes the entire outfit pop and the wedges are perfect for spring, especially in nude, still a huge staple this season and of course a black blazer and pearl earrings are timeless, you can never go wrong with them.

What are you alls Easter plans? Going to church? Going out with friends or dining alone like myself? No matter what it may be, enjoy your time!

Watch Me Work

Not much to say about this, watches are just my newest obsession!

Let's go to the Beach, Beach!

I may be snowed in during my Spring Break, but maybe creating beach inspired Polyvore sets will bring in the spring weather.

But alas, I am in Indiana looking at mounds of snow outside my window, but when I do finally make it to the beach, I hope I can rock this.

This set is plus size inspired, I'm not a size 2 and that's okay because I can still show off my rocking new body on the beach. This suit is perfect, the black slims the entire body and the rouching of the tummy area actually makes your stomach appear flatter than it may be. The halter feature and the keyhole right below the chest draws the eye up at your goodies, which is always nice.

As far as accessories, going to the beach should be simple, diamond studs, your favorite pair of sunglasses and a cute beach bag to carry books, magazines and especially sunscreen, maybe even an inflatable beach ball, just in case you run into some beach cuties ;)

Whether you're shoveling snow today, or laying out on the beach I hope you stay safe, warm and enjoy it!

What a Stud

If you've been watching the award shows this season you know that earrings are a perfect staple to a plain dress or paint suit. In many cases celebs earrings made the outfit. Now, I'm not a fan of dangling earrings or big flashy hoops. but I believe a girl can still get attention with bold statement studs.

These were just a few of my favorites, but this certainly isn't all. Some of my favorite places to shop for earrings are Claire's, Icing, Charming Charlie and Forever 21. Where do you guys like to shop for accessories?

High Low, Anyone?

Peplum tops aren't the only hot thing out for spring. I've been seeing this high low effect in almost everything: dresses, skirts, shirts, it's very cute (especially for girls like me who like to wear leggings and need their but covered)!

This material is light, will blow just perfectly in the wind and is dramatic enough on it;s own that huge statement pieces aren't really needed. I immediately thought that wedges were the way to go, but then I couldn't find any cute enough, but I love these white shoes and I think it's a nice touch!

Much like the peplum top I have not found a style (in the dress and skirt that is) that I absolutely love, so I'll keep looking I suppose. Anyone know of any good places to look, especially if you're in the Missouri area!

Well, I'm signing off fore thing night, that 8 hour car ride left me pooped.

Cheetalicious

Well, it's been a while hasn't it (so sorry!) It's Spring Break for Mizzou and so naturally I am home for a week, which hopefully means a post a day.

I wish I could say I had an awesome internship lined up this summer or something, but I'll be in Columbia, working and taking a class or two. Sad, but it must be done.

I really need to sit down and look at my schedule to see when I am available to just sit down and post for 30 minutes to an hour. I figured if I am not interning I could at least keep writing and posting polyvore sets. Styling is my ultimate goal, I've got to continue to perfect my eye for fashion.

Unfortunately, I haven't updated my personal wardrobe in some time (*tear*) but with the whole weight loss thing it's been a bit pointless to fall head over heels in love with a clothing item that simply won't fit the same in a month or two.

Anyway, peplum tops seems to be the thing right now and I love it! Prints are also making a come back, so when I saw this shirt, I thought best of both worlds, how perfect! I'm not sure how a peplum skirt, shirt or dress would fit on my body type, but I sure am willing to try one on! If I find one I like pictures will be posted!

What are some of your favorite trends you have been seeing so far?

NYE

NYE by wanna-be-fashionista featuring donna karan

Well New Years Eve is quickly approaching and besides making resolutions and what not some of you might be in the same boat as me, no finalized plans and even worse, nothing to wear!

I bought a black blazer, but I still really want a pink one, they are just so cute! I'd also love to add some sexy studs to my shoe collection like the ones pictured here (okay, the cheaper version of each would be great).

So since it is a new year of course I have come up with a new set of goals that I'd like to achieve this year and they are as follows:

• Send someone abroad through AIESEC
• Travel, a lot. Anywhere and everywhere. Alone, with friends, family, strangers, just see as many places as possible, no matter how irrelevant they may be.
• Show these last 30-40 pounds who’s boss. Tone the fuck up.
• Write, sketch, design, style and read more. Finish books, write reflection blogs (where I don’t just bitch), journal more. Who is going to see it isn’t important.
• Fall in love, with Jesus, yourself, your friends then worry about a boy. By then one will deserve you.
• Take every day one day at a time. Remember that at the end of the day you have a chance to start over.
• Breathe. Have fun. Laugh. Go crazy. Relax. Think less. Just live.
• Walk in your gifts. Get that 4.0. Rock that radio show. Sketch those ideas. Style your friends outfits and love every minute of it.

Those are mine, what are some of yours? No matter what your plans for NYE I hope that you are safe and have tons of fun!
