Gifts For Your Guy

Hey! It's almost Christmas, have you gotten your guy something nice? We all know that guys are hard to shop for. So why not get them something that they will need even if they don't realize it yet....

1. Button Down Shirt: You want your guy to look good when you go out, so why not a classy button down shirt? I recommend Vineyard Vines, Southern Marsh, or Southern Proper. 




2. Watch: Every guy needs a way to tell time aside from their cell phone. Why not a watch? It can be the most grown up thing he owns. If he already has one, then get a new one. Just make sure it fits his style. 




3. Cologne: There shouldn't be an explaination for this. Everyone should smell good. Just pick one you like because you don't want him to smell like something you don't like. 


4. Sunglasses: Sunglasses are a great accessory to have. They can protect his eyes from the sun and make him look hotter. Pick a pair that fits his personality and lifestyle.


5. Bow tie: He will need a bow tie to go with his button down shirt. Enough said.

Stocking Stuffers For Your Gals

Hey! 

There's only a few days left until Christmas, and that means if you haven't gotten your gals their gifts yet, here's an idea of what you could pick up. These are small, but cute gifts that any gal would love. So maybe one gift isn't enough, go ahead, get two, or three! 

1. Charm Bracelet: a charm bracelet is cute, classy and versatile. It can be worn for date night with her guy, it can be worn with a Tshirt and jeans to class, or a blouse and slacks to work. 

2. Perfume: If you know your friends favorite scent, get it for her! She will be guaranteed to love it! If you aren't sure, start with something that matches her personality. If she's bubbly and very social, then try something fruity like Bath and Body Works' Peach Bellini, if she is cutesy and shy then try a floral scent like Victoria's Secret's Sheer Love If she's a very take charge lady who always gets what she wants, then try a strong scent with vanilla. Juicy Couture is perfect for that. 

3. Body/Face scrub: Some of you might be thinking, wait a minute...you can't use your body scrub on your face!! You are right, although there is a new cosmetic store that is becoming very popular, very quickly called Lush. Lush makes vegetarian cosmetics that are all natural with little to no perservatives. Their washes are safe enough to use on all areas of your body. Ocean Salt is my favorite scrub. It's exfoliates for soft skin all day. If there isn't a Lush store nearby that you can visit, just go online and look at their catalog. I guarantee that you will fall in love with their products the moment you start using it. :) if you want your friend to love her gift, then I would go to Lush and pick something out for her. 

4. Naked3: If your gal is into makeup and eyeshadow, and especially Urban Decay, then there are no words needed. 

5. Phone Case: Maybe your friend has had the same phone case on her iphone since she waited in line to get her phone when it was released, or maybe she doesn't have one at all, whatever the "case" may be, (pun not intended) everyone loves a cute new phone case. 

6. Bow Ring: Bow rings are becoming very popular. They are a cute little accessory to add to your friends finger. They are dainty, and girly. They can make any girl feel prettier. 

7. Nail Polish: My question to you is, what gal doesn't love nail polish? Make sure to get a strong formula that won't crack or chip easily that has shine and won't hurt her nails. Try Essie, Opi, Butter or Chanel.

Some News

HEY! Yes, I know I haven't been on in a very long time! My laptop keyboard recently broke and it's hard to get in a mind set of creating a post when I'm using my ipad. I just get distracted texting my lovely guy <3 with am app called couple that we both have on our iOS devices to keep our text messages from sky rocketing. Any who, I wanted to talk about what I recently got in the mail. I recently received a "voxbox" from influenster.com. Influenster is an amazing website that allows you to get free samples and all you have to do is try them and review them. I got the varsity voxbox and it included so many goodies including Kiss Nail Dress, Tide PODS, NYC Big Bold Lip Gloss, Airheads XtremeBites, and Clearasil Daily Clear Refreshing Superfruit Wash. They are all excellent products and I would recommend them time and time again. I will have a specific review of all of these products in later posts so come back and check it out!

Manic Monday: Poshmark


HEY!

So over the weekend I discovered an AMAZING website....its called Poshmark. You can sell and buy clothing. My favorite part is the community feeling you get on the site. Everyone has their own "closet" and in their "closet" are listings of what is for sale. You have the option to like, comment and share a listing. Most users are willing to negotiate their price. But don't disrespect them and their listing by asking for too little. And don't price your items too high. You want to be fair. Some of the clothing on the site is WONDERFUL! In fact, I made two purchases on there this weekend. I bought a Patagonia fleece jacket and a lovely pair of long chocolate brown authentic UGGS all for a grand total of $40. The boots only had a few knicks in the sole of the shoe and the seller was desperate to get rid of them. The jacket seller was desperate to get rid of it and there was no damage whatsoever. I'll post pictures when I get them!!!!


So, I decided to create some work outfits with stuff that you can on Poshmark. The items shown here are similar to what you can find on the site.



ENJOY :)

Remembering 9/11

HEY!

Today is September 11, 2013. 12 years ago in New York City, a terrible and unspeakable tradegy occurred.....taking hundreds of lives. Today, I say lets remember those we've lost. Show your patriotism. I created 3 sets to show your patriotism and spirit of the US while still looking cute! 

Go ahead, show your spirit!

Hump Day Treat


HEY!

Guess what day it is!
Yes, Wednesday! And I have some lovely outfits for your Wednesday.
As I was preparing for this post, I decided that some of you probably don't dress up or are slowly transforming to more comfortable clothing as the weather gets colder. Whatever the reason, I have three casual outfits for you to admire, and to try. 

The first one includes a hoodie and boyfriend jeans. Cute it up with pretty flats or loafers.
The second one includes a knitted cardigan with skinny jeans. Pair that with cowboy boots and your comfy outfit suddenly looks a lot cooler.
The last one includes pink flats and shorts. Pair the shorts with a printed long sleeve top for coverage in the changing weather.

Game Day Saturday!


HEY!

It's friday which means that we are only a day away from my favorite day of the week in the fall, GAMEDAY!
I have came up with three game day outfits for three teams. One is from the ACC (because Clemson is my team!) and two from the SEC, because I live in Georgia and that should be represented in this post. I really don't like LSU but it's a powerhouse, so why not represent it?

I love college football and will won't make plans on game day unless it includes watching the game....Do you like football? If so, who's your team?











Game day: Clemson





Game day: UGA

Wearing White Pants in Fall

HEY!

    Sorry for not posting in awhile!! I've been busy with classes and my new workouts also not to mention my job and a girls gotta socialize right?
Anyway, today I have for you a way to continue wearing your lovely white pants in the fall without looking like you are still stuck in summer.
The first set features the all so versatile chambray shirt with edgy boots. You can keep it classy with a structured watch and a crossbody.
The second set has a more laid back vibe and includes the plaid button down ,which is a fall must have, paired with low cut flat sneakers.
The last set is work appropriate and includes a deep blue blazer because jewel jones are this fall's must wear colors. It is also spiced up with an animal printed top peeking out and nude flats.

Thirsty Thursday: Summer to Fall

HEY!

This is a special post. It is about transforming your summer clothes to make them work for the fall.
Most of us love to shop, unfortunately we may sometimes be on a budget and will need to find ways for our summer clothes to work for the fall. This post is about using your old summer crop top in the fall when going out.

1. Pair your flowing crop top with a bodycon skirt and chunky sandals. Add a colorful clutch and some arm candy

2. Take your plain tee crop top and add some high waist trousers in a hot fall color such as oxblood, or a deep emerald. Finish off with sky high pumps and a nude bag.

3. Your denim crop top is the most versatile, you can pair it with anything in the previous lists but if you are going for a edgy but not over the top look, pair it with a maxi skirt in a hot fall color and cut out boots. You can complete the outfit with long earrings and a bag with some hardware. (Bonus if the two metals are the same color!)

Below are some examples of each type of outfit:

Manic Monday: Back To School


HEY! 

So I was thinking....why have Manic Mondays revolve around desk jobs?

Teachers like fashion too! 

So, I have 3 sets that are appropriate for school working. 

Set 1 is for an elementary school teacher. Easy. Comfy. Cool. 

Set 2 is for a middle school teacher. Pretty. Fashionable. Easy. 

Set 3 is for a high school teacher. Fab. Pretty. Respectable.
