    Shopping Haul!!!

    Okay so this weekend. I was totally looking forward to shopping till I dropped in the lovely New York. Unfortunately I had to settle for NJ but my adventure was a success none the less. When I tend to shop I look for key pieces that will give my outfit a soft touch but make a loud statement. I look for clothing that will compliment my skin tone but will definitely speak volumes along with my jewelry!

    This fall season I will load up on tons and tons of scarves and sweaters. Ranging from all different shapes, sizes, and colors.

    Enough about me, here’s what I was able to find:

    Summer time has ended but that doesn’t mean staying in style ends. The above Addidas Athletic gray jacket with pink stripes cost $79.99. Fortunately for me it was on sale which bumped it down to $59. While adding my military discount I got this baby bumped to a nice $39, saving a total of $40!!!

    Can you say WIN!!!

    Fall is the perfect season to find those boots and sweaters to wear to a college football game or run to class in!

    Above: Charlotte Russe, Crystal-Studded flat Opal Earrings $5 ( two for $10).

    Left: Charlotte Russe, 3-Pack of Pastel Colored Studded Earrings $5 ( two for $10).

     Right: Rue 21, 3-Pack of Natural Colored Bangles $2.

    All the above jewelry can go from day to night, work to out on the town. I prefer to buy simple jewelry that can go with just about anything.

    The above sweater was purchased at Forever 21, for only $15! A pastel green, multi-ribbed knit great for the fall.

    Now many may not think that is not a sale but this plain sweater has so much potential.

    I could through some pins, or some loud jewelry with it to make it stand out.

    When it gets colder I can even through a couple of colorful scarves to spice things up!

    My first blazer was purchased at Forever 21 for only $22! I found this on a rack of multi-colored salmon blazers.

    The pink will give me a soft touch with the harsh reds and oranges that will soon be showing outside.

    It’s not a heavy blazer meant to keep one warm but more for the style side.

    This blazer will go perfectly with the new black heel boots I got from ALDO.

    All the above clothing are statement makers. I want to walk into any setting a turn heads. I’m attempting to update my wardrobe, this is only the beginning. I’m blossoming into a lady and boy is this road interesting. My next adventure will be trying on makeup! I can’t wait to show you how it turns out…of course with a little practice first.

    Event LOVE: @MassimoDutti Store Opening

    “The Massimo Dutti woman aims for a style that is personal, while adding touches of fashion trends set on international catwalks.”

    On Thursday night we celebrated the grand opening of Massiom Dutti in Toronto at the Eaton Centre.  This is the first-ever Massimo Dutti North American store, and let me tell you, as soon as you walk in, you instantly get this STRONG desire to shop! The clothing is fantastic of course, but I just love how the store is set up; it’s beautifully decorated, everything from the lighting and furniture to the way that the clothing is displayed. It’s just lovely in there. I got a lovely and informative tour of the store and everything Massimo Dutti from Aaron, during which I found so many pieces that MUST be mine, come rain or shine.

    Look for Aaron when you go, he knows everything about Massimo Dutti, and he’s super friendly 🙂

    Robyn and Tamika 🙂

    Beautiful and is smooth like butter baby! This is part of the men’s collections, but it should totally be mine.

    Christina rocking a cute Massimo Dutti dress 🙂

    The food was AMAZING! I ate, and ate.. and ate 🙂

    The lovely miss hawley dunbar 🙂

    “…the Massimo Dutti man has had a unique personality that translates through the collections, using high quality materials and interesting combinations of textures and styles.”

    the attention to detail is EVERYTHING.

    “…the Massimo Dutti woman is a city dweller, practical, elegant, and contemporary who believes in her style and knows what she wants.”

    it was love at first sight, feel and wear.

    pretty and yummy all at the same time!
