Tuxedo Saturday

Sorry I've been MIA the past couple days but I'm back and I have a new trend for you that you will love. Men's tailoring has been a huge influence on women's wear trends over the past few seasons and that has not changed for this fall. The new twist on this trend is fitted tailored looks, here are some of my fav items for this trend.

Two of my ultimate fav tuxedo looks
Left image Right Image
Michael Kors Yves St.Laurent




White tuxedo jacket
dynamite $44.90
Wear with dark skinny jeans and rep pumps, with a fitted blouse underneath.


Black fauw leather tuxedo jacket
dynamite $44.90
wear with white wide legged trousers, a fitted collared blouse, and clogs heels.








Not everyone is going to wear a full suit everyday, this trend is all about finding ways to make it your own. Mix tailored pieces like jackets, trousers, or collared blouses with your favourite pieces like skinny jeans, or your fav top for example to get he right look for you.

Tailored looks not your thing....?

Stay tuned for the next trend!!!! (to be posted by the mid of the week)

Anniversary Outfit

My boyfriend and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary last week!!!!!!!

we went out to celebrate with a nice dinner and boy did I pig out but hey it was a special occasion., and I loved every minute of our day together.

Here is the outfit I wore for our night out,




Pink bodycon dress: Ricki's
Chanel tan jacket: Ricki's
Clutch: Aldo accessories
Shoes: Le chateau
Feather Earrings: Boutique in New York

Cute summer dress

I wore this dress to a summer casual wedding with a pair of sandal wedges.

dress: Forever 21
Necklace: Forever 21
Hat: Gymboree (kids store)

Carnival Photoshoot

For the past 10 or so years my cousin has been really into photography and I was trying to getting into modeling so we've helped each other along the way and here is our most recent shoot together!!!!

Green eyed barbie make-up

Eyes: almay eye palette for green eyes
if you don't have it (I'm not sure if they still sell it) use a a matte purple eyeshadow on the eyelid, then put a dark green shadow on the crease of your eye, and a light green shadow above, just to under your brow bone. I also like to use a white eye shado just under my brow bone as a highlighter.
Eyeliner- Rimmel soft khol black - and then a black gel liner on top after eyeshadow to enhance the colour.

Concealer used(for under my eyes, chin, and any other redness on the face) - Covergirl & Olay simply ageless(it's really a foundation but I use it as a concealer). I like to use a shade or two light than my skin tone so my eyes look brighter. I use shade 205

Foundation: L'Oreal Gentle Mineral make-up with spf 15. I love this foundation I have been using it for 5 years and I pray they never discontinue it or I will go nuts. It's really light on the skin and it doesn't even feel like wearing make up as long as you apply it properly and use a powder brush to fan it out.

Bronzer: Rimmel Sunshimmer 3in1 shimmer bronzer: On my cheek bones, on the angles of my nose, my forehead, and jaw line. Use a fan brush to apply and be sure not to go to dark and rub it in properly with a powder brush.

Blush: Sephora palette (it's a really big set) but it's just a light rosey pink colour and I apply it on top of the bronzer on my cheek bones and fan out.

Eyelashes: maybelline one by one volume express and I love it. I already have really long lashes but making them curl and extend out as always been my problem this really helps.

Lips: Mac lipstick - Snob

missing anything......

hope you enjoyed my look and let me know what you think or how it goes if you try it out for yourself!!!!!!

Birthday gifts!!
