Shop Your Closet: NYE 2013

Well, its the end of the year and I thought I would share with you all another Shop Your Closet experiment. Everyone knows that New Years Eve is one holiday where it is all about the glam. This is where you can get wild and crazy with the sparkles and glitter and nobody can call you out for it. This year I decided to tame my sparkle and pair with a little inspiration of a bad girl. I put together some black and deep gold coated skinny jeans with a low cut cow neck shirt. I didn't have a tank to go under my shirt, so I just wore a nice black bra and put my trusty black blazer ( the one you have seen about a thousand times LOL!) over it to give it a layered type look. I decided to have a muted outfit so that my over the top sparkle gold shoes have their time to shine. And thus, I created my interpretation of my bad girl inspired ensemble.

Until next time,

PS- The hot chick next to me in the picture is my girl Tanesha. I usually take pictures by myself to showcase my clothes, but the night was so hectic that this was the only picture I took. You know how it is...LOL!

Shop Your Closet (With a little help): Christmas 2012

 Better late than never...

Its Christmas time again and I had to make sure that I looked presentable enough to share the holidays with my family and friends. I don't know about you, but after spending for everyone's Christmas gift, my budget is about to kill me if I spent another dollar. So instead of getting a complete new look for Christmas (like I always do) I decided to do a another installment of shop your closet. I happened to be browsing on line and I absolutely fell in love with these pale pink pearl coated jeans sold at New York and Company. They were regular priced $64 but I waited until they were on sale and got them for $35 (which includes shipping and handling because you know they did not have them in my size in stores...typical). So since that was my one splurge item (which technically wasn't a splurge) I had to shop my closet for everything else. I decided to pair them with a sequin tank top and black blazer. Originally I had some black pumps to go with this, but decided day of to swap them out with black booties due to the weather. Top it off with some light pink jewelry and there you have it...an outfit perfect for any holiday gathering.

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!

Until Next Time...
