Hey B&B friends! Lately, I’ve been thinking about how I want to modify my personal style in 2016, and I feel like I need to incorporate more tailored pieces into my wardrobe. A few weeks ago, I wore this pinstriped jumpsuit from Akira Chicago with one of my favorite structured pieces,– a sleeveless white blazer that I found…
This post was initially going to be a short-and-sweet outift of the day feature, until I realized that I kinda have a thing for nude and black clothing combos. So, it’s no shocker that my latest look is a nude dress and a black longline blazer. If I could wear all black everything, all day every…
I rarely wear turtlenecks. I’m not sure why. Well, actually I do know why. I live in Florida the weather really doesn’t permit it. That was pretty much the case yesterday when my BF and I got together to snap pics of today’s featured outfit. The temperature was in the low 70’s, but I wanted to dress for…
Yesterday, there was a cold front in the Tampa Bay Area. It was the first time since the Autumn season officially started that temperatures dropped from the low 90’s and mid-80’s and dropped into the 40’s. Today, it’s a different story.

I’m always in the phase of cleaning/assessing/reorganizing my closet, so on a random Friday evening I decided to do a little cleaning and I stumbled upon a really dope utility jacket that I bought at Old Navy a few years ago. I was living in Chicago and it was snowing and cold, but not freezing so…

That’s exactly what Cortnie Elizabeth, the brains and beauty behind the Love, Cortnie handbag company did when she decided to leave the worlds of Kinesiology and Physical Therapy for a fashion career. After earning a…
When I’m feeling blue, I don’t get sad… I get glam! I actually wasn’t feeling blue when I snapped these pictures over the weekend. I was in a pretty good mood. The weather in Florida was gorgeous (mid-80s and sunny) and I got to spend the afternoon playing in my clothes and makeup. Pretty dope,…
Have you ever put on an article of clothing and suddenly felt like you had more pep in your step? That’s exactly how I feel when I slip on these fringe shorts. I’ve always walked to the beat of my own drum when it comes to what I wear. I go by the “business in the…
