Welcome to my blog!

I have a passion for fashion but I wouldn’t consider myself a “fashionista.” Dressing head to toe in Chanel, Galliano, or Stella McCartney would be my idea of a perfect world but realistically, I can’t afford it nor do I live the lifestyle! I am an ordinary girl living an ordinary life but I like to “look good." For the last 15 years, I have found a way to keep up with current fashion trends without owning a black, Titanium American Express card. It’s simple, I shop at thrift stores and discount racks. Shopping at thrift stores is eco-friendly and is a sure place to find that unique piece no one else has. I cannot count the number of times I have drooled over a pair of boots or jeans I saw in a fashion magazine and later find at a discount rack or thrift store. Who cares if its the real thing! Looking good on a dime isn’t difficult, it's easy. All it takes is having a little patience and time. I love to share, so consider me your personal stylist.

The 2 BEST Perfumes Ever Created!

I cannot begin to tell you how many times a "second" I get stopped when I wear these two fabulous perfumes.  "Angel" by Thierry Mugler and "Pink Sugar" by Aguolina are the two best fragrances ever created... and did I say affordable and Eco-friendly!  Not only are these scents man magnets, they are magnets to everything that breathes, seriously... but I promise not bug magnets!  Both scents have been around for a while and I am surprised that I haven't smelled more of you ladies wearing them.


Pink Sugar by Aquolina

I am amazed that Pink Sugar is so affordable because it definitely does not smell cheap.  This fragrance is fun and playful with notes of vanilla and caramel. Most every time I walk by someone, I hear "I love how you smell," or "You smell so good... what are you wearing?" I even get adorable comments from children telling me that I smell so good that they want to eat me... while they are practically sniffing my arm off, LOL!  Pink Sugar can be found at Nordstroms and Sephora.  Prices range from $28-$55 depending on size and product. 


Angel by Thierry Mugler

This scent has a very intense richness to it when you first put it on but don't be intimidated by it's sexiness.  Soon after application you become mesmerized by its warm notes of chocolate, vanilla, caramel, honey, sandalwood, and patchouli.  I wouldn't say that "Angel" is real affordable but it is definitely Eco-friendly because you can recycle the bottle and refill it over and over again.  Purchase the "refillable" Eau de Parfume  so when you are at your last drop, you can take it to your local Nordsrtom fine fragrance counter and they will refill it for the refill price.  Expect to pay more at department stores but I found it at http://www.perfume.com/ where it is MUCH more affordable.
Nordstrom-  1.7 oz "refillable" spray is $110
www.perfume.com-  1.7 oz "refillable" spray is $65.99!!!
