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.

Finding Your Own Personal Style and Look FABULOUS!

You like what you like. Don't be afraid to shine!  "Own" your look so it doesn't look borrowed.  Having confidence in what you are wearing is key. Most of us ladies like to buy what we see everyone else wearing... mistake, mistake, mistake!  Don't get caught up in buying trends that you don't feel confidant in.  If you doubt go without.  Just because something is "the look of the moment," doesn't mean it will look fabulous on you.  Take "leggings" for instance, yes they are a super hot trend of the moment but can you pull it off and look good wearing them?  The answer is simple... if you love leggings then yes and if you kinda love them then NO!  Finding your own personal style isn't difficult, it all comes down to wearing what you love and not being afraid of what others might think... "own it" and you will always look fabulous!
