Look For Less! Rose Gold Pumps!

12 Nov

I am beyond excited about today’s look for less post. Months ago I spotted these super cute metallic heels at the J.Crew presentation at New york Fashion Week- super cute double ankle strap metallic heels in rose gold! As most of you know, I’m obsessed with rose gold, so needless to say I just couldn’t get the pumps out of my head but I forced myself to forget about them (because I had just purchased silver pumps)BUT then I saw the same heels at Zara for about 1/3 of the price!!!!!! Long story short- the Zara heels arrived at my door today and I’m in love!   Check out the J.Crew style and the very similar Zara style. These beautiful heels can be worn year round for a pop of pizzazz at your feet!!!!!

Leopard and Oxblood!

28 Oct

Today’s outfit of the day(actually last Friday’s) is one of my go-to Fall looks- skinny jeans worn with a blazer & cute top and sexy heels. In this case I wore a peplum top and my favorite strappy oxblood heels!  This outfit is of course a high-low mashup because I just don’t like it any other way!  Although I love my designer duds, It is a RARE occasion that I wear 100% designer because I love to mix it up! I almost always have something from Target, H&M or Forever21 in my ensembles.  I’m also quite aware that many fashionistas are on budgets and I really love knowing that my readers can always afford something from my OOTD posts!

I added a link below for the shoes as I always get flooded with questions about where to purchase them.  All other items that are currently available have links as well.

Have a great Monday- Journey.

Matching Lip & Nails!

26 Oct

Last week on Instagram I posted a picture of my matching lipstick and nails!  I got so many questions about the colors, so here is the information! The lipstick is a gorgeous purple/fuchsia color by the name of Brazen Berry by Maybelline. Last week while I was checking out at Forever 21, I saw this nail polish that seemed quite close to this lipstick and for less than three bucks I decided to take the risk and hope they matched! It turned out they were identical! Yay!!

Maybelline Brazen Berry $5.59 available HERE.

Forever 21 nail color in Eggplant $2.80 available HERE.

Fabulous Friday Finds!

25 Oct

Happy Friday everyone, I hope your week has been amazing thus far.  This week’s find is an eye shadow palette that will help you achieve a neutral smokey eye without breaking the bank.  If a smokey eye is not your thing,  you can apply the shimmery tones alone for a soft pretty look.  The colors in this palette look great on all skin tones and aren’t “too crazy” if you’re just getting into eye color. Palettes  are great because you can take them anywhere and they have everything you need all in one place.

This palette includes 10 shadows and a double-sided brush in a mirrored case!!

$19.95 Available HERE.

Teal Heels!!!!

17 Oct

Every Fall & Winter a slew of  gorgeous rich colors make their way into our wardrobes. Most of us turn to our black, grey, brown and navy pieces throwing the occasional burgundy and camel in the mix and call it a day.  This year however, I’m already seeing much more color- tons of reds, greens, oranges and purples but my favorite color of all is TEAL! I love how luxuriously fun teal is! The emerald meets deep blue hue is so pretty and pairs well with many other colors like black, grey, camel and gold!  I can’t even express how much I love gold and teal together!

A great way to incorporate this divine color into your wardrobe is to start with a heel!  Check out these styles below!
