A Little Glitz & Glamour

Hi Everyone! I wanted to do a quick post on my outfit from yesterday. I recently bought the top from Forever 21. Usually I’m not into shirts that are loose fitting but I found it worked perfectly paired with a pair of form fitting leggings & knee high boots.

It does NOT take a lot of money to look like a fashionista-everything I’m wear in this pic is very affordable. The leggings were a steal at $6.00 from Target. I believe the sweater was only $14.80 from Forever 21.  I LOVE  the sequins on the top…so chic! The boots are from Charlotte Russe. I bought a tan pair too-I wear these boots 90% of the time. They are soooo comfy.

…and the earrings?! They are wayyyyyy old. *lol* I got them about 7 years ago at Express! I was obsessed with dangle-style earrings then the obsession faded. Now it’s back and I’m in love with those earrings-again. I see that chandelier earrings are making a come back!

I wish I would have gotten a picture of the makeup-I used all MAC products on my eyes. I have a new favorite smokey eye color. It’s actually more of a borderline obsession! *lol* I’ll have to do a blog post on this makeup look in the next few weeks.

I’m thinking this outfit is calling my name on New Years Eve! We shall see….

Happy Holidays! –xo

Outfit & Face of the Day

Today’s outfit was very comfortable & chill. I am absolutely loving this new cream cardigan that I bought from Forever 21.

I paired today’s outfit with my large silver key necklace & two silver bracelets from Tiffany’s. Since my necklace was rather large, I wore small stud earrings. I don’t wear  small earrings much these days but I love these because I adore bows!

For shoes, I went super comfortable with my tan Emu’s…ahh…like walking on marshmallows! Although, I prefer my Uggs.

As for makeup, I did a golden & bronzey smokey eye and a peachy pink lip. The pictures don’t really show the true color of the makeup. The camera made the eye shadows look a bit more darker than they actually are. However, I think it was a nice contrast with my navy colored cami-the colors compliment each other quite nicely.

Blustery Weather & Blue Ear Muffs

Yesterday I was watching  Gossip Girl. After seeing Blake Lively’s sleek high ponytail, I was inspired. It’s rare to see me without my hair down. I prefer some type of curly do’ but I really like the simplicity of the sleek ponytail. I tried it out today and it thought it was just ok. It looks stunning on other celebs like Blake but for me? Meh.  It was convenient for today because it was thirty-something degrees out & very windy. I wouldn’t wear my hair like this again unless I had super long extensions or until my own hair grows super long.

I thought this was worth posting to show you all my cute little blye heart shaped ear muffs. I called every Forever 21 in the area looking for these little guys. Finally I gave up and ordered them online. Yes, I’m well aware that I’m 26 and these look like something for a three year old! However, I think a glamour gal like myself rocks these well. *lol*

Until next time-xo

Rambles of a Glamour Girl Vol. II

April is upon us & the weather is just amazing here. I forgot how much I absolutely love driving without a coat! There is nothing like a leisurely drive on a Sunday afternoon.

On another note, I decided to try Forever 21 “love &beauty” nail polishes. I’m just wild about any shade of pink and they had a vareity of pink to choose from. It was a gamble because they were less than $3.00 and I must admit I expected massive chipping. It’s been 5 days and not one chip. I’m pleasantly surprised!
