To be perfectly honest, I cringe at the idea of denim on denim, but decided to rethink the idea today. I was heavily influenced by miss Alexa Chung and Lissa to try out new denim ideas. If you do decide to take on the challenge, I've found that the best way to begin is by mixing totally different washes, fits and materials of denim. If you decide to go dark and heavy with one piece, let the other one breathe by way of airy fabrics and slimmer cuts. I ended up wearing this out to lunch today. It was barbecue heaven, or at least that's what Kendall said when her plate of garlic butter bread, 4-piece honey barbecue grilled chicken and corn on the cob arrived. I got the sweetend iced tea, biscuits with barbecue gravy (was so good, I am dying for a recipe!!) and 2-piece sticky finger ribs with the quarter serving of honey barbecue chicken (not grilled) and a light Texan Salad (corn, iceberg lettuce, sweet baked beans, topped off with bacon bits & cheddar cheese)

Thanks for all of the lovely feedback lately, guys. I really do read it all, I am trying my best to keep up with replying. It's getting a little harder, but I just wanted to let you all know that I am paying attention to your detailed and well thought out comments and compliments. THANK YOU :)

Suddenly Summer

Thanks to the folks over at Motel for dress numero dos. I decided to play it classic with simple accents in black since the print on the dress is enough of a statement on its own. I've been wearing my new Jee Vice sunglasses day in and day out. The square faced shape has me gaga. And thanks to Jenna over at The Supermelon for introducing me to Purple Lab lip gloss by Karen Robinovitz. I went with "Red Sole" but of course. Goes on smoothly, isn't sticky, absolutely delicious and looks so pretty. ;)


Fun Fact:
The song you are listening to is Beyond the Sea by Bobby Darin, one of my favorite crooners! This is the song my husband and I walked into the Reception, after the Wedding with. ♥

Salute Your Shorts!

jacket: Gap
blouse: DKNY
shorts: DIY cut offs
wedges: Bakers


For those of you who have been following my blog for sometime now, you may recognize my wedges from this previous post. In an Autumnal mood, I opted for a light weight denim jacket. Not cold enough for pants or boots, just yet, but at least it's cool enough for a light jacket. I decided to pay homage to one of my all time favorite television shows from when I was a kid, Salute Your Shorts. A Nickelodeon based series that aired in the early 90's; about a group of misfit kids all bonding together to beat the Counselor at his system.

"Camp Anawanna, we hold you in our hearts..."

Statues Crumble for me

Thank you, Karyn at Alias denim, for the wonderful pair of jeans. As an avid denim collector, I was quite pleased to receive this pair in the mail. The fit, wash and feel are perfect. And to think they retail for only $40? After paying hundreds of dollars on premium denim, for their quality and fit, both Alias denim and I didn't like what it was doing to our bank accounts. Luckily, they decided to take the matter into their own hands to create something equally stylish yet budget friendly; and that is how Alias premium denim came to be.
