Click Click Take A Picture

I love the paisley design and the material of this dress.  The colors are so soft and neutral.  I found it very easy to style and it's a comfortable dress.  However, I think I'm going to retire this little beauty.  I noticed the  seams seemed to be coming loose, and the material frays a lot.  I've had this dress for over a year, and she has done very well by me.   I'm not sure if I should just toss it, or if I should donate it to Goodwill?  What do you fine readers think?

 I loved this belt the moment I laid eyes on her.  However we weren't quite a perfect fit, so I took her to be fixed and now it's a match made in AJ Wright!

Red & Yellow Red & Yellow

I was up so late last night trying to create an outfit for today.  I scoured fashion blogs, magazines, the color wheel and my closet for inspiration to almost no avail.  But don't fret fashion friends.  I did manage to put something together.









Voila!

Badass


There is something about wearing all black that makes me feel tough.  I don't know what it is, but I have an image in my head of riding around on a Harley, and taking my helmet off to whip my hair back and forth (lol I couldn't resist).  The leather jacket also adds to my badass persona.  Indulge me people :).

Nesting

I went with the boo to church today.  I intended on wearing this skirt, but I was unsure what top to pair it with.  When I settled on this top, I wondered how my polka dot tights would look with it.  I rarely mix patterns, but after seeing how well the two different sized dots looked together, I think I like it, and I just may try it again.

Wild Thang, You Make My Heart Sing

Howdy ladies and gents,
Corny I know, but these cowboy boots bring out the country in me lol.  I got them a couple of weeks ago from Steve Madden.  Prissy of Rush Our Fashion is so good to her readers, she gave us a heads up that Steve Madden was having a 1/2 off clearance special and I being the overzealous shoe collector that I am wasted no time in picking a couple to come home to me.

The Night that Never Was

My sis called me to see if I would be interested in going to a local lounge to chill and listen to some Kompa and Zouk.  I of course jumped (more like sauntered) out of bed to find a LBD (little black dress) for the event.  Alas ladies we did not make it to the event, so I was all dressed up with nowhere to go.  My night was a bit ruined but listening to Kompa and Zouk always lifts my spirits so give a listen.

Soft and Neutral

My sister in law threw a surprise birthday party for my brother today.  Of course I was late and made it there way after the birthday boy's arrival.  I like to think that I made a fashionably late entrance.  It was at a cool restaurant called Louie's in Patriot's Place.  Definitely check it out if you live in or are visiting the great Bay State.  Since it was a small family and friends hang out vibe, I wore jeans and a plain v neck white T.

Hi all,
The following posts are relatively old, and I am adding them from Tumblr.  Enjoy, and feel free to ask me any questions!

Communicating in the Work Place

Here is a funny image I found on Tumblr about proper speech etiquette and acceptable language in the work place.  It brought me lots of laughter.  Enjoy!

Polyvore

As you can see from my last several posts, I love to put clothes together and create outfits that I find interesting.  Prior to finding Polyvore, I would individually photograph clothing items and imagine how I wanted to style them.  So time consuming I tell you.  Lucky for me and you, Polyvore is here to minimize the time it takes to create a visually stunning outfit.  It's super easy to do and it has helped inspire a lot of outfits.  Check it out, and let me know what you think, and feel free to share some of your creations aka sets!
