Memo 143: The Bronze & Army Green Brigade

To: All

From: Me

Date: July 23, 2014

Subject: Studs + Sequins
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Who doesn't love a little sequin and stud thrown into the mix? I mean really. For a night out on the town with your main squeeze or with the girls, add a little sparkle to your life with a mix of studded sequin texture. This look has just the right mix where it's not an over powering gaudy mess but more of an army green and bronze sexy hot freshness. For date night and a night out with the girls, sexy hot freshness always wins!

Singing "These are a few of my favorite things…"

You all already know how I feel about brunch and then don't let there be unlimited (fill in the blank with your favorite breakfast cocktail) because that is my dream meal!

So, when I saw this "Brunch & Bottomless Mimosas" t-shirt from Tees in the Trap, I felt as if they made it specifically for me! Tees in the Trap is all about all things pop culture. Most of your favorite quotes from some of your favorite reality TV stars will be found in the trap. Besides this "Brunch & Bottomless Mimosas" t-shirt, I may be a little obsessed with the "My Ideal Weight is Idris Elba on Top of Me" shirt. Somebody had to say it!

And yes, you can even "wake up like this".

Memo 141: Put the Blue in Red, White and Blue!

Happy Fourth of July Eve! *twirls with sparklers in hand*

So, we are all pretty clear that I have a shoe obsession, correct? Back in the spring, I highlighted these Colorblock PVC Sandals from Fendi as one of my top picks for Spring.

Well, that end of the season sale hit and I was stalking these babies like they were on sale at the end of the season (because they were). It's a tricky game to play but sometimes you come out a winner.

Paired with this simple t-shirt dress, the shoes are definitely making a statement!
