Finding a Style Muse

Yes sir and madam,

The cutest style off a reality television show: Cher Lloyd. I always love me a cute Brit. Sometimes her style is a little "too out there" but I appreciate her taking risks. Her hair always looks trendy too which helps that she's engaged to a hairdresser. I'm finally going thrift store shopping this weekend so I try to emulate her style. I like five out of six of these pictures/outfits, can you guess which one I would NEVER wear? Let's all start trying out her makeup and hair pulled back. Could it be any prettier and more simple?

Black Stiletto

Friends,

I bought a new pair of black heels from Windsor. I've been eyeing a similar pair since Jennifer Aniston's sweet stems have been walking around in them forever. I know you already saw my closet and don't know how I can fit another pair of shoes in there. My closet is similar to that of a Mary Poppin's handbag; the more you fill it the cleaner it gets? I'm trying to buy quality fabrics for shoes since I usually wear the heck out of them and these pretty ladies are suede. I will keep you posted when I wear these ladies out for a special occasion or just to walk around Westport. I think these look Parisian and need to be worn to Westport Cafe for a date night. PS-Jennifer Aniston is adorable in these heels and I need a black leather dress, no?

Poncho's-Love em, hate em?

Tuesday morning has arrived,

I have two poncho's in my closet but I think this will grow into much more. I think this is a style flattering on most body-types especially for a lot of my cute-preggo friends lately. Ponchos can be worn by a variety of different age brackets too which is nice for older ladies that need to stop shopping at Forever 21. (myself included) I have yet to order a Georgia O'Keefe/New Mexico inspire poncho but I am still searching for the perfect one. I enjoy the styling of this one because it is understated and not trying too hard to be worn; for most work situations I think pants not just tights would be required. The bright pink shirt underneath a poncho is nice too with slightly flared black pants. I think poncho's have a nice way to keep you warm and say I'm not trying too hard to be something ridiculous off the runway. I hope to visit my favorite store 1/2 of 1/2 Name Brand Clothing this weekend to take pictures of some new finds for my closet. As always when I find something new it's time to retire something old from my closet. RIP old clothes, RIP.

Rye KC

Happy Saturday,

Today consisted of getting over a massive headache, blowing my nose a ton, eating donuts, regretting eating donuts, and taking a long cat nap after last night. It was a blast going out for Robbie's work but maybe I pushed it a little too hard staying out late after being sick. I had fun trying a new do with my hair and trying to do something different with my make-up for the Holiday Party. (See my post from yesterday to see what I wore out and how I did my hair)

We ate at Rye KC, Rob and I don't venture much out of the Plaza/Westport/Downtown area so it was a fun change for one night. http://www.ryekc.com/ I highly recommend going there for my friends who like Manifesto because their Mixologist came up with Rye KC's cocktail menu. Robbie and I both tried a cocktail called Coffee and Cigarettes. Disclaimer-if you don't like either one of those things DO NOT get this cocktail. Rob's picture is with his cocktail "Goldenrod." Look at the size of that ice cube in the glass!
