4 WAYS TO STYLE DENIM


Hey There CHICsters, 

It's no secret how fond I am of denim. It just seems to go with EVERYTHING  (in my opinion) LOL. You can dress it up and down depending on the occasion or how you're feeling at the moment. I particularly like to pair it with a bright skirt, or a denim pencil skirt like the popular look Celebrity Rihanna wore, or even a hot pair of leather shorts and some heels to spice up a night look. Denim is Everything!!! Try it and tell me how you style your denim this season.

PLAYFUL POLKA DOTS

Howdy CHICsters, (LOL that reminds me of my time living in Houston Texas)

Spring is the perfect time to refresh your classic with bright invigorationg colors like lime, hot pink, yellow, and cobalt blue and I love to do this with my outerwear. The colors of this MOTO jacket and Trench are the perfect contrast to this black & white collared dress. PLAYFUL POLKA DOT pumps add flair to a look that can be worn to both the office as well as after work activities such as dinner and drinks at your fave restaurant. Either way, this look is sure to turn heads in a major way ;-)

SPRING FEVER


Hey CHICsters,
Spring has sprung...finally!!! Time to move all of that winter gear and darker colors to the back of your closet and bring forth all the pretty pastels, and vibrant colors of the new season. Today's featured look is super easy to pull together and can be worn to work, pairing it with a classic cardigan or blazer and keeping everything else the same. Today is Friday, and I don't know about ya'll but by the end of the week my hair has had it so a sleek top bun is an effortless way to look chic while not spending too much time "fixing" my hair.

When wearing a statement necklace, I usually opt for either studs or no earrings at all since the necklace is already a powerful piece. Don't be that person with the statement necklace, chandelier earrings and an arm full of bangles, #NoBueno LOL





SPRING FEVER

Don't you just love lemon yellows and powder blues together? Soooo soothing :-)

ORANGE YOU GLAD...


When the weather is as warm as it is here in Trinidad, the more airy the clothing the better. 




Spent the day at the beautiful Botanical Gardens in Trinidad, taking in all of the beautiful landscape such as the bamboo trees, poui trees, as well as the well manicured gardens. 


It was a lot of walking so I just through on my blinged out Michael Kors jellie sandals.


...and yes! For every "good" pic I take there are always several of my goofy moments...definitely the real me LOL

ANIMAL INSTINCTS


Hola CHICsters, 

As many of you know from my Instagram & Twitter I've been in the lovely islands of Trinidad and Tobago for the past two weeks. I initially came here for the Greatest Show On Earth...Trinidad Carnival, but decided to stay a little longer to spend time with family and friends. Love the perks of being self employed, no boss to negotiate days off with LOL. 






Can't you tell how much I love the scent of these lovely bougainvillea flowers? 


My fancy photography location 



I'm not sure why but my blog platform is not letting me update links within this post right now, soooo I'll have to update those later.

VACAY MODE

Hola CHICsters, 

Just checkin in w/ you all. If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram you know that I've been in the wonderful island of Trinidad for Carnival. Although the festival is over, I'll be here enjoying time w/ friends & Fam for another week (happy face)...here's a lil glimpse of what this experience has been like ..



I'm working on a blog post about the carnival and all the beautiful costumes, pumping music, & off the chain events I attended to show you a bit of my culture. 

Stay tuned,
