Luxe Looks: Ring The Alarm Happy New Year!!!!!

Reflecting on 2015 I must say it was a great year for me and my family.

My husband and I have good careers, My two beautiful children are healthy, intelligent, and happy. And the most exciting thing that happened this year was becoming a business owner!!!

I model occasionally, blog sporadically, and am a Avid thrifter. I love fashion, beauty, and wellness. So when the opportunity came to become a Wellness Ambassador there was no hesitation.

Never be afraid to start a journey, the fear should be in standing still not knowing where you could have ventured.

Luxe Looks: Holiday Glitz.

I love holiday fashion, its hard not to. Its a special time when you can get very ornate and wear patterns , jeweled tones, glitter, and be over the top with out getting too many stares.

Most of my wardrobe consists of thrifted pieces that I build upon with traditional store bought items.
I bought a red sweater with black jewels from Target on sale for $20.00 and paired it with a long black ballet style skirt that I had from the Salvation Army. My long Bisou Bisou embroidered swing coat came from Value World. Knee highs from Aldo, and my patent leather shoes are from Forever 21.

I specialize in shopping smart. I buy high end or more unique specialty pieces from thrift stores or estate sales.

I enjoy putting together looks that I won't see anyone else wearing.
