weekly mischief.

Quick post from work//
Since I get/see so many things that I want what seems to be every other day--I thought I'd compile a few of my favorites and post it for you weekly (let's see how I do).
I know my girlfran clandestinecrave wrote about Charlotte Russe awhile ago and I'll have to agree with her 100%.
Most of their clothes are what I used to wear in middle/high school but they are stepping up their game.
They had two pieces that definitely caught my eye this week.

1. Crushed Satin Blazer (Washed Purple/Black/Navy)- $39.50
The reason I love this blazer so much (Bought in washed purple) is because it's a blazer with a twist. It's got the ruched sleeves and the satin touch so you can wear it to work or use it to dress up a plain outfit.

2. Metallic Brocade Shorts- $26.50 now 50% off at checkout!

I love these shorts because they are definitely ones you could pull off in the wintertime. You can wear tights underneath (plain or textured) and pair them with some wedges/booties of choice. 

 

3.  Pleated Paperbag Pant- $26.50 now 50% off at checkout!

If you are bored with straight leg/bootcut/or even skinny's these pants are definitely worth looking into.

I've recently purchased a pair that go great with a form fitting top a cute belt and some sexy heels.

 

The best part of it all are the prices that Charlotte Russe has on some of their clothes.

[shoe] impressions

It's been almost two months since I've last posted.
Honestly I've been busy out of my mind, and have had a lack of inspiration.
But yesterday I had an interesting conversation about shoes.
I have this knack for assessing peoples character by the types of shoes they wear (much like how people apply astrological signs to personality traits).
I won't go into detail how it works--just trust me on it.
However I did decide to post on some basic fall/winter shoes every girl should have in her closet this season, and divulge the shoes I've added to my own personal collection since the last time I've posted.
If you know me at all--you know I have a thing for shoes.
So here goes and this time around I'll post for you gentlemen as well ;]

Fall/Winter must haves:
1. OTK (over-the-knee) boots: I've been searching for the perfect pair and ALDO just put some on sale. The great thing about these boots are if you are short, they make your legs look long--if you are tall, they make your legs look long!

2. Assymetrical heels: these have been catching my eyes and I've seen so many different ways they have been worn. Great to pair with some cute colored socks/tights and a skirt/shorts OR just wear them plain with jeans!

3. CHUNKY heels: the oh so versatile chunky heels--and they are getting easier to find. Pair with skinnys/leggings or a great pair of form fitting jeans and either plain OR embellished top. OR you can pair these shoes with a tight dress. Good day and night shoe. Goes great with ANYTHING!

4. Wedges: Open toed-again looks sexy with some funky socks/tights with a skirt or shorts. Also these go great with dresses you want to dress down to make a little more casual. As for closed toed wedges--these are a perfect way to draw attention to some skinnys and a cute top.

5. Lace Up Combat boots: for those of you with enough courage to go for this boot do it. You won't regret it. My favorite ensemble to date--colorful tights/fringed shorts/over-sized sweater and COMBAT boots. Who said military wasn't sexy?
