Dressing With Authenticity

Merry Christmas, I am here sitting on my couch just reveling in my time off from work.  I have discover style.com on my husbands new dvd/sound system and I am glad I did.  I have received some insight from one of my favorite actresses, Kerry Washington.  Kerry was discussing her personal style and how she loved the way Rhianna and Lauren Hutton dressed.  She stated that these women know exactly who they are and dress accordingly. After many years of trying different trends and different looks, I finally know who I am.  I am classic with a twist of rebel.  When I was younger, I loved dressing in basic black form fitting clothing.  I also loved boots and leather.  I found my true authenticity by analyzing different looks over my lifetime.  I always loved leather. Leather jackets, skirts, pants, and boots.  I look at my grown-up closet, I own a black leather skirt, pants,  jackets and boots.  I like what I like. What I have found visiting different blogs and watching many reality T

Accepting Yourself

Blessings to All, I had a busy week this week.  Yesterday, I threw my sister a baby shower for her first child.  It was beautiful.  Although things didn't go as plan like me arriving 45 minutes late, but the shower was really nice.  It is hard to plan something for someone who is totally picky about what they eat.  My sister doesn't eat deli meat (that eliminates sandwiches), she only eats chicken breast, and she can't have certain cheeses.  So we end up serving pizza from a stone oven, Italian sodas, pasta salad, meatballs, fried chicken breast tenders, and a fruit tray.  Everyone was pleased.  Her colors were purple and purple.  I even went as far to wear a shade of purple.  I looked really cute.  I bought a blouse from my favorite store of course, Ann Taylor www.anntaylor.com and some leather leggings from Neiman Marcus.  I was rocker chic.  I finished the look with some Cole Hahn leather boots that blended in with the leggings.  After the day winded down, I reflecte

Happy Anniversary to Groupthink7

Good Afternoon, Today marks the official 1 year anniversary of my blog.  I made it.  I like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has visited my blog.  A lot has changed over the course of a year and I must say.... I am still a work in progress.  So many opportunities have opened up for me this year.  I also have met so many wonderful people.  I am going to end my post today with thanking the Creator for my many blessings and for everyone following me this year.  May the Creator keep you in the best of health, happiness, and spirits.  Until next time, many, many, many, many, blessings.

Target Meets Neiman Marcus

Blessings Guys, http://www.target.com/p/proenza-schouler-sweatshirt/-/A-14209674#prodSlot=medium_1_20  http://www.target.com/p/brian-atwood-leather-gloves/-/A-14207120#prodSlot=medium_1_47 http://www.target.com/p/proenza-schouler-sweatshirt/-/A-14209674#prodSlot=medium_1_20 I don't believe that I am up at 1:30AM in the morning shopping.  I was excited about the new Target and Neiman Marcus collaboration that I had my daughter stalk the website to let me know when it was time to buy.  Typically, I don't fall prey to the designer collaborations with big tier stores since the whole Missoni spectacle (I end up giving most of my Missoni purchases away after my weight loss), but I had my eye on the leather studded gloves by Brian Atwood; the sweatshirt from Proenza Schouler and a fur vest  from Skaist-Taylor.  I also purchased my daughter a sweatshirt because she stood watch relentlessly to make sure I got what I wanted.  The items can be found at both Target and N
