 Good morning everyone!  Yesterday was such a busy day with school, work  and the photo shoot with Max and Meghan Price.   If you’re life is anything like mine, then you’re always on-the-go.  When I’m running around all day I like to wear a comfortable pair of flats, length appropriate shorts and a loose top.  I’ll even bring along a boyfriend blazer in case it gets cool.  You’ll also see me carrying a large tote that can fit my lap top for work and school, my make-up bag for a quick touch up, and maybe even a snack if its going to be a long day.  I also keep a wristlet inside of my purse to hold my phone, keys, wallet and lip balm for easy access to my most important items.  I absolutely love the hot coral J. CREW shorts.  They come in so many different colors and are the perfect length!  I also must tell you that the tan J. CREW bag is such a great steal because it looks just like the Celine luggage handbag which is $1,995.00.

Yesterday’s photo shoot was such a success with Max and Fashion Inspiration Feature: Meghan Price.  We ended up going to three different locations to shoot, but we got a ton of great shots and I was able to get in about eight different outfits.    We couldn’t have asked for better weather.  It was an absolutely gorgeous sunny day with a slight breeze, and the scenery exceeded my expectations.  There was only issue in which I got water proof eye-liner all over my new dress.  Thankfully, after scrubbing the spots with a tooth brush, laundry detergent and warm water I was able to rid of the stain!   It will be a few days before I’ll have the photos from Max, but here are two pictures we took with Meghan’s phone before we wrapped up the day.

Have a wonderful day!

Do you not just love all of these outfits by Ann Taylor?  I am a huge Ann Taylor apparel fan!  My super petite mother has always shopped at Ann Taylor since I was little, and I remember going into her closet and trying on all of her Ann Taylor clothes while she was at work.  The Funny thing was that most of the time her clothes would actually fit me!  However, I guess that’s not much of a surprise considering she’s only 4’11 ft tall, but that is what is so wonderful about Ann Taylor.  They Offer such a great selection of petite clothing giving each individual piece that perfect tailored fit without having to visit the tailor.  Now tell me who doesn’t LOVE less trips to the Tailor?

Have a great day and happy shopping!

Good morning everyone!  What do you think of surf and sea foam together?  I personally love the color combo.

I’m excited about the photo shoot this Tuesday with my next Fashion Inspiration Feature: Adrienne Connely.  Please feel free to contact me via email, Facebook or twitter before the next shoot to tell me what you’d like to see more of.  I’m glad that we’ll finally be shooting the Bijoutiere jewelry that was sent to me last week from Donna Guidry and Mary Irwin in Los Angeles, California.  I’m going to try and include the jewelry in all of the outfits in the upcoming shoot.

Good Morning everyone!! What do you think of J.R. Garret?

 I thought it would be fun to incorporate a little bit of male fashion into my blog every so often just for a little change up.   J.R. actually suggested the idea to me,  and he willingly volunteered to be my first Male Fashion Feature.  I have to say he did an amazing job, and I was very entertained by his interview.  He even used the same pair of jeans in every outfit to show the versatility of a classic pair of dark jeans.

 Let me know what you think of my first male fashion feature by “liking” this post using the Facebook Like button.

P.S. Congratulations to my Fashion Inspiration Feature and friend, Gretchen Barnes, who will be strutting the runway in Amanda DeLeon, Jolie and Sarah, Kelli Cooper and Julie Wheat during NOLA Fashion Week!

Have a great Friday!
