Black & White

I don't remember photography being this difficult when I was on the yearbook committee in high school.  I couldn't get the right lighting with these photos but I enjoyed this outfit.  I was going for kind of an 80s vibe with this look.  I put my hair into a faux-hawk and left the shoulder pads in this blazer that I got from the thrift shop.  I carried the black and white color scheme all the way down to my shoes.  Sadly this is the last time I'll be able to wear these shoes.  I broke the heel while I was out!!

Color Block

I apologize for being missing in action over the past few weeks.  I assure you it's for a very good reason but it's too soon to share (I know, it's not fair).  In the meantime, I'll share with you an outfit I wore over the weekend.  I'm loving this color block trend.  I often color block (even before it was "trendy") but I decided to try a different combination of pieces and colors.

I'm still in the learning process with my camera and tripod so please be patient with my amateur photos.  I'm going to get better...I promise!!

Stripes & Color

Thanks to a 3-day weekend (President's Day), I had the opportunity to visit a dear friend of mine in Miami.  The city was beautiful, the weather was fabulous, and there was so much to see and do.  It was so exciting to pull out my sandals and t-shirts in February.  Unfortunately, I had some technical difficulties with my camera after the first night so I didn't capture nearly as many photos as I had planned.  Here is my outfit from Friday night for dinner and club hopping.  The view is downtown Miami.
