Shreveport Bound!


This past weekend I went to visit my mother in East Texas. We decided to go to Shreveport so we could shop on the boardwalk and visit the casinos. I wanted to wear my new crop top/bandeau from Fashion to Figure and my chevron striped maxi from Torrid. I love this skirt!! I bought it last year. It was a black slip underneath and the fabric is thick but still breathable. The black band is great for support. The one released this year does not have slip, so it is more breathable. I paired it with my emerald green blazer, also from Fashion to Figure. I wanted to show some skin, but not too much. It was a little hot that day, but I could handle it. Along with being stopped at the boardwalk with compliments, I received free ice cream from this guy at Diamond Jacks trying to flirt. So, I can say this was a cute outfit. lol

I just love this floral blazer I bought at Torrid last week! To put more focus on the jacket, I decided to pair it with a black skater dress I bought from Debshops two years ago. It's getting hotter in Texas, but I was going to be inside all day so I didn't mind wearing my blazer. I like the mix of colors in the print. There is your classic black and white, with pops of fuchsia, limeade, orange, pink and green. I also wanted to add a waist belt because I wasn't wearing too many accessories. I wanted the focus to be on the blazer's print. I bought this silver, feather plated belt from Torrid when I first started 2 years ago. Since then we don't really have stretch belts anymore, only skinny belts. To add with the color, I wore these fuchsia, cork-bottom heels.

OOTD :)


Today was really cloudy day, even rained in a few areas. I wanted to wear my new blue jacket I bought at Torrid. I'm obsessed with blazers and jackets!! The wind has been blowing harder lately, so I didn't think a jacket would hurt anything. It is a thin, woven material with a satin look. It also has the same colored lace going down the lapels. The ruched sleeves are great for this weather because it allows you stay cool, along with the thin material.





I wore my lace peplum top, also from Torrid. It is strapless and hits in the right spot! I wanted to add a little pattern to my outfit, also the lace could be considered a pattern. I wanted to add other colors. I paired a thin, silver and black leopard belt. For my accessories, I wore my favorite chunky silver necklace and my flower studs from Forever 21. They're small but they bring out the glam in any outfit. For shoes, I wore my simple black flats from Torrid. Working in retail, you can't wear those heels all the time!!
