Colourful. Casual. Cool

Hey Yall, its been a while! Been such a busy week for me! Can't believe the month of march is already here! Anyways I've been fighting the urge to shop but with all these sales going on I find it almost impossible! I'm loving all that spring has to offer this year! 


What i'm wearing: BOD&CHRISTENSEN-jacket, BCBG-tank, H&M-clutch, G-Star-jeans, Converse-sneakers, Michael Kors-watch, OPI nail polish "fly" from -nicki minaj collection

I was cleaning out my closet a few days ago, and I came to the realization that I owned way too many trendy pieces! When you're a compulsive shopper such as myself, you tend to buy a lot of things for "liking" sakes! It does feel good to know that I didn't splurge on these pieces but at the same time I have a closet filled with outdated clothes! At this point do I stop wearing them, or do I find new ways to reinvent them? I know it might sound stupid to stop wearing clothes you once thought was the coolest, but trends come and go and no one wants to be seen wearing something that is not considered "fashionable" I think I've grown out of that brainwashed way of thinking!




My goal for this month and the year of 2012, is to limit the amount of trendy pieces that I buy! Classic pieces are always better investments in the end, like blazers, pencil skirts and form fitting dresses for a more clean and sophisticated silhouette! I am a very trendy person overall, but I think I need to find a balance of both classic and trendy! At the end of the day I still buy and wear what I like! Am I the only one who suffers with this problem? Took these pics a few days ago and didn't get to post them!



Enjoy the rest of your week guys! Stay Safe!!!
xoxo Ty

  6. Very LOVE THIS LOOK! I think the white converse make the look. It brings a casual carefree approach to the entire look. I also love the fact that you can throw a heel on and it changes the look completely.

    1. Yess! everyday i learn something new about my style and classic pieces seems to be what i'm drifting into! selling items that you dont wear anymore is a great way to purge out your closet! might do the same or find new wats to reinvent them!

  16. I prefer a more classic style with a mix of trends thrown in. It is always great when you can get the most out of your clothes no matter what. I usually try to buy things I know for sure I can rock at least two different ways.

    I love this outfit, especially the Chucks!
