Hey Dolls!
Have you noticed that sports luxe or "elevated sports" seems to be a huge trend on the fashion scene of late? About two years ago the trend really started picking up momentum and this year saw a major break through especially on the S/S15 runways including from Topshop, Burberry and Rag & Bone. The most striking example and certainly the talk of the town at the moment however would have to be the Alexander Wang x H&M collaboration that impressively marries sports wear with all sorts of edgy appeal. I dont know about you all but i cant wait to get my hands on that collection on November 6th!

In the mean time, I wanted to style my own sports luxe look! Katy Perry was recently announced as the 2015 Super Bowl half time show performer which has pretty much taken over headlines; so, I was inspired to use this year's winners, The Seattle Seahawks jersey as the focal point for my look. I'm all about keeping the look chic so I opted for the platinum jersey as oppose to their standard blue one. That's why I love this Fanatics jersey shop by the way, there are so many jerseys to choose from; new, vintage and limited editions- authentic and replicas! So even if you're not a Seahawks fan, you will most likely find your favorite team's jersey there too, and in variations!

GAME DAY!

Before Breast Cancer Awareness month passed I wanted to do a tribute post. That's when I realized I didn't own one pink item. I love black clothes, occasionally I will purchase something with colour but bright pink is really never an option for me. I do have a pastel pink top and cardigan but those dont really count as they look more neutral than actually pink. Anyhow, two years ago my aunt Pat gave me these Love Label pumps with pink rosebud details and I have NEVER worn them. Yes, TWO YEARS and never once been worn! Lol. This cause (Breast Cancer Awareness) presented an opportune time to break them out.

Hey dolls,
It's October which means the spirit of Halloween is in the air. I was inspired to do a post for persons who want to have a little pre-Halloween fun wearing "everyday" items without looking too "costumey". In Jamaica, Halloween isn't a national fanfare as it is in the states so unless I attend a private party or something along those lines these items are the closest I'll get to playing dress up. I've selected a few conversation pieces that I hope you find equally fascinating as I do!

Halloween Inspired For Everyday Chic

Heyah dolls! I had to share with you all this awesome purchase I made just a few days ago! I havent even received it yet (still in transit) and all I can think about is how I'm going to style it! It happened last week when I was searching online for some reasonably priced flats (of decent quality) and figured H&M would be my best bet. While I was lucky enough to find some cute casual ones, my luck ran out when it came to sizing. Since I was there anyhow I decided to continue browsing the site. With absolutely no intentions of making a purchase whatsoever (apart from flats) I scanned through and thats when this gem decided to say hello!

Happy October and welcome to my favorite blogpost thus far!! I cannot believe it's already a new month- seriously where did time go?  To be honest, I'm kinda happy. September sucked *face palm*.... you remember that song by Green Day that goes "wake me up when September ends" sadly that's exactly how I felt ALL MONTH. On the bright side -I'm excited about the new month, ready to start fresh and hopefully kick some ass in my new pursuits! I do wish you all the best of luck and all the richest blessings for this October as well (:
