Ice-Cream Truck

Hey everyone--

Let's face it, one of the best parts of childhood is the neighborhood ice-cream truck. Whenever I heard the music, I had to run out after it and get a treat! Now that I can no longer eat ice-cream, it's a little more challenging to get my fix, but I can always enjoy a good ice-cream print! This tee is sooo cute I want to wear it all year round, but I wanted to show it to y'all before summer was over!

Have a sweet day!

Cotton Candy Stand

Hey everyone--

For this post, I've collaborated with Dresslink, an online fashion retailer! They have a great selection of two of my favorite trends for summer:

1. Matching Two-Piece Sets

& 2. Retro Frames 

(I seriously love these sunglasses, they're so fun! :D :D :D And what a great shade of pink!)

Snag them for yourself on their site, everything is sooo affordable! Now, they're located outside of the US, but the shipping time was not bad at all, I was really happy with it! .. Took about 3 weeks to arrive!

Also, these are my favorite earrings everrr. I've been waiting to show them off on the blog for awhile now. They look and feel like real cotton candy. They're fuzzy and tiny and so realistic looking. I love 'em!

Have a sweet day!

Thankful 4.9

Hey everyone--

I am so thankful for those little unexpected moments of happiness in life.

 Like when a bad day ends in joyful conversation, or when you realize a shrub that has been bare all winter is now a blooming rose bush! I have beautiful roses outside of my apartment that I've been enjoying on my way in and out. They just showed up one day, like most good things do. I cherish those surprises and tiny joys.

What are you thankful for this week?

Hey friends--

It has been a rough couple of weeks here lately. Thank you, thank you to all who have sent well wishes! 

Brrrr it's also been so cold in my little corner of the world. I have to layer up every morning before leaving the house. I love finding cozy pieces like this cape/poncho that makes bundling up look a little cuter. Plus it makes me feel like I'm wearing a blanket all day & I am A-okay with that.

Stay warm everyone!

Discount Glasses Collaboration

Hey everyone--

I was so excited when I got asked to collaborate with Discount Glasses. I'm a sucker for a cat-eye frame and I have pretty poor vision. I usually wear contacts, but I always need a good pair of chic glasses to wear on the days my eyes need a break or my look needs an update! These cat-eye glasses had such a great shape and frame. They're very fashionable and I feel like I could throw them on with any outfit and they would give it a quirky charm. As for sunnies, I believe that they are one statement accessory that can really transform a look! These cat-eye sunglasses made me feel so glamorous. They have that certain Grace Kelly appeal that makes me swoon. While wearing them, I felt as if I should have more exquisite plans than homework and errands. However any day that I can spend taking pictures with my mom, spending time with my loved ones and snuggling my pug trump the most fancy of days. 

Have you guys of heard of Discount Glasses? They are currently running a Columbus campaign, so there is no better time to buy from them! They have one goal: to personally give customers high-quality stylish eye-wear at low prices. They are an online retailer specializing in trendy eye-wear at affordable prices. 

All of their orders come with free shipping and returns and a 365 day money back guarantee! ALL orders, that's a pretty nice set up! You can try them out without any risks.  It was such a pleasure to work them! I got my frames so fast and they both came in pretty and sturdy cases. I have only the best things to say about them.. loved the frames.. loved the service!

Happy eye-wear friends!

Those Black Flowers

Hey guys--

Sooooo it's been forever! I hate that I had to take such a long blogging break, but I am planning on getting everything back up and running! & I have a lot of new projects coming with the new year! I'm very very excited! 

So here is a Debs post getting up very late. This black floral kimono has by far been my most favorite kimono! I also love this black slip dress because it is worn well in any season. I accessorized with  black booties and a large camel satchel. This bag is super great too, because it can actually hold everything I need!

Baydian Collaboration (Summer 2014)

Hey everyone--

Today, I am featuring Baydian Scarves! Baydian is a company that sells gorgeous, statement making scarves. My friend Tamara Holder is the designer and owner of Baydian, LLC. She is from the beautiful Caribbean island of Barbados and she moved to Columbus, Ohio in 2006. Her mission is to provide a selection of items that express her Carribean heritage and allow you to make your own peraonal fashion statement.

I had so much fun working with Tamara and showing off these vibrant scarves. She is so creative, I never knew there were so many ways to wear a scarf. Check out the Baydian website and blog to learn how to tie your scarf in a unique way. The bow head wrap is my absolute favorite! 

These two looks are really great for transitioning into fall. Tamara and me love bright colors and I've been trying to wear my brights before fall officially arrives.

Be sure to check out the rest of her scarves and stay tuned for my fall collaboration with Baydian! Coming in the next couple of weeks!

Happy shopping all!
