OOTD: RAIN RAIN GO AWAY!!!

It has been a soggy few weeks in NYC.  The cloud cover has been over us for a few days with very little days of sunshine.  BUT....don't think that has stop this stylista!!!
My latest outfit comes from Eloquii and their fab ruffle sleeve jacket. 

My photographer and I had to wait of the rain to stop but through her "genius eye" she caught some great shots of me.

I am so in love with the jacket and its been sold out in most size but check out some other Eloquii Jackets that are just as amazing.

The best think I learned through this is to not let anything stop what you want to do.  Yes it was raining but we made a conscious decision to get out in the rain and through that I got some amazing photos.  I encourage all my stylistas to get up and do what you need to do to better your life.

OOTD: SPRING FLORAL & LACE

Something about floral and lace that always makes my day.  I don't know what it is but when I wear this lace top I end up having a really good time!!! There were so many laughs and giggles in between photos and I ended up having a good time and some really good shots. 

While shooting this outfit with my friend and photographer I realized why I loved this outfit so much. Its the perfect combination of sweet and sexy.  The lace top covers but is see through enough that I feel sexy in it. I could have easily worn this outfit with out the jacket but the cut of it is so great it skims over my body and creates a great silhouette.

BANDELETTES & ALL BLACK EVERYTHING

Founders of Bandelettes with Ashley N. Tipton

Recently I was invited to the launch of the Bandelettes event hosted by Ashley Nell Tipton.
Bantelettes is the simple accessory for the solution to thigh chafing.  Chafing is experience by most women, regardless of size.  It is an embarrassing subject to talk about but thanks to the founders of Bandelettes their is a simple and pretty solution to the problem.

The product is a lace or microfiber band with a silicone backing to prevent rolling down.  It goes around the thigh to protect the thighs from rubbing together.  They look good under dresses and even short pants.  I spoke about them in my "Way to prevent Chafing" post last year and purchase a few myself.

The launch was to introduce a new product in their line, the Bandelettes short.  Instead of  just fabric band this is a full short pants you can pull on to protect more of you thighs from chafing.  I am super SUPER excited about this new product and cant wait for it to be available.  Will post a link once the shorts are made available. 

The view from the roof top was amazing.  I had to snap a photo or two of myself.  It was a bit cooler but for me it was just the right temperature.  This all black everything is a staple look for NYC.  I love being in all black so this Bomber Jacket is an excellent add to my closet.  Expect to see more of it very soon.  

Got a chance to chit chat with Ashley while she was in NYC hosting this event.  She is just the same as she was before her Project Runway Win.  We talked about everything under the sun!!! Was so nice to reconnect with her.  Love her!!!

Founders and Models having a great time in front of the step and repeate

Signature Drink was AMAZING!!!

Thanks so much to Bandelettes for inviting me to this event.  I have a great time and love the new lace shorts in their line.  To see more from this like click HERE

OOTD: LEATHER FLOWER POWER

BACK ON A BROOKLYN ROOF TOP were rockin' leather and jeans.  This floral embroidered jacket from the Ashley N. Tipton collection was everything a girl could as for.  It is right on trend with floral embroidery and the studded lapel gave it  the right amount of edge. 

I wanted the jacked to stand out so I wore a simple white long line tee and slim fit jeans.  The shirt is long in length but have high slits.  I can see me wearing this top for many more seasons to come.  In order t add some color, I added a skinny yellow belt and pink sandals to match the colors in the jacket but really I just let the jacket shine!!! That is the key to a great outfit
