All Hail McQueen

The Met Gala aka the Costume Gala aka the 2nd most highly anticipated fashion event in NYC after New York Fashion Week went on last night so its only necessary that I do a quick post on my favorite looks of the night. This year they honored the late fashion genius Alexander McQueen and most people came in his designs. There were a ton of HAUTES as you will see below and there were a ton of NOTs (wont be posting those for the sake of keeping my blog with cute clothes).

Every year it is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC and if you are ever in the city this museum is one of my absolute faves next to MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). Pretty surprising considering I am obsessed with Impressionism but these two museums just speak to me. Ahh just talking about it makes me want to book a ticket to NYC just to spend the day there... SIGH!!!

Take a look at the 3 outfits below and tell me what you think:

Lace up Military...

Well, I didn't get to take a bite out of the Big Apple as I wanted and I am still VERY SALTY about it. But everything happens for a reason, whatever it is, I am trying to remember that. I dont have much today this time around, like I said still kinda salty lol.....
I decided to wear my lace up front black t shirt dress from ASOS with flats and a military green jacket. I dont care what happens in trends, I LOVE MILITARY! lol (that's my type of patriotism)

Enjoy the pics and for my sports fans out there.... #HEAT... GO MIAMI HEAT!!!!!

Jacket: TJ Maxx, Dress: ASOS, Flats: gifted, Bag: Aldo

Sunnies: Kenneth Cole

Versatile Blogger Award

I was honored to receive the Versatile Blogger Award from Monroe Steele  and I am going to forward this on to whom I feel deserves it as well. Thank you so much again!!!

Below are 7 facts about me as instructed to do when presented with this award :)

7 Facts About Me:




1. I grew up playing sports: Tennis, Basketball, Soccer, Volleyball, Martial Arts and I play the piano. I’ve worn several music awards for piano at various competitions while I was living in Michigan.

2. I am DEATHLY afraid of spiders, snakes, frogs and centipedes (random I know)

3. I won’t eat anything blue.. it used to be purple too but I am becoming a little more lenient on that

4. I have 3 tattoos: 1 on my lower back but not in the tramp stamp location, one on my wrist, and one on my right rib that reads “Que Dieu te Prtoege” in my Grandmother’s handwriting and I plan on getting 2 more.

5. I am a hopeless and I mean HOPELESS romantic. I really believe in love and hope that it eventually believes in me. Lol.

6. I didn’t learn English until I was 8 years old, French is my first language.

7. I was a cheerleader for 2 weeks (until my mom said “oh no to the short skirts”) and in that 2 weeks my coach pushed me down while I was attempting to do the splits and I have been able to do them ever since… I think I’m permanently torn or something lol
