Where has the sun gone?

Hello Everyone,

Hope everyone is safe and sound after Sandy. The sun sure has been missing for the past week, and I find myself at home most of the time. I also just realized that I had an outfit post to share with you but never got a chance to actually post it. Here it is! As much as I do appreciate color, I always find my self running back to my comfort zone, which is black.

 

 Outfit Information: Jacket, Sweater, Necklace: Dynamite, Black Leggings: Urban Planet, Boots: Thrifted, Bag: Brought from someone, Watch: MK, Arm Candy: Various Stores

Enjoy, and Until Next Time,

Oxblood

Hello Everyone,

 So my favourite season is here, oh how I love Fall! I love the colors , the cooler weather, but most of all I love Fall fashion. I love layering items and Fall is the perfect weather for that. I also have been loving for awhile the colour oxblood. Now the colour is everywhere, which is just perfect for me.

So I brought this oxblood cotton maxi skirt a month ago, before the no shopping challenge. With the no shopping challenge I find myself trying to find different ways to wear a few different items differently. Adding a jacket or different accessories can really change up an outfit.

 You can go from biker chic, to classic sophisticate, to comfortable & causal as little as 1,2,3

Outfit Information: leather jacket: Guess, black collar shirt: thrifted, maxi skirt: Mode Star, ankle boots: Suzy Sher, Blazer: H&M, bag: Coach, Collar necklace: Little Burgundy

Until Next Time,

Goodbye Warmth and Hello to Cold

Hello Beauties and Gents,

I am back with another outfit post and many more to come. These pictures were taken two weekends back when the weather was still  bearable to wear a skirt in. This was my last attempt to inject some bright colours into the mix until I pulled out my fall palette.

 The top and skirt were thrifted. A big thank you, to my friend Abena who gifted me this skirt and 3 more. Check out her tumblr here .The foot wear was an expensive impulse buy at the beginning of the summer at a small boutique. I love them because their  made completely of leather including the soles, and they are really comfortable. However, no more impulsive crazy buying for me. 

Currently, I'm participating in a no more shopping ban for three months, this all started Friday( Sept. 21st). I realized after doing some cleaning and organizing of my closet that I had a lot of potential basic pieces to work with. I'm also a student who still has tuition hanging over my head, so paying that must come first. So anyone want to join me in this challenge? You have $20 break only if you really must buy something.

Anyways, enjoy and I shall be back soon.

Sincerely, Miss J

Let's Start Over

Hello everyone,

It's been a long time since I decided to venture onto my blog again. I liked blogging but with the major transitions that were happening in my life it made it very difficult to continue with it on a regular basis. So what are these major transitions that I speak of? Well I'm now a full time student in a graduate program and let me tell you, it's kicking my butt. The volume of reading that I have already did has been overwhelming, and it's only been like two weeks

 The outfit is simple and very fall inspired, and cost less than $40 minus the handbag. I got the dress at Zara last season on sale. The heels are thrifted. The dress also captures the hot trend of oxblood or burgundy  for the fall.

 The handbag is one of my favorite handbags and the few luxury items that I own. If you follow me, you may know that I love a bargain and love thrifting. However, when I saw this item 8 months ago, I had to have it. It has been sitting in my closet for awhile unfortunately. However, recently I have been wearing it months straight.

Anyways more to come stay tuned,

Sincerely Miss J

Alive and Well

Hey everyone, its been awhile since I sat down and blogged. Its not that I did not have anything to blog about, but it was the mere thought of sitting down for some time and blogging. However, I am  back because some people have been asking me where I have gone to.
Anyways, not much has been happening, same old stuff. I  have been working, and wokring on some other personal things  that  have been capturing most of my time. However, hoepfully I can take some time to blog.
Okay, on to some  important stuff. I have an outfit of the day post for you all, this is something I wore for church the other day. Nice and simple like I like it, so hopefully  you all enjoy it. 
I  really love this simple navy blue dress, its so easy to dress down or up. I  also really dig the shoes that I fell in love with because of how different they were.
