Facebook Friday: Hilary & Kerry

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! I am so happy to see this day come---I have had one hack of a week! I hope you all have had a great week :-)

This week, I focused on Hilary Duff & Kerry Washington for FBF (click on pics for the original links). I love Hilary's look because it is so simple and basic, yet chic at the same time. I did a 2 part look with her pic as an inspiration because I can see me wearing this look A LOT this summer. I am a huge fan of skinny jeans, over-sized tops, and (comfy/sensible) heels. I intend to recreate both of her inspired looks ASAP!

Then we have Kerry...she is the epitome of class (in my opinion). She rocked this leather skirt and I love her top. To recreate her look, I though of something funky and different. So, I decided to pick leather shorts instead of the skirt. I love the look and I can see a lot of my blogger friends possible wearing an outfit like this.

SO, what's your fave??? Enjoy the pics and have a blessed day!!!

CapFABB Style Challenge: Leather

TGIF!!! I hope the week has been good to you all.

I recently joined CapFABB (Capital Area Fashion & Beauty Bloggers) as a way to network with bloggers in the area. Check out the challenge post here and be sure to check the page to see how others decided to participate in the challenge. It's been fun reading and responding to emails.

A few days ago, we were emailed about a fashion challenge focusing on leather. The first thing I thought of was wearing one of my leather jackets. I am a sucker for a nice leather jacket. So today, I wore my purple one; compliments of my mother ;-) I asked if she knew where she got it from but, she couldn't remember. Nonetheless, its a perfect piece and it is SO comfortable. I thought it was going to be too big at first, but once I tried it on, I didn't want to take it off! I love the way it flares at the waist. 

I didn't have a photographer at the time so I had to rely on my phone, while in the dressing room at Marshall's, LOL. Hope its clear enough for you!

Take care and enjoy the rest of your Friday!
