Recently I was on the local lifestyles show, Your Life A to Z, talking about the “Must Haves” in your closet!

All of my clothing pieces were from Clothes Minded Boutique in Phoenix and my accessories were from Royal Bowtique! Hope you enjoy the video!
Happy Saturday and Style On Ladies!

Did a little shopping this week and over the weekend and wanted to show you some of my clothing and accessory finds! I went shopping at a couple of boutiques, Tempe Marketplace and JcPenny! Yes, it’s a pretty wide variety of places; but if something sparks my eye…I have to get it and if it is a great deal…then I have to get 2 (one for me and one for a friend).
I have been asked by some readers to show one piece of clothing turned into multiple looks. So I decided to show you a recent purchase of a nude top that I spoke about in my past blog from Clothes Minded Boutique in Phoenix. I love this top because it looks extremely expensive looking but not expensive in cost; this beautiful top was $39 and I am going to show you different ways to wear this top for day and night!
I love this look because it can work during the day with leopard flats and casual black leggings and then be transformed for night wear with black stiletto heels and chunky gold jewelry.
Where I got this look:
– Nude Top, Clothes Minded $39
– Black Button Up Leggings, Juicy Couture $198
– Tear Drop Gold Earrings, Muse Apparel Boutique $18
– Gold Mesh Bangle Bracelet, Wet Seal $10
– Sunglasses, Ray Ban $145
– Gold Watch, Michael Kors $250
– Leopard Pointed Flats, Wet Seal $14.99
I am always looking for fun ways to dress for work because there are only so many suits and dresses I can wear to the office before I get bored! My new nude top inspired me to put together this work look today! I paired it with a bright green pencil skirt that gives the outfit the “POP” it needs to stand out! Another color that would look great with this top is plum purple, turquoise and even a bright mandarin orange color! I also paired this look with a motorcycle jacket to add a fun layering piece; you can even add a fitted black blazer or a cropped denim jacket with this look!
Where I got this look:
– Nude Top, Clothes Minded $39
– Green Pencil Skirt, Express $59.90
– Motorcycle Jacket, Express $99.00
– Gold and Gunmetal Earrings, Guess By Marciano $68
– Silver Watch, Michael Kors $275
– Snake Print Shoes, Gianni Bini $ 120

During the last couple of weeks I have had the honor of working with Phoenix Fashion Week on the MIM Rocks Fashion Show. Phoenix Fashion Week chose the top 5 stylists (shown above) in Arizona and gave us the challenge of styling 14 models, choosing the music, make-up and hair to go with our Spring theme.

Her boutique has a wide variety of local designer collections that I will be using in the show! Kim and I went over prints and colors that would coordinate well with the idea I was shooting for in my head.
This past Wednesday I was interviewed by Lauren Pfingstag, with Phoenix Fashion Week for the show, I was asked about the collection, what my inspirations were behind my looks and what to expect on the runway! Above, is the outfit I wore for the interview and below is where I bought my pieces from!

March Madness is in full effect! During the first week of March I celebrated my 2 Year Wedding Anniversary to the man of my dreams in Maui and as soon as I got back, I was asked by Phoenix Fashion Week to be a part of their “MIM Rocks Fashion Show,” featuring Top Stylists in Arizona. I am so very honored to be apart of such a prestigious and amazing 4th annual fashion show!
Phoenix Fashion Week’s mission is to bridge talented, well established and emerging fashion designers to buyers from around the globe! Phoenix Fashion Week was established in 2005 by a team of Arizona based industry professionals. They are also the fastest growing metropolitan area in the United States.
What’s truly exciting to me is that I have been going to events put on by Phoenix Fashion Week for over 2 years now and to now be working with them is truly a honor. :)….sorry I am starting to get a little corny!
Phoenix Fashion Week teamed me up with Clothes Minded Boutique for the fashion show and I am so very excited to work with them! I cannot wait to meet with owner Kim Kendall and pull all of the looks for the show March 29th!
