I must say they are quite accurate.

Your Signature Style is: Understated Elegance

Taste may be acquired for most people, but you've always had it. You just know when something works. Whether it's the way you dress or the way you entertain, you're comfortable with who you are and it shows. You work quietly at doing things well and are never satisfied until you get it "right". The first question you ask when you choose something is "how well is it made?" Your friends think you're a perfectionist. Is there anything wrong with that? Not in your world.v

Got Mint?

Good Wednesday to all,



I just want to introduce you all to Mint.com!! I'm a believer in budgeting and having things in your household in order. A true fashionista is smart, savvy and of course ridiculously good looking (lol).Now it can be hard to keep track of all your expenses and cashflow so it's INSANELY great news that there's a service out there that does it ALL for you and looks flawless doing it.

When you register you add in all your credit/ debit card accounts and it will securely connect with your bank to obtain all your transactions. Mint works with over 2700 banks which ensures that nearly all of us will be covered. After that it will update your balance everyday so you will always have an accurate account of what financial state you're in.



PLUS it automatically categorizes your expenses so you can see EXACTLY how much is going into what category! I LOVE and hated this feature! Of course the biggest expense was shopping and it put it in perspective. Now I have budgets set up and Mint will automatically send me an email and text to let me know if I went over. Every Friday I get a fresh statement.. woo wee.



There's lovely pie charts, graphs and you can compare your expenditures to the national or a particular city average. (My shopping expenditures were still higher than the average --lol--sadness--lol).



I just HIGHLY recommend doing this!! It is such an eye opener and you can save money while at it. Mint will search for savings for you and so much more! So what do you have to lose?? It's free!!

So Get Minty yall!!

HAPPY MONDAY!!

Some Outfits to Sizzle your Monday up, EnJOY!! My ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far!

P.S: Iced Caramel Coffee @ McDonalds ROCKS!! (can't believe it but it's true and CHEAP--LOVE IT)

Update

Spring Update

Wow, I haven't posted in a HOT minute. With the assistance of Polyvore I've made different sets of must-have accessories and clothing but haven't posted them yet. Guess this is what senior year in college does to you. I've forgotten to post a lot of cute stuff that I've seen lately.

I've been in a Safari\Ethnic mood for awhile so I rounded up a bunch of my fave accessories. Some are cheap and others more high end.



Details can be found by just clicking on the arrangement.

Also there has been some CRAZY sales going on at E.L.F. cosmetics. This cosmetics brand comes highly recommended by many well-known magazines and is used by different celebrities. Since they have been acquired by a MAJOR department store their name will change on the product. Hence a HUGE BLOWOUT on all their cosmetics with the name E.L.F. on it. EVERYTHING is $1 DOLLAR!! Their make-up, brushes, top-notch nail polish and so much more (only bath & mineral make-up is priced a bit higher). E.L.F. also provides you with TONS of coupons so keep a lookout!!


Finally I leave you with one of my favorite concoctions of clothes called "U-Ropa" which encompasses a punky European yet classy feel. Hope you like it!

Spring Starters

Spring is nearly upon us, and I want to leave you with some cute & affordable pieces to jump start
your wardrobe.

Remember to keep a look out for waterpaint style print, safari prints/themes and some high heels!
