Wish I Was Wearing: Suede Jacket

Queen Bee — Sat, 03 Sep 2011 04:58:07 +0000

Ladies, ladies, ladies. I found this fabulous (faux) suede jacket from Forever 21 for only $30! That’s the cost of a movie date: 2 tickets and some popcorn. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have the jacket!

What I Wish I Was Wearing Today

Sometimes mini dresses are just too mini for me. If you’re nervous about showing more than you intended, pair your mini dress with some pants and turn it into a tunic!

Never Too Old for Cartoons

Queen Bee — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 04:33:50 +0000

I admit it. I’m a grown woman and I still watch cartoons. In fact, I love cartoons! With Fall approaching, Forever 21 has released a line of long sleeved and hoodie tops to appease our inner child.

Do you still watch cartoons? Which is your favorite?

Class of 1965

Only a few more week or even days until school starts again! If you’ve already taken a US or World History course, you’ve probably learned that history is cyclical. It happens once, then it happens again and again. The same is true with fashion. Trends from one decade are out the next, only to be back in style a few years later. As the resurgence of the 80s craze dies down, the fun and fabulous 60s are upon us once again. In fact, stores like Peacocks have recently launched entire vintage-inspired collections featuring 60s fashion.

From peacocks.co.uk

Besides the bright colors and interesting shapes, one of the best things about 60s fashion is the fact that it is more appropriate for class and less likely to break your school’s dress code. Thick straps and high necklines will cover up any naughty bra straps, long shirts will hide your stomach, and low hemlines will be more likely to pass the fingertip test. I know, it can be a pain dressing around your school’s dress code, but these 60s fashions make it fun!

Fashionably Back to School

It’s approaching, my dears! Some of you only have a few weeks left until school starts up again. Are you excited or dreading it? Regardless, you must be excited about back to school shopping! With the cool Fall weather fast approaching, longer sleeves, layers, and rich dark colors are the way to go.

A Taste of Mango

Queen Bee — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 04:53:14 +0000

Mango was one of my favorite stores to shop at during my Junior year abroad in France. Since then, they’ve opened an online store for us Yankies so we can order their fab clothes here in the US. They recently released their Fall 2011 collection and, trust me, it doesn’t disappoint!

From mango.com

Thick jackets, warm tones, and layered tops seem to be the trend.

Wanted

Queen Bee — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 04:41:04 +0000

I’m generally content with my life. I appreciate what I have and am working toward achieving the rest. But every once in a while I’m like a little kid saying “I want it, I want it, I want it!”

First Day of School Fashion

Queen Bee — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 04:04:50 +0000

Yesterday was my very last first day of school! Here’s the outfit I decided to wear.

The cropped tee is from Forever 21, the tank is from Old Navy, the boyfriend pants are from Jolt, and the shoes are from Kenneth Cole. I’ve had that belt for about 10 years so I have no idea where it’s from!

I also brought my super cute and super huge Amber Pollard bag instead of my backpack. Trying to lose the backpack this year.

And as usual, I wore my collection of bangles.

What did/will you wear on the first day of school?

I’d love to see a pic! Send it to me at queenbee(at)prommafia.com and I’ll post it here!
