I had a day off and was going to see my grandparents who were in the country visiting. I wanted to try something different with my hair, I had seen crowns on a high bun and I had a peacock hairpiece my husband had given me a while back, but I had never worn. This was my moment and it worked out perfectly, with an all jean look and new makeup look.

  Jean shirt from Target, Bongo jeans from Sears as well as the booties and handbag from dd's discount.

 

  Peacock crown was part of a set that included necklace and earrings from Wish, earrings were a gift from Colombia, pearl necklaces from Miss A and if you can see the Swarovski and pearl bracelet from Burlington Coat Factory.

 

  The new makeup look was doing simple and natural eyeshadow with a winged liner and a red lip, but the one thing that made the biggest difference to my complexion was adding Tarte Radiance Drops, my skin has never looked so smooth and amazing. Sadly I only have a sample size I got with Sephora points. I'm going to have to do some saving to get the full size, for now it has only been used for special occasions, though all I do is work these days.

I wanted to use the silver eyeshadow and recreate the look I did for New Year's Eve, but now since I had more experience and practice, it would turn out better and it did. To continue with the silver and glitter theme, I put on my silver glam earrings and statement necklace as well as my new silver bow belt.

Merona shirt from Target, high waisted fabric shorts were a gift, earrings from Miss A, belt, sandals and necklace from Rainbow.

Excuse the mess, I was in the process of very early spring cleaning and major organizing.

I used a few new products here since that look, but still using the Huda Beauty obsessions palette in smokey, primer, setting powder and highlighter from Miss A, foundation Revlon Colorstay in shade 320, Kat Von D Lock It concealer in medium 19 cool, brows are Anastasia Beverly Hills brow pomade in taupe, lashes were

It was Thanksgiving this past year and I of courser wanted to dress up. We ended up not doing anything or going anywhere, since my in-laws were out of town. I pretty much just dressed up for the photo op, it's a skirt I really love and only wore it for my reception outfit on my wedding day, mind you, I was thinner when I first bought this skirt and now it won't zip up all the way. It was either getting the size small or no skirt, I chose to buy it, the pockets are an extra bonus. I'm hoping to add more skirts like this to my wardrobe, more grown up.

High waisted skirt from Rainbow, black top was a gift with a label from Merona, which is a Target brand and heels were also a gift, a very tall gift.

Necklace from Forever 21, the only piece of jewelry I put on for the outfit.

My manicure for the week, been finding some nice glue ons from the Dollar store.

These are collection of some head shots I took throughout the year that weren't full outfit shots, but still deserved a mention. It was still a chilly day for this first outfit and I wore an Anne Klein 3/4 sleeve top with some faux pearls from Miss A and JCPenney floppy hat. 

A peplum top gifted from a friend with new pearl necklaces and matte lip gloss from Miss A.

Another peplum for this one that was also a gift, necklace from Rainbow, earrings from Miss A and Target watch.

Wore one of my shirts from Nicaragua, wore my pearls from Miss A, earrings were a gift from my uncle from a flea market and my target watch.

This would be my last casual Friday look of the year at the orthopedic office and my last day at that job, since things would be slow the following year. I would be called upon when they needed me, so for now it would just be the Publix job. Again it was a chilly day, so I wore another 3/4 sleeve top with tights and booties.

Black button up shirt from Rainbow, striped white and gold cupcake skirt also from Rainbow, opaque tights from Target, booties from Sears and red Kenneth Cole Reaction handbag from Ross.

Earrings from Claire's, necklace from Forever 21, Zales engagement ring, Target watch with bracelets from Miss A and bracelet on other wrist from Burlington Coat Factory.

It was the holiday season, so I did my nails in red and one accent nail.

Last winter it was a chilly day in Miami and a day off from work. Put on my 3/4 sleeve jean shirt with my leggings and my favorite booties along with my pearls. 

Jean button up shirt from Target, leggings, booties from Sears and blue handbag from DD's Discount.

Target watch, bracelets from Miss A, earrings from Forever 21 and pearl necklace from no more rack, which no longer exists, but I've seen similar deals on Groupon.

This casual Friday I decided to wear my black dress, which I hadn't worn in a long time, it was one I had bought during the time I was living in NYC. For a classier look, I paired it with pearls and my cardigan, for a pop of color was my red handbag. This was during the month of November of last year.

Black dress is Merona brand from Target, cardigan from H&M, booties from Sears and red handbag from Kenneth Cole Reaction from Ross. The belt came from a dress I bought at Marshall's.

I accidentally saved this picture with a bubbles filter on my phone, so I left it that way.

Long pearl necklace I put around my neck three times is from a site that no longer exists, which is sad because they had really good deals, earrings I made, pearl bracelets from Miss A, watch from Target, middle promise ring from Walmart and others from Ross, bracelet on other wrist from Burlington Coat Factory. At this point I was already engaged, but the ring hadn't arrived yet from Zales website.

For another casual Friday at work, I went with a button up jean shirt paired with a pencil skirt to dress it up and make it more professional. This was back when I was still thinner, now that I've gained some weight, healthy weight, the skirt doesn't quite fit me the way it does in these pictures. I take advantage that the weather is not as hot and I wear what I can for fall.

This was in October and I had my fall and Halloween decorations up as you can see and this time we had more furniture to fill the living room like a dinning table and a sofa. The jean shirt is from Target, the pencil skirt I had bought brand new at Goodwill years ago and booties from Sears.

My favorite necklace from Forever 21, Miss A earrings that are dead now, wood bracelet from Nicaragua, stainless steel bracelet was a gift and pearl bracelet also from Miss A.

On the other wrist I was wearing my Target watch and a blue bracelet from Miss A...yes I do love stuff from that site, I've bought new beauty products from there, which I am in love with and will post on them in the coming future. shopmissa.com
