My Style: Blue Da Ba Dee

Happy Thursday, everyone!  The month is coming to an end, and to finish it fabulously, here is my fourth #CharlotteLook for January.  The ensemble consists of a paisley print, shift dress with lovely crochet detailing on the sleeves, over-the-knee socks, tall boots, and a black hat.  Along with the crochet detailing, the dress has a beautiful cut-out back and shoulder design.  I always love finding unique pieces to add to my wardrobe.  The look is perfect for the warmer weather we have been blessed with lately.  I can't wait till spring is officially here.  BTW, if you're a 90's baby, you will probably be singing the song Blue (Da Ba Dee) in your head for the next hour. . . Sorry.  haha  Hope you all have a wonderful Friday and weekend!  Xoxo, Shelly

My Style: Femme Fatale

Today's Look:  is all about being feminine yet fierce.  This outfit contrasts a dark black top, clean white skinny jeans, and bold gold flourishes.   To start the look off, I chose the long-sleeve, black top featuring the words "FEMME FATALE, LOVE POTION N◦9."  For those who don't know, the term femme fatale refers to an old literature/art archetype known for being a mysterious, desirable woman who seduces men into dangerous and sometimes deadly situations.  Obviously, I don't think of myself as a femme fatale, but it sure is fun to rock the edgy top.  To match the top, I chose tall, heeled boots that have a fierce black-with-gold-buckle design.  Since the top and boots make a sexy pair, I wanted light pants to contrast and add a special pop to the outfit.  I chose white skinny jeans.  To add a touch of the wild side, I wore a  gold necklace with a bedazzled, jaguar pendant.  Finishing off the look, I wore two gold and black bracelets, two rings, and black, stud earrings

Fashion Tip:  Tall heeled boots are a sexy fall essential.  They work great with skinny jeans, scarves, and peacoats.

My Style: Boho Babe

Today's Look:  is all about the beauty of bohemian inspired style.  To start the look off, I chose my loose, flowing, off-white blouse and lace skater skirt.  Even though the outfit hides the waist, the peek-a-boo of the legs makes up for it.  Since the top and skirt are monochromatic, I wanted to add color into the outfit through the accessories.  I chose an intricately woven, spiked necklace that has purples, pinks, and greens braided throughout it, and my patchwork backpack that I bought at a Guatemalan shop in Texas last summer.  Finishing off the look, I wore knee high socks with red and white striped tops that peered over my leather boots slightly, two off-white bracelets, two tarnished gold rings, and braided my hair.

Fashion Tip:  When wearing high boots with a skirt, remember to wear long socks.  They not only add to the outfit, but also make the boots more comfortable against your skin.  Below, I included a collage of boho items, as well as a link to get to them.
