Black Diamond LOVE

Black Diamonds Glisten in the Sun...

They are truly hard to find.

Rare and Dark...But Costly and Beautiful.

Like a Rock.  My Feet will Not be Moved.

In the Heat of the Day.

I Lean to Rest and Take a Break.

Yet My Positioning is Sure.
Secure as the Foundation of the Earth I Stand.

World Wide LOVE!

 The World's Behind Me...

 

 

LOVE is Written across My Heart!

 

 

Bursting Forth as LIGHT...

 

Reaching the Darkest Regions with LIFE...

 

 Now...that's LOVE.

Betsey Johnson at NYFW Spring 2014

I had to laugh when I saw Betsey Johnson's Spring 2014 Line.  I looovvveeed it!  And here are a few of my picks!  It was really fun (as always), very pink and she exhausted two of my fave cuts- the A line and the Pencil skirt, which I love because they fit me perfectly every time! 

 

The Boldness, The Pink Hair, Mixed with the Modest, the Simple.

 

Gotta LUV it!

Oh, and...don't forget the silver/blue lipstick.  Can't go home without it!  Right?!  Lol

 

Some of this was clearly inspired by a Vintage 1950s look- classic meets roaring art!

The Gypsy Skirt & Bohemian Look

Fall is coming up and cool weather will be upon us sooner than later!  Many times I am asked how to wear skirts when its warm outside.  One great addition to your wardrobe is the Gypsy Skirt, which can also be worn in layers with tights and boots underneath.

A flashback to Alexis Mabel’s NYFW 2012 Line reveals the warmth and beauty of a Gypsy Skirt:

 

 

Gypsy Skirts are A Line skirts with layered hems, much of the focus veers towards one’s hips when wearing this type of skirt:

How to Rock It!

 

Pull the whole look together like this:

What makes this model’s look?  The head wrap, the bangles, the smoky eyes, layered necklaces, colorful florals and a mixture of fun patterns.  This is called a Bohemian or Boho Look!

Imagine wearing this model’s look with a gypsy skirt!  Now you have a head turning ensemble everywhere you go…And a fun youthful feel.

 

But you could also simplify the look with a plain black tshirt, so you don’t overdo it.

 

Okay, one more just for fun:
