Schutz Dupe

Hello, Everyone!!!.

 

As we all know, major designers set the trends of the fast fashion stores. Some trends catch on quicker than other, case in point the Juliana by Schutz although it is not a very expensive shoe, many retailers have duped these amazing shoes. When I saw these sandals at Target I immediately thought about the Juliana's, they are the perfect heels to wear at a summer wedding. For the wedding I paired these heels with a hybrid navy dress that showcases two current trends of the moment, the off the shoulder and one shoulder, it was the perfect match.

Adam Lippes for Target

 

Hello, Everyone !!!.

Come every fall season most women are looking for affordable ways to transition their summer wardrobe for the cooler temps ahead. Target has yet again made our lives easier with their buffalo plaid based collaboration with Adam Lippes. I can't wait for this collection to be released because I've been dying to add plaid to my existing wardrobe. The collection ranges $10 to $129 and it will be available in stores and online on September 27th. I have my eyes on the plaid shirtdress, heels and fringed poncho. 

Here is a sneak peak at the lookbook of Adam Lippes for Target.

Black Excellence

 

 

 

 

 

 Hello, Everyone!!!!

 

Today I wanted to show you some drugstore products that I've recently purchased from the brand Black Radiance. It is affordable makeup line that specifically caters to women of color. I discovered Black Radiance  a few months back when I was on the hunt for the perfect dupe to MAC Studio Fix Fluid foundation. I found the perfect match with Black Radiance Color Perfect Foundation in the color Butter Scotch and I've used it ever since. Its blends in very well and feels very light on my skin. I had such good luck with the foundation that I figured I will try out their other face products.

 

 

 

I started my new collection with the True Complexion Soft Focus Finishing Powder in Golden Almond, Artisan Color Baked Bronzer in Gingersnap, True Complexion Custom Concealer in Light/Medium and the Concealer Stick in Light. You can not beat the pricing either, everything was less than $7. I can't wait to test out these fabulous products.

Espadrilles Fiesta

(Photo Source)

Espadrilles are becoming the summer shoe of the season thanks to the release of the famous Chanel espadrilles back in 2013. It is true when they say , nothing is new under the sun. I remember wearing wearing a pair of nude lace up espadrilles to my kindergarten graduation, Yes I say KINDERGARTEN!!!!. Now I may not remember what I ate yesterday, but I do remember some of  my favorite childhood outfits, I only have room for fashion lol. Now I do not have the bank account to afford designer espadrilles but I can appreciate a good fashion dupe. I recently purchased two pairs of espadrilles from URBANOG website (as pictured below).

 

 

Leatherette Espadrilles ( Buy HERE & HERE)

 

 

Both pairs of shoes cost less than $40, you can't beat the price. I am patiently waiting for the mailman to deliver my package AKA my new babies. I can't wait to wear them!!!

 

 

 

 

Here are a few dupes for your shopping pleasure
