Steal My Style

Quite possibly one of my favorite transitional outfits. While out shopping, the colors of this blouse caught my eye, with it's electric yellow, blended with green, teal, and cobalt. Basically, it felt like a majestic mermaid. As I flipped it around, I saw it was open back and knew I already had a teal lace bralette that matched exceptionally perfect. The last added bonus was that it was at Macy's during their extra-bonus discounted, super huge savings "Back to School" sale, so the top cost me a mere $3. Paired with my black and white diamond print Candie's skirt, bow belt, and gold glitter smoking slippers, it was off to work I went.

Barbie-QT

Memorial Day Weekend.

I know. I know. You're super stoked to bring out the flowy-lightweight summer whites for this weekend's festivities-can't blame you after the horrific winter we've dealt with. Unfortunately, if you're anything like me (clumsy and spill-prone), light colors are always a daring decision on the daily, with straying mustard splatter written all over that little white dress. My foolproof fashion fix for the situation? Go with colored prints, patterns or show your patriotic side with the classic red, white and blue.

Whether your weekend plans include a backyard BBQ, lounging by the pool, heading to a Jazz festival (fun fact: the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend is International Jazz Day), or hell, even partaking in a hot dog eating contest, these infallible looks will have people saying, "Grill, you look good."
