Thrifted, Gifted, and Borrowed

So I'm getting my Diva back, especially with the new hair and larger boobs, lol. I'm still not displayng my stomach proudly, like I should be. It's taking some getting used to. Someone told me to pose like this to hide it. I think it just makes me look like I have a bad back. You probably can't tell by this picture, but I actually lost 15 lbs. But I think it all went to my chest. This top and cardigan was thrifted from The Second Debut Goodwill store in Carytown Richmond. I got both of them for $5 each. Their sales are amazing.  

This is a ring that Boonie bought for me. Now don't trip, it was only $1.99 (really), but what it symbolizes is that nocturnal spirit of the owl, watching over the night. It was deep when he gave it to me, so don't laugh. I love it a lot and can you believe it hasn't turned on me yet!

My doctor would kick my ass if she knew I was still wearing heels while I'm pregnant. Under strict orders she asked me to stick to flats, but that lady doesn't know me like that. So every once in a while, I will sneak and wear my heels. I'm bad, I know. Boonie bought me these as well last year, said he wanted to see me in some tall boots. The man got what he wanted!

I love taking his stuff and making it look good on me! I don't own a watch, that will be changing soon. I always wanted one, but it never seemed practical. I never look at the watch and secretly... I can't tell time on analog watches, LOL. I can only read it if the time is like 12:00, 12:30, 5:00, 5:30, etc. Anyway, so what! I live in the year 2012 and everything is digital. I have a cell phone, and that's my excuse. Damn, ya'll are so mean!

Between being nauseous, tired, cranky, hungry, and horny.... I can't think straight. However, the gaol is to inspire you that through all that, You still can feel good inside and out... or at least look good while you feel like crap on the inside. Watch me as I grow and complain dolls. It's about to be a bumpy ride. xoxo

My Thanksgiving Animal Style & Unknown Gift

So on Thanksgiving, I decided to go along with the animal print trend and thrift a cheetah print dress from Goodwill Second Debut in carytown. I got the dress for $7, and it wasn't even on sale. I also bought this fabulous belt That i turned into a bib necklace for only $5. Can you believe this was a belt? OMG! I added a gold tone two finger ring I got for only $1.99 and my gold tone cuff that I bought for $2.50. The earrings were from the haul video I did for Diversity Thrift a couple of weeks ago and they only cost $0.50. I finished the look with a necktie as a belt, because little did I know I wasn't bloated that day (I was pregnant). And of course my favorite boots this season because I was opting to forgo the heels for a while.

 Look at me trying to profile with this belly, I'm such a Diva.

Happy Holidays!!

How I Styled My Man's Shirt

Since I'm pregnant now, it's getting harder to fit my regular clothes. I'm at that awkward stage, where you don't look pregnant (although my belly has gotten bigger) but just fat and bloated. I'm on this quest to make men's clothes look appealing on my figure. How do you think I did?

Urban Wool Turban Made From A Winter Scarf

I think this look makes me look older and more conservative, but this is the best thing for me when I need a touch up of color and don't feel like messing with the make-up. The glasses are courtesy of Regina's in RVA and the wool turban was created using one of my winter scarves. I told you, I make things work with little to no pennies, LOL. My blazer is a clearance item from Target and a self-created beaded necklace (that is hiding near my cleavage) was added to make this casual look a little more dressy.

I wasn't in the mood for lashes or makeup but I thanked two girls at fashon show rehearsal for their lovely compliments on my look. Goes to show you can radiate beauty without all that madness. Get 'em dolls, "F" Your Style!
