Jumpsuit Jungle

 

 

jumpsuit: rainbow // sandals: Payless // necklace: gift // clutch: jun lee

This, my little chickens, is my first adventure in one-piece/jumpsuits/play suits land... Whatever you prefer to call them, I used to have a closed mind that onesies are for babies and completely unflattering. I wasn't completely convinced at first, but I've worn it a few times to positive reviews. What fun is personal style if you can't take any chances now and then. I'm excited to dress it up for night out soon with wedges. You can't really tell from the pictures, but it's a linen type material, perfect for continuing in to the summer months. The wide legs were the selling point.

Rompers, however, I'm not completely sold on.

 

Baby steps.

 

 

Floral Fridays

dress: american rag // wedges: payless // clutch: jun lee (local) // bracelet: gift

We made it folks! FRIDAY, FRIDAY, FRIDAY! And it surely is a celebrated accomplishment here at M of M, because I am on vacation starting tomorrow!  I only mentioned it a few hundred million a few times but we are hitting the road to Mardi Gras.  I'm focusing on hydrating and Vitamin C intake whilst twirling like a silly girl in this floral dress.  Something about a good flower pattern and ruffles makes me act nine years old.  February, I won't miss you too much and I'm honestly glad you're over.  I'm mad about March and all the madness it has to offer me.  See you next month, my little chickens! 

eShakti Product Review

When I was contacted by eShakti to review a product from their online store, I was more than thrilled to scour the pages and pages of their wonderful items.  Upon visiting, I was sold by the fact that the eShakti offers CUSTOM clothes ALL available in sizes 0-26w. 

At eShakti they believe that:

  "One size does not fit all and all sizes are not created equal."

 HOW EMPOWERING! In addition to that gloriousness, they offer customizations to fit YOUR body!   Fashion should be for everyone, not just for my sample size gals.  Whether you are chest heavy or rockin' some trunk-age... you can order clothes made to fit your measurements.  We all know I am a tall chick and I prefer not to show everyone my goodies when I wear a dress.  I entered my height in the measurement form to ensure that my custom-made dress was perfecto! 

So you bet your candy apples, it was hard for me to pick an item to review.  I decided on this ruffle waterfall dress, because we all know how I feel about ruffles.

I got my package in the mail just about a week after ordering and FELL IN LOVE.

The fit is perfection & the custom length is juuuust right.

 The quality is excellent and this dress, and soon MORE eShakti items, will be living in my closet forrreeevvveeerrrr.  Be sure to check out all that eShakti has to offer you and YOUR body today.

I promise you will not be disappointed because after all- they design + you customize :)

easter eggs & coconut

I can't believe I spent my groundbreaking, milestone of my 100th post on Saturdaytalking on and on about bicycles and basketball.What a bummer.I will make up for it now... second thought... Don't hold me to that.

This is my Easter themed outfit, I didn't try too hard, but I admit I spotted this cardigan at Old Navy during their clearance extravaganza and it makes me sooooo happy.

So I did combine ruffles, florals, and pleats.

THE TRIFECTA!

Remember how I was raving about pleats and then ended up owning some?

This was a skirt I have owned since before I started college... thank you Isaac Mizrahi for your acclamation for elastic waistbands, you come in handy on holidays that center on deviled eggs and sugary treats. 

Also, to be honest... This cardigan was peeled off after these pictures because it is out of control hot and humid here, and I was melllllttttinnnngggg. It's going to be a rough summer.

Did you guys have the most wonderful Easter ever? 

We kinda mixed traditions today with margaritas (!!!!) for lunch, family dinner, 

and coconut cake.  

I hate coconut. 

 Does your family ever repeatedly ignore you when it comes to desserts? 

Oh, they knoooooow I don't like it.  That never stops them.

Meanie-heads.

Enjoy your Easter Monday, well I will... I don't have work or school today.

I'll be lounging and studying for Exam #1.

The countdowns are on:

graduation: 12 days!

royal wedding: FOUR DAYS!

my birthday: 44 days (okay, I'm a BIT ahead of myself here... but just so you know-- it's coming!)
