a quickie.

iamsorrrrrry i haven't posted in ages. what's going on with your pal charlie?
iam feeling a bit under the weather. iam not sure if iam actually sick or if its my back and forth mood just taking over my life but iam here and iam back. 
i still have to post my fashion's greatest frenemy part 2 and update part 1 with my outfit of the day but since iam here for a quickie update i wanted to share something i found hiding at my local TJ Maxx.



a beautiful royal blue suede Fendi side bag with gold accents. 
WHAT?!
i know. and no, i didn't buy it. 
there was a great discount but i can't be rolling out the dough like that.
 if you hear what iam saying ladies, holla. 
but it reminded me of another Fendi i came across a couple years back at TJ Maxx as well.


it was a true beauty. 
still is, now that i'm revisiting my photo archives.
and both came with authentication cards.
i also spotted some Gucci boots as well.
they weren't the cutest my fave so i didn't snap a photo. 
so riddle me this, have you all been finding these higher up brands at your TJ Maxx's and such stores?

ps-sorry for the bad quality photos. camera phone. happy hunting!

fashion's greatest frenemy.



what's up with the weather?

getting dressed this morning was weird. 
i pranced around my room in my boy shorts before settling on the right outfit (a picture of which i will update you all with soon). 
a bit nippy, just like a few days back?
or maybe on the warmer with a tinge of humid like yesterday?
and then i remembered that i had a package coming from f21, so i went to the front door to check. 
and happy me, there it was. sitting outside with the latest inStyle perched prettily on top. 
and lucky me, i got to feel the weather settle into my skin. 
after ripping open the box i settled on an outfit. 
the perfect blazer was inside and it was begging me to wear it.
it definitely got warmer by the time i left for work but my outfit was light enough for the gentle warmth and warm enough for the light cool settling in by the time i left work.
it's cool now, at least.

what did you all wear today?
