self proclaimed princess

My sister does not consider herself a princess by any means of the word, but she did mention how this dress made her feel like one. My sister had her National Honors Society induction ceremony last week, she chose to wear this gorgeous dress. It has beautiful, romantic detailing all over it.  



My mom gave my sister a little gift (the bracelet my sisters wearing) before we left the house. I wish I had taken a better picture of it. It's from a shop where my mom works. Check out their information and location here


The shoes are killer too.  The colors matched the dress very well but these shoes can definitely be paired with SO many outfits. Love them (wish we wore the same size!)  


I have an outfit post from this night too, hopefully it'll be up later this week!

ALSO! a BIG giveaway is going to be happening either later this week or early next week. Keep your eyes open you're not going to want to miss it!!

a little less conversation, little more action

Sorry it's been so long since I've posted! My work and home life have been a bit insane lately so that's sorta taken priority. I'm gonna try harder to post more frequently though! Hopefully you all will forgive me.

Anyway, I had my cousins communion last weekend and I figured it was the perfect event to wear my LC Lauren Conrad dress. I fell in love with the material, the silhouette and the color. It felt so effortless. I don't think the camera could really capture what it looked like in person but I tried!


My Romeo came out to visit while taking pictures haha

My sister was my photographer, thus the pictures outside! Do we like this background?


I have lots of events coming up! My sister is graduating high school and she was very active in school and sports so theres a ton of dinners for all sorts of things. The best part, all the fun dresses she and I get to wear to all the dinners! I'll try my best to photograph them all!

Hope everyone is enjoying the spring season! Summers almost here :)

Poll - Tight or no tights, that is the question


Thank you to everyone who voted in the heel height poll! The responses were very insightful! I never would have thought 3-3.5 would have won out but it did!
Personally, I wear all heel heights to work, as long as the shoe doesn’t have any sexy cutouts on it or isn’t too strappy.

I’ve realized my readers are awesome when it comes to style advice, which is why I’ve decided to do another poll! My cousin and I have been discussing the need for tights/stockings lately and can’t come to any good conclusion.  I live in New Jersey (right outside of the city) and she lives in Manhattan.  We have some crazy weather in April, May, and June and we need YOUR advice!
(I realize some offices require stockings to be worn at all times. If you work in one of these offices answer the poll on a personal level, not office dress code)

Spring has sprung

I really admire the ladies who can carve time out of their hectic days to post outfits every day with their beautiful photos.  Props to you all!
Unfortunately, I am not one of those ladies. I try to post as often as possible but most of the time I’m just so busy I can’t bring myself to stop, take some decent pictures, and write out a post that I’m proud of. 
Either way, here is my first post for spring! I love soft colors for spring, they’re so girly and flirty.  J



I particularly love this blazer, I saw it online and HAD to have it. The ruffles, the pink, just... YUM

        


I did wear flats. I know I know, this is supposed to be my blog about HEELS but sometimes a girls gotta wear flats! Especially if she may have overdone it at the gym the night before and felt her sore legs were going to give out in towering heels…… ;p




I can’t wait for the weather to warm up and to wear all my REAL spring cloths! What do you guys wear to feel fun and flirty in the spring time?

Poll: Heel Height

I've been considering purchasing these  in coral. I love the color and the shape but I started to feel iffy about the height of the heel.  I've seen heels listed at 4.5 inches that were actually 5 and others that were closer to 4.  This one inch can make a difference between being a work shoe and a fierce going out shoe!
That being said, I was curious, what is your favorite heel height (for work, play or both!)
