In the Nude.

Crazy about being Nude? Well I have just rekindled my love affair for the nude. No not that kind of nude, NUDE SHOES of course! I am crazy obessed with them! I've had my Steve Madden nude flats for awhile now and I just had to break down and buy a new pair because I literally walked through my old flats! And let me tell you I am in a shoe envy! These are my favorite go to flats! I literally wear them with everything. They are perfect with a pair of skinny white jeans or if you want to opt out of wearing nude pumps, these are great alternative! I recently purchased mine from DSW because I had a shoe rewards perk! Steve Madden Heaven Patent Flats
My next recent purchase was from my favorite store South Moon Under. If you couldn't guess by all my tweeting and commenting on their blog, I actually work there! So its a win win situation. For those fashionistas that didn't know SMU is having a huge sale on their sale! An additional 25% of all of their sale merchandise. Brands like Marc Jacobs, Rebecca Minkoff, TOMs, Joes Jeans, Citizens, the list goes on. Well yesterday I had to get my hands on the Yosi Samra sandals. I first bought them in an awesome Pewter color and after wearing them for my 9 hour shift I was hooked on how amazing cute and comfortable they are. So I immediately bought my second pair in NUDE! SURPRISE!! Oh and did I mention that they are on sale for $29.99 plus the additional 25% off. Here's where you can find them!SMU Yosi Samra Nude Sandals
Adorable Right?! I have literally bought them in every color!! They are beyond comfy flip flops! Who can't get enough of the nude?! I know I sure can't. Cheers, J

E's Closet Boutique

I stumped upon this great website pretty much by accident, but it is an amazing website with the most adorable clothes. E's Closet Boutique started with Eleana and her passion for fashion. She is what every true fashionista struggles with; wanting look a million bucks on a not so million dollar budget. As she says in her own words "It's perfect for shopaholics on a budget." Let me guess you're totally there already shopping! Well I had to pick a couple of my favorite pieces to share! (all pictures are from E's website)
The Felicia is an absolutely adorable dress that comes in lavender and turquoise. It has a crisscross back pleat and would be perfect for a cocktail hour or wedding rehearsal dinner.
Staying right on trend with colored denim, E's has adorable neon coral denim! These look exactly like the Free People colored denim, at half the price! Major Steal!!!
This adorable bead necklace is the perfect statement piece to add to a simple basic tee! I've seen almost identical statement pieces at JCrew for a not so pleasant price! I'm sure I've lost you by now, you are probably clicking away on E's website! Oh, and did I mention the shipping rate is a 8 dollars flat! Happy shopping and you're welcome:)What are some of your favorite secret bargain boutiques? I promise I can keep it a secret! Cheers, J

G.L.A.M Fashion Show

If you have not heard of G.L.A.M. please check out it here! Giving Labels A Meaning is an amazing organization that holds fashion events in the DC area. To add icing on the cake, GLAM takes all of the proceeds from their events and donates it to children advocacy groups in the metro area. On June 28th G.L.A.M. held a fashion show event at The Hillyer Art Space and it was the perfect location. Designers and local boutiques came together for the great cause and donated all profits to G.L.A.M.'s organization. The event had wine, cupcakes, and shopping. A girl's dream right!? We were fortunate enough to stay to see the fashion show and do some damage to our bank accounts! It was such a fun event and I cannot wait to attend the next one. Want to know the best part?! I won an amazing leather handbag from Hobo!
MG and I After the event with our damage:) -disclaimer it was very sticky and humid and a long walk to the metro :) Cheers, J
