SILK + LACE

Hello bbs! It’s the middle of the week. Whoop! Whoop!

As peeps everywhere shove politics down your throat today over the new President elect, I want to be you bbs refuge… your escape when you’ve had enough of all that. What’s done is done, and there’s no changing it. Whether you were pro Hillary or pro Trump, the mass majority has made a decision. The people have spoken. All we can do is pray to God, to help us all live in love and act on peace. So there’s that. On a lighter, less controversial note — today’s shoot day!

Shoot days are my favorite because the vibes are always so good. My good girlfriend and I have so much fun shooting looks and having girl chat in between outfit changes. When I first started this blog, my photographer (my homie since freshmen yr of HS) and I had no idea what we were doing. We were both very new to the world of picture taking and blogging.

Today we have made massive leaps toward better content and a more efficient process when shooting. We’ve grown so much! Shoot days are one of the better parts of my week because I get to spend time with my homie doing what I love.

Speaking of shoot day, I discovered this new boutique during last week’s shoot and bought the cutest dress. I’m uber excited to shoot it today. IF I had to describe said dress in one word: FIRE-Y

Discovering it couldn’t have come at a better time because my obsession with Missguided has become… i n t e n s e.

That doesn’t mean there will be a shortage of Missguided content though! There’s still more to come. Can’t stop, won’t stop.

BUT. I may or may not need a breather and have found solace in this new boutique (more details to come soon).

So this look right here: SILK + LACE and everything dreamy. Can I just start this off with how obsessed I am with this look. Like ohemgeee. 

It oozes femininity and that aspect of this looks seals the deal for me the most. Nothing says fine dining, wining, and stylin’ like silk and lace.

Who begs to differ?

Okay so back story on this lace. I bought two lace crop tops from here on impulse two years ago. I was just getting into a newfound love for lace and both tops spoke to me, so I grabbed them. At the time, best idea ever. When I tried to work them into my clothing, weeeeell.. I realized it wasn’t the best idea I’d ever had. Why? My boobs are too big for fitted crop tops PLUS lace. It was A LOT. They then went on to sit in my closet for a year untouched, that is until a few months ago.

Layering the silk on top of the lace was the best way for me to show off the lace without over exposing my boobs (which btw I don’t like doing often, if ever) so yeah. Here we are. It gave me the sexy look I was going for, but still allowed room for class and all things fancy.

I completed the look with my favorite purse right now and strappy heels.

I am now off to face the music of this election, run some errands, and figure out my looks tomorrow (shoot day had to be moved because of the gloomy weather + rain).

Later babes, love + light
