Just an OOTD

Casual Cool if I do say so myself. 


My fiance's niece celebrated her 7th birthday with a party and and what better way to be dressed in than something loose and comfortable right. I figured games were going to be played and I needed to have that extra room as well for the delicious food. So I dressed in a loose sheer black tank top with a front panel that hangs from my right shoulder to the waist which by the way is from my stylish Godmother Monserrat. She also was kind enough to give me the red leather Coach bag. I paired them with the  blue chambray harem pants from my fashionista Aunt Celina and black leather and snake skin flats from Primadonna which i totally adore from my awesome possum mother dear. Yes yes and yes... my whole outfit was gifted/sponsored, hahaha and it isn't even my birthday. Don't I feel special. Anyway this is just my way of thanking them and showing them how much i appreciate their fashion senses. I may not have picked it all up just yet but I am seriously working on it.  I wish i  had taken more picture but the party was so much fun i forgot. 

I love this outfit. I would definitely wear again to another occasion for sure paired with outer articles of clothing in my collection and next time Imma going photo crazy. ;D

Friendship Bracelets

This is one of the main reasons why i have been MIA-ing. You've already read about the other reasons but this one was one that relieved all the stresses and yes there has been many as you will see with my collection. 

Who said you need friends to collect friendship bracelets? It was originally the idea but none of my friends has the time or the skills to do them. You can say i'm addicted and gladly so cause i am making my world beautiful one friendship bracelet at a time. I have shared with a few friends and family members cause they are very hard to part with especially knowing how much time that goes into them and the thoughts that poured out when i made each one. Thought about selling them but as i mentioned parting is such sweet sorrow i can't bare so until i can make them without attachment i'm afraid i will grow quite a bit of a collection. 


 This is what i started of with. I had no idea it would become so addicting making them. 


I call this the rainbow collection, for when you need a rainbow at arms reach cause you know sometimes it can rain all day and the rainbow after is too far to see.


this set i gave away to a godson and his girl friend and my aunt. 





Mom's watch needed a new watch band and i thought why don't i just make her one. ;D 

Recently discovered the flip flop zigzag pattern and i can't seem to stop making them as well. these are the ones i have left for myself.




These are a few of my favorite ones i made that i wear quite often. 




I also find them decorative contained in a glass container with all the  colors amplified through the glass.


Another way I store them is wrapped around an empty beer bottle. Now don't go drinking up all the beer, find an empty one already. This bottle kinda has sentimental value, it's the last bottle of beer i drank new years i think. anyway haven't had an alcoholic beverage since then not that i was ever an alcoholic or anything.

Anyway, i hope they have been fun to look at as much as i had fun making them. now go and create your own collection. You can learn to make friendship bracelets through an awesome
