attainable

inspire:  a) to fill someone with the urge or ability to do or feel something, esp. to do something creative.
               b) give rise to an action, feeling.

all of these photos contain outfits that i believe are very attainable, see what you think for yourself...

so sick

of love songs, so tired of tears.

even though I am in complete love with Neyo, i am so sick of one thing.

fake purses.


we've all see the vendors on the street selling them for outragous prices claiming there real.

now, i completely understand that we all want a piece of prada or a dooney and burke bag, but just cant afford it. but at times, the fake Louis Vitton are just annoying. so here is my advice when you want a designer bag, but the cost is burning you.

first, go to stores like tj maxx or marshalls, they have some fantastic designers for a really reduced price. i bought this adorable xoxo motorcycle bag for $25, and i love it. and the best part is it is real leather (on most of it :) ) but also, please remember, a name or a plaque on the side should'nt be the deciding factor on whether or not you buy the bag, if you like it alot, but it doesnt have coach written all over it, go for it, because its more about the bag than flaunting a designer name.
secondly, look up slightly used designer bags on ebay or even craigslist, you can get a really good steal on those sites.
BUT if you must get a fake bag, please do it right
first, you need to do some research, check and make sure the fakie design your checking into is actually MADE by the designer. when i see a chanel bag at school that chanel has never produced in that design, i just laugh, and trust me; you don't want to see me laughing at you, or anyone else cracking up either. :)

secondly, check out the quality, for the price you are paying for the fake, it should not feel like plastic, or have a nasty plasticy sheen to it. ew, i just cringe at the thought. the "leather" should feel like butter, or as close as you can get.

and finally, if you look like a hobo with a fake bag, your not pulling it off. but if you look like you could afford it, i.e. putting an effort forward to look nice,  you can succesfully pull of a fakie.

good luck girls (and guys)
stay classy, please dont be trashy!

you have no idea how excited i am for the slouchy romper look. i adore this look and cant wait to get one of these for myself!!


the high waisted skirt, reinvented. i love this look, its so casual, yet dressy.
check out her shoes to! love this!

im softy for...

a chic head band, when i see one at the store my arms go out and i just want to buy all of them. so here are some of my faves! a key though, when wearing a head band is to not over do it, wear them sporatically, and dont repeat the same headband more than three times in a week. 

any ways, here are some faves.






the hippie headband


i personally think this looks like something an egyptian godess would wear. 



i love this grecian style!!


i just love this. 


alrighty, thats all i have. oh and that last post? dumb, i know, its called a lack of sleep, but that rediculous outfit was a snuggie! haha, which i love.

stay classy !

ps. heres a few headbands i found on amazon.

belt it up, darling.

okay seriously, the best accessory besides the scarf is the belt. i just adore the belt over a shirt. here are some examples, oh and just so you know, this look is sooo easy to pull off. 

first,  you have the studded belt, remember less is more, so dont over do it with the studs. love this look, so simple, yet so chic. 







another chic belt is the classic leather belt, its bohemian/flowy chic. and i love this look even more if the belt is vintage, old leather = the best.







contrasting belt - when you place a contrasting belt over a appropriate shirt or dress, it adds a lot to the outfit, and it makes your hips look a lot smaller - bonus! :))






something else that i really love, is the wrapped leather look, its juust coming in and i love it. the picture i found isnt super appropriate, i dont like how big it is, a little over the top, but i hope you get the main idea :)



annd thats all folks.

i hope you all had a great Christmas and an amazing New Year, what are some of your resolutions? i dont usually do the whole new years resolution deal, but i think i might this year, im still working on it :).

thoughts? suggestions? please share :))

bag em'

book bags! school is starting back up soon so i thought i would do a blog on book bags! and messenger bags, you know, so here are some of my faves, and a few i could never get, i just like to drool over. :))



roxy melody rucksack - $74








the classic man bag, its rough and rugged. this ones from barbour
as you can tell, i really love a good leather messenger :). 



this is scrumptious. oh and the bag is nice to. ;). 




i hope you are getting the general theme, messenger bags are chic! good luck finding your own bag. my own suggestion would be to buy a nice one, and once that leather gets worn, the better it gets. so have fun! 


stay classy!

beanie + beret = love love love




oh, my apologies in advance for the completely random amazon links. 
i hate tyras hat in this, but i adoore beyonce's






one trend that i have recently fallen completely in love with is the underrated beanie, or the slouchy beret. 
if i could, i would buy this in all colors known to man, but right now im sticking with blacks, whites and the entire blue color wheel, for fall and winter, for spring i plan on moving towards more brighter colors. hot pink berets, here i come. :).  these kind of hats are perfect for small towns ♥♥
i recently started looking on amazon, my friend showed me the broad selection they have, so i like. so here are a feeew i found on amazon.

testing? testing? check, check?

checkerrrd. also know as plaid. yes this was a very hot trend for the fall. heres how to wear it for the winter.


1) stick to the dull colors. depresssing? i know, but bright red checkers really hurt my eyes in the middle of winter. see the example below, i really like how pleasantly dull this outfit is, its peaceful, which i like. 





annd one for the boys, p.s. this is really attractive, please go buy this outfit. love -all girls across the world.




2) acessorize with plaid, your entire outfit doesnt have to be made up of plaid.




this scarf is 39.95 at hollister, and can be put over really any solid muted color, like black, grey, muted red, muted blue or a soft yellow.


shoes are a perfect way to add a pop to your outfit, this shoe is only 19.99 and its at Charlotte Russe..

3) dont over do it, an entire plaid outfit is just appalling. So dont even think about going for it.


i hope you got some good tips, if you have a plaid outfit you love, comment on this, i want to see it!!


♥smalltownchicc
 oh p.s i just found these socks, cute right? they also add a fun little pop to any outfit. put with black flats? chic? i think so :)
