I have to admit that since I have started trying my hand (try, being the operative word here) at “personal style” and fashion-y posts, I have gained much admiration & respect for fashion bloggers because, Damn Gina, ya’ll make it look easy. Mad props (my apologies ahead of time, I’m apparently “Fresh” like the Prince today).
(complete with shrug and grin…and mustache?)
My current method is propping my little phone up on my purse and setting it on my car to take video or photos & even then it’s hard to find a photo were I don’t look all lumpy and awkward AND not making a ridiculous face. Not to mention, my photos end up being all sideways because my phone slips slowly out of place and the quality is not very good.
Anyways…. I found this top on a retail website that offered affordable fashion, much like GoJane, in fact, I stumbled upon the website while looking for GoJane, but frustratingly, every trace of the website has disappeared. I can’t find my receipt (went through the trash) or even the website address (I had cleared my cache on safari to get a program working). All I have to go on is that the brand is called “Better Be” and couldn’t even find a website for them, only find a few items on amazon. I’m frustrated because I really like it, and would love to find more similar to it and in different colors. So if anyone stumbles across it, or something like it, please let me know!!
It is super comfortable fabric, fits well (if a little thin) and goes well dressed up or down.
I wore it with:
my favorites pair of jeans, my Paige Denim Cara Zip Ultra Skinny Jeans, available at ShopBop.
and my open toe, camel colored, blocked heel booties. Something like these Lucky Brand “Lubov” Cutout Booties ($89.95), available at Nordstroms, were my inspiration:
BUT, ever the deal hunter, I found mine at (and don’t judge!) at Burlington Coat Factory, for $16.99!! And, although they aren’t online anymore, I found a pair of the same brand, (Maurices), offering a similar pair for sale on their website for only $10.00!
With my Gold Eagle Statement Necklace, from Old Navy, that I was so excited to find, I took about 100 selfies of me wearing it, while doing the thumbs up and pointing to it, in about 50 of pictures.
I really do want to see what you guys are wearing and doing, even reading or painting…so if you ever want to be featured on here just email me at thiswildpreciouslifeblog@gmail.com.
Happy Hump day!
