LIFE | Moving

3 weeks and counting.

Its all bitter sweet. It will be the first time that my sister and I will be living in the same city, but not under the same roof. Out of the 28 years that I have known her, only 6 of those years involved us living separate.  That's cray. Real cray.

A week ago I asked around and within 2 hrs I had 4 responses. Today, I got the keys. God is good.

There's no closet, so there will be some downsizing. I bought 24 hangers, and had to choose which clothes would make it to my new makeshift closet. Everything will be donated.

My new room will have plenty of sunlight and plenty of wall space, so it's time to invest in a full length mirror for better OOTD pictures!

STYLE CRUSH | Zoe Saldana

My first celebrity style crush. Normally, I try to search for the unknown and known blogsters of the fashion realm, but come on--its Zoe Saldana. On the red, her evening wear is almost always sporting a plummeting necklines, exposed shoulders, geometric cut outs, or a mini to show off her ballerina legs that go on "fuh days".

Off the carpet, and into the streets of every day wear and small social events, her simplicity in color and pattern palette is makes her the most striking in my opinion. There is the straight forward approach about her style, that says "I like comfort, but I don't have to be a slob about it." She airs on the side of blacks and greys and plays casually with her accessories. Not a lot of fuss. Zoe. Live long and prosper.

ACCESSORIES | Tigress Necklace

Another beaut from Italy's Zara: This wonderful neck piece. My sister was on the hunt to find me Kenzo head gear (hey she found a real Prada bag at an Italian church rummage sale) the Kenzo motif is an open mouthed tiger. This was no Kenzo, but she knew I would wear this...A LOT! And they go nicely with the tribal print leggings she got for me too!
