ROMPERstiltskin






Hello She's So Me readers! Sorry I've been sort of M.I.A. lately. There's been a lot going on in this here thing I call life!! However, I am back! That being said,  I want to tell you guys all about my LOVE for the romper! Here are three words that should explain this love -- I LOVE ROMPERS! Rompers are pretty much going to be my go-to summer gear. 

So check out my Hawaiin print stretch cotton skater romper that I recently purchased at Express. Not only is this romper unique because of its print, but it is also extremely soft and SUPER comfortable. I think the comfort derives from the skater style. I was literally running around all day and not once did my outfit get in my way. To be honest, I probably could have climbed a mountain in this romper. This romper is everything a romper is supposed to be...cute, comfortable, and easy to wear. If you look in my closet right now at all the rompers I am racking up, I'm pretty sure you are going to want to call me ROMPERstiltskin! 


Also, did you all peep my box braids? WOWzers right? I found myself a new hair braider and SHE KILLS THE GAME! That's all folks! xoxo!

Emerald Dream


Hey Everyone! Sorry, I've been a tad bit M.I.A but I'm back with a new blog post for you all.

So, the other day I went to my new favorite store Fab'rik and I fell in love with the variety of belts they had in the store. This was really weird for me because I NEVER usually find beauty in belts. Belts are usually just a necessity to keep my boyfriend jeans up but for some reason these belts really caught my eye and I HAD to have them.



This emerald and gold belt that I am wearing in today's blog post is one of the two belts that I bought. If you know me, you know that I am IN LOVE with earthy tones. Probably because emerald is my birthstone color (MAY BABY!). I decided to add the belt to this beautiful maxi dress to a little dash of something different. I wouldn't necessarily call it "a pop of emerald green" because it is a very subtle color. However, I think its the subtlety that makes it so perfect! This belt is an Emerald Dream come true!

Floral Arrangement



I don't know if any one is as excited as I am about the arrival of Spring 2014. If you having been keeping up with the latest on She's So Me, then you are aware of my love for Spring weather and fashion. 




In the world of fashion -- and Joanna -- this season is totally about florals. I always get asked how to style a statement floral piece and my first thought is literally "It's a floral arrangement." When dealing with a statement floral piece like the wide leg pants I have on, you have to arrange your outfit around that piece. 




When creating a floral arrangement, you typically have to decide a color scheme, which flowers you plan to use, and what items you will add for the purpose of décor. The same goes for your floral inspired outfit. You have to decide what color scheme you want to go with, which pieces will you be wearing and what accessories are necessary to complete the outfit.



Long story short, playing around with floral prints should be nothing short of F.U.N! It is all about mixing and matching -- or not matching at all for that matter.
