THE TRIPLE C'S CHIC, CONFIDENT AND COOL!!!





 Top of the evening FASHIONISTA'S. Thank you all for all the love from my featuring video for this look. It was my first time doing a video as well as editing. I have so much more to learn. So on to the details of the outfit. While being a military service member, I travel a lot. But, no matter where I go, I always want to look trendy. So this outfit is for ladies like myself that is constantly on the go and who loves to look CHIC, CONFIDENT AND COOL.  To begin, this entire outfit is off the clearance rack, with the exception of the NIKE AIR MAX and Denim Jacket. I purchased these tights at Walmart off the clearance rack for $2.00. These tights are made by No Boundaries. What I loved about these tights are they were made of a thick spandex material and they were not see thru. As we know, many times when we purchase black tights/legging, your underwear will magically peek thru the material. I recommend that you wear a dark pair of underwear, with any black tights/leggings. On to the top, this top was purchased at JC PENNY off the clearance rack for $3.97, the original price was $24.00. I don't know about you, but I'm not paying that much for a tank that I will possibly workout in or casually wear to run errands. As far as accessories, my necklace was purchased last year at Versona, stud earrings and of course a Michael Kors watch. I also added a Denim jacket for a little bit of SPICE. These AIR MAX are featured in my " Check Your Self" post, which is featured on the blog., where you can find all the details. I hope you all enjoyed this look and share with me you TRIPLE C'S look. Comment below, what are your favorite clothes to rock CHIC,CONFIDENT and COOL look. As always, trust the process, talk with you in my next post.

CHECK YOUR SELF!!!!



Top of the evening, to everyone. Hopefully, 2017 has been treating you well and you have been making all your dreams a reality. As I have been traveling in this journey called life, it dawned on me that instead of checking others, sometimes we need to check ourselves. As we begin to grow in our journey,periodically we need to check ourselves. SO, here is what I am talking about. Many times we are awaiting someone's else approval of what direction that our life should be taking, instead of self evaluating for ourselves. Let;s be honest, there is someone out THERE, waiting for you to FAIL!!!! DO YOU HEAR ME!!! But I am here to tell you to don't fall for the hype. Continue to follow your dreams, remain humble and live unapologetically. Besides, we only have one life to live so why not enjoy and love what you are doing. So, here is the little details on my outfit. I wore this outfit in Las Vegas. My entire outfit was purchased at Hibbett Sports. But here is the kicker, this entire outfit was off the clearance rack. The NIKE shirt was originally $35.00 and I coped this steal for $21.97 and the NIKE pants were originally $55.00 and I scored these for $23.97. I also got my AIR MAX on sale for $49.99. So comment below and tell me what are some of your favorite sports wear brands. Talk to you in my next blog. MIKSTANG LIVING
