  STYLE IS ALL ABOUT HAVING FUN WITH FASHION!! THAT IS JUST WHAT I DID STARTING WITH THIS FUCHSIA SKIRT! WITH ME THERE ARE NO RULES WHEN IT COMES TO PUTTING TOGETHER AN OUTFIT. I LOVE TO MIX PATTERNS AND COLORS. ON THAT NOTE...I AM SO EXCITED THAT PATTERN MIXING IS TOTALLY "IN" THIS FALL!

 I THRIFTED THIS VINTAGE DRESS MONTHS AGO. I FIGURED I'D BETTER WEAR IT BEFORE IT STARTS GETTING COLD. TO ME... IT IS THE PERFECT SUMMER DRESS. IT REMINDS ME OF A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN.   BECAUSE THE DRESS MAKES SUCH  A STATEMENT ON ITS OWN, I DECIDED TO PAIR IT WITH NEUTRAL ACCESSORIES. THE BELT IS FROM ROSS, SHOES ARE NINE WEST AND THIS IS A VINTAGE NEIMAN MARCUS CLUTCH. SUNNIES ARE BCBG MAX AZRIA. I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A BLESSED WEEK! WITH LOVE, KIAH

TODAY WE DROVE OUT TO THE OUTLETS TO GET MY DAUGHTER SOME CONVERSE FOR SCHOOL. SHE ADORES CHUCKS AND WILL NOT WEAR ANY OTHER SHOE TO SCHOOL! AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY SCHOOL YEAR TEXAS HAS A TAX FREE DAY. YOU DON'T PAY TAX ON ANY CLOTHING, SHOES OR SCHOOL SUPPLIES UP TO $100. IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS DAY, MOST RETAILERS HAVE GREAT SALES. BOTH MY DAUGHTER AND HUSBAND ENDED UP GETTING SOME CHUCKS AND OF COURSE, I PICKED UP SOME THINGS TOO!! I CAN'T WAIT TO SHOW YOU!! ;-)   I WANTED TO BE COMFY BECAUSE OUTLETS REQUIRE A LOT OF WALKING. I FOUND THIS CUTE LIGHT WEIGHT JACKET/BLAZER ON EBAY AND IT REMINDED ME OF HOME (ARIZONA) SO I HAD TO HAVE IT! I PAIRED IT WITH SOME STIRRUP LEGGINGS AND A ZEBRA PRINT KAFTAN. I KNOW MY PRINTS ARE CLASHING AND BUSY BUT IT IS FUN!! THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING ME KNOW THAT I AM NOT MARRIED TO ONE LOOK, IN FACT, I CRAVE VERSATILITY AND I DRESS ACCORDING TO MY MOOD WHICH IS EVER CHANGING! I WEAR LEATHA IN THE SUMMA TIME AND SHORTS IN THE WINT

Hey Y'all! I love love love menswear! I also love black and white! Add a pop of color and that's all she wrote as far as my signature style is concerned. I often wear jackets, shirts with my hubby's ties and skirts with boots to work in the cooler months. I am very much into the "preppy" look. Today I wore some thrifted pants, white blazer from Lane Bryant, striped ruffle front silk blouse by Ralph Lauren and Steve Madden oxfords. Hope you like it!  Thank you for all of your comments concerning my acne woes! I am still having forehead breakouts but the rest of my face seems to be clearing up.  On another note...don't forget to follow me on Facebook and Twitter too!  With Love, Kiah

HEY Y'ALL!! IF YOU WATCH THE NEWS THEN YOU HAVE SEEN THE CRAZY HEAT WAVE THAT IS AFFECTING MANY STATES RIGHT NOW. DALLAS IS ONE OF THEM! DUE TO THE HEAT I HAVE NOT BEEN WILLING TO GO OUTDOORS TO SNAP PHOTOS WHICH EXPLAINS THE LACK OF OUTFIT POSTS. ANY WHO, TODAY I DECIDED TO RUN OUT AND TAKE A FEW PICS. I PURCHASED THESE PANTS FROM ASOS CURVE ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND PAIRED THEM WITH A LEOPARD PRINT SILK BLOUSE. WHILE TAKING THESE PICS A GUST OF WIND CAME FROM OUT OF NO WHERE CAUSING "WIND PUFF" TO MY PANTS. I LOVE HOW THEY LOOK ALL PUFFED UP! HAHA HOPE Y'ALL ARE WELL AND THAT YOU LIKE THE PICS (taken by my daughter Makayla who just turned 10 yesterday)! KIAH LOL - because of the slippery silk top tucked into the waist of the pants (that are also slick material) they seem to have shifted at the waist causing the zipper to be a bit off center! haha
