essie spring 2013

Happy Saturday bosses and boss chics! Essie’s is getting ready to debut it’s Spring 2013 nail lacquer collection and of course I had to fill you guys in! The new collection consists mostly of soft pastels ranging from cherry blossom pink to gray/green .The collection represents a high end, chic type of woman focusing on high class areas such as Paris, London, and Madison Avenue. You know the high paid boss chics :)

The Madison Ave-hue pink is a chic upper East end pink that represent glamour. The Go Ginza is a soft cherry blossom pink that gives me a dreamy, fairy tale vibe.The Avenue Maintain is a Parisian blue that exudes high class and high maintenance. Bond With Whomever is a posh lilac that represents London’s diverse culture. The Maximillian Strasse her is a soft green-gray lacquer that has a regal sense like that of a queen. The Hip-Anema color is a reddish-orange which is sure to grab some attention like a true boss.

I’m loving these new colors and will definitely be buying a few! You can get yours at local drugstores for $8 a bottle. Are you feeling the collections overall? Leave a comment with your thoughts!

[Dress For Less] Target Tee Top BodyCon Dress

Xhilaration BodyCon Tee Top Dress $18

Happy Hump Day bosses and boss chics! First of all let me just tell ya’ll how I had written this WHOLE blog last night and somehow when I was done, all that was left was the picture above *sad face*. Any who, I’ve been getting numerous requests for more “look for less” type posts to help some of my viewers find items that are more budget friendly. Now before I continue just keep in mind that the clothes and things I post are usually just items I found from some of my favorite websites. It doesn’t mean I’m paying that much for any of it, it’s all just to give you guys an idea of how I make different looks based on my individual style.

On that note, you can always go out and find similar pieces like the ones I post on for much cheaper prices. However I do want to start working on more posts that are budget friendly to help you guys out. What I try to do is buy lots of simple, staple items for my closet like this blue dress above. When you have items like those, you can spice it up with different shoes and accessories to make different looks. What I usually splurge on is shoes. I’ve said numerous times that I try to base my outfit around my shoes. When you just buy the outfit you have to go out and find shoes to match, but when you already have the shoes it’s easy to go find a cheap dress or shirt to match.

The dress above can be found at Target for only $18 and it’s so easy to use for color blocking! You can pair it with yellows, greens, purple or pink and even orange to get the color block effect going. What I did was paired it with some yellow wedges from Aldo’s and a hot pink hobo bag from Forever21. Check those out below and let me know what you think of this look! Be on the look out for more posts like this as well!

XOXO,

[Fashion Files] The Floral Blazer

2 Replies

Now that Spring has finally arrived, I have this newfound obsession with blazers. Let’s just face it, this is a staple item that every female should have in her closet because they will probably never go out of style again. We now have so many options for unique blazers that you can wear them literally over everything. Blazers come in different designs, colors, and patterns so if you own a few your wardrobe should never be dull.

One of my favorite designs right now is the floral print and for obvious reasons. Spring is the season of flowers blossoming and beautiful colors blooming all around us. Well the floral blazer exemplifies just that. Since there are so many diverse colors in a floral blazer, it’s easy to use in a color blocking scheme. If you like to wear bright colors this is perfect for you… You can always pair it with a bright pair of pants, a skirt, or dress.

Check out a look I created below with the River Island Tropical Floral Blazer found at ASOS for $80.57. I paired it with a pair of green pants and mustard yellow wedges from Bakers. The wedges color block perfectly with the pants, and since both colors are in the blazer it all ties together classily.  Let me know what you think!

XOXO,

[Nail Files] OPI Holland Collection

3 Replies

I have absolutely fallen in love with OPI’s Holland Nail Lacquer Collection! These colors are so pretty and I want to try every one of them! I can see a few of these colors being put together for the ombre style. If you’re not aware of what that is, it’s where you have different shades of the same color on one hand. Like you may have a range of blues from midnight to robins egg to sky blue on one hand. I really think that’s a pretty way to display versatility with nail polish.

All of the colors in this collection are dope and are perfect for the spring. I can’t wait to try them on my nails and toes! Are you feeling these colors and will you be wearing them this spring? Below you can check out the individual shades and how they look on the actual nail. I’ve also included the name of each. Hit me up with comments and let me know which is your favorite color!

SN: Kiss Me On My Tulips and Thanks A Windmillion are so pretty! I have to try those :*

XOXO,

LaBellaBoss ♥
