Lighten Up For Christmas

 

 While enjoying a relaxing Christmas Eve, I spent 20 min. wrapping my self up in lights then posing for an hour and a half for pictures. In the end it was worth it because I am in love with all of these pictures. After posing for pictures I dove into the kitchen and made some yummy Rocky Road fudge!

Today I am wearing a sophisticated red dress that is a little too big but it hugs my shape kindly.  Vintage styled shoes that I love so much, I actually found theses shoes online, but because I didn't trust the website due to negative reviews I gave up on them, but luck was on my side because  three months later found them at goodwill in my size! Got to love thrift shopping.

My jewelry is all real -- after all, diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Gold necklace, diamond earrings, and diamond  bracelet are all gorgeous and borrowed from Mom's Closet.

 I tried to complement the shoes with the makeup, aiming towards a "vintage" look.

The Weekend Trip

 

 

 

 

I had such a great time in Florida! Daytona beach was so beautiful , filled with fresh crisp air, seagulls flying all around and some extremely high winds which meant cold weather, no swimming for me!The wind almost did steal my jacket from my bare hands when I took it off for a quick second!

Well I must say I rocked those black heels on the beach! When I was on the sidewalk I checked and saw the whole bottom of my shoe was covered in sand but it was so worth it. Surprisingly this was my first time wearing anything but flip flops on the beach.

Well I hope you enjoyed your Turkey Day ( and if you don't celebrate it then I hope you had a great day!)

Tip of the day: It doesn't matter where you are you can make the best of every situation.

Natural Beauty

 

I guess I lied about it being my final days of wearing short clothes until springtime, weather is so unpredictable! I woke up to a chill 65 degrees and by noon it was a warm 80 degrees.

Well today I enjoyed another beautiful day outside, I attended Indian Spring Park and thought what a beautiful place to take pictures!

Tip of the day: (for the ladies) a natural face is always more genuine so next time you wear makeup use it to your advantage to enhance your "natural " beauty.

Ps: Jackets are a must have for winter so keep your eyes peeled!

Tip of the Day: Don't let the opinions of others rule your world.

Lost in the Wild

 

Today was such a beautiful day outside and since I was embracing zebra print I thought what better place to take pictures than next to flowers and trees. Today I am wearing some wild pants that are originally from GUESS but I got from Goodwill! The thing I love most about these pants is that they are printed in the front and denim in back, how unique and amazing is that? I am wearing black ankle boots also from Goodwill (word of advice break your heels in before walking around a WHOLE school day or else you will get blisters)!

           I kept my jewelry to a slight minimum with one large statement necklace, which I am in love with, paint on feathers so punk/girly. A few bracelets and simple earrings.

           I had a great time enjoying the fresh air and the great outdoors!

Tip of the day: Bold pieces equals killer confidence and allows you to stand out from the crowd.

Love Kristyn Alexandra

Pants Originally from Guess I got for $2.50 Goodwill
