On sunny summer days like today; laying by the pool with a cold beverage in one hand and a good book in the other is one of my favorite ways to pass the day.
This is my next fashion book purchase, and after you watch this video I think you will see why...

Emma Watson
Emma has made a major fashion upgrade in this last year or two and I think that attention should be paid!!! The girl is not afraid to take risks. Enter pixie hair cut! When she did it, it seemed everyone had an opinion, but she seemed to remain very comfortable in her decision. And I have to admit that I think it looks best now, where it is grown out just a little. There is a sweet and yet kind of punk rock vibe to her look at the same time. I love the juxtaposition in her fashion sense. And loving the tan skin and brown hair with the grey coloring, very now!
Rock it girl! You look lovely!

Shenani-Sunday!
Hello Followers! I hope this finds you lovely, healthy and happy on this amazing Sunday! I wanted to take a moment to discuss my blog credo as I think it may possibly be a very unique approach to fashion. My focus is to inspire fashion, and to attempt to be fashion as much as I can while at the same time letting the judgement of it all fade into the darkness a little bit. It is mostly in regards to judgement that I would like this blog to stand apart. In the fashion industry there are so many do's and dont's that it is my belief that we can sometimes get out of hand and forget that we are talking about a person that has feelings whether we are talking about the clothes on them or how they look! Fashion is art to me and truly at the end of the day should not be taken too serious, but talking badly about others and putting them down should be. I like to imagine that I am letting my inner child pick out what I am going to wear for the day. Because that was when fashion was the most fun for me! When it had no limits or rules. And so, today, on this lovely Sunday I would like to inspire you to allow your inner child, let your emotions drive your fashion decisions. Let fashion be fun and let judgement fall away, it is unnecessary. (with only one exception of showing too much skin or wearing things that are WAY too small, that is just socially inappropriate, especially in front of children!)
Here are some Shenani-Sunday pictures, they are pictures for no real reason other than to help make your day a little more inspired and Shenani-filled! XOXO
Welp, it looks my sense of style today has a bit of a regal and fancy twinge to it today! That was not planned : ) And I enjoyed every fashion minute!

Burberry Delights
I go through phases of interest in purses. Sometimes I find a ton that I would love to call my own (usually it is online and out of my price range), and then other times I will be perfectly happy with what I have because there is just nothing out their that I am really interested in spending my money on (that I can find within my price range). And lately, I have decided that I am just going to have to save, then spend the money on a purse that I am going to keep for years and years to come. And I am usually not a brand seeker when it comes to purses. I'm not a Coach girl or a Juicy girl...but Burberry has really been impressing me lately! Two major brands that I can think of right now that I would spend the money on would be Burberry and Louis Vuitton. They are classic, well made and if you pick a style that suits you, it can be a fashion staple for years to come.
And so, I'm on the hunt, and these are my Burberry loves. I'm hoping the more I save for it, the more I will be able to narrow down my decision, but here are the purses in the running right now. What do you think?
I have to say that I think this last black one is really pulling on my heart strings. And I am a sucker for patent leather that is done in a classy way! But, count on me to somehow, without even looking at the prices... to manage to pick the most expensive one from the bunch! (Sigh)

Effortlessly Chic Manly Man
There is something about Johnny Depp that is so styled and yet he keeps his look so very natural and easy. He always seems to look like he threw on something that he keeps on the floor and makes it look modern. It is my personal observation (correct me if I am wrong), but his style really has not changed all that much in these past 8-10 years. Yes, he tries different things and experiments with off the cusp fashion items, but all and all, I think he has always had a certain gypsy/bohemian flair to his look. And I for one adore it! He can do no wrong; when he tries on something so very wrong, somehow it just turns out to be....right.
