Free PINK NATION Bandeau

Although this laced bandeau is not bikini top material, it is definitely some sort of sexy.  It makes you feel sexy, that is.  I wore it by the shore because, what the heck, if it got splashed on I could just wash it anyway.  I had no intention on merely hiding it underneath barely sheer attire or loose tanks.  No, this bandeau is a beach top on its own and the hot pink graphic is super loud and beautifully contrasted against the almighty, always trendy black.  Believe it or not, this girly bandeau is FREE with any PINK purchase.  If you want to get the best deal, as I simply must, go for the cute panties so that you only pay around $10 for the underwear, bandeau, AND a secret rewards card which will grant you at least $10 to spend at Victoria's Secret (for a limited time only).  See how much you save?  Go for the free goodies when you have time, for nothing is more satisfying during shopping than feeling smart, wearing sexy, and saving bandeaux and bandeaux of bucks.

Violet Blouse

Springtime = sheer time.  We can feel the warm wind approaching, especially when we see and show more skin.  I don't know anyone who isn't pumped for the new season.  It can be any time of the year, though, and I will fall in love with every shade of purple, whether it be lilac, lavender, orchid, violet, fuchsia, magenta, or plum.  Since I'm in the process of augmenting more shirts and blouses in all sorts of pigments to my wardrobe, this top was at such a great extent of a must-have that I placed it above my Brandy Melville wishlist (which is quite a big deal).  This sheer violet halfway button up blouse is a bit of a darker shade in person than in my photos (it's closer to the store's image), but it shines through as so under the sun.  However, while you are wearing a necessary purple so pretty, the sun is not the sole source of radiance.  Roses are red, violets are blue, but gleaming the most, is the shade of you!

Americana Denim Cutoffs

Whether you're close to the beaches or just preparing for Spring & Summer, now's the time to begin scouting for some new and cute denim shorts.  Normally, I'm not one to advertise the American Flag on my shirts or what have you because I go for more unique designs and styles, but this pair pretty much meets smack in the middle between patriotism and extraordinary.  I unexpectedly stumbled upon these cutoffs on Forever21.com and was iffy on ordering them online due to sizing uncertainty.  Obviously it turned out okay--actually, more than okay--since the color, fit, appeal, and quality were perfection.   Even though I tend to shy away from revealing more of my thighs than necessary, I am not afraid to wear this as a high waisted piece.  If you live in the U.S. or have American pride, I more than recommend this denim essential.  The stars and stripes are calling your name, so go ahead and don't show them up...show them off!!

Green Tiger Sweater

Green Tiger Sweater

This big guy is mean, green, and all studded up.  Animal print is so not my style and I am not first in line regarding the stud obsession, but as long as the animal print is not a mere pattern and the design is more than over-exaggerated metal, I'll give it a pass.  Give this tiger dude a pass?  I wouldn't think twice!  There are those days in which you just know your inner feisty self is about to face the world.  Granted, your style doesn't design you, yet it defines your mood.  Wear the tiger, be the tiger; wear the stud, be the stud, and so on and so forth.  I have seen multiple colors of the studded pullover (& feel free to click the websites for the coordinating items):  gray from Tobi.com and Forever21.com, orange from Shopwasteland.com, and gray/black/lime green from GOJane.com.  But what better color to add to my wardrobe than my favorite color: green!  NecessaryClothing.com also has sequined tiger sweaters and there are similar studded ones in black/white/gray from Sheinside.com. The tag brand is Rehab, but scroll down to see where I added the solid, bright, pigment green top to my cart.  Feel free to tear yourself apart.  Rawr!!

Nanette Lepore Goddess One Piece Swimsuit

Take a moment when you wake up in the morning (or as you pull an all-nighter) and listen to the birds chirp chirping away.  In this moment, you are free to pause and relieve yourself from any weight or worry you may have.  Go ahead and sigh.  Sigh out all your senses but your hearing.  The birds may not speak your language, yet they can sure give you a sense of peace.  Remember:  Only when you let beauty surround you can it grow within you. ~ Dizzida
