For The Fellas: Tom Ford Says...

Hey Lovies...yeah, yeah I know it's been a minute...my BAD! If it's any consolation, I've missed you guys! *flashes dimples quickly*

So yeah here are a few tips from one of my favorite designers (yes, I was aware of Tom Ford long before rappers such as Jay Z and Rocko started name dropping him in their music). I think some of these tips can be cross applied for men and women, but since I don't do many posts for the fellas I will let y'all have this one! LOL!

Ladies, fellas...what's your favorite look on the list? Did Tom leave something you LOVE off the list? Sound off...let me know!

Ciao and see ya at the TOP!

Arm Candy? Yes, PLEASE...

Hey Lovies!

There's nothing I LOVE more than indulging in sweet treats. Candy, cookies, cupcakes you name it and I love it. The only requirement is that it must be SUGARY and SWEET!

In an effort to shed a few pounds and preserve my teeth I have shifted my sweets obsession to accessories. Yes lovies, I am officially obsessed with the latest fashion trend, ARM CANDY!

Arm Candy comes in a multitude of varieties and can be worn a plethora of ways. Arm Candy includes, but is not limited to the following accessories: bangles (big, small, skinny or fat), cuffs, beads, and watches. Basically, if it can fit on your arm then it qualifies as Arm Candy.

The great thing about Arm Candy is there's no right or wrong way to do it. You can stack a small amount of bracelets or you can stack a lot...it's all up to you!

Take a look at some of the images below to get ideas of how to rock the Arm Candy trend. If you're in the market for some great Arm Candy, don't forget Pearlie B's Lounge and Boutique is your one stop shop for FABULOUS accessories and fashion apparel!

Tiffany & Co? YES, Please...

Good Morning Lovies!

It's been a long time...I seriously need to do better! I can't make any promises due to my crazy work life and travel schedule, BUT I will make a better effort. Deal? Great!

So last night as I was scrolling through photos on Pinterest, trying to make myself fall asleep, I came across these cute tennis shoes. I'm not sure if Tiffany and Nike collaborated on a shoe OR if this shoe just happens to be Tiffany blue. Either way, this shoe is cute and as a lover of all things Tiffany, I feel like I should have them. So with that being said, 'Who's buying?'

Say A Little Prayer...

Good Morning Lovies!

It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to post anything. This week has been quite an interesting week and it's ONLY Tuesday!

Sunday was an eventful day in Wichita. It was a day filled with hail, torrential rain, lighting, high winds, tornado touch downs and so much more. Thankfully, I was in a safe place (church) and Sweet Bella (my dog) was at home in the basement. The only damage sustained was a few dents in my car due to the hail (I will be calling Geico, pronto!) Thank you to everyone who called, sent a text, a FB message and sent kind words or prayers to me via Instagram. I appreciate you!

Yesterday was a bit tougher...not for me, but for my neighbors 180 miles, give or take, to the South. Yesterday the people of Moore, OK endured a TERRIBLE tornado and many lives were lost and homes destroyed. Yesterday was a great reminder that Mother Nature is a powerful beast and what you once had can be taken away so quickly.

Lovies, remember to value each day of your life and those that are in it like it's your last or their last. Continue to pray for yourself, others, and especially those in Oklahoma. They need it the most.

Ciao Lovies and See Ya At The Top!

For The Fellas: Dapper Dudes In The Making...

My absolute FAVE Dapper Dude, LA Reed!

Say A Little Prayer...

Good Morning Lovies!

Yesterday was a rough day for Bostonians, Americans and all of our international guests that came to participate in the marathon. The images shown on the news and the web brought back so many painful memories of September 2011. Although our nation suffered another tragic loss, I took great pleasure in watching the people come together as one to care for those that were injured, scared, and lost. Seeing those random acts of kindness displayed on my TV not only warmed my heart, it made me proud to be an American. Although we, the United States, have our dysfunctional moments as a country, we really know how to come together during adverse times. Race, religion, sexual preference, and political beliefs no longer matter. We come together as one and help our brothers and sisters. Today lovies, I ask that you take a minute and say a little prayer for our country, the Bostonians, our international guests, our political leaders, law enforcement agencies, and EVEN the sick, demented person who carried out this senseless act of violence. God bless you all and most importantly, God bless the United States of America!

For The Fellas: Keep It Classy...

Hey Fellas!

As much as you may want to deny it, you can't help but LOVE JT and his oh-so dapper style. He's come a long way from his 'N Sync days (I mean, really...the Jheri Curl? Not so cool JT). Long gone are the days of the Jheri Curl, metallic pants, and other random 'fashion' (using that term loosely) pairings. JT is coming at us grown man style and he even let us know with his chart topping hit, 'Suit and Tie' featuring none other than Jay-Z! You fellas could learn a thing or two from Mr. Timberlake...ain't nothing wrong with rockin a suit and tie every once in a while.

Take a peek at JT's style over the years and really appreciate where he came from (and pray that he doesn't revert back to The Curl and those crazy clothes) to where he is now. He's definitely had a Drake moment when it comes to his fashion choices...he started from the bottom now he here!

Ciao fellas and see ya at the TOP!

STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM...

NOW HE'S HERE...

For The Fellas: I LOVE A Man In A Nice Cardigan...

It's been a while since I've posted anything...as always I apologize for the hiatus. As always, things are a zoo in my world, but I like it that way.

As you all know, I like to do a little sumn...sumn for the fellas every once in a while because although they'd never admit it publicly, I know they enjoy fashion just as much as the ladies! So in the spirit of keeping my guys up to date on what's going on in the fashion world and offering a little inspiration, I've dedicated this entire week to the fellas! Ladies, if you have a husband, a man, a boo thang, or a good guy friend that enjoys fashion or might need some help upgrading their look send on over to the site. I promise they won't be disappointed.

Alright fellas, this week is for you and we'll start it off with my favorite piece: The Cardigan. I personally have about a million cardigans in about a million different colors. I have no idea when I developed this obsession with cardigans for myself, it just sorta happened. When I started loving cardigans for myself, I started loving them on guys too! Strange, I know, but who cares. Anyway, check out some of these FABULOUS cardigans for men. I am absolutely LOVING the double breasted cardigan. Nothing says FLY like a double breasted cardi!

Slim Fit Cardi...LOVE THIS!

Double Breast Cardi...My ABSOLUTE Fave!

Welcome To The Emerald City...

Hey Lovies! As you all know I've lived in Wichita for six years as of March 13, 2013 and while a lot of people like to talk to me about The Wizard of Oz and call my sweet little Bella, Toto, I really haven't given The Emerald City too much thought untilllllllll I watched the color, Emerald Green, rip the runways during fashion week. Almost every designer incorporated some kind of green into their collection this eyar, so much that I think it's fair to say GREEN may be the new BLACK!

I've always been a fan of the color green, but this season I'm loving it even more! Take a look at the excerpt from OK! Magazine and decide if green will be your go to color this season. I know it's mine and yes, I GOT GREEN in my closet! :)
