<u><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">My opinion on the collection:</span></b></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I absolutely love Sarah Jessica Parker's new shoe collection! In my opinion, Sarah definitely has a future as a shoe designer. The collection is a more affordable version of the Manolo Blahnik shoe brand and after researching, turns out Mrs. Parker actually teamed up with the Manolo Blahnik CEO to create her line. This doesn't surprise me at all, as we know, Carrie Bradshaw loved her some Manolo's in Sex and the City. I love that this collection sort of goes back to that classic, feminine style that it seems like we have started to steer away from now days. This brand is more for that classic, old fashioned, sophisticated woman who likes to spend her money on good quality and timeless pieces. The Jackie O's & Audrey Hepburn's of today will surely appreciate this new line. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Facts about the SJP shoe collection:</span></b></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-The shoe collection was made in Italy </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">(Italy knows how to make a good pair of shoes don't they?) </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-The prices will range from $150 to just under $500 </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-Most of her shoes will have a signature ribbon strip down the back of the heel</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-A few of the shoes were given a name based off of the Sex and the City show. There is one shoe in particular called the "Carrie"</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-The collection includes a few handbags and a trench coat called the "Manhattan"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">-Sara Jessica Parker herself will be presenting her new collection at a select few locations. To find out more information, visit <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/sjp-sarah-jessica-parker">Nordstrom.com</a>!</span></div>

Over the past two weekends I have done some MAJOR retail therapy and for my Valentines day date I decided to pull out this new dress that I found from Nordstrom Rack (You'll never believe how much I paid for it!!). I chose this dress because its sexy yet sophisticated at the same time. I absolutely fell in love with the bold print of the dress along with the razor back cut, bodycon fit and midi length.<br />
<br />
Since the dress was so bold already and speaks for itself, I decided to pair it with accessories that weren't going to over power the dress. I chose to pair this sexy number with a simple camel & black suede heel and a black metal detailed handbag (without the attached chain that you see below). <br />

As you all know I am a blogger on a budget and I am all about finding good deals.<br />
I bet you cant guess how much I paid for each of these pieces. Take a guess....<br />
<br />
Drum Roll please... <br />
<br />
Dress: Originally $50 - I paid <b>$9.87</b>(w/o tax)<br />
Shoes: Originally $65 - I paid <b>$30.27</b> (with tax)<br />
Handbag: Originally $59.99 - I paid <b>$7.98</b> (w/o tax)<br />
<br />
Now this fashionista's, is what you call the definition of shopping the look for less. You don't have to spend a ton of money on all of the expensive designer brands just to look and feel like a million bucks. This complete look was under $50 and received tons of compliments when I wore it.<br />
I am challenging you all to see what kind of deals you can find out there!<br />
<br />
Feel free to leave me comments! <br />
<br />
Enjoy! xoxoxo<br />

<a href="http://www.polyvore.com/january_wish_list/set?.embedder=9236766&.svc=blogger&id=109785472" target="_blank"><img alt="January Wish List" border="0" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/WrSvNE3iLrOC6YQzwuVyfw/cid/109785472/id/5J4Zq5V54xGrKy5AlJXARQ/size/c600x475.jpg" force="1" height="316" title="January Wish List" width="400" /></a></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since I am a look for less kinda gal I try to limit
my shopping budget to $300 a month, I know it’s not much but when you
have bills to pay and you’re trying to build up your savings account, having
a $300 shopping budget is a privilege. Unless
I need to make that occasional expensive purchase on a nice handbag or a
pair of well-deserved shoes, I try to stick to my monthly
budget.<br />
<br />
Since it is January, you will see that there are sales left and
right as retailers are trying to get rid of their
winter clothes to make room for their new spring and summer wardrobe
that’s about to be shipped in. Being that I need to get my winter
wardrobe game up I wanted to focus my January wish list on some winter
essentials that I will need to finish out this winter
and can be of use to me for next winter. A nice coat can easily cost
you over 300
bucks, so why not buy it now when its half that price. Everything that I chose are simple and timeless pieces, since I want to get use out of this next year I didn't want to choose anything that may or may come next winter. Hope you like my January Picks!<br />
<br />
P.S. if you noticed, most of my looks are on sale, this is the best time to shop for next years winter wardrobe! <br />

<br />
Happy Hump Day!<br />
A little
fun topic I wanted to bring into my blog was doing a celebrity style off
where I compare 2 celebrities to get everyone's opinion on who is the
fiercest when it comes to style. For today's celebrity style off I
decided to kick it off with the two most talked about "bad" girls,
Rihanna and Miley Cyrus.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
As we all know, Miley and Rihanna have had their
fair share of media attention, they are always in the press about
everything from their relationship drama to their drastic hair
changes. One thing’s for sure, these two ladies don’t care
what anyone thinks when it comes to their style or their behavior. </div>
Currently, the naked “Wrecking Ball”
singer and the Doobi wrapped (her hair style at the AMA's) Barbados pop star are two of the most
controversial and talked about fashion risk takers of our generation.
Which of the two do you think is the fiercest when
it comes to style and why?<br />

Hannah
Montana was just a character she played and now that the show is over
she is able to show the world who she really is. She cut her long
locks, added some tattoos, shed some clothes and
now she’s clearly no longer that girl we used to watch on TV. I’m not
an advocate of her x-rated behavior and some of the things that she does
but I admire that at the end of the day she says what she wants, wears
what she wants and does what she wants and
doesn’t care what anyone has to say about it (Hence her VMA
performance with Robin Thicke). As far as her style
is concerned, when her hair isn’t in little girl pig tails I like the
blonde short cut on her, she definitely rocks it well.. Miley has a very effortless street style that I like. Ever
heard of NastyGal.com? Her style reminds me of
the whole NastyGal concept, she’s someone who likes to push the
boundaries of how a woman should be, her street style is very relaxed
and effortless and has absolutely no filter.</div>

Rihanna first came out with her debut
song titled Pon de Replay, she was a very simple and seemed to have that
"girl next door" look, I had no idea that she would turn into the
person she is now until her song “Umbrella” came out.
Rihanna is such a trendsetter. Every time she tries something new
with her hair you can almost bet that you will see a few ladies chop or
color their hair to keep up with her. Rihanna has us “Normal”
people whipped, we are constantly looking up to
her for fashion trends and hair ideas. Rihanna’s style consists of
statement pieces…its never to simple or to ordinary, she likes to cross
dress sometimes with baggy pants and pant suits and I also notice that
she tends to mix feminine pieces with masculine pieces. She really
plays off of the whole edgy look. </div>

<b>RIHANNA</b>,
not only is this barbados beauty the person we all look to for the next
fashion trends or hair/beauty tips but she is a well rounded business
woman. I like Miley's effortless street style but her over the top
behavior does over shadow her style (in my opinion), we tend to pay more
attention to her twerking and sticking her tongue out than we do to
what she's wearing.</div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Hi Fashionista's!</span><span style="text-align: left;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is officially 2014!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The new year is always such an exciting time of year as you feel like you are given the opportunity to start fresh. Bad habits that you had in the previous year(s) can now be put to rest and you are able to turn over a new leaf by setting some resolutions of things that you want to change in the coming year whether it be working out more, eating healthy, being positive, etc...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the spirit of a fresh start, I am going to tell you how to keep a fresh and healthy face with my skin cleaning regimen. How many of you have spent so much money on trying to find the perfect skin care regimen based off of what you've seen on TV or what the celebs are using? (Be honest, Im guilty of this...). I know that we like to follow the celebs sometimes but at the end of the day we have to remember that what works for them isn't what's going to work for us. We are all uniquely made with different types of skin and different types of skin problems. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here are my go to products that I use twice a day to achieve clear, healthy skin.</div>

<br />
When waking up in the morning <u>and</u> after a long day of work, these are my go to products to get my face clean and makeup free. I have been using these products for about 2-3 years now and I love what it does for my skin. What I like about the Clinique skin care line is how it's not generic and made for just one skin type. Depending on if your skin is primarily oily, dry, or a combination of the two, clinique has different formulas in their products specific to <u>your</u> skin type. For my daily moisturizer I like to use Vantex by Fashion Fair which is a skin bleaching creme, if you have an uneven skin tone like I do, you will need a product similar to this to help get your skin tone even.<br />

<b>Skin Care Cleaning Steps</b>:<br />

<b>TIPS:</b><br />
-Invest in your skin<br />
-You don't have to have the most expensive skin care products to achieve beautiful skin<br />
-Try getting samples of products before spending tons of money on a product that may or may work for your skin<br />
-Talk to a skin care professional<br />
<br />
I apologize for making this post so lengthy, I get a little excited when talking about skin care (as if you didn't notice). Have a great week everyone and remember YOU are beautiful!<br />

Hey Fashionista's! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
This weekend with the crazy Dallas weather, I started getting cabin fever from being stranded in the house all day on Friday (Don't get me wrong, I'm so glad i got a day off from work) so Saturday I took a risk and got out on those icey rodes to go have a drink at this new restaurant called Mexican Sugar. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found this Mauve top last summer and this was my first time wearing
it. I scored this cute blouse on sale from Francesca's Collections for just 9
bucks! I know, super cheap right?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From the pictures it's probably hard for you all to tell, but what makes this top so unique is the bold zipper detail down the middle of the shirt and the chic poof shoulders. I decided to pair this with black jeans and light accessories because I didnt want to take away from the detail of the shirt by adding a necklace or anything too loud. Hope you like this chic yet simple look for a chill night out! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Enjoy! </div>

<b>Hi Fashionista's! </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Man, this Dallas weather has been super crazy, we have been hit with an "Arctic Blast" this past weekend. Thank God I was able to go out last weekend and take some photo's for the blog! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I am sure everyone is aware of the whole Denim & Leather (or Pleather in my case hahaha) CRAZE so I decided to play around and combine the two. I fell in love with this look and decided to add a POP of color by adding these fabulous heels from Zara.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>What I wore: </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Top: Abercrombie & Fitch; Skirt: H&M; Shoes: Zara (I found these cuties at the Zara located in Milan this summer); Handbag: Tory Burch</div>
<br />
What do you guys think about this look? How would you mix the two biggest trends of the season?<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

These shoes will run you about $1500... Yikes! Right? <br />
<br />
Anyway, I have been trying to find a look similar to this because I know that with my shopping budget at the moment, that I am not able to just throw out over $1500 on shoes. <br />
<br />

<br />
A couple of weeks back I hit the jackpot and found these fabulous caged ankle boots from <a href="http://www.zara.com/us/en/woman/shoes/open-work-high-heel-leather-sandal-c269191p1751091.html" target="_blank">Zara.</a><br />
<br />
From the moment that I stepped out in these baby's I have received rave reviews. This may sound like a shocker but the shoe is actually very comfortable and the heel height is 3.94˝ which isn't high at all, this may contribute a lot to why the shoe is so comfortable. <br />

These Faboulous Finds retail for $99.90, gives you that same YSL caged shoe boot effect but for less. <br />

A little bit about myself… </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My name is Chloe Iman, I am a Texas Native who’s lived
everywhere from the small city of Beaumont, to Houston, to now living in the big
City of Dallas. Since moving to Dallas
in middle school I discovered my love for the art of fashion. Anything related to fashion whether it be
books, blogs, tv shows, or fashion shows just sends chills down my spine. Growing up, I have always been sort of a shy
introvert and finally at the age of 23 I have decided to live out loud and
follow my dream, who cares what other people think right?? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With all that we have to pay for in our day to day lives, trying to keep up
with all of the latest fashion trends and all of the expensive clothes that
some of our celebs and bloggers inspire us to wear, sometimes keeping up with
the Kardashians can become quite the task.
Ladies, I am here to tell you that I am all for blogging on a budget and
the look for less. Don’t get me wrong I
do agree quality over quantity but there is absolutely nothing wrong with
finding some fashion forward pieces from your affordable retail stores and/or
thrift shops. Whether everyone thinks so
or not what we wear is important. It is
a way of self expression and it says a lot about us as a person and our
personality. Through the Stylesider, I
hope that you all can see that you too <u>can</u> be stylish wherever you go,
even with a budget. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Hopefully you will follow my fashion journey and be inspired
by my canvas of looks and beauty tips. Feel free to leave comments...</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Enjoy! </div>
