I live in Raleigh, which is the capital of the state of North Carolina.  As with other cities, we’ve experienced tremendous growth in the past several years.  In the midst of all the growth I’ve seen the struggle to maintain a community orientation, which has made me a strong advocate of not only supporting locally owned small businesses, but bringing awareness to them.  I appreciate the personal customer service and values of independent businesses compared to national chains, which can sometimes be overlooked when we’re trying to get the most bang for our buck. Today I’m featuring the “ESTHERLIE” pumps by “The Ronke Sarumi Footwear” (RSF), pronounced (Roan-keh Sa-roo-me), which is a locally owned small business near Raleigh, NC.  I love the RSF brand philosophy, which is that women should look beautiful from the crown of their heads to the soles on their feet.  I couldn’t agree more! I was afforded an opportunity to style “ESTHERLIE”.  To my surprise they arrived so beautifully gift-wrapped finished in a gorgeous bow.  I didn’t even want to open the package.  Once I finally convinced myself to remove them from the box, I fell in love with the deep, rich mustard color and chiffon shoe accessory.  They’re also available in a beautiful hunter green color that’s perfect for fall.  Upon trying them on I was even more delighted that I didn’t have to sacrifice comfort for glamour in these stunning pumps.  As you can see I paired them with a lace peplum bustier and polka dot pencil skirt. In conclusion, these gorgeous heels totally lived up to my expectations!  They are indeed exquisite,...

Happy Fashion Friday! I felt like getting a little unconventional with my outfit today.  Lately I’ve been mixing stripes with flowers, but decided to take it up a notch.  Similar to leopard, stripes can be treated like a neutral, and be mixed with various other patterns, usually of the same color scheme.  What makes this outfit beyond normal is the two different colors of stripes on stripes. With stripes on stripes, if you stay within the same complementary color scheme, the outfit will not clash.  I paired these stripes with a fun tulle t-shirt I found for $12 while thrifting. Stripes on stripes can be a bit risky, but fashion is all about taking risks!  What do you think?  Would you try to recreate this look? // Tulle t-shirt Skirt (thrift) // // Black White Stripe Pencil Skirt (similar here) // // Chanel Sunnies CH5175 C9003C Womens Black frame with white arms // // ShoeDazzle Nena by Madison Pumps (here) // // Pearls (personal collection) // Reveal Cosmetics Foundation (here) // Photography by:  Em Grey Photography I hope everyone is gearing up for a fun, relaxing, and revitalizing weekend!
