Mural, Mural on the Wall

Mural, Mural on the Wall

Happy Friday everyone, I’ve always loved street art, graffiti, and murals because of their creative, inspiring and unrestricted ability to capture my attention.  It’s been refreshing to see a lot of cities embracing colorful streets and walls by artists from all walks of life who are able to tell stories and express themselves in such a unique way. To my surprise, my recent visit to the Gestamani neighborhood of Cartagena, Columbia topped all of the places I’ve ever traveled to for having such an abundance of diverse beautiful artistic expressions.  It was such a cool neighborhood.  I’ve decided share some of my favorite murals from the trip.  I wish every country was this colorful!     Photography by SherriaTravels, Sherria29_Photography, SherriaAroundTheWorld What I’m Wearing: // Cartagena Headwrap // Fanm Djanm // Pom-Pom Hoop Earrings // J.Crew // Off Shoulder Crop Top/Maxi Skirt // ShoeDazzle // Keira Flat Gladiator Sandals // ShoeDazzle   Love, The Ultimate...
Give Me My Flowers

Give Me My Flowers

“Give me my flowers while I can still smell them” is what first came to mind when I saw this beautiful floral mural.  I don’t know how long this quote has been around, it still holds true today.  We should always strive to show people how much they mean to us while we can. On another note, it’s my birthday month and I’m strutting into the next year just as happy as I can be! Getting older is such a privilege, and I never take that for granted.  This floral mural was perfect the perfect backdrop for this vintage style monochrome outfit.  I’ve always been a huge fan of black and white because it’s so eye-catching, classy and timeless.  Since some of these pieces are vintage, I’ve found some similar pieces to recreate this look.  I hope you enjoy this post darlings!  If you do, please leave me a comment letting me know how so. Until next time, Muah!

Luxury shopping at affordable prices

Luxury shopping at affordable prices

Happy Friday everyone, Who else besides me loves to find high end quality items at affordable prices?  As a Fashion Stylist and Blogger I get asked all the time where I shop, and it’s no secret that it’s everywhere!  Today I’m sharing one of my absolute favorite places to shop in North Carolina, where I constantly find luxury items for amazingly great prices. Have you heard of National Pawn?  If not you’re in for a treat! I had the wonderful opportunity to go on a mini shopping spree at their Fleetwood Drive store in Raleigh, North Carolina earlier this week.  This location is one of sixteen stores in the state, and is one of their larger stores in the Triangle.  As usual I browsed around for a short time, but it didn’t take long to spot several items I wanted to purchase. One of the things I love about shopping at National Pawn is they literally have everything!  You never know what you’re going to find.  They specialize in luxury brands, and in that regard are much more like a high end consignment shop rather than a pawn shop.  From designer jewelry, designer handbags, electronics, to home items, they are absolutely your one stop shop for high quality items.  The best part about it is they have layaway, which makes purchasing big ticket items a breeze. Secondly, the staff is always so nice and helpful.  They don’t hover over you while shopping and genuinely want to make sure you’re happy with your purchases.  Naomi assisted me with the purchase of my David Yurman silver bracelet, which was the perfect...
Conquer The World in a Statement Jumpsuit

Conquer The World in a Statement Jumpsuit

Hello my Loves, I hope you’re having an excellent day and great start to the week!  Have you considered wearing a wide-leg jumpsuit that finishes just above the ground? If not you may want to reconsider, as it will add some serious style to your wardrobe.  This Printed Crossbody Jumpsuit by ShoeDazzle will have you feeling like conquering the world and glamorous all at the same time.  There’s a jumpsuit style for every body type, but this style looks great if you’re tall.  If you’re short I recommend a slim, straight-leg, cropped style. I’ll admit, most people don’t like jumpsuits because they’re not exactly  the most convenient when it’s time to go. LOL! On top of that they can be tricky to pull off, but if you find the right style for your body type they are so worth it because they create such a striking look.

Sea of Sunflowers

Sea of Sunflowers

Happy Saturday Loves, I hope your summer is off to a great start! Today I’m hanging out with the happiest flower on earth.  Lost in a sea of these sunflowers reflecting on their beauty, rich history and meaning.  The sunflower symbolizes adoration, loyalty and longevity, which are attributes I cherish and uphold. And speaking of adore, sundress season is here and I love these type of pretty dresses in the summertime.  This sexy sleeveless floral maxi dress by ShoeDazzle features a plunging V-neck, ruffle trim detail, and high front slit.  The colors are very vibrant and it’s cool and breezy, which is definitely needed in the hot temperatures we’ve been having already. I may look calm and collective up to now, but in case you’re wondering why I’m laughing so hard in this next shot, it’s because I thought my ponytail was a bee!  I screamed out loud a few times throughout the rest of the shoot, and my photographer thought I was cray. LOL!  I really wish y’all could be behind the scenes some days so you can see what really goes into these shoots.  They can be so hilarious.  I wouldn’t trade it for the world though.  Overall this day was like a dream come true, being in such a magical place surrounded by such beautiful and happy flowers!
