Dexie Wharton — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:46:45 +0000

I love this color for a refreshing summer look. Hopefully your complexion works with the color. Lemon or yellow color, as pretty as they are doesn’t work in all skin complexions, contrary to what other people say. I wish it does. But it doesn’t. Anyhoooo here’s an under $100 summer look for yah. Just a simple lemon-lime and black combo .

Lemon Chiffon Mesh Front Dress, $28.50 (M, L)

Black Gladiator Wedge, $13.99

Multi Bead cord necklace, $8

Beaded teardrop earrings, $4.80

Under $50 SIL Look : Tunic, Shorts & Wedge

Dexie Wharton — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 19:44:16 +0000

Ok, I’m back, and here’s what I wore today. I figured I might as well show you, right? But first I must say that today I wanted to look like a HOT Mama. See, I’ve been wearing my gladiator sandals a lot (shorts, dresses) and as much as I love keeping in with the trend, I wasn’t really feeling like HOT. Maybe trendy Mama, but not Hot Mama. I was comfy but not hot. So instead of the usual flats with shorts, I decided to add some height, hence the wedge. I wasn’t about to wear pumps with shorts. I love it ala Anne Hathaway, but that will be over indulging right yonder where I live.. LOL. So wedge was the best option. Anyhooooooo

CATO floral tunic, $7.99
green shorts, $10
Mossimo 2 toned knot wedge, $12
Calla croc satchel, prize ($90)
Twisted Silver beatnik bracelet, gift
sterling silver watch, gift
sunnies, $10
overall total : $39.99

I know what you’re thinking. The pink and black top with green shorts? Well I wasn’t really thinking about color scheme today. I wanted to wear the top and I know with it’s retro print, I have to wear something solid with it. I wore a denim short yesterday so I didn’t want another denim one today. I figured the green will go with the tan brown bag..hehe. It looks fine, right? I know the people looking at me today weren’t thinking of the colors combo, heh!

My Gladiator Flats For $8

Dexie Wharton — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 11:31:57 +0000

I’ve shown you guys a preview of my gladiator flats yesterday, now here’s a closer look. I found it for $7.99 at CATO. I love wearing with with everything, pretty much. With shorts, jeans, dresses, and I’m one of these days with a skirt. More pictures after the fold…

If you haven’t bought a pair of gladiator flats for yourself, I suggest you do it now before the trend goes away. Right now it’s stylish to wear it, don’t know how long it would last though. But I’m sure I’ll still be wearing mine thereafter coz they’re comfy and cute .

I’ve seen a lot of celebs rocking the garden floral dress with heels look these days so I thought I’d create one for us too. Unfortunately though the floral bubble dress I first found is only available in size S . But don’t worry coz I’ll keep looking for other dresses for M and L sizes. Just keep coming back

Floral Bubble Dress, $34.80

Black crisscross peep-toe slingback pumps, $10.99

OVERALL TOTAL : $45.79

A black clutch would go nicely with this ensemble.
