Winter Blues

Royal blue is one of my favorite colors and this year I was on a mission to find the perfect winter jacket. I had that vision of what I wanted...you all know what I am talking about.  When I shop, I usually know exactly what I want and can walk into a store, look around and within about 5 minutes know if that perfect piece is there!

I haven't bought a new winter jacket, a nice one, for a years...and I am not even joking.  And with swimsuit season right around the corner, I knew now would be the perfect time to. One word, sales! I hit up Macy's first because they usually have a great selection of different designers, colors, styles, etc.  It took me about 15 minutes to find the style I wanted and of course I went straight to the Michael Kors section because well, let's be real, he's my fav!  Not to mention, the quality is there and I know I would be able to have this piece for years.  I went back and forth on color for about 10 seconds, then I saw the blue, with gold hardware, and done.  I think I almost fainted! 

I had a little help from my Mom to find the right size, but she did it! Let's just say the extra-small I tried on first and not to mention had a hold of like people do things on Black Friday...nobody is getting their hands on this, was a tad too small in the shoulders.  So you can imagine me, looking around frantically for a small...but she saved the day, they had one! Whew! Half off the original price and did you know that Macys always has coupons online, so another $20 off, just by googling, I love to google!  

This jacket is perfection! Royal blue, wool, gold hardware, belt...I am drooling right now and I already own it. Whether you are a North Face kind of girl or a Michael Kors kind of girl or both, now is the time to buy!  It's goes perfectly with the MK watch too :) Told you, he is my favorite! 




Happy Shopping!

Fox 4 Appearance with Jana Meister

When I had to opportunity to be on the Fox 4 Morning Show with Jana Meister for Spring Trends recently, I took it!  She is awesome to work with and plus I knew I would get to wear some fabulous clothes!  And, hair and makeup...sign me up!  We arrived early one morning about 7:30 to get started. We were taken to the infamous "green room", and yes they do exist. I was familiar with this room from my previous appearance wearing Nani Nalu Swimwear.  Fox 4 is just like what you would picture...busy, busy, busy...people everywhere getting ready for segments all throughout the day.  We were scheduled in the 9 o'clock hour so that gave us plenty of time to get primped.

My outfit was perfection...dark ripped skinny jeans, pointy flats, a soft shear cream-colored blouse, an amazing navy blue bomber jacket and a cute Guess handbag.  The outfit was from The Buckle, and although I never shop there for some reason, it was spot on. I actually went and ordered the jeans as soon as I left the show.  Hey, when a girl finds a pair of jeans that fit perfect, she buys them! This outfit is great for transitioning into the Springtime when you still need a light-weight jacket for those chilly mornings.

I love working with Jana!  And another great surprise is that Dani Jo and Roxana, who I had the pleasure of meeting on my birthday at the Glam Gals KC event, was there to make us all beautiful. They are great to work with and even though I was super concerned about my "eyebrows", Dani Jo is a professional...why did I even question that?  My hair was fixed in a way I would never do, but it turned out super cute, Roxana did an awesome job.  They will definitely be my go-to girls if I ever need to look and feel glam!
