Custom-made but NOT Custom-paid








As the world already knows, I'm constantly finding great things on Etsy. I can't help that I'm a fan of handmade, one-of-a-kind items. I stumbled upon this fabulous Lara dress in the myblackdress Etsy shop. Not only is it absolutely adorable but it's also custom made to fit YOU! You send in your measurements and in return have a dress perfectly fitted for your body...no matter the size. And on top of all of that, it's priced under $100. If it gets any better than that, please let me know how!

Fashionably Warm - Part 2








Born and raised in Chicago, I've grown accustomed to the bitter cold winters. Contrary to most, I love wintertime - although, majority of my infatuation with winter is due to the fact that I absolutely adore coats! And since there is no way to avoid having to wear one, you might as well be fashionable when doing so. During my time in London, I fell in love with a store by the name of Dorothy Perkins. Needless to say, when I found out that they now deliver to the U.S., I was ecstatic. Since they are located overseas, they'll always be fashion-forward compared to what we are exposed to in the states. Plus, their prices are reasonable even AFTER considering the exchange rate. Can't beat that!

Check out these coats using the links below and bring a little cheer to those cold-weather blues. You can thank me later. :)
