Blueprint

how to wear an oxford dress, the beauty beau

My apologies, beauties. I haven’t been posting outfit looks as often as I normally would, but that’s all about to change soon. I shot 7 looks last week and 9 yesterday! This week, I will definitely have at least 3 for you 🙂

For now, I’m trying to keep things as fall as possible like everyone else, though it isn’t even fall yet. I never understood the rush when going into seasons. Can I enjoy my full summer? Haha! This past week my photographer and I shot all fall looks and I swear I nearly fainted in the heat with all those layers. It’s nothing nice trying to conform to the season’s trends in high 80 degree weather and extreme humidity. Not cool at all, guys.

I waited ever so patiently for these heels to arrive. Brittany from Thrifts and Threads, whom I love, featured these heels multiple times on her blog and I have been wanting them ever since. I literally couldn’t find them anywhere except The Iconic, which is only shoppable by Australian residents. *insert “ugh” emoji* That didn’t stop me though. I went through my following on Instagram and sent a DM to an Australian fashion blogger and voila, they were at my doorstep a month later! Well worth the trouble, believe me. They are super comfortable and y’all know I’m feeling my block heels!

Also, I can’t end this without telling you about these ear crawlers from Happiness Boutique! Aren’t they too cute? I love earrings like these that enhance my industrial piercing 🙂 This company offers free shipping, no matter the amount of your order, and they have a customer reward program. Who doesn’t like rewards?! They also host 2 giveaways per month on their site which you can check out at your leisure. My coupon, “thebeautybeau,” will also give you 10% off everything on their site. So many perks 🙂
