Wanna Wanna Wednesdays... Forever 21's Geo Tribal Maxi Dress w/ Braided Belt

I don't quite know what it is about getting older, but it's influencing me to step out of my comfort zone. First it was rocking a red lip, then it was wearing white, and now.... I'm daring to go sleeveless!!

I have never been the type to rock a sleeveless dress. I'm always afraid of an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction in public. But I spotted this week's Wanna Wanna Wednesday pick on the fabulous Luanne of Weesha's World, and I was instantly inspired to pick it up and try to rock a similar look!

This gorgeous and thrifty dress ($22.80, Forever21) has a gorgeous braided belt to flaunt the curves. I would totally rock this with a denim top or with a bright sweater for a pop of color!!

What do you think of the Geo Tribal Maxi Dress? How would YOU rock it?!?

Wanna Wanna Wednesdays: Free Spirit Batik Cover-Up from Forever21

I'm going to be honest with you all... I MAY wear this as a cover up, but I am definitely going to be rocking this as a cool summer top!!!!! This lightweight top ($24.80, Forever21) would be adorable with a skirt, over a maxi dress, or with a pair of skinny jeans... I can totally see myself rocking this when the weather is super hot out! And I may also rock it on my next trip to the beach!!

Wanna Wanna Wednesdays: Windowpane Cutout Oxfords from Forever21

Just in case you were wondering by my last two Wanna Wanna Wednesday posts that I've become some fashionista who no longer shops on a budget.... I hope this post will alleviate your concerns! LOL

How adorable are these oxfords? I have been dying to get a pair of cutout oxfords and how lovely of the Universe to say, "Here, Audrey. And since you've waited so patiently, we're sending them to you in BLUE... your FAVORITE color!"

These oxfords ($29.80, Forever21) would be awesome with a nice dress, with shorts, with jeans and a tee... I can see myself rocking them all over Brooklyn this summer!!

Wanna Wanna Wednesday... Forever 21's Faded Chambray Shirt

 Fasten your seat belts, y'all... I'm about to clue you in to how my mind works! LOL

So last week, I was super shocked and delighted to see that the Jewelry Set I purchased from I.K. Jewelry arrived a week earlier than anticipated and on my birthday to boot!! I of course tried the pieces on, ooh'd and ahh'd, and knew with some level of certainly that I would be rocking the hell out of those pieces very soon. Which lead me to wonder, with WHAT?!? I could wear them with a simple black sweater, but I'm 35 now and eager to shake up my style.

Then in my mind, I flashed to the image of Teresa Jenee from my post a few weeks ago... and then, I remembered seeing today's Wanna Wanna Wednesday item.. and voilà!! An idea was formed!! LOL

So needless to say this Faded Chambray Shirt ($22.80, Forever 21) is DEFINITELY on my list of items to snatch up, and I am looking forward to wearing them with my jewelry set. The only problem is.. what to wear on the bottom? If you have any ideas, be sure to leave a comment with links and/or suggestions!!

Wanna Wanna Wednesdays... Forever 21's Colorblocked Cutaway Blazer

After being without internet for a few days, I'm so very happy to be back up and running and sharing with you all the newest item added to my Wanna Wanna Wish List. Those of you that have followed this blog for some time know I'm ALL about blazers... I think that the right blazer can make an outfit look hella awesome!!

Forever 21 has really been killing me softly lately with their apparel, so I shouldn't have been surprised to see this GORGEOUS Colorblocked Cutaway Blazer ($29.80, Forever 21). I would so rock this with a pair of skinny jeans, a bright red or yellow shirt and riding boots... I would rock this blazer in the office with a pencil skirt and a lovely camisole underneath.... But the outfit I immediately see in my mind is inspired by the beautiful Weesha's World, and her recent "Tribute to the 80's" outfit post!!

Can you imagine pairing this blazer with the Abstract Print Strapless Jumpsuit ($24.80, F21) my lovely friend is rocking the HELL out of in her post?!? FIERCE!! I think that if I reach my weight loss goal of size 20 by my birthday in November (1 size to go, so it's a do-able goal)... I'm totally going to rock an outfit like this for my birthday celebration.. whatever they may be!!

How are you feeling Forever 21's Colorblocked Cutaway Blazer? What would you rock this blazer with? Leave a comment with your suggestions!!
