glisten in the heat..













Outfit
Top: Bar III via Macys only $9 fashion STEELE!
Skirt: American Apparel
Sunnies: Thrifted from The Vintage Twin Trunk Show (There is another one Aug 1st!)
Shoes: Jessica Simpson Dany
Bracelet: c/o  J. Rudy Lewis Jewelry
Lip: MAC Morange see it worn differently here

OMG when I took these photos it was flaming hot outside. I decided to wear the least amount of clothing possible but that didn't help. Sorry for the extra glisten lol. Thank goodness for the rain today. I just walked 8 blocks in it without an umbrella...so refreshing O_o
So I got this amazeballs bracelet at the Fashionable Fridays Event I attended with the
 NYC Fashion Bloggers Meetup Group.
 It's by J. Rudy Lewis and I love it so much. The leather and the pearl really got me. 
Sweet with edge just like me..lol.
Yall know I loves me a bustier type top like this one and this one and when I saw this at Macy's I searched high and low for a medium but couldn't find one. This is a large and fits surprisingly well.
Stay tuned..will be giving away a J. Rudy Lewis Jewelry piece soon

    I love the top, I've got a similar one but floral, I just haven't been brave enough to wear it out properly yet, I've only worn it under loose vests really... One day!
