Golden Elegance

Hi beauties!

It is such a gorgeous day out, you know, one of those days where the sun is shining and the weather is not too warm not too cold, perfect!

We had very minor errands to do today, which allowed for us to truly enjoy the day. We did, however, pick up a present for my sister-in-law's birthday, which is absolutely beautiful and I'm sure she'll love it, I don't want to mention what it is, just in case, you never know ;) But I did want to share with you what happened to me a little earlier. I was crossing my street, while a school bus stopped to let a child, who lives across the street from me, off the bus. Once he got off, the bus driver sped and almost hit me, so much so that my heart was racing. He did it on purpose and had children in the back seat. I remained in front of his bus and began to take pictures of his bus info, so that I could reference it when I called the bus company to complain. Are you kidding me?! I couldn't believe that a bus driver would do something like that, while children were inside! I immediately thought of my daughter, praying that these types of incidents don't occur while she's on the bus, too! As if there isn't enough things in the world to worry about! Anyway...

While shopping for my sister-in-law's gift, I bumped into these super cute Guess neon pink sandals that were, get this, 75% off!!!! I posted them on my twitter and Instagram accounts, so head on over to check it out, to see what they look like! I can't wait to style them, as you know, neon is one of my favorite trends this season! As for the outfit of choice for the day, I wanted to go with something a bit casual, yet elegant, which is why I opted for this New York & Company silk studded blouse. I LOVE wearing silk when the weather is like how it was today, it feels and looks so luxurious against the skin. I wanted to add some pattern and color, since the blouse and purse is within the same neutral color scheme, which is why I wore these Tory Burch flats! I loved the way the look turned out, with a great emphasis on the gold hardware on the purse, which is featured in my latest YouTube video by the way, and the shoes.
