Days Lost

Unused Photos

Its been a while since I've updated my blog.  Mostly because Theo needed to be fix ( Theo is my Mac) lol. And not having the options of connecting to the interweb has done me good.  Plus, its been too hot to actually give a hell about what you wear in New Orleans so I didn't feel like taking pictures or doing anything else but trying to stay cool. Sad, I know.

Anyway, back to the good of lacking a computer did me.  Without my computer I started going through my things to find what I wanted to sell for my garage sell. And while I was cleaning and separating my wants from my sell, I found my old journal. You every rediscover something that instantly made you smile?  My journal is it.  Looking through it, seeing the words and the drawing that I was doing a few years ago made me wonder if growing up means that sometimes we not only gain certain knowledge but we lose it too. Seeing the poems that I wrote about love, insecurity, hurt, pain, about my life made me remember that not too long ago I was not the confident girl that I'am today. Looking at the notes and pictures of things I would like to do, know, or go made me remember that I have not achieved all my goals yet, and made me happy for the new ones I set for myself.  It made me notice that I sometimes get so caught up in the world of the internet: facebook, twitter, tumblr, ichat, and everything else that I forget what it feels like to just sit and be.  In the days without my computer I rediscover music I love, my love for writing, my love for reading about ancient Eastern religion, cutting out pics in old magazines,  I discover my love for just being.

July's Purchases.

Sunglasses: Chloe, Bag: Coach Vintage Seafoam green leather bag, Crop Top: Urban Outfitters, Shoes: DV by Dolce Vita, Jacket: Vintage,  Fragrance: Gucci Flora Pink Edition.


Hey everyone. I've been on a little hiatus mostly because it just to damn hot to do anything and care about what I wear. Sometimes I felt like not wearing anything. But that wouldn't be polite HAHA.  Anyway these are a few things that I pick up last month and I love every one of these items. The Chloe glasses I've been wearing non-stop they are so huge and cool. Every time I have them on people do a double. Or maybe thats just in my mind.  The coach bag I found on Ebay for  a steal, as well as the jacket. The DV by Dolce Vita boots are killer and quite comfortable. I will be rocking these piece a lot over the fall and winter season. Especially the boots and the jacket.  Well I'm off to work now which it seems thats all I do. I work 30 + hours this week and next week too.
On another note this Saturday during White Linen Night I'll be attending an art show that a friend part together for the event, so look out for that post. Also I'll be taking a break from my busy schedule to chill with my BF Lesly  when she comes into town.

Active Yellow

Character Hero Jacquard Tank: Urban Outfitters, Jeans: French Connection,  Adidas SLVR Wedges, Watch: Fossil, Bag and Sunglasses: Thrift Store

For days now it has been raining non-stop. It will rain for 2 hours and stop for an hour. I can't even remember what a sunny day looks like. Wearing my Adidas SLVR shoes have been the closes thing to an outdoor sunny day activity that I could do. It is suppose to rain the rest of these week. Hopefully next week is different because I have a couple of cool piece that I want to show to you and this rain is cramping my style. 

Well at least I have no reason not to stay home and do homework.

Pink and YSL

YSL Tank& Earrings: Gnome; Kimchi &Blue Paperbag Trouser: Urban Outfitters, Wedges: Jeffrey Campbell, Bag: Tracy Reese, Watch: Nixon, Necklace: Disney Couture.

Hey everyone, its been a while. I've just been crazy busy especially during Essence Fest and the Long 4th of July weekend. This has been the first day in a while since I have had the chance to sit down and not have to do anything really.  
Anyway, the Kimchi & Blue trouser was a must have after I saw a customer try them on in the Rust color. Unfortunately she brought the last pair in my size and that color :-(.  The funny thing about the pink trouser is that their surprisingly versatile plus their very comfortable to wear. So trust that you will be seeing them again.


Well I'm off  to settle in and read Out of Africa.

Sunny & Sheer

Vintage Sheer Jacket: Thrift Store, Shorts: BDG Urban Outfitters, Tank: Urban Outfitters, Shoes: BCBG, Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters, Rings: Ebay and Brooklyn Flea Market


I don't know how long I've been having this jacket that I found at the thrift store. It came with a skirt but for some reason can't find it.  It's soooooo sad. The jacket is a little dress thats why I wore it with my tank and shorts to bring the super dressy factor down.  I've been seeing the sheer jacket trend all over the place.  I'm loving the trend just not the price that it takes to wear it.  Plus most of them are super long and I'm not tall at all. Well, off to do some school work that I was suppose to do this weekend.

Native Animal

Shirt: Urban Outfitters, Skirt: Thrift store, Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell, Sunglasses: Ebay, Watch: Nixon, Jewelry: Random

Man its hot in New Orleans, hot and sticky so for all of you NYC complaining about heat, I'll trade spots with you any day you like.

Anyway,  I've been having this crop top in my closet since last month and was suppose to wear it to Jazz-fest but that don't work out. I love the fringe and how oversize it is. Plus this the only way that I could and would wore a crop shirt at this moment. The skirt I had for ages and what I put them together, it was the perfect mix of  Native, Animal and Urban. The shoes haven't been worn since my fall in them in Atlanta lol. And since I pledged to wear more of my shoes  here they are.

All American Girl

Dress & Vest: Thrift Store, Shoes: Ebay, Purse: T.J Maxx, Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters, Watch: Fossil

Hey everyone, its been a while. I finally got the internet fix and back on today. AT&T you still suck but thank you for doing your job ( that I pay you for). Anyway, the day this pictures was taken I let my mom pick out my outfit. It is a little too girly for me, and my only input was the denim vest.  Yet, it doesn't look half bad. I'm starting to get into wearing heels or wedges more often, and I must admit that it does adds a certain ump to your outfit. 

Well since I have the internet back I should be posting more. And with one of my best friends is coming into town this weekend I should have tons of pictures.  

Now I'm off to finish my French homework and studying for my test tomorrow.

Bonne Journée

Orange Sorbet and Dots

Jacket, Shorts, Sunglasses: Thrift Store, Shoes: Forever21, Tracy Reese Bag and Necklace: Buffalo Exchange, Watch: Nixon, Cuff: Random, Snake Ring: Gnome

Yesterday I had the chance to hit up the Salvation Army half price sale that happens every Wednesday and Saturday. I found a couple of things but the big score of the day was a DFV vintage orange and hot pink silk blouse I could not even enjoy because it was a size small.  I still brought it because I plan on selling it to a local buy-trade store.  What I did find and could enjoy was an awesome navy blue members only jacket in prefect condition, a pair of polk-dot shorts, and two gold mugs that are pretty kick ass.

Other good news my internet should be on tomorrow,YEAH!!!!!!!!  But AT&T still sucks. Well I'm off to do some work.

Peace & Love.........LivvyV
