"Who Am I You Ask?!"

I love fashion and food and getting the beat deals and recipies on the two! When it comes to styling and shopping I don't discriminate. I mix and match the high end with the low end. I'll share my style, cosmetic secrets and recepies, and show you how to create "new" outfits and dishes weekly. While I love to shop, style and cook for family and friends, a girls gotta work. Currently I work in the public safety profession. Prior to public safety I was a radio personality for more than 10 years, which is where I became my most fashion forward self! I've styled for local videos and hair magazines. Whatever my "real" job," I've always been the stylist to friends, and even foes!

Signature Style


Signature - sig·na·ture 
A distinctive mark, characteristic, or sound indicating identity.


My three signature standouts...Coats, Cuffs and Boots! I love the ability to make a statement, subtle and otherwise with any of these items. 


Cuffs

"GreenCuffz" Original :)


Most days you can find one, sometimes two of my wrists arrested by cuffs! Cuffs are  bracelets that fit closely around your wrist or upper arm, and in most cases don't have a clasp. I have the best cuff collection! Cuffs for work & cuffs for play. I've never spent more than $25 on my cuffs. Although I've desired some that cost soooo much more! Now I've started my very own "GreenCuffz" Collection. Really!  The "GreenCuffz" tm are made, recycled or re-created from various clothes, embellishments from shoes and or accessories.  I bought my first cuff from a yard sale in a chic beach neighborhood about 7 years ago. I've been "cuffing" ever since. Yes I used the word cuff as a verb! :) See the newest "GreenCuffz"




Outerwear/Coats
 Coat given to me from a
co-worker who knew I love Vintage! Feel
like Foxy Brown!
Coats serve a practical and individual style trifecta: they keep you warm, dry and FLY!!! "Fly" would be the urban version of Paris Hilton's, "That's Hot!" My favorite style of outerwear is vintage, followed by leather. However I'm also prone to rock a classic Burburry poncho from a few seasons back. I've found my favorite coats in vintage or second hand clothing stores in large cities. Do yourself a favor. Anytime you travel to a major city be sure to do a Google search for these stores. They are treasure troves for one of a kind pieces that set your style apart.  Photos coming!


Boots
My boots send off smoke signals and bring the most attention of my three signature

styles. Boots can set off a look with jeans, dresses, shorts, or jumpers. I've tried them all. In the fall and winter, at least half my work week is heeled in boots. "BWS," Boots with Stilts are my weakness. I am able to do all things tall in my BWS, and say things like," I can reach that," or " "I CAN ride that ride!" If the Boots have a built in platform or outside platform, I must own them. Every year I buy one pair of semi expensive boots. The rest of the year I flow with trendier and less expensive styles. A must have pair of boots are classic black leather, with pointed toe. Worn with a pencil skirt, or jeans tucked inside, these boots will take you to work or weekend game. Photos on the way!
