fatale fashion inspiration

Pictures Taken by My Tripod

What:  Dress - Sealed With A Kiss Designs; Cardigan - Sonama; Havana Belt - Sealed With A Kiss Designs; Tights - Merona; Booties - Sonama; Charm Necklace - Things Remembered; Long Beaded Necklace - ??; Bracelet - ??

Where:  Work, home to help with my son's homework and then I was going to help my soon-to-be-bride friend with her centerpieces this evening, but she canceled.  So I ended up working on my blog and chillin'.



Today's post is special because it is my very first inspirational-look post!  I follow Ariana from fatale fashion.  I always enjoy her outfits.  She posted this outfit on Monday and I thought - Oh my gosh!  Not only is this super cute, but I can actually do it, almost exactly!!  And the rest is history.  This was actually a super easy way to get dressed this morning, as Ariana did most of the work for me!  All I had to do was grab my things and go!  So, what do you think?  Doesn't she look great?  How did I do?


I did do things slightly different.  I wanted to wear my brown havana belt (she did a black belt, black textured tights, and black boots).  I thought this would be a good opportunity to wear my new maroon tights from Target too.  Note about the Target tights...  I don't really like them.  I feel like I am entirely too tall for these tights (though I do fit in the sizing spectrum).  Looks like I really do need to break down and just go ahead and put an order into welovecolors.  But, the Target ones will do for now.  Since I was wearing my brown havana belt, I went with brown boots too!


I put on my brown and teal bracelet my mom bought me a while ago.  I love the color combination of brown and teal!  The necklace was a gift from my parents.  They gave it to me this past Friday when we went out to dinner to celebrate my passing of the Ohio RN NCLEX exam.  I LOVE IT so much!  It has the nursing symbol on one side and the other has "2011" with a little graduation cap on the numbers.  It also has two little charms, a "J" and an "M" for Justine Meyer (me - heehee) with a little pearl detail.  This is definitely something I'll be wearing a lot!  Ariana's look even inspired me to break out my old glasses!  I cannot lie - I pretty much copied her entire look I loved it so much!


And what a fun dress this is!  I love the fullness of the skirt!  And the material is so soft...  I could feel myself all day (HA)! 

A little note about the name of my blog, Luckey's Goods.  Yes, I know how to spell lucky correctly...  Luckey is my maiden name!  And I thought Luckey's Goods sounded better than Meyer's Goods.  Now you know!

Other ways I have rocked my havana belt:
