    Born Rebel
    This year I said I wanted to display my style a bit more on my site. So here we go! No I am not a stylist, but I have style. I just enjoy looking nice and so Not a label whore ( for now anyway..lol). Recently I went home to Roc, NY and being that I live in ATL I had to dress a bit warmer there. I had a old pair of black jeans from Old Navy from the Rockstar collection that I absolutely LOVE. If you have curves ladies these jeans are perfect and affordable. I wanted to add a little flavor to my jeans and did so by putting a rip in knees of my jeans.
    I then wore my ADDICTED T-shirt(available for purchase soon) and wrapped my plaid red/black shirt around my waist. I didn't want to wear all black, so I added a brown cowboy boot to the mix. My make I keep simple and remain true to a red lip.I just like how a red lip turns your sexy on, without wearing super sexy clothing.
    I use to be super extra with my accessories, but since I've grown older I go for more simple pieces. But please don't get it twisted I'll still pull out my signature BIG pieces and accessorize my life away! For this look I wore gold small bamboos and a simple necklace.
    I found my purse that has fringe tassels on the zipper, at a store called Buffalo Exchange here in Atlanta, Ga. It cost me $16.00 and I received lots of compliments on it. I called this look Born Rebel bcos I am rebel, I do what works for me and it comes out DOPE. lol. I'm sure of my style and rock my clothing with confidence. I hope this look motivated your style.

    A reader of www.addicted2candi.com wrote in for us to style a look for her in November after her wedding. She wanted to wear "all white everything" but didn't want to rock another dress. So here is the look I came up with for her. I think its perfect because its a fitted suit with a peplum detail. Also, the top is white but there is lace to give this look some texture. You should find ways to play with texture whenever you wear all of one color. There has to be some type of flair added to the look. The lace did that! And of course gold compliments white the best in my opinion. And pointy pumps are back in style and look the best with these fitted trousers! What do you think of this look? And please give congrats to the bride to be, Yolanda Hines! Click here for additional details on the items.

    I mean really...they are leather. What other perfect time of the year can you rock leather shorts other than fall and winter? If I see any of you wearing leather shorts in the summer I will walk right up to you and smack ya! Lol. Just kidding. But for real, leather shorts are perfect for the season. It's all in how you style them. And because fall is sorta warmer in the day time and cooler at night you can take advantage of layering to transition from day to night. For an example, during the day you can rock a blouse, leather shorts, pumps, and a clutch. To transition for a cooler night you can add heavier pieces such as a blazer, tights, knee high boots, and maybe a scarf. Again, that's what I love about the fall season- you have so many options. To give you some ideas of how to style leather shorts we've outlined several options to choose from. We hope you'll be motivated to give this look a try this winter!!
    Add a blouse to dress your leather shorts up!!
