Everyone loves a Sale

Man! All of these sales are going to drain my wallet for sure. Something about a sale. It gives me a rush. Gives me a sense of urgency to buy buy buy. A sale gives me a sense of accomplishment, when I had used self control months prior and now the control has paid off (with a better price)!

Shop Intuition is having a sale right now, here is what is on my wish list!


Joie Jammin Belted Bermudas $99.99

Fawn’d of You $14.99

***Since it is practically everyday I want something new- I will be starting a new segment next week called “Wish List Wednesday”

Dear Fashion Kitty,

I would love a tutorial about how to wear a belt over a longer-lengthed shirt. I bought a bright fuschia short-sleeved blouse from H&M because I just loved the color it was so inexpensive, but it is tunic-length and looks strange. I was thinking a belt worn at the waist might make it look better. What are some guidelines you might suggest for wearing belts over shirts?


I would consider my style urban-classic, tailored, well-cut lines, but with accessories and shoes that are a bit edgy. I’m 5’11 and can carry most looks pretty well. I’ve played around with the few belts I own and nothing seems to look right. What would you suggest? —————————————————————————


Thanks for the question, good thing you asked. Nothing worse than pulling a Tyra Banks and belting every single top you own. Anyhow, I do have a couple of loose rules to follow this trend.

  1. Pick what you want to extenuate: The top or your Figure. If you want to show the world how tiny your middle is? Add a thicker belt to a plainer shirt to show off your figure. Care to show the world what a gorgeous top you just purchased? Tie a ribbon belt, or a leather belt lower on the waist
  2. Choosing your belt: Go with a theme… Have a floral or a hippy style tunic- add something equally soft and flowing (like a braided or ribbon belt). Have a plain shirt that you would like to make more pulled together, go with a thicker more structured belt higher on the waist.

Some things to watch out for:

  • Don’t cinch too tight
  • When wearing a long tunic- make sure your bottom half is simple (no one wants to see bulges from thick belt loops and zippers
  • Buy the right belt- I have tons of belts that would look great over a top, but they are too big to cinch around the waist. Check the size based on where on your body you think you will wear it the most.

Mirror, Mirror

What do I love? Kittens, cupcakes, jeans, shopping, pugs, and looking at myself.


Looking at myself. Heck yes!!! I really do… I am so sick that I have a mirror propped up on my desk at work so I can glance at my mug all day long.
That is why I love Mobile Mirrors at Kitson ($14) . They attach right to your cell phone- this way you will never have a horrible green something in your teeth, an out of place eyebrow, or whatever gross things the human head is capable of having.

Sale Alert

Thank you The Denim Bar (which happens to be my favorite spot for purchasing jeans) is having a sale!! Buy one pair of men’s jeans, get the second half off. Buy one pair of women’s jeans, get a hoodie or sweatshirt half off.

Sure I just bought a pair of jeans just a few hours ago- but what girl can resist a sale? I can’t!! I will be sure to let you know what I purchase. I am hoping for a new pair of Taverniti SO’s.

Be Fashion Kitty… Vintage Re-makes


I have slowly become the queen of vintage shopping. Ever since I discovered my favorite neighborhood vintage shop- I am hooked. Here are 2 of my favorite vintage necklaces. The first is a charm from my grandmother that I jazzed up by making a beaded chain. The second, a cool ass harmonica necklace (that works!). Good luck finding the originals- but if you like them you can get replicas on the cheap ($6 each)at fredflare
