Wish-list Wednesday

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday! As I stated a few posts back, I'm going to be posting these more frequently than I have been lately, and I figured what a better way to start than to post for the first month of the new year? And for those of you who are new to my blog, let me tell you a little bit about this segment:

When I first started my blog last year, every Wednesday I posted a wish-list of things that I would like to acquire or simply just liked. A lot of the time these lists are compiled of things such as, perfumes, beauty products, and of course clothes! However towards the end of 2015, I kind of stopped doing them, but now they're back! Only instead of posting them every week, I will be posting them once a month, just so they're a bit more manageable.

Ready to take a look at what I'm wishing for?
 

 

1. Cap Sleeve Dress from SheIn ($39.99)

• The reason I loved this dress (and decided I need it) is because I love the length and the fullness of it. It's really rare for me to find such classic pieces like this, so as soon as I seen it I just fell in love.

2. Makeup Print Tee from SheIn ($10.82)

• Something that my wardrobe is lacking is tee shirts, either to wear on their own or to layer. Therefore I'm on a mission to find cute and unique ones before I head to the U.K. in October. The reason I liked this one is because it was so feminine and different.

3. Chunky Black Boots from SheIn ($42.23)

• Okay, so I'll admit, these shoes totally aren't my style but, something about these just made me want to embrace my inner (less extreme) Taylor Momsen. It's a new year, so I should mix it up right?

4. Black & Gold Sequined Body Con Dress from SheIn ($21.99)

• Maybe the attraction I have to this dress is my inner Pittsburgh girl shining through, but regardless there is no arguing that it is gorgeous! It is yet another item I can just see myself wearing come fall, whether it be while I'm out for a brunch date with my girls in Pittsburgh, or if it will be going to Jersey with me, that has yet to be decided.

5. Strata Long Sleeve Top from Alo Yoga ($29.00)

• One of my top style resolutions this year was getting more into the active wear trend. So when I came across this mesh top from Alo I just had to have it! I just know it will pair perfectly with my bralette top and a cute pair of shorts or jeans.

6. Qiyun Necklace from Amazon

• This gorgeous piece from Amazonis simply a show stopper. Needless to say when I seen it I wanted to add it to my collection!

7. Stretch Legging From Express ($29.90)

• Simply because: A) Leggings are sooooo comfy, and B) my pair of black leggings are shot. So these are kind of a necessity.

8. Black Pointed Toe Metallic Strap Flats from SheIn ($28.50)

• I just thought these shoes were absolutely darling! And even though I have plenty of flats, I think I can spare a little room in my closet for these.

9. Grey Tie Crop Top from SheIn ($8.99)

• I can't put my finger on why I am so drawn to this simple crop top, however I can just envision the sweet outfit of the day posts it could be featured in!

10. No One Cares Tee from SheIn ($9.99)

• Again, my quest for tees! I love this shirt simply because of it's sass. I can also totally see it paired with my army green blazer!

11. Red Draw String Tassel Bag from SheIn ($33.65)

• Ah, yet another one of my style resolutions! The reason I loved this bag is because it is big and it is bold!

Anything in particular on my wish-list catch your eye? I'd love to hear, so please tell me about it in the comments below or tweet me at @StarkRavingChic!

Work Hard, Play Hard: My First Article as a SheKnows Contributor

Hey babes! If you follow me on Twitter you know I got some exciting news last month (or should I say last year?) that I will now be working with a major online publication with a base in NYC and that is also headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ. Well for those of you who have been wondering what the publication is, the news is here and it's official: My first article as an "Expert" is now up on SheKnows!

So, how did I get the gig? Well, early last month I was contacted by Miss Sharon Gitelle, a Director and Expert Services team member for the company, emailed me to tell me that she really enjoyed reading my blog and thought that I would make a great contributor to their publication, and as I'm sure you know, the rest is history.

Curious what my article is about? Click HERE to read it in full (if you haven't read it already!), but for now, here is an outtake from my shoot, just as a teaser:
