dress shirt,

While scouting some high fashion looks, I came across two identical patterns by the same designer, Prabal Gurung. We all have our fickle days when it comes to a look, and theses two selections are a perfect illustration of that.  I am a versatile individual, so I can see myself garbed in both styles. The sheath dress is super sassy, and the blouse is crazy flirty (with some distressed jeans), but I would like some readers opinions, which floral approach would you take?

family 4th,

I have to say that today was a very active and enjoyable 4^th of July. I spent the first half of the day at the park with my daughter, cousin and nephews, and the second half with my dad’s side of the family. Food, fun and laughter make any holiday a spectacular one, but the setting is what truly creates the warm feeling of being with family. Furthermore, my cousins beautiful backyard was that and more. When we arrived, the kids were playing in the water slide/ sprinklers, there were two gazebo tents setup with white chairs sporadically placed for guest to come, the food was lined up buffet style for self-serving and the music was super inviting.  Nothing like a family 4^th; hope you all enjoyed yours.

i.d me,

If you like it then you should have put your name on it! Well that isn’t quite the lyrics but it’s correlated to my accessory subject.  I.D baubles are personal and trendy all in one; it reminds me of 90’s fresh, and blends well with any style personality.  Trendsetting celebs such as Rihanna and Kim Kardashian have been clad in this hip number to name a sumptuous few; my take on the I.D phenom, engraving my beenalabella.com logo to add a touch of signature glam.

buzz worthy,

I usually don’t feature a perfume that I haven’t tested, but since I am in love with Marc Jacobs, I figure I would trust that his new scent is worth the buzz.  Mr. Jacobs concocted yet another sweet, charismatic scent called “Honey” which is infused with honeysuckle, vanilla, smooth wood, and other fruity notes such as pear, orange blossom and peach nectar to name a few.  His last three fragrances─ Dot, Oh, Lola! and Daisy enthralled my senses; so I wouldn’t put it past him that Honey would be any less bee-coming.

skirt flirt,

There was once a time when I only preferred miniskirts, not knowing the daintiness of a pencil skirt. What makes this style so attractive, is though the length isn’t leg defining, it displays your silhouette, which makes it flirtatiously chic.  Zara seems to deem this perception, because they have designed some fabulous floral pencil skirts that would flatter any physique.
