Simplicity...

Let me first start out by saying this, labels do not define people. Yes a popular name brand may look appealing to the outside eye, but in reality it's just a name. The fabric, the texture, and the pattern can simply be from one place and the only difference is a popular name is thrown on it. That's it. You ever heard of the saying, "Less is Best?" That saying states volumes, the less you do, the better masterpiece you can create. 

This look is very simple but yet very appealing to the eye. My black & white checkered skirt came from Ross Department Store for $8.99. Wow! What a bargain! My tank top came from Marshalls for $4.99 for a set of two, (black and white), my necklace was on sale at Burlington Coat Factory for $3.99 and of course my shoes came from the amazing online inexpensive website Lola Shoetique. 

Now whoever said you had to wear expensive labels to capture someone's attention clearly doesn't turn too many heads, because it's not about WHO you have on, it's about HOW you have it on to create your own style and your own art.
