My Summer Internship

My Summer Internship by confectionarystyle featuring short dresses
  

First things first, this is by far I think, the best thing I have created, both colors wise and styling. I am in love with this. 

 

Second, no I don't have a current summer internship; for those of you wondering, but I will have one next summer or the one after that. We will see how it goes. But, I would so wear this to future said summer internship, even if I am a Political Science Major, and government internships are known to be stale in the outfit department.

Did I mention how much I love this dress. The color, to die for. The print--polka dottie goodness. And don't even get me started on the style, perfect twirling length and shape.

Valentines Day Gift Guide

Valentine's Gift Guide by confectionarystyle featuring knee high heel boots 

Well, Valentine's Day is upon us once again my friends. And you know what that means? Its presents time. And for those of you who are lucky enough to be in a relationship, you will definitely want to pick some of these items up or have your boo buy them for you.  
 A day as romantic as this, comes but once a year (kind of like Christmas-the once a year thing; not the romantic part). Although Christmas can be Romantic sometimes, or unless you count your Anniversary. Any-who, lets get back to my Gift Guide shall we. 

I decided to go all out on this. I did a High category ($100 & up) and a Low category ($99 & below). There are things on here from makeup, to shoes, to dresses, and jewelry. Everything a woman wants to get for the most romantic day of the year.

High End of the Spectrum (In no particular order.)

As I am getting older, I have noticed I want more expensive things for Christmas. This is not to say that I am spoiled, but I have been craving pieces that can withstand the test of time and trends. And nothing is more timeless than jewelry and handbags. I chose the iPad as my number one present for Xmas, as any piece of Apple technology will resist the wear and tear of life and its a piece of equipment that will be there year after year for whatever need I have. A nice quality winter coat is always a must for Christmas, it will keep me warm many years to come and the classic silhouette will never go out of style. A nice big designer handbag is not only sturdy and will withstand wear and tear; but one from Coach will be sure to be a generational favorite. A classic mens watch will go with all my outfits and its a nice timepiece to give to future generations as an heirloom. And you can never go wrong with bright jewels. Diamonds are a girls best friend, especially jewel toned ones for Christmas.

With Halloween long gone. 24 hours is enough right? And the Holiday Season in full swing and right at our door (Turkey Day & X-Mas anyone)? I thought it only appropriate to share 2 looks that are both festive and jolly and bright, even though they are a bit pricy. But who doesn't love a classic Coach Perfume or nice jacket that will last you years to come. The first look is a day look and is perfect for those that are in the job market or work in an office environment, its prefect for those office parties that are right around the corner. The second is more for the fun party goers out there. A night out for drinks or a friends Christmas party at a swanky restaurant. If I had the budget, I would Gobble these outfits right up. Get it Gobble. (Eat up, gobble up, Thanksgiving). Never mind. Well what are y'all plans for Thanksgiving and Christmas?
