Leanila's Look: Classy Smooth


By: Leanila Baptiste Photography

 Hat: Banana Republic / Jacket: French Connection / Shirt: Liv via Marshalls / Belt: Banana Republic / Jeans: Creme Royale via Marshalls / Shoes: BCBG via Marshalls #fabfind / Bag: Thrifted via Mustard Seed #fabfind

This outfit made me think of classic, vintage-style photos like the ones I took above.  I love that these photos were taken this year, but could easily fit into an earlier era.  I love creating art with my photos.

Leanila's Look: Girly Lady

By: Leanila Baptiste Photography
Shirt: DKNY / Shorts: Aqua via Marshalls / Shoes: BCBG / Earrings: Kenneth Cole / Watch: DKNY
 
I use to steer clear of any pink clothing because it was too girly, and most things anywhere close to being girly make me look like a little girl. So, I steered clear of pink, flowers, ruffles, etc for the longest time, but now I've learned to work with and embrace my girly side while still being a lady. So, I purposely paired this girly pink shirt with short shorts and heels...no little girl here...just a girly lady!

Meet Beans, my cute Boston Terrier!  I think she loves the camera too! 

Now moving on...One thing I love about my job is that I can wear pretty much whatever I want to wear which allows for lots of diversity in my wardrobe...from dressing up to dressing down!  So, most of my previous posts included outfits I wore to work!  However, today was an in-between day...slacks with a touch of casual!  I absolutely love these J. Crew slacks I found at my favorite consignment shop, Mustard Seed! Being a petite girl, it's hard to find pants that fit just right, but these hit home!  I must say, I felt quite preppy today!

I'm' really enjoying mixing colors together. I love the bright yellow shirt paired with the green heels and navy blue jacket! I hope you like it too! Anyway, I thought I'd share some of my photography today!  Yet another take on my love of color. That's what my photography motto is about...capturing colorful moments (fyi, they don't literally have to be colorful...but it's not such a bad thing when they are)! Check out more of my photography at SmugMug, Flickr, and Facebook! Happy Monday and have a colorful day!

So, I stopped at Walmart to pick up drinks and ice for my cousin's high school graduation party, and look what I found! I'm loving this dress and what a great deal at only $14. #fabfind
