This is the 2nd half of the shoot I did with model/ designer Kiara! I styled her in a Stuck In July 100% silk long sleeve emerald green mini dress with gold accents. This is a perfect go to color that will compliment all skintones as well as set of a vibrant colorful look that's great for the summer!

Kiara is such a pleasure to work with. Extremely professional and versatile! If you wish to book her for a shoot you can email her directly through her website chemicalx.bigcartel.com!

Paaaaaaahhhteee! The celebration continued... what were we celebrating exactly?! Life! I'm an all around square. I really don't get out much, I prefer work over play but when I do take the time to unwind and let loose I partake in creative activities with my cuzsis Tam!

Tam matched her metallic gold top from Express with some jeans and glitter heels! I have on a tropical corset top I got on sale at Macys with a pair of liquid legging, color blocked pumps, a brass necklaces and a jelly purse I found at DAV Thrift Store in Houston!

I happen to like this silhouette shot. 

My name is Joy but I would prefer you all to call me Alegria.Monique... not because it's some type of nickname, or that it's my alter ego in a sense, but because it's personal and I happen to really really REALLY like personal! I'm a clothing designer/ Stylist based out of H-TYNNNE! (www.stuckinjuly.com) I'm a recent college graduate and this is my blog... Enjoy! 

I love to mix and match prints, colors... basically I despise structure! =)

Print on print on print! I purchased these shorts a few years ago at Forever 21 on sale... They're extremely ill fitting but I liked the polka dots! Now the shirt, I LOVE this navy blue with white triangles shirt! I got it from DAV Thrift Store in Houston, Texas for 75 cents! I don't know what I love so much about it... the shoes were some leopard and suede sandals I got on sale for $10 a while back and the necklace I purchased last summer in LA for $6! The bracelets are from random places and my glasses are prescribed!

I stopped by my old stomping ground on fourth of July. When I was in elementary school I attend the Boys and Girls club in my hometown of LaMarque, Texas.. It's an abandoned building now, extremely creepy!  Sidebar : You will see LOTS of leopard print heels on this blog!
