BEST OF 2013: Outfits, Selfies & Favorite Moments of 2013!

SERIOUSLY, it's almost 2014! 2013 has been such a great year for as I've achieved a lot of things on my goal list and I've learned the importance of family, true friendship and unconditional love. I think I rediscovered my true passions and my greatest desires this year and have surrounded myself by the best people ever (grateful for each and every one of you). As my passion for fashion has been nurtured in 2013, I'm looking forward to rediscovering my style next year...I feel like my style has changed so much this year and I'm happy to finally be comfortable channeling my inner glam side and not feeling guilty about it. I love glam and I've learned to where my favorite shoes whenever I want and overdress just because LIFE IS TOO SHORT and my heels aren't. With all this said, I wanted to give you my best moments of 2013 before I show you my vision book additions.

 

Best Outfits of 2013

 

 

From Holiday parties to birthday dinners to homecomings and countless events in DC my heels have made it's way around town. I think the pointy toe heel reign was in full effect this year for me. My pointy heel of choice was usually from Jimmy Choo or Christian Louboutin, these two designers makes me feel uber sexy and of course taller! What a fabulous year of shoes...*le sigh*

 

I'll be the first to say that I stepped up my edgy looks this year by stepping out of the box and channeling my inner Rihanna, Diana Ross, Madonna, Beyoncé, etc. From day parties to concerts then to Sunday brunches with my friends I loved incorporating trendy pieces into my style. Getting dressed for an event or party is my favorite hobby. So I would have to say 2013 fostered my love for mixing my classic pieces with more trendier items, I love remixing my wardrobe.   

 

Best Selfies of 2013

 

 ...because sometimes you are your best photographer! I went through my new and old phone for pictures and discovered so many selfies (does that make me conceited?) that I laughed so hard and had to post them. Apparently I've taken many "test shots" and "outfit approval" pictures throughout this past year, it's official I have a selfie problem LOL. Seems like I love taking pictures in my car..  

...then occasionally a few friends or in some cases your parents get in your selfie! There is a story behind every picture and all I can do is SMILE from ear to ear, I love my family and friends so much. Can't wait to take more selfies next year, wait does that make me obsessed with myself? LOL
