Haute Wednesday!

 
All Hail Idris Elba!


 
Blue told me remind ya'll...
 
 
Bunny life!!


My thoughts exactly! I'm so tired of the "where's your boyfriend/why don't you have a boyfriend" questions....some people are settling, but I refuse to settle for nothing less than butterflies. I know that God's timing is everything and you can't rush love nor fate, so I'll wait until my time comes. FYI-It's not always roses just because you're in a relationship. I've learned a long time ago to love the SINGLE life you've been given until a good man finds you. #BuildFriendships #YallWorriedAboutTheWrongThings #RantOver

 
...In other news, did ya'll see Kerry on SNL?! She's so cute and funny!


 
 
 
Stunning to say the least!
 
 
 
How beautiful are these peonies!! Obsessed with flowers, they always make me smile.

RECAP: Style'N Fall Segment with Let's Talk Live DC!

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to model one of my favorite looks for Fall 2013 with some beautiful women that are just as passionate as I'am about fashion. Fashion Stylist, Naina Singla styled all of the models including me for the "Let's Talk Live" TV segment. I've done a modeling TV segment before so I was very excited when I was asked to do it again. Check out a few pictures from the TV segment below:

The signature "Schuntel fix your hair" move...I'm obsessed with making sure all of my hair is in the right place, but at least I looked fabulous doing it while showing off an amazing statement necklace :)
 

 
After a successful segment on "Let's Talk Live" we were all smiles!

All of the models! What a fun way to start my day, I really enjoy TV segments like this and hope to do more. Thanks to Whitney Stringer PR for putting this all together, she's amazing!
 
 
 
My entire outfit including the jewels can be found at www.nordstrom.com! If you're looking for the perfect work dress for Fall/Winter you need to go to Nordstrom (I'm not getting paid to say this) because they have a lot of amazing pieces that could work for any working woman on the move.

WHAT I WORE: Drake Concert + Halloween Costume Party!

 
Thursday was such a SPIRAL, I had to literally find something to wear the day of for the concert so I was a bit flustered but it all came together (Thank You Baby Jesus). I'm a huge fan of Drake, Miguel & Future so I was very excited that my friend was able to get us tickets to the concert, it was an incredible concert. I loveeee Drake's energy and he even bought out DC's own Backyard Band to perform their infamous song "Pretty Girl" as well bring out Songstress Jhene Aiko for a few songs as well. Great way to start my Halloween night, especially since I was eager to put on my costume. Check out the deets of my Halloween Night Out and What I Wore below:



WHAT I WORE: White crop top by TopShop/Crossover "Relax Skirt" from Sorella Boutique/ Fuschia "Kario" Mesh booties by Jimmy Choo/ Hoop earrings (old) by BEBE 



 
Hi Drake! The concert ended around 11:30ish, so me and my girls quickly changed and headed to The Park for his after-party/costume party. Park was a ZOO, but we managed to grab a drink and dance for a few while seeing some creative costumes. You've got to love Halloween!
 
Playboy Bunny, Spider woman & Miss America

 
How awesome are my bunny ears? They are lace and super chic, totally obsessed with them! I was lucky enough to find them at BCBG the other day, they are sold out online but you may be able to find them in stores.
 
 
A Bunny's Tale is ALWAYS interesting!! Hope everyone had a great Halloween, I sure did. Enjoy your weekend everyone...don't forget to set those alarms back :)
 
 
*bows out gracefully*

WHAT I WORE: When In Doubt, Fade to Black

Happy Wednesday!!!

I feel like this has been the longest week ever but it's only Wednesday...I need another vacay, lol! Anyway, over the weekend I faded to black from head to toe....literally. My friend darkened my hair and I'm totally loving my locks a little more now. I'm also super obsessed with black tops, pants, skirts and dresses especially leather anything this season because it's always appropriate for any occasion, when in doubt fade to black, you can NEVER go wrong! Friday night I spent some time with one of my closest friends and decided to throw on my leather since it was freezing out, of course I had to jazz it up with my new headband (don't mind my crop leather---*summer time sadness*). Get the deets on What I Wore below:

WHAT I WORE: Pave Bunny Ears Headband by BCBG/ Tuxedo jacket (old) from Urban Outfitters/Leather crop top (old) by BCBG/Leather Play Off Pants by Sorella Boutique/ Glitter Pigalle Heels by Christian Louboutin (similar found here)
 
 
Are you guys ready for Halloween? I just scored tickets for Drake's concert tomorrow so I'm SPIRALING to find something to wear. I'll also be attending his after-party for Halloween, can't wait to share those pictures on Friday. Until then, stay fabulous people!!!

SHOEGASM: So Kate Specchio Leather Pumps by Christian Louboutin

 
 
Anyone who knows me, KNOWS how much gold I like! I wear my gold rings and bracelets all the time so it's only fitting that I have a huge crush on these So Kate Speechio Pumps by Christian Louboutin, I mean have you seen them? My first pair of gold heels were Jimmy Choo and as much as I love them, I want another pair with a higher heel so this is totally PERFECT for me. Of course, I already have several outfits planned for these babies. Check out my shoe crush below:
 


 
Fashion Killa also known as Rita Ora rocked these babies first and I was smitten kitten! For $625 and 4½" inches (115mm) of metallic love, is it worth the splurge? *Decisions*

TRENDSPOTTING TUESDAY: Reversible Denim Jeans!

Any denim fans out there?! Well the trend of denim-on-denim is far from over, yes you heard it here first so keep those denim shirts in the closet and bring out those denim jeans as well. A far more trendy and economical trend is underway and I'll be the first to tell you that I'm in love with it. The reversible denim jeans are here for the Fall/Winter.

I first spotted this trend over the summer in Target and was blown away that I could get double the usage out of my jeans so when I went to LA last week and found myself in the Kardashian's store Dash on Melrose and I gravitated to the Bleulab Reversible Collection! I tried on two pairs of the denim jeans but just wasn't willing to pay $200 for a pair at the moment, maybe next month. Jean shopping is exhausting, I hate trying on clothes...but when it comes to jeans I put my pride aside and go to the dressing room. I'll try to go shopping for the perfect skinny reversible denim this weekend, stay tuned lol! Meanwhile, check out a few celebrities embracing the reversible denim trend below:
 




 
 
Jean shopping anyone?!
