OOTD || Blogtopia 2014

#StyleBunch ,

Considering this mini heat wave in LA and all the sweat I have had to endure, I must say I have had a great weekend. One reason (which the title suggests) is I went to my FIRST blogging event, BlogTopia. I couldn't contain myself. Especially knowing the lovely Nick Verreos was hosting.

Thinking of an outfit I knew I had to bring some sort of greatness to the table. However, sweating to death was not an option. Breezy was the theme of the day!

I recalled an old pair of pleated palazzo pants and I wanted something totally opposite from them. A plaid shirt, mines was from the Gap (men's section). I also wanted to represent myself. My sass shirt, a gift made for me, was perfect.

At the event, I had a ball. Met so many new friends and the FAB host himself. It was an experience to remember including golden tattoos (my new obsession), make up and eyebrow tutorials, and the hottest fall trends to come. Fall is going to be fabulous.

Did I forget to mention that I won a smashbox raffle!!!!!!! I never win anything, I promise. When I heard my name, I thought I was in trouble or something LOL. I will definitely be giving the products a try. What a great day!

OOTD-OOTN : On The Run

#StyleBunch,

Summer is seriously coming and going and it's at the highest demand that you have all the fun that you possibly can before it's over. This past weekend I had the most fun. Why? I was able to go to the On The Run tour!! Seeing Beyonce' has always been a dream of mines for I don't know how long and I finally got to live the dream.

The concert was on Saturday (August 2nd) at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena,CA. So considering, that it was an outside venue I knew shorts was the way to go. Especially considering that we've been having wacky humidity. My cousin, Lena, and I were thinking about out looks for weeks! I had an idea but, of course, we would have to see how everything would play out.

Considering that my week was not the best one, my outfit changed about six times.I injured my foot at work so my shoes did as well. After a while, I was ready to give up. Yes I said it, give up. a few weeks before I bought this baseball jersey inspired shirt at Love Culture. I wanted to wear a baseball jersey but I wasn't sure on if I wanted to order one or would I come across one in somebody's store. Then I saw this and I loved it. I put a crop top on under because for some reason the buttons wouldn't stay buttoned. The world would've had two shows that night ... LOL

Layered on some jewelry, popped on the red lips, and I was ready for Bey! All in all, I was extremely comfortable and, to be honest, more focused on Bey & Jay than myself.

It was such an amazing experience and I enjoyed every moment of it. As much screaming as I did, I thought my voice would be gone! Unfortunately, no! But it did rain... didn't stop me or any of the other fans from enjoying the show. I came prepared with a beanie in my purse. *thumbs up*

How was your weekend? If you're in LA, did you go to the show? Did you love it?

Shirt: Love Culture (NY black...here)
Shorts: Old Navy
Accessories: a mixture of a lot of places

Peace & style.

Bee's Personal Style Facts

If you've been reading Stylish Proportions since the beginning, you may have noticed a few traditional trends within my style. Some more obvious than others. I definitely wanted to bring them out to you to show what most of my styles are centered around. Let's take a look

- The Bigger the Earring , the Happier I Am

It's no secret that I love big earrings!! I always have them on and it's sort of hard for me to step away. I love them, what more can I say. I noticed that they bring out something in my appearance and I just stick with them. I know that the bigger, the bolder and I just love what that does for me.

You should see what I act like when I see some big statement earrings! Love at first sight might be an understatement.

- I Do Not Wear A Lot Of Make-Up

Make-up can be very fun. I love watching YouTube tutorials all the time. For me personally, I'm not sure if I have enough patience for me to do it myself on my face (LOL). I have my own staple products I use, however, that does not include a foundation, concealer, blush, and highlighter. The most you may catch me with is eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, lip liner, lip gloss, and/or lipstick. Simple right.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not against full faces of make-up. I know plenty of make-up artists. When they need a model I would be in first in line and I will be EXCITED! I just know for myself what my hands can do, make isn't exactly it.

- No Labels

Yes, I am one with a curvy stature. However, I do not label myself. When I say labels I'm saying as to identify myself as plus size or regular size or whatever size you can think of. Why don't I? Simply because of whats in my closet. I can't begin to tell you how many different sizes I have in my jungle of fabrics. Some are plus size and some aren't. If I can fit it, I will wear it.

I support all sizes in this world, never singled one out. I put myself in the middle and support them evenly.

- Clearance

Whoever said clearance isn't good is a LIAR!! I love a great clearance rack. A lot of my clothes are from clearance (LOL). Most of the time when I go into a store I will walk straight to the clearance rack first. You never know what good finds are there. The only thing wrong is that sometimes you may not be able to show where it's from because it was on clearance.

Don't be scared to say 'This was on clearance'. It's nothing wrong with it. It's not for everybody but there is NOTHING wrong with a budget. :)

These are just a few facts.
Enjoy.

Peace and Style. xo

You better Vogue!

Work it honey! Work it!

So I'm doing my usual scroll through Instagram (LaDeeDaDee) and I catch myself looking at shoes... These shoes to be exact!

Okay, did you gasp for greatness too? Good! We're on the same page.

Aren't these gorgeous!! The wonderful LolaShoetique posted these babies and I couldn't resist but post them. They're so fab and chic. I think what really caught my eyes was the Vogue covers.. How clever! The heel is 6 inches, platform is 2 inches (So you're really walking on 4, psssh light work). With all the colors these can go with anything! It can add lots of spice and pop to any ensemble and make it look like a million bucks.

The direct link to the shoes is here. There are other amazing colors like floral, tan, and green. Check it out! (I also put a link to the home page in the previous paragraph).

Til next post
Peace and Style

New Earrings

I'm so in love right now!!

So we all know I'm a big earring fanatic! (If I'm not wearing big earrings something is wrong! You have my full permission to ask what's wrong.) Anyways, as you can see I have a new pair to add to collection.

Where are they from? They're from me! Yes I did these earrings myself. Pretty cool huh? I felt too accomplished when I completed them. Still have a few things to mess around with then I can let you in on it! This was simply an experiment gone right!

What do you think? Let me know!

New Year, Focus on you!

“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”

– Oprah Winfrey

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I hope you all brought in perfectly, had a great time, and looked Ahhhhhhhmazing!

We're already three days into 2014 and what a great feeling!! We all have these goals and let's stick with them. Let's all make this productive and challenge ourselves. Just like 2013 was over in a blink of an eye, 2014 will be the exact same. However, take note of 2013. "What did I do right", "What did I do right", "What do I want to do" are a few questions to ask yourself. Write them down or make a concept board. Create and Inspire (yourself, first).

I definitely wand to thank you ALL for the wonderful support and sticking with me through this journey. I'm growing more and coming with more ideas, thank you so much!

I wish you all greatness this year!
