The Cut-Out Bootie

I have been slightly obsessing over the cut-out bootie! I am such a nerd when it comes to shoes its kinda ridiculous but especially cute booties! This selection is a little more edgy and I kinda see most of these kinda being worn as the "biker look" {motorcycle leather jacket, high waisted denim short shorts or leatherette pants} but I think you can make it work with any sort of style! This list is awesome because all these shoes are [ B U D G E T meets style ] all $50 or less! Click caption for more info on where you could purchase these...

9 Places to 'Spring Harvest'

Idk about you guys, but I love shopping after a fashion season has ended!

Its spring and all the Fall/Winter items have gone on sale. I am going to share with you guys my favorite stores and websites thus far that I have found to have the best quality bargain items!

Here is a list of 9 of my favorite spots...click "more pics" for more in-depth info!

DIY Potting Pots

I have been doing lots and lots of DIY lately. I always wondered what I wanted out of my idea of "perfect" decor and realized that I want bright pop's of color, organic creations, unique pieces and mostly simplicity. I literally came to this sudden realization like two weeks ago and its blowing my mind. Before two weeks ago, I was all for rustic and elegant...so deep warm colors with rustic fusion. Now I want light and bright colors with rustic fusion still. I think the sun came out and is messing with my head lol. Another thing, I started {potting my seeds for gardening}. I have never gardened before so I am so excited about it! I have been wanting pots for herbs in my kitchen and thought that I should get basic pots, like the ones used, and spruce them up a bit with fun paint. Enjoy and sure do come back for more!

Orchard Days: [Yolo]

So this is a late post but last week I went cruisin' around these back roads and found a lowly apple orchard out in the middle of nowhere. It was a perfect scene for an outfit post; I mean for real, rows of trees and nature {perfecto} I figure since I'm in the country-ish I might as well take advantage of it and enjoy every moment since YOLO! Today is for today, live so that when you are 80, you can look back and say I lived! I did all that I wanted and I had a life, good or bad, that I lived!

Product Review: KeyCals by Kidecals

Hey guys,

So I rarely do product reviews so this is a little out of the ordinary however, I think this is a product that you guys will LOVE, because I pretty much love it so far. I was recently contacted by a very cute company called Kidecals that specializes in labels and most notably, adhesive keyboard stickers called keycals. I am a major DIY person so I was glad to see that among these keycals were also a very vast array of labels for jars, boxes, water bottles, and lots of other cool and nifty things; labels that can even be personalized. Now how awesome is that! I personally fell in love with the keycals product which are the keyboard stickers that are geared for MACs. Seeing that I recently purchased a MAC last Fall, I was eager to get this product so that I could deck out my keyboard.

As you guys see, I picked the green ombre keycals which I am loving thus far! They give my computer a whole new look which I love! These shades of green are so totally in right now not only for decor but also in fashion which I think was brilliant of them! I was worried that these stickers would leave residue but I actually took a few off and they left a little non-noticable stick that was easily cleaned away with a dry cloth. The positives are definitely that they are so cute, very practical, add color to your keypad, and are a very affordable product, priced at $16 for a set. The only negatives that I am digging deep down for is that the CAPS key has a little light that usually comes on, on top of the button that is hard to see now that there is a sticker covering it, the volume stickers all look the same vs. the gradual increase in size on the pad, and lastly, my F1-F12 buttons are no longer visible. However, if you are well-versed with MACs, no big deal. In my opinion, the negatives I can deal with for how sexy my computer looks :)

Obviously, I can not end this post without getting you guys in on the action. Kidecals has been so wonderful enough to offer my readers a 15% off coupon using the coupon code: FASHION. If you are anything like me, you will know that I am a sucker for FREE SHIPPING and its free shipping all day, everyday.

Where: | Baroque Meets Chic |

Happy Friday! It is been a while since I posted and honestly I could post every other day if I was dedicated lol. The year is zooming by...last year I had 71 posts and that really disheartened me. I vow to have over 100 fashion style posts alone this year...that is a personal goal I have made lol seeing that there are 90 days in three months I think I can do it if I commit to 3 personal style posts every week! Have a magical weekend and a even more fantastic day! xoxo
