Galaxy print T-shirt for Astronomy and Sci-Fi buffs

The perfect shirt for Astronomy and Sci-Fi buffs.  A high quality galaxy print t-shirt that actually looks like the galaxy rather than a funky tie-dye print.  Made by Korean label AND2 and generously sized to fit as a one-size-fits-all top!
Faded Glory electric royal blue stretch pants jeggings
And these oversized cobalt frame sunglasses...
Cobalt blue watch
would look cute with this indigo crinkle skirt
or perhaps this violet purple stretch knee-length skirt...
a purple waterfall cardigan...
this cobalt dolman cardigan...
Star 🌟 cardigan
 a purple jacquard jeans jacket...
Purple Saltwater sandals
purple watch
Holographic purple netting shirt as a topper
purple spacedye sneakers
Iridescent two-toned blue-green skirt
Superga star print hightops sneakers

and these purple Miista holographic shoes...
kinda wild, but paint splatter Martens boots that look like a galaxy print would team well!

Cobalt blue patent leather thong sandals

Very cute cobalt blue patent leather thong sandals bought at Payless Shoe Source and by one of their labels Predictions.  They’re a gorgeous nautical blue and can be worn with toe socks (yes!) when it gets a little chilly…  True-to-size and with a kitten heels to extra cuteness!
And these oversized cobalt frame sunglasses...

Cork sandals with gold bling

Quite sexy cork sandals by Fioni in natural cork finish, but with a touch of gold for bling, that were bought at Payless Shoe Source with deep discounts – you know the kind that means you pay something like $3 or $4 at BOGO, buy one, get one free, that is…  Their neutral tones mean they go with just about anything and the heels are just about right as well at around 2.5” so I don’t feel like I’m on tippy toes when getting from point A to point B…

Oxblood oxblood / reddish brown basketweave clogs

Got to love this solid pair of oxblood / reddish brown leather basketweave clogs / mules, bought at Payless Shoe Source by Predictions that feature sturdy wooden wedge heels and non-slip rubberized soles. I like the comfy rounded toes and rustic brass buckles.  Admittedly, they’re no fuss-no muss classic styling with a touch of 1970’s boho chic. And they're leather which is kind of rare these days...

Sag Harbor leopard flats

Happiness is places like Big Lots (love their international foodstuffs!) carrying surplus items from well-known fashion labels like Sag Harbor.  These canvas leopard print flats are also by Sag Harbor and are generously sized, with the size 8 fitting my size 8.5 foot.  Leopard is the new black!  Great deal at under $10 as well…  Full review here…

Simonton Says by George Simonton burgundy velvet V-necked dress

A very pretty and classic looking V-necked burgundy velvet dress with three-quarter sleeves from Simonton Says by George Simonton.  Fits in all the right places – just the right length and classy!
and perfect with these matching burgundy slingbacks...
and I would add a little edge with these Doc Martens style cherry boots...
deep red mule sneakers
or these maroon / burgundy hightops for a dress-down...
and possibly this quilted doctor's bag burgundy satchel if it's not too matchy-matchy...
deep red angular sunglasses

Susan Graver burgundy velvet pants

I’m crushing on velvet these days, specifically burgundy velvet, and these Susan Graver burgundy velvet palazzo pants were exactly what I was looking for.  They do run long if you’re of average height or shorter so be prepared to take them up and the waist is pretty high as well.  Other than that they drape really well and have a lot of stretch.
and they should team well with with this burgundy slingback...
 and this burgundy satchel...
loving the contrasting studs...
deep red angular sunglasses

Product review: Vera Wang for Kohls reptile print leggings

A very realistic looking Vera Wang for Kohls reptile print leggings in charcoal and black...
grey vest with black buttons
black and white striped camisole tank top
and I would team the leggings with these Superga grey hightops / high top sneakers...
