Guest Post: Bronx Diba Shoe Outlet: Shoes for the office

Heel lovers this problem may have happened to you:  Have you ever wanted to wear a fabulous pair of pumps to the office, but are unsure how to make it office appropriate?  Today I am going to share my styling tips with you and a pair of my favorite Luichiny shoes.

Shoe:  BE LINDA

Outfit: Pastel or white top with a nude pencil skirt

Jewelry: Simple with gold accents to match the shoes

Now add it all together and you get 

one perfect outfit for office attire without looking over dressed and trashy

Happy Mothers Day

I have been blessed to have been raised by two wonderful, influential, caring women who taught me compassion, independence and the importance of being able to stand on my own two feet. I love you both!

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Birthday Tan Boo

Yesterday marked the 5th anniversary of when we found Tanner, my cat-child, in the wood pile out side of our house.  The cute little ball of fur is now a 15 pound  fat cat that steals tortilla chips and donuts when we aren't looking.

An Event I missed...Vegas

I wasn't blogging when I went to vegas, so here are some images from our Diba True Launch Party.
We held the party at the Chandelier Bar at the Cosmo and it was GORGEOUS!!! 3 levels of crystals, delicious drinks and really fun people.

I might have had a little "too" much fun, but lesson learned and I had a great time.
