Last week I celebrated my 27th birthday. I had a mini-meltdown the first time I was referred to as being in my late(!) twenties, but I am truly happy to see another year, and I always say that you are as young as you look and feel. For my birthday look, I turned to Asos to find something chic and unique, and this sheer, burnout midi skirt fit the bill perfectly. Because the skirt was the star of my look, I kept the rest of my outfit simple with a black tee and booties. Of course, a dark <a href="http://www.ladilike.com/2014/09/lippies-for-low-fall-lipstick-shades.html" target="_blank">fall lippie</a> finishes the look!</div>

For the first time in ages, I found myself inside of Old Navy doing a little browsing. I found a number of adorable little statement t-shirts that were super cheap...so I picked up two! I paired this "Holy Chic" tee with a pair of high waist jeans and my new d'orsay flats. I have been eyeing a pair of d'orsay style flats for a while now, but never took the plunge because I thought they may look funny on my feet. I'm happy to say that I was wrong and these are now my go-to neutral shoe. <br>

Long time no talk, but I come bearing gifts--the gift of knowledge that is! LOL. I love MAC as much as the next girl, but sometimes my budget does not allow me to splurge on $16 lipsticks. When I want my beauty fix on the low, off to the drug store or the beauty supply store I go. I have found some great lipsticks in rich, pigmented shades perfect for creating your Fall beauty looks. Best of all, each lipstick is under $7! Check them out below:<br>

This look features two of my wardrobe staples--a striped shirt, and a basic black skirt. Stripes are a very friendly pattern, playing nicely with both solids and other prints, so a well-fitting striped top like this one is the perfect outfit starter. This black maxi skirt was a clearance find from Target and happens to be the best maxi skirt I've ever worn. I have a hard time finding a maxi that is the proper length for my short legs, and without all the extra volume that many pleated versions have. Hopefully I can go back and snag the <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.target.com%2Fp%2Fpure-energy-women-s-plus-size-maxi-skirt-assorted-colors%2F-%2FA-15117001%23prodSlot%3Dmedium_1_4%26term%3Dpure%2Benergy&pid=uid6900-1562630-25" target="_blank">print version</a>! </div>

Part of what drew me to this romper was the fact that it reminded me of something from my childhood. Despite it's feminine appeal and it being pretty short, I can totally picture a fashionable mom and her stylish toddler (Bey & Blue Ivy?) having a mommy-and-me moment with matching playsuits.<br>
As I wore this look, I couldn't help but let out my inner child and found myself giggling, skipping over cracks in the sidewalk, and telling the nearest adult when I had to go potty lol. Sure, I could reach the rear zipper on my own, but it was so much faster and easier to get a little help from my husband. <br>

Lately my style has been all about easy, flowing pieces, and this Asos midi dress definitely fits the bill.<br>
Is it me, or does this dress look like the shorter, younger, cooler version of this floor length number Kim Kardashian was spotted in recently?<br>

Last weekend, my husband and I hosted a Father's Day cookout at our house...when I tell you it was hot out, it was HOT. Apparently it wasn't hot enough for me to reconsider wearing all black (smh), but the heat did result in a cute little make-shift bun hairstyle and short skater skirt. <br>

I am loving the kimono trend this Spring/Summer, but because I have been on a self-imposed shopping ban I cannot make the splurge to buy one :( But no worries, by shopping my closet I was able to achieve a similar look with this floral high-low number by Jessica Simpson. I wore it this past weekend to a family cookout, and even wore it on vacation as a swimsuit cover-up. Just as a heads up, you will probably see this top on the blog again a few more times in the next couple of months!</div>

I spent the last week soaking up the sun and relishing in the perks of an all-inclusive resort in the Bahamas. Of course it was extremely hard to come back to real life after spending time in paradise, so for my first day back home I chose to infuse some island flavor into my look. This palm print short set from the Gap was the perfect 'fit to remind me of my vacation, and it matched well with my new tan! </div>

Designers are realizing that flattering doesn't mean only wearing black, and you can be sexy with more coverage than a bikini. With well placed cutouts, mesh panels, and fun color play, the options for stylish one-piece swimwear are limitless. A few of my favorite styles are below:<br />

<div style="position: relative;">
I have been in a great mood since Spring weather finally arrived. For the past 5 days, the temperature has been consistently above 70 degrees, which makes it much easier to start shopping for swimwear! I experimented with the 2-piece "fatkini" last year and loved it, so this year I will be picking up a new 2-piece this year. Below are a few of my favorite mix-and-match bikini sets that don't break the bank--each piece is under $50.<br />

The last few weeks have been a blur for me. From my bridal shower, to my first dress fitting, to an engagement photoshoot, it's safe to say I am in "wedding mode." After months (ok years) of planning, this special day has gone from being sooo far away to being just around the corner. Last week I went to "the country" where I'm from for my bridal shower. I wore an adorable fit-and-flare brocade dress by Kensie:</div>

Up until recently, the bomber jacket brought up images in my mind of those puffy "<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=flight+jacket&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=IbknU528LM-MkAeSz4DYDQ&sqi=2&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAg&biw=1366&bih=600#facrc=0%3Bblack%20flight%20jacket&imgdii=_&imgrc=_" target="_blank">flight jackets</a>" that all the boys <strike>and some hip-hop loving pseudo-tomboys like myself</strike> had in high school. Huge, shapeless, and at times a little noisy, these were not the bomber jackets of today. These jackets have gotten a face-lift and now come in a number of colors, fabrics, and prints, perfect for stylish spring layering. </div>

Before there was Peter Pilotto for Target, there was the <a href="http://www.ladilike.com/2013/09/31-phillip-lim-for-target-what-i-bought.html" target="_blank">Phillip Lim for Target</a> collection. My favorite print from that collection was by far the animal print--I bought the top and skirt!--and I'm shocked that this is my first time doing an OOTD post featuring this cute little sweater in an oversized leopard print. Despite being long-sleeved, this sweater has sheer sleeves and back, making it perfect piece to transition from these last cool days of Winter to the Spring sunshine. </div>

Maybe it is because I'm in wedding mode, but I have been drawn to the color white lately. What started as a plan to wear white to every wedding related event (from the bachelorette party to my bridal shower) has turned into a full blown obsession. I love a clean, crisp all white look, and of course the combination of black and white is classic. With Spring right around the corner, I am expecting to see an abundance of white in the stores as it pairs perfectly with pastel shades--a big trend for Spring 2014. </div>

Are you fan of white, cream, and ivory? How do you plan to wear it this Spring?<br />

As a lover of music, I can appreciate the trend of artist and music inspired clothing. I have a few souvenir t-shirts from concerts I've attended, so rather than just keeping them in a shrine in my room it would be nice to get some wear of them. Although I prefer statement (word) tops to those with a huge face on it. Unless that face belongs to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Yes Lawd. </div>

The weather was gorgeous in NC this weekend, so I took the opportunity to wear my new Peter Pilotto for Target tank top and wrap skirt. The two pieces came together nicely and gave the appearance of a fun, mixed-print dress. For date night, I completed my outfit off with a black blazer and comfortable wedge booties. In puting together this post, I went to the Target website and was suprised to see there were still a lot of items from the Pilotto collection available online. Each piece that I am wearing is still available, and they have some left in all sizes! Hopefully this means that I will be able to snag a few more items on clearance soon!</div>

I made the big reveal on <a href="http://instagram.com/ladilikecarmeme">instagram</a> a couple of weeks ago that I went back to the "creamy crack." Honestly, I've wanted to get a relaxer for a while (maybe a year?)...but I didn't want to feel like a failure, or as if I was doing it out of self-hate. Eventually, I reminded myself that it was only hair, an accessory that I can style anyway that I please. </div>
