Stylish Awards

The blogosphere has been showing me a lot of love lately: I received two awards this month, one from Haute World and one from Wendy Brandes Jewelry! Thanks ladies. :)

Haute World gave me the Stylish Blogger Award along with a tag: I have to list 10 things that make up my unique style.



Here goes...

1. To keep from showing too much skin, I layer white tanks and tees under strappy sun dresses and revealing tank tops.
2. I prefer silver jewelry to gold most of the time.
3. My perfect outfit is a combination of fashion, function, and comfort. I have to feel confident and comfortable in it; it has to keep me cool or hot depending on the weather; and it has to be cute!
4. Friends describe my style as "classic with a touch of whimsy and a love of detail."
5. Favourite colours of the moment: black, gray, cream, white, cobalt blue, turquoise, hot pink.
6. My Chanel 2.55 has become something of a style signature. I've actually been recognized by readers as "Solo Lisa" because of it!
7. I'd rather have a few quality handbags that are versatile and stylish and get a lot of use than lots of cheaper handbags I can only use on very specific occasions.
8. Jackets and coats are my biggest weakness. The perfect little blazer or jacket over a tee and jeans elevates an outfit.
9. Most days, I either put my hair in a ponytail or leave it down.
10. My uniform on salsa days: a cute top, dangly statement earrings, jeans, and ballroom shoes.

Wendy awarded me her seal of approval. Thanks Wendy!
