AOOU Spinner Luggage Review

For tonight's post, I am reviewing this 3-piece set of spinner luggage from AOOU.  It also comes in blue, and purple, but I wanted a classic color that would not show dirt, and would match any other luggage I wanted to pair it with.

I love how smoothly the wheels glide with these pieces!  I am looking forward to traveling even more with them.  For most trips, I would probably end up taking the smallest one, and a backpack.  That is my favorite travel luggage combination.  As I have mentioned before, I have back issues, so rolling luggage is usually a must for me if I am going to be carrying it a long distance.

Blue Surf Tank Top

I bought this cute top on sale from Walmart a few summers ago, while I was still in California.  It was from the children's clothing section, but it fits me fine.  I paired it with this skirt that I also bought from Walmart at a different time.  I thought the outfit was a cute, fun choice for a hot, casual summer day.

The heels were a pair I bought in the L.A. fashion district for two dollars.

Beige Crochet Top

This whole outfit was thrifted.  My favorite part is the top.  I just love the crochet!  The bag is also such a cute, unique piece with all of the seashells, and the fringe detail.  

I like how comfortable the skirt is.  I usually wear shorter skirts, but sometimes it's nice to wear something long, and full.

The sandals are a new pair, for me.  I love how basic and neutral they are.  I know I will be getting lots of use out of them!

Green Gingham Pants

It was another cloudy, rainy day here in Virginia.  These photos were taken on a nicer, warmer day. I miss the sun!  Hopefully the weather will be nicer tomorrow.

The top I am wearing here is one I bought from Goodwill, but it was new, with tags from Shein.  I love the lace detail that is all along the top.  It goes with so many things, and the weight is perfect for spring, and cooler days in summer.  

The gingham pants were also purchased from Goodwill.  They fit me perfectly, which is often hard to find in pants for me.  

The orange bag is one I bought for $1.99 at Lowemart.  I thought it was very on-trend this year, since I have been seeing straw and bucket bags everywhere.

Black Short Sleeve Dress

It is rainy today here in southern Virginia, and much cooler than yesterday.

This little black dress if from a warmer day.  I think this was a gift from my mother.  It's very comfortable, and basic.  I like the little gold/copper details that add a little interest to the dress.

I miss the blooms!  I need to pick up some mums for the fall season.  Will you be decorating for fall?

Light Blue And Gold Lace Top

I am not sure where I bought this top, but I know if was a thrifted item.  The skirt is the same one you have seen many times this year.  I just love it!  I guess I will be putting it away until spring pretty soon, though.  
I have a pleated skirt in off-white that will probably be my cold-weather version, since that one if made from a thicker, wool-like fabric.

I spent the day with my family.  We did a little shopping, and had dinner out, but then we got caught in a real downpour!  We were soaked, but it was funny!  We got home safe, and that is the main thing!

Beige Crochet Maxi Dress

This dress was way too long for me, but I was able to remove one layer of the ruffles, and the length was much better, especially with my tall wedges.  I love the beige crochet since it can be changed up with so many different colors and accessories.
This is the kind of item I intend on keeping in my wardrobe for many years.

The sun came out today, and it was beautiful!  The full moon is now out, and that's is also gorgeous.  I love the full moon, how about you?

White Maxi Dress with Gold Buttons

For today's post I am wearing a vintage dress that I thrifted years ago.  I think it's probably from the ealry 1990's, but I thought it looked a lot like the dresses that were trending this spring and summer.

I found this seashell necklace at Goodwill in Richmond, Virginia, and my pearl headband is from Dollar General.

Green Lace Floral Top

The first full day of fall felt mor elike it here in Virginia today!  I spent the evening going though clothing in my closet and pulling out all the fall pieces I could find.  I have so many cute things I want to wear!

For today's look, I am wearing a green lace top that was thrifted.  The skirt is from Fallas from a few years ago.

The bag in another thrifted item.  I love the pink! 

My sandals are from Roses, and I love them!  Since they go well with my skin color, they almost blend in, making them the perfect basic sandal for my more casual looks.

White Cross Tank Top

I am guessing this top is supposed to represent the Swiss flag.  I bought it from a thrift store in California, if I remember correctly. 

I decided to wear the top with a pair of red shorts I got on sale from Walmart last year.  I thought the shades of red matched well enough.  The shoes are a pair I bought new, in the box from Lowemart a few months ago.  I took the back strap off after this shoot, and made them into slides.  The strap was a little uncomfortable, and now they feel much better!

White Mini Dress

Happy weekend!
I spent the evening filming more videos for my Youtube channel.   I had been doing some shopping lately, so I will have new haul videos coming soon!
 
The dress I am wearing is one I made from a tee-shirt years ago.  I kept it simple with just a gold bracelet, and black heels.  

The heels are from Goodwill, and they are a comfortable height.  I love that these will pretty much go with anything.   I always like to keep sandals like these in black, silver and gold, if possible.  With those colors, you will have something for every outfit.

Tropical Print Sleeveless Top

Today is my birthday!  I spent the day relaxing at home.  I didn't sleep well last night, so I think I needed the rest!

The necklace I am wearing is from Kohl's, and it's tropical themed.  The top is one I bought on sale from Walmart a few years ago.

The red skirt is one I bought from a thrift store, I think while I was still living in California.

Yellow Pleated Blouse

This green turban is one I bought from Ebay for just a few dollars.  I added the lion pinto the front, and I love the way it looks!  I thought the gold tied in well with the well top.

The leated, yellow blouse is a thrift store find, and the skirt was from Amazon.  

Today, I went shopping with my family, and we had a lot of fun.  It was an early birthday celebration for me, since my birthday is tomorrow, September 20th.

I bought several cute things from Roses, and Goodwill.  Roses has lots of tasty snakes, so I picked some up for a dessert table for my birthday.

Orange Silk Skirt

I bought this tee shirt from a thrift store a few years ago.  I love the southwest-style print.  It is also very soft and comfortable.

The orange skirt I am wearing is silk, and I bought it from Goodwill years ago, as well.  The bag is another Goodwill purchase in the past year. 

The earrings are a pair I bought at one of my favorite dollar stores in Lancaster, California when I was living there.  I love how fun and colorful they are!

Green and Yellow Print Maxi Dress

It's been a rough day for Virginia.  We have had tornado warnings since this morning. There were nine tornados in the Richmond area, alone.

It was stressful watching the news, and I am hoping the weather will be calm tonight.
I don't recall ever having so many tornados at once in Virginia!  Usually, we are very lucky here with no major weather events.  

Today's photos are from a nicer day here in Virginia.  I am wearing one of my print maxi dresses I purchased from Fallas while still living in California.

Berrylook Fashion Fall Hoodies and Boots

 It is still warm here in Virginia, but fall weather is just around the corner, so for today's post I am sharing some cute styles from Berrylook.  First off, let's start with their collection of cheap hoodies for women.

I love to dress us, but sometimes it's nice to throw on a warm, cozy hoodie, and just relax, whether going out, or just lounging around the house.

Here are my four favorites:

This first one I love because of the rose appliques.  I am still a big fan of this trend.  I think this is such a cool way to dress up such a casual item, like a hoodie.  I can see wearing this with red leggings, to really make a statement, but be super comfortable at the same time.

https://www.berrylook.com/en/Products/embroidery-floral-drawstring-hoodie-198999.html?color=white

I think this is one of the most stylish hoodies I have seen.  The over-sized buttons, and other details really make this more special than just your run-of-the-mill hoodie.  This one also comes in yellow, but I think this blush pink is very pretty, and will go great with the neutral colors of the fall season.

https://www.berrylook.com/en/Products/decorative-button-pocket-plain-hoodie-200119.html?color=pink

My favorite thing about this hoodie is the fur trimmer hood! Fur trim on hoodies is not something I see too often.  This one also comes in black, and gray!  Personally, I think this khaki/brown shade is the perfect choice for fall, though.

https://www.berrylook.com/en/Products/kangaroo-pocket-star-printed-hoodie-203014.html?color=khaki

I think perhaps this style is the dressiest take on the quintessential hoodie...  I love the plush lining!  The color shown here is also awesome for fall, but if you want to go bold, you can opt for red, green or blue!

The button detailing on the pockets adds a little interest and contrast, which I like.

Next up, let's take a look at their selection of women's fashion boots for fall.

Here are my four favorites:

First of all, this basic khaki pair will look great with so many fall colors.  And my favorite part is how low the heel is!  That is something I look for in my basic shoes and boots.  I want a lower heel so I know I'll be comfortable wearing them for everyday, all day. These also come in black!
https://www.berrylook.com/en/Products/plain-flat-velvet-round-toe-outdoor-ankle-boots-212817.html?color=khaki
If you are looking for something with a bit of a taller heel and a simple design, perhaps these would be the perfect pair!  I love this burgundy color, but they are also available in black, brown, and gray.

I think these are my favorite pair, because of the buckle design detail, and this beautiful shade of green, although they do also come in black and light brown.  I think these would look perfect with leggings, or even skirts.  Just throw on a cute sweater or jacket, and you would have an adorable autumn outfit!

I think this last pair is a perfect, affordable dupe for the Chloe Susanna studded boots.  I also love the heel height on these.  These also come in rose and black!  I want all three colors!

Pink Floral Blouse

My family and I went out and did a little shopping today.  It rained on and off, but nothing too bad.  Today was supposed to be one of the worst days for wind, but that was also not that bad.  I am so thankful it has been okay for those on my area!  I hope everyone in North and South Carolina can recover, quickly!

I am wearing all thrifted items for this OOTD.  Once again I am wearing this black maxi skirt.  It goes with everything!

Pastel Sweater

I love the pastel colors in this sweater.  It's lighter weight, so it's perfect for cooler summer days, or early fall.
The day I wore it I found this necklace from Walmart that was on sale for one dollar.  It matches the sweater so well!  Don't you love it then that happens?

The light denim leggings were a Fallas find.  And the heels are my old favorites.

The hair clip was part of a four-piece set that I bought for one dollar from Roses.  Roses has so many cool accessories!
