What I'm Wearing
Cream Scarf: F21 ($7)
Black Cardigan: Old Navy ($2)
Zigzag Striped Top: River Island ($11)
Black Leather Braided Belt: thrifted
Yellow High Waisted Jeans: thrifted
Black Combat Boots: H&M ($15)

Is there no way to shrink jeans (or gain 5 extra pound in a specific area)? I ask because these high-waisted yellow jeans seemed like such a steal when I thrifted them but once I walked a few miles in them, they started to fit loosely and unflatteringly at my backside. Thankfully, you can't see the problem area much in the pictures! I had to make it work, you know?

This is a more laid back, "I'm chilling because it's midterm season" look. I've really been hitting those books and my major does not play games! Sigh. I don't know how the human brain is capable of learning so many things at once and applying them. It really is amazing if you think about it! We are programmed to multitask. And on that note, I think I'll start my homework!

What I'm Wearing
Necklace: Charming Charlie ($6)
Bracelets: Shoedazzle (my sister's closet)
Rings: Charming Charlie (4 for $9)
Earrings: F21
Black & White Blouse: River Island ($12)
Black Pants: H&M ($5)
Leopard Loafers: Steve Madden ($30)

Like my shoes! Which I am completely in love with. Let me bask in the glory of buying Steve Madden shoes for under and arm and a leg. *basks in glory*

How's this for my first post taken with my very own DSLR!? Do you all like it? Is the difference appealing? Noticeable?

I also have my friend, Erica, to thank. I call her my assistant because she always helps me take my outfit photos when she can. Always. Who needs a cute boyfriend when you have an amazing best friend? (I'm not against the idea of a cute boyfriend, though! I just need to find one first...*cricket*)

This outfit made me feel very regal! A couple of my friends even went as far as calling me "Nubian" causing me to purpl' (which is my dark-skinned version of blushing. Hehe)

Okay, one more thing! I want to expand my blog so that it can reach its highest potential. The reasons I haven't really been able to do so thus far is because of time constraints but I don't want that to be an excuse anymore. I want to branch out to to street style, blog interviews, and guest posts. So, my question is, how do you all feel about this? Would you be interested in those expansions? ALSO, do you have any suggestions that will help Chocolate Laced rise to the top? I mean, I'd be nothing without you all!

What I'm Wearing
Tan Linen Blazer: UK French Connection ($12)
Cream Pashmina Scarf: Forever 21 ($7)
Blue & Gold Necklace: Forever 21 ($7)
Cream Oversize Blouse: H&M ($15)
Blue High Waisted Boat Print Leggings: River Island
Cream Oxfords: Crown Vintage from DSW (my sister's closet)

These pictures are just a little bit of a white lie because they were taken during the second week of April! I've been so busy that I haven't really been able to tend to my blog the way I should! My finals start a week from now and end two weeks from now which also happens to be my birthday! I have to register for my classes for next semester and go through every single item in my closet so I can sell the things that don't fit me and the things I don't wear anymore. I hope to get it all done before May ends!

I just wanted to share this outfit with you all so a) you know I'm still alive, b) you can admire the wonderful photography thanks to my wonderful friend, Elton, and c) I can show you my high waisted leggings which I love with all my heart and that I bought from River Island (online, along with the Cheetah Print Top from the last post). I hope you like everything! And thank you everyone for being patient with me! <3

What I'm Wearing
Spike Drop Earrings: F21 ($2)
Gold Leaf Clamp Bracelet: ASOS
Rings: F21 & my mom's collection
Assorted Bangles: F21 & ALDO
Colorful Striped Blazer: eBay ($1 + $3 shipping)
Leopard/Cheetah Print Tank: River Island ($11)
Black Trouser Leggings: H&M ($19)
Black Suede Booties: Bakers (from my sister's closet. now a gift ^_^)

This leopard/cheetah (I can't tell the difference) print top--along with 3 other items--marks my first purchase from River Island and I think I found a new love! I perused through the sale section and found 4 items I couldn't live without! (All within my price range too!) This top was one and I'm sure you can tell why I love it so much! Leopard and cheetah print is very popular but usually the first thing that comes to mind is the spots/skin as the print. This top uses the actual animal is the print. How lovely!

I bought this blazer from eBay back in August and this is my first time wearing it out. I had to rip out the shoulder pads because they created a harsh boxy silhouette, one that I liked, but couldn't pull off since my bottom half isn't the curviest. Without the shoulder pads, the blazer is definitely a more relaxed fit, with a hint of shoulder structure. Love!

Plus: I got my first pink heart on Lookbook with this outfit! Yay! :D
