Outfit: Dressed for War

Greetings Fashion Friends,

Thanks so much for your lovely support via Twitter and the comments section regarding my phone. One guy reminded me that it could have been worse and dude could have had a gun and robbed me of everything I had. SO TRUE!!! I thanked God that I wasn't hurt, but I didn't communicate the "silver lining" during my vent session. My bad! It's never a good look to only highlight the bad and neglect the good. Sprint actually contacted me yesterday and they promised me that they will address the rude manager I spoke to (the rep said they had a voice recording), and they were able to expedite the delivery of my new phone. Way to make up for the sub par customer service!!!

You know what's interesting.....fifteen years ago I wouldn't even miss a phone, but now.....our society has catered to the exponential growth of technology and our high dependence on gadgets. I literally manage my life with one device. But trust....I'm going to remedy that starting now. I refuse to be left lost and looking forlorn over a 0.7 lb phone. SMH

I have tons of photos to share with you all but I'm going to try to keep the timeline together. After my first "Christmas shopping" outing of the season, I realized that getting all jazzy to hit up the malls and outlets was not going to work. Those vultures were pushy, rude, and the scene was just too overcrowded. I then decided to look relaxed, ready for war, and a little stylish ;-)

Military-inspired combat boots and beret get me ready for "war", LOL.

Now this bag I absolutely LOVE....however, I can never find anything in it. It has no compartments and a tiny zip-up. Certainly not ideal for a huge cross-body.

This bag is super obnoxious, lol. But it's so boho chic right?
