Happy Mother's Day + My Eshakti knit Dress

 


      Knit dresses are my favorite kind of dresses at this time of the year and I love it when they are very dressy like this piece from Eshakti. I wanted to wear a floral dress for Mother's Day but changed my mind last minute and went for this dark navy blue midi knit dress instead. I like that it is structured and yet comfortable because the fabric is very soft and plush. Then, I love that it has pockets! Dresses with pockets is always a win, win in my book 😀

Summer Dresses to consider






     𐍆lowy dresses, puffy sleeves and bold colors are terms that describe the dresses that would be trending this fall. Talk about baby doll dresses with tiers and you have got this summer figured out. These dresses are pretty casual attire and can be worn to lounge at home or for a day in the park. Check out the links below for a quick look at my picks. Happy shopping.

My Wish-List for Mother's Day







                                     OneTwoThreeFourFiveSixSeven


               𐌼y Mother's Day wish List this year can also be a Gift Guide for you if you need some inspiration on what to get the young ladies/Mothers in your life. Gift giving is the main way we would all be celebrating this year as we practice social distancing and stay home under quarantine. First on my list is this puff-sleeved pink cotton dress from H&M. It is a lounging outfit that is comfy enough to wear while eating take-out at home with our close family and it would also make a great outfit paired with this color-block strappy sandals when it is finally time to socialize with others again. Face masks are very essential accessories right now and would make great gifts for family and friends.

 Mother's day is just a few days away and if you are still in doubt of what gifts to give that special Mom in your life, here are a few options to consider that are affordable and thoughtful at the same time. The first option is always flowers and a greeting card either handmade or industrial with a heartfelt message of love and appreciation. We cannot put value on all the things our parents (especially Mom) did for us but we can continue to say thank-you every now and then with every little gift or gesture we can provide. After the flowers come the dainty gifts; jewelry, fragrance, bags, shoes and even cash or gift cards to spas, for dinning, house cleaning...just name it. there is practically a gift card for most services

Amazing!!




I have only been away from the blog for about a week and I feel like I have been away longer than that...:-). I missed my blog, my precious little space, so I am here again for a quick post. There are so many things happening behind the scenes which I will share later because I have been busy. You might be wondering what is amazing about this post based on the title and I will tell you what it is at the end of the post but first of all, let's talk about the outfit.

This dress is what I wore on Mother's day and I did not really want to share the photos because as you can tell, I looked like I just had a workout at the gym but that's not really a sweaty face; it was raindrops. Yeah, it was all rainy on mother's day but the sun peeked out occasionally. I got this floral dress from a local boutique in my neighborhood and they do not have a website but are on Facebook. I loved the floral prints on the dress a lot but I did not like the fact that it had no sleeves. I would like to share a secret with you; I am very self conscious about my fat arms which have always been big even when I was very skinny while growing up. This is the main reason why I always wear clothes with sleeves or always have a jacket with me for coverup when I wear sleeveless tops. So, this jacket was purchased at Macys a long time ago and it is different from the one I wore in this previous post here. Remember I told  you almost every jacket in my closet has a twin?....hehehe. Do you think this outfit is a lot similar to the one I created on polyvore here?






Blazers: Macys
                                                                        Dress: Elite Apparel
                                                                        Purse: Express
                                                                        Shoes: Louboutins





Okay, so you know "Yours Sincerely" here likes to talk or write a lot right?..lol. Now let's talk about what's amazing about this post. My first daughter started kindergarten last fall and she talked about her new friend Ella all the time. They are in the same class and best friends. Well, it happened that Ella got sick a lot and she was diagnosed with cancer earlier in the year. She went through a series of chemo treatments and missed school a lot. My daughter was very sad and when Ella lost all her hair it was quite devastating. I thank God that Ella's parents are strong believers in God and there were lots of prayers for sweet little Ella. Miraculously, Ella went for her scan a few days ago and all the cancer cells are gone! Amazing. Everone is so overjoyed. She still needs to go in to the hospital every three or six months for check-ups but that's okay. At least now, she can start to have a normal life again fit for a five year old. IF YOU WANT TO READ MORE ABOUT ELLA, YOU CAN VISIT THE CARING BRIDGE WEBSITE HERE; her mum constantly updates the site but you will need to sign in with a google or other social media account to get access. She turns six next weekend and we are all going to be at her birthday party.

It's the season of florals and in creating my Mother's day outfit collages, I decided to add a floral piece into every outfit; the floral romper in the first collage, the floral dress in the second and the floral pumps in the third. I also added an unexpected piece to all the outfits; the chevron print clutch in the first, the army green blazer in the second and the striped blazer in the last. 

Mother's day is a day to dress up and be feminine and chic. If dresses and rompers are not your thing and you want to be a "Tom-boy Mum" on Mother's day by wearing oxfords, brogues and denim, it is okay too so long as you are happy and confident in what you wear. Let's celebrate ourselves, our moms, grandmas, sisters and Aunts everywhere.

Mother's day is around the corner and there is still time to get Mom something special. This is my gift guide in order of favorites. My first choice of gift for any occasion is always a greeting card accompanied by a gift card; gift cards can be purchased for almost anything today; spas, clothes, movies, vacations. My favorite is the Visa gift card which can be used for anything just like money. Yeah, give Mom a visa card of $5,000 or a check; let her charge it towards whatever she fancies;  she deserves it!...lol. Every other gift can follow after that...
