My Favorite color to style this Season

       

       One of my favorite colors to style this summer is light blue color and it is gradually becoming my favorite color I think? If you have read my blog long enough, you would know that I love the color purple; it is actually my favorite color, then I also love red and green colors. Light blue or powder blue is slowly becoming my new favorite color and it started with this blue midi knit dress I wore here. Then I started to introduce the color into my wardrobe by using accessories.

Pink Dress - Everything Pink

 

       The pink dress is almost a summer essential, or should I say the color pink? I love pink in the summertime and this season, pink color is having a moment especially because of the Barbie movie; Barbie core, as they say is a big trend this summer. Here, I restyled this H&M pink dress that was a huge trend a couple of summers ago. I restyled it by making the hem shorter with the use of a belt. You can see how I achieved the new look on my YouTube video here. You can also see another restyling of it on my Instagram. The goal is to continue to restyle old pieces from my closet. Thanks so much for reading.

Stripes for July 4th

Happy 4th of July! This is one of the favorite holidays of many because they are able to gather with friends and family or go on a nice vacation to somewhere beautiful. There is lots of eating; barbeques, grilling and fun activities associated with this holiday and then, there is the fashion. The July 4th holiday is one of the holidays that have themed fashion associated with it like wearing red, white and blue colors or wearing stripes.


This outfit in the collage above is to give some inspiration on what to style for the July 4th holiday if you want to wear stripes. The dress featured in the set is a pricey Carolina Herrera dress and a big splurge. To create a similar look, consider vertical stripes because horizontal striped dresses like the one above are not easy to find. J. Crew carries a lot of striped pieces and you might find a piece or two to dress up for your July 4th festivities. Check out some of my favorite picks in the links below and have a safe celebration.

Lilac button down shirt and white denim Pants

 

 

Happy Friday; I hope the week has been going great for you. It is with much excitement that I get to post another lilac color post on the blog today. I really love the lilac color trend more so, because it is in the same color family as my favorite color purple. For my Friday casual style, I wore this lilac color button down shirt or blouse that I have had for years; paired it with white denim pants, an oversized tote and camouflage (camo) prints sandals previously blogged about here. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a blessed and beautiful weekend.

Summer's popular dress style

Happy Thursday ladies; I hope you are having as much fun as I am at least when it comes to the weather. We have short summers here in Minnesota so the aim is always to enjoy the sun and everyday as much as we can. I guess every lady already knows and owns at least one of Summer's popular dresses because they need no introduction. Since the off-the-shoulder dress or cold shoulder dresses started trending three or two summers ago, they have not left the fashion scene and that makes me think they are going to be around much longer. I purchased this particular dress from Loft last summer and it was the vibrant colors of the florals that drew me in. I also got a pair of culottes in the same print. I styled the dress with a straw bag which really is the number one summer bag, a pair of sunnies because we've got to protect those eyes and a pair of black mules and a straw hat which are all summer's essential accessories. What do you think of off-the-shoulder and cold shoulder dresses for summer, yay or nay?

Shoe Loving' - Fringe heel Velvet Sandals

Okay, summer is almost here and it is time to get out the sandals and slides and definitely time for another "Shoe Lovin" post on the blog. Today's shoe "Love" is this velvet fringe sandals by MR BY MAN REPELLER from NET-A-PORTER. It comes in two colors; red and yellow but the red is my favorite. The fringed heel makes this the statement shoe that should be reserved exclusively for parties. This is not the kind of sandals to wear to a park for a picnic or to a garden party because the

Straw hats are such a huge trend this summer and they come in beautiful shapes and sizes. The most common kind is the regular beach hat which can be plain or embellished with pom-poms, tassels or graphics. Forget the time when the straw hat was only meant for the beach; this summer, you are going to see them about anywhere and styled with about any outfit. Call them what you may; straw hats, floppy hats, day hat, sun hat, boater hat,
