Orange Hue..

The weekend has been great so far. The only glitch is the weather. It was about 90 degrees in the twin cities today. It was scorching hot!! The forecast is pretty much the same tomorrow too. It's my friend's daughter's birthday today and we went to the buffet restaurant to celebrate. My darling hubby came along and it is always so nice when he comes for the kid's friends' birthday. His favorite thing to do is to pray for the kids on their special day. If you read my introduction to my blog, you must know by now that my faith is a big part of my life; every other thing is just secondary. Some people believe this is a contradiction. They think Christians are not supposed to spend time looking good and to this I just reply; "I don't spend time looking good-I just look good!!" Ha! Ha!!...:)

More so, after Christ was crucified, the roman soldiers cast lots for his clothing. You see that???..lol. His clothing was so unique that they cast lots for it! Anyways, I'll share with you and my future readers what I wore to the birthday party in this hot steamy weather. Aside from blazers, my other favorite clothing item are dresses and I am just gradually throwing in skirts piece by piece into my closet.

A little tired but still a supermom!..:)

Chipped Nails: from doing house chores...:)

Sun glasses: Target

Necklace: Random (do not remember where) Ring: Burlington

Dress and tights: Tj Maxx/Wedges: Steve Madden

I will share with you some more pictures from the outing.

My hubby took these pics so he was not in the shots but you can see some more family photos here

Have a nice week everyone and please be safe as you celebrate graduations, birthdays and other parties.

Chocolate floral + Cherry

Today was an eventful day for me. I was busy every minute and second of the day and the only time I got a break was when I took my blog pictures and right now as I am doing the posting. I was off work today but woke up with work on my mind; house chores that is...:) Cooked, cleaned, returned some important international calls, fixed my daughters hair (They always have to look nice too..lol)

I titled this post Chocolate floral plus cherry because of the colors in the outfit.

I am wearing a chocolate eyelet jacket which is a tad too small but I love it because of its color. Jacket is apt. 9 from TJ Maxx. Red camisole is random purchase.

I later took my fifteen months old baby for her check-up and had to take all three kids (hubby was at work) and they all can be a handful..:). I'm only going to sleep for less than five hours and will be off again tomorrow. I have school in the morning, (summer weekend school) then I have to take the kids to a friend's daughter's birthday party. Some of my friends who are still single wonder how I am able to keep things together and I just smile and tell them it is God. "I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me." Supermoms are able to do what they do only by his grace.

Crispy blue...

I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Mine has been a bit hectic (work, school..) but beautiful all the same. "Life is beautiful guys; no matter what would come our way!" If you have faith in God, you will know that he has given us strength to overcome all circumstances and you have to believe that all things work out for your own good all the time. That being said, I'll like to share with you one of my outfits that was inspired by June flowers..

I titled this post "Crispy blue" because of the blue overtones in the jacket and skirt..quite obvious? **grin.**

Jacket: Thrifted. Previously worn here

Skirt: Nine West

Bag: Guess

White Shirt: Cold Water Creek

Zigisoho pumps from Designer Shoe Warehouse

This box pleat skirt has white embossed flowers on it...not too clear from the shot

White crisp shirt has detailed floral lace in front

The jacket can always come off whenever it gets too warm...:)

Crispy blue look..ha! ha!!

I wish everyone a wonderful and fun weekend ahead. I have more floral styling to dish out for the rest of the month and would be happy to share them on my blog. Remember to always have hope in every situation you find yourself and everything would work out for your good.

Flowers and Flare..

Hi beautiful readers and bloggers, It's another beautiful and glorious day. The weather is very "hoooooot" (hot) in the twin cities; It's almost ninety degrees today. Although I have this love for blazers but I think it's time to put them all away. This weather is way too steamy for this kind of outfit but I will pull one out once in a while when I feel like it!...:)

I have been wearing this red and black skirt suit too often lately but not to work though. I feel it is too dressy to wear to work and the fact that it is made out of stretch fabric does not really help..:) Occasionally, the skirt rides up on my thighs and I have to tug it down...:) However, I love the flares on the skirt a lot and that is why I titled this post "Flowers and Flare." The flowers on my porch in the background and the flares on my skirt..ha! ha!!..:) There are also cute little rosettes on the red camisole and I think the outfit suits the title of the post or the title of the post suits the outfit? **grin** Since I can't wear this outfit to work, it is just reserved as a "dinner/date" jacket that I whip out once in a while for a dinner date with my hubby or for a fun outing. I bought the outfit a long time ago and recently replaced the red camisole because the old one was worn out. However, I do not remember the store I purchased the three piece skirt suit from so, I would say it is a random purchase.

Have a wonderful week everyone and keep a smile on your face no matter the situation around you...Cheers!

Skirt Suit: Random

Clutch: Nine West

Red Pumps: Quipid

It was very sunny and my eyes hurt...had to whip out the sun-glasses.

Red Camisole: TJ Maxx

Purple Floral dress

Hi readers and fellow bloggers. I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. I had a wonderful day today and I will like to share with you one of my amazing experience this weekend. I am not an avid TV watcher because of all the negative shows and news that is out there and because of my extreme busy schedule.. However, I do watch some of those makeover shows now and then when they come up . So, this morning, the TV was on Style Network Channel and there was a show called "Guiliana and Bill" that came on. I was getting ready for church service and was busy putting my outfit together when I heard the couple (Guiliana and Bill) on TV talking about going to church to pray. I looked up and actually saw the couple hand in hand walking into a big church and I felt that was pretty awesome.

In this day and time when a lot of people are embarrassed to talk about their faith in public, I thought the action of the couple was pretty remarkable. Also, I know Guiliana is a TV host on the E! Channel too and she has a lot of fans. So sending that kind of message to her viewers and her fans on a Sunday morning was a huge blessing. Lesson learned; "Stand up for your faith." That being said, I'll share with you the outfit I wore to church today...:)
