Black and White - Three; Sheer Bliss




Black Jacket: Fashion Bug (Old)
Sheer Blouse: T. J. Maxx
Calvin Klein Pants: T. J, Maxx
Blue Pumps: Colin Stuart via Victoria's Secret
 






This is another take on the white and black trend that I did this Summer which is almost over **sniff **sniff. Fall begins officially this weekend and the chill is gradually creeping in. I guess it's about time to start pulling out those cardigans and light weight jackets. The sheer blouse I put on in this shoot has since been retired waiting for next summer. It was the perfect blouse to layer underneath a black blazer on a hot day. It kept me cool and chic at the same time but I never knew so much of the belly was going to peek through the sheer blouse...:)

Seeking..





Top: T. J. Maxx
Purse & Pants: old
Shoes: Zigisoho via DSW




Hi Everyone, it's been a while; like a week? there were times a while ago when I used to sign in and check my blog every day for updates and I even had time to go visiting other blogs but these days, I do go a number of days without checking in and it's not because I lost interest or do not love blogging anymore. I have just been a little busy with family life and with the new addition coming into the family, I try to relax and just laze around during my spare time...:)

I'm also using this time to seek out ways I can improve my blog outlook especially my pictures...:) I have been holding unto and using my old crappy camera because I'm too thrifty to retire it. Hubby has even asked to upgrade my camera a couple of times but I told him not to bother. Thanks to my little one, the camera would finally be going  in the trash soon..:) She accidentally knocked the camera against the wall when most of the pics in it had not been uploaded. I managed to save some of them and these pics are some of the pics that were recovered. I took them a couple of weeks ago.

I have since retired the black ankle pants as they do not fit anymore and are a bit old now and I recently ordered a new pair from loft. I went up two sizes and would pay some alteration dues when the time comes...:-D

                                    Thanks so much for visiting and do have a lovely weekend.

Graphic Tees

Graphic Tees


    Graphic tees are trending right now and as much as I love the idea of printing your opinion on your tee, I must say I have been a little appalled at some of the messages I have seen printed on tees. However, I really do love this trend and have made up my mind to print some super cool messages about my love for God on my tees. I visited Customink.com recently and designed my own tee with a super cool message. My tee is on its way and I can't wait to add it to my fall wardrobe. If I really like the quality, then I would design and order a couple more. Below are pics of my precious tee after I designed it on the site.






            Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful and blessed weekend.

School Run



So, it's back to school and the day after labor day was the first day of school for my kids. I had taken a mini vacation from work to give me all the time I needed for all the shopping and hustle of getting the kids ready for school. Hubby and I put in hours of shopping and organizing in order to make sure the  kids got all the clothes, toys and school supplies they needed for the school year and I'm almost exhausted right now from all the work...:) The most important preparation given to the kids was when my hubby laid hands on them and prayed for God's grace and favor to abound. I seriously recommend all parents to do this; do not just send your kids out like that to face new situation without giving them God's blessings.

In order not to outdo the kids on their first day, I put on something very simple for the first official school-run day of the school year; a simple lime colored eyelet jacket over a white tee and black shorts. The outfit was understated so I decided to kick it up a notch by wearing my favorite Gingham sling-back sandals. Thanks so much for reading and have a wonderful weekend.



Jacket: Loft (old)
Shorts: H&M
Clutch and shoes: Colin Stuart via Victoria's secret.

Stepping Out


Red Blouse: Old
Pants: Forever 21
Clutch: T. J. Maxx
Shoes: Louboutin
Sun glasses: Target







These pictures were taken sometime ago. I was just stepping out of the house when I realized that there was something missing about the look. I knew I needed one more accessory and it was my sun glasses. I put it on and immediately felt better about the look. Sans the sun glasses, my eyes were tired and dull but thank God I realized a long time ago that sun glasses are not meant only for protecting the eyes from the rays of the sun. They also hide those slight mishaps which include dark circles. Another "No Brainer"; I know. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed week.
