The blue dress..

Yes the dress; the beautiful blue dress by Carolina Herrera that Michelle Obama wore to the recent State House Dinner. I loved it. I'm seriously starting to love the color blue. I have never seen this shade of blue look so good in an evening gown. *Oum..m* (yawn), I got to go to bed. Good night all and God bless.

All White and Plaid

Pant Suit: Banana Republic
Plaid shirt: Next (gifted)
Shoes: Steve Madden

 This is the outfit I wore to Church last Sunday. It was actually a no brainer; a white pant suit with a plaid shirt and red pointed toe shoes. The temperature was so low and it was so chilly that I knew I had to wear a pant suit. Usually, I love to wear skirts and dresses to Church on Sundays but as my style has been evolving, I have started to expand my wardrobe choices. White is a color I have always been comfortable with but I thought an all-white outfit might be a little too much hence the addition of the plaid shirt. The contrast really made me happy.


                                                                                             



 I had a lot of fun this last weekend. My younger brother who I have not seen for a while paid me a surprise visit. His wife and kids were around during the Christmas break and were actually present when I had my baby but my brother could not make it due to his hectic work schedule. So, it was really nice when he showed up unannounced. Some family friends came around to visit too and it was a very busy but fun weekend. The Church service was very powerful too and I was blessed. We had a nice dinner afterwards and it was really a beautiful Sunday.

I hope you all had a fun weekend too. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful week.

1 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings. 2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby. 3 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

Duo toned





                                                                             






Sweater: Forever 21
Pants and Scarf: Target
Jacket: Old
Shoes: Neighborhood boutique 


The weather was in the thirties today and very cold but it actually felt quite nice later in the evening. I went out briefly outdoors to catch some fresh air and was actually surprised that I survived in my ankle pants. Weeks ago, I would have died of hypothermia! I wish the temps would get better though because we are all tired of the cold already. The duo toned sweater I am wearing was purchased from Forever 21 and I talked about it in this post here. I'm not so much a fan of graphic sweaters no matter how trendy they might be but I do like graphic tees so this duo toned purplish and red sweater is quite up my alley. Right now, I'm trying to put together my outfit for Church tomorrow and I pray that the weather is much more bearable than it is right now. The weather forecasts says it will be in the single digits tomorrow but I believe in Miracles.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stylishly Red


A red full skirt and white cropped top accessorized with neutral color accessories is the way to go for an outdoor event in the month of February when the weather is friendly. When the weather is not, the brown sandals can be replaced with a pair of knee high boots and long sleeve sweater top.






A black sleeveless peplum top and bold red pants can make a statement any day. Again in cold winter season, the louboutins can be switched out for a pair of cute black booties.

You can never go wrong with a red dress and these teal and gold accessories would go a long way in elevating the status of the dress from plain to edgy to classy.
