Hi Friends, so have you heard the news? If you live in America or North America, you might have heard of the impending summer chill; Polar Vortex or whatever name it is being called by the meteorologists? Can you imagine that? Cold snap in the middle of summer when we are supposed to be having 90 degrees weather and swimming in the pools and beaches or sipping on cold lemonades under  sun umbrellas? Well, it might not be that bad for those that live in the warm southern states. For those of us that live in the arctic region, **clears throat** it is time to go and get out the light spring jackets again. The Meteorologists predict it will only last for a few days but let's wait and see. It seems like I ordered my trench coat just in time after all; **smiling face**

These are some of the trenchy looks I put together on polyvore with a hint of animal prints. I do not own any of these expensive designer items in these collages but I own a trench coat and it might just come in handy the next couple of days.

How is the week going for everyone? I hope great. I have a couple of events to attend in the next few days and I am still thinking of what and what is coming out of the closet. Have you been taking a look at my scripture/inspiration gadget at the top right hand corner of my blog? A scripture a day is real medicine for the soul and takes all the stress of life away.

Trench In..

Hi lovelies, I hope everyone is doing great and feeling blessed. I'm walking on sunshine though it's been drizzling in Minnesota on and off the whole day…:-). You want to know why? I'm close to getting all the items on my "What I want for summer list" I took advantage of the recent semi annual sale at Victoriassecret and purchased this trench coat that was on my list. It was originally $198.00 but it's currently on sale for $138.00. Now, I can give my old worn out leather trench coat a break. Living in a state that has longer months of winter and spring, I think it is a great idea to own at least two trench coats. My old trench is simple and cute while this new addition is chic and stylish. The leather trimmings give it an edgy look. Now, as I strike one more item off my list, I'm feeling blessed and thankful.

There are so many sales going on right now in stores and this might just be the time to buy some of those favorite pieces on your list. Some people get shy or embarrassed to say they got something on sale or off the clearance rack but not me!…:-). I like a good sale any day. I have never been much of a jewelry lady but I have been getting some pieces here and there since I started blogging. These are some of the pieces I might just strike off my list.

The Haul in the yellow Package

Hi Friends; I finally got to take pictures of the contents of the Forever 21 package that I talked about in this post here. These are some of the pieces I would be wearing this summer and if you have perused previous posts on this blog you might have seen some of these items in some of my Polyvore collages here and here. The HGTV magazine was used as a prop to throw in some color to the black and white pieces; also one of my favorite magazines to read. Yeah, that silver sterling bracelet was also purchased at Forever 21 on clearance for less than $6 bucks. I hope everyone is having a great week so far.

                                                                     Stay blessed and thanks for stopping by.

My 4th of July

Happy Independence day America! 

Hi beauties; I hope you all are having a great weekend so far. For the readers in the USA, I wish you a happy 4th weekend celebration. I started my holiday early since I have been off work since wednesday.  Yesterday was spent indoors for the most part then we went out in the evening to visit some friends and watch the fire works. As usual for me, the outfit colors for the day were white blue and red. You can never go wrong with those colors as there are so many combinations and variations you can do with it as regards styling.

The celebration continues today. It is also one of my friend's birthday today so, I will be stopping over at her place later on. I have been trying so hard not to eat too much but I enjoy the quality time I am spending with my peeps. Did you dress up in patriotic colors for the 4th? Please share…

Palm prints are in but I do not think I love this trend as such. I have a feeling that palm prints should be reserved exclusively for beach wear. If I have to try this trend at all, I would do it this way. You can check my other collages on Polyvore here.

This slip on raffia pump is so, sleek, chic and pretty and the mix of tribal print and the solid green makes it look so sophisticated too. It is so versatile that it can pair with lots of colors; beige, black, white, yellow...cute.

White and Coral

Hi Lovelies, I hope everyone had a great weekend because the weekend is pretty much over. Like I said in my previous post, we have been having lots and lots of rain in Minnesota of late and several counties are already dealing with flooding. My heart goes out to all those that were affected. I'm glad that my area was not flooded and we got some break from the rain today too. The beautiful weather today brought me so much joy and how else do you express happiness in clothing than in wearing all white outfit. I have noticed this all white trend recently too but it was something I was not going to do all the way. And that in my opinion is what everyone should do with trends; pick and choose. It's not cool to embrace every trend that you see out there. And if you must embrace it, it's okay to tweak it here and there and put your own mark on it. Okay, so I decided to accessorize my all white outfit with coral colors and this is how it turned out.

I wish everyone a great week ahead. Thanks so much for stopping by. The current giveaway on the blog ends at midnight today and the winners will be published tomorrow. The entries were few as I didn't have time to visit new blogs and spread the news but it is all good. I love my present followers who I prefer to refer to as my friends because that is what they are to me. We all get together in this little space to talk about what ladies love to talk about all the time…:-) 

Also, I always make sure to follow blogs back. So, if you join/follow my site, I will surely follow yours. I am very nosy and want to know what is going on in other blogs…:-). How else can I know what is happening in your blog unless I have you in my radar, newsfeed, bloggers dashboard or bloglovin?..:-).   I also enjoy giving comments and feedbacks. So, if you leave a comment here, I'll always come to your blog to follow up on the conversation. Blogging is so much fun when it is interactive. 

Thanks so much for stopping by
