Mauve and Metallic

Hi Friends, I hope our week is going great; mine is calm and beautiful just like the weather we are currently enjoying in the twin cities. I just wish the weather would remain this way but I know the winter is lurking around the corner. My prayer is that the oncoming winter is not as harsh as the last one. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy this cool weather we are having right now.

This fluid ankle pants or pajama pants as some people call it is very suitable for this cool weather; very comfy and stylish at the same time. I paired it with this mauve color sweat-shirt tee which is 100% cotton and so comfy but I felt it was a little bit too clingy..:-). I would certainly throw a black jacket over this outfit next time. The metallic heels are my newest addition and I absolutely adore them. The wide ankle straps which are not so visible from the pics give the shoes some edgy look which I like. I also ordered them in black and they are currently on sale here.

Can you believe I got this multi color necklace from Walmart for only 10 bucks?...:-). Head out to your closest Walmart and check them out. I promised to do a post on my Walmart jewelry haul and I'll get to it as soon as possible. Also, I have not forgotten about my Loft necklace giveaway I talked about a couple of months back. I wanted to wait for the right time and to celebrate my birthday which is just around the corner, I will be doing the giveaway. So, watch out for the post. It's going to be fun just like my first. I'll give you a hint right now; the winner of the giveaway would be the first person to comment on the post. So, like I said, watcccch ooout...:-).

Separate but Equal

 What a beautiful day it is today in the twin cities! It is officially fall but the weather is gorgeous; sunny and cool at the same time. I felt it was the right weather to wear a pant suit and I thought of wearing this lime pant suit which are actually separates. I have had this lime eyelet jacket for years now and previously wore it on the blog here and here. The pant was however purchased on sale from Victorias secret last summer. The two colors are not a complete match but I figured that they do not have to be matchy-matchy in order to be a suit. I paired them with one of the graphic muscle tees I got recently from Forever 21 and I was good to go. Hey, do you remember these shoes from here?

Blue is my new black

I am back and I'm going to get the ball rolling hence forth...:-). I suddenly remembered or realized that October is my birthday month and I promised myself there will be no more slacking whatsoever including on my blog especially on my birthday month so I have decided to plan my schedule again; leaving some time for blogging every week like I did before and I'm going to make it work despite my tight schedule.

This jumpsuit here has been in heavy rotation in my closet lately. I ordered it from Forever 21 this summer and I have worn it to a couple of events already. Another realization I made recently is that; I love the  color blue. Green and purple used to be my favorite colors but these days I find myself unconsciously gravitating to the color blue and it was a no brainer that I picked this blue floral jumpsuit amongst all the colorful and pretty designs on the site. I'm so glad too that the jumpsuit have pockets; another win-win for me...:-).

It's amazing that this year is rolling to an end so fast and there is so much happening out there these days that one can do nothing but pray. You know what I mean? Prayers changes things. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I appreciate your visits and comments and would certainly check out your links.


**Peace**

Behind the scenes

Hi friends, I have been off from Blogsville for a few days because I have been super busy behind the scenes. I have been trying to create a perfect balance in my schedule in between work, family and other beautiful things that make life great. I hope everyone is doing good and having fun so far. Hopefully, I would have some more time soon to resume my normal blogging schedule.

This outfit is what I wore today to run errands around town and it is the outfit inspired by the Polyvore Collage I blogged about here sans the shorts. The shirt is pretty old and I have had it for years but I just can't let go of it yet because it's so comfy. I love the soft linen fabric. I'm currently craving this long sleeved version on J. Crew here. I swopped the shorts for some denim pants because fall is upon us already and it was a little chilly today. My new trench coat from Old navy came in handy too.

                                                   HERE                                          FOR THE HUBBY



 Now, back to business; while I was reading the e-mail alert about this giveaway, I was wondering why I never did any post on fragrances on this blog before now. It is not that I don't know what fragrances or perfumes are...hello!!!! **arms in the air...:-)**I just neglected to do it. Well, I'm glad I got to it now and I'll be heading over to my local Victoria's secret store to stock up on my mini collection.

These selections here are my favorites and you all know by now that I love me some Victoria's Secret...:-). I got addicted to this store over ten years ago mostly because it is a one-stop store and you can shop for anything on the go; underwear, clothes, shoes, accessories, sportswear, fragrances, lotion...talk about a brand. It is a real convenient store for any busy lady and their fall and winter clothing are just superb.

 Remember this verse from the bible?                           


                                                                               John 12: 3
 Mary then took a pound of very costly perfume of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.


If Jesus shows up in your room tonight, would you be ready and willing to acknowledge him? Would you worship and reverence him with your heart and soul? Are you willing to let him in your heart today? Taste and see that my God is good!!!!

Sneaky

 Hi All, I hope we've had a wonderful week and are ready for the weekend. This is a sneak peek of an outfit I wore recently; a green palm prints skirt and white blouse. Palm prints came on the scene as everyday prints some months ago and since I always thought it was the kind of prints reserved for the beach, I had some reservation about it until I saw this skirt on sale at J. C. Penny. Of course, I love the color green and that attracted me to the skirt and it had some sequin embellishment too.

                       Thanks so much for stopping by; I wish you a lovely and blessed weekend.

Print before falling

Hi Friends, I wasn't going to let the entire summer roll away into fall without wearing my beloved prints; leopard prints. The last time I wore this dress I was in my last trimester and you can see the post here. I decided to wear a sheer blouse over it this time and get a little print fix before fall comes upon me. Our evenings and mornings are already chilly here in MN.

My Coral Midi Skirt

Hi friends, I hope we all had a great weekend. We're having very beautiful weather today although it was cold the last couple of days. I decided to wear my coral color midi skirt that I purchased last summer today.  I have been loving the color "coral" lately and white is always my first color to pair coral with. It was also my first time today of wearing this pink and black statement necklace I purchased recently from Walmart for 10 dollars. I got to know of this super affordable necklace from other blogs  and I decided to check them out when I went in there for my kids' school supplies. They were of such high quality and there were so many beautiful colors and designs that I left the store with a couple. I'll do a post on my jewelry haul next time.
