Graphic tee + Gingham

Hi Friends; first of all, I want to say a big thank-you to all of you who stopped by to send me good wishes on my recent outfit post when I shared the mishap that happened in my home. Thank God my son is okay now and though we are still keeping a close eye on him, we believe that he is well and that God delivered us from a major mishap. We are all so careful now more than ever when we use the stairs; my house is three levels high and with very high ceilings so our staircases are pretty long.

Another good thing that came out of the mishap was "instant fitness." I stayed up the whole saturday night pacing up and down for most of the time and my body reacted to the unplanned exercise. I think I might have lost about five pounds from the stress because everyone around me noticed and told me so before I confirmed it on my scale.

It's been a little brisk in Minneapolis the last couple of days especially in the mornings and it did get brisk enough to require a sweater. I decided it was a good day yesterday to put on this graphic long sleeve tee I bought a few months back and blogged about here. I just love the message; such a sweet reminder on the importance of prayers.  I paired it with this gingham pant I purchased from Loft last summer which is currently on sale here  and I finished the look with a grey bag and this black, thick, ankle strap pumps. I tried to add some color to the outfit with my red lips but I do not think I was able to pull it off...:-).

Pants: Loft
Pumps: VS Shoes (old)
Tortoise shell sunnies: Loft
Bag: Rossetti

Did you notice that this pumps are identical to the silver ones I wore in my last post? They were on sale at Victoriassecret website last summer and I decided to get the two pairs. I like the unique bold, ankle strap and the fact that they are detachable too. It's always great to have versatile pieces in our closets. 

Thanks so much for stopping by

Style Muse-Yes she did!

I am so excited to be writing about my style crush again; Victoria Beckham. She is one woman I admire her fashion sense in the entire universe because she is always simple, chic, elegant and sophisticated at the same time. She does not wear tons of accessories either save for her sky-high heels and cute bags but wait a minute; that was then...

Victoria Beckham has been coming out a lot lately in flats due to the foot condition bunions, that she admits she now suffers from. She was seen recently in flip-flops when she vacationed with her family at Disney Land! Oh, yes she did!! The great thing though, is that she looks equally cute in flip-flops as she does in heels. This lady can do no wrong when it comes to fashion.

I love seeing  pictures of her and her lovely family and I just got excited to share recent pictures of her on the blog again. See the last post on her here.

Do you enjoy VB's fashion as I do; do you like to keep it simple or you rather layer on the accessories? What are your thoughts on her fashion sense or her love for heels? I do love heels too but I always break up my look once in a while by wearing a pair of flats. Common sense is needed sometimes when it comes to making fashion choices...:-).

Glam Sunday!!!

Happy Sunday friends; I'm so excited and still very giddy and happy from all the fun I had today at church and I have a testimony too. Yeah, testimony for those who don't know is; "when something awesome happens to you and you realize and know that it happened to you only by divine intervention." (I did not check the dictionary for the exact definition of this word but I am very sure I got the definition right)

So, here it goes; my first son who turns eight next month slipped and fell down the stairs yesterday and landed on his head on the hard tiled floor while I was busy cooking in the kitchen. He started to bleed from the mouth and cried and hyperventilated for hours and we had to take him to the emergency and it turned out he had a mild concussion from the fall. We spent the night at the hospital and he was discharged this morning and all scans and x-rays show that he is okay and guess what? It's my hubs birthday today! What a way to celebrate a birthday eve; I was awake the whole night praying for my son and the family! My son had never been hospitalized before last night and it was a very scary situation for me. Now, I just thank God that he is well and my family is okay and we can laugh and celebrate and thank God for his mercies.

So, you see, I had double reason to be all dressed up for church today; to celebrate my son's quick recovery and my hub's birthday. After the church service, we went out to dinner and had some great seafood. This Chicwish dress was my first choice this morning when I looked in the closet. I paired it with some silver accessories and allowed the dress to be the main focus because it's got such bold floral prints. I love this dress so much that I ordered it in two other patterns and colors. I fell in love with the design the first time I saw it when I was putting this graduation outfit together on Polyvore. If you are thinking of wearing chic and elegant feminine clothes, just stop by Chicwish; that website is the best thing to happen to women's fashion lately.

Dress: Chicwish
Jewelry: Vintage
Shoes: VS Shoes (sold out)
Necklace: Express

I hope you all had a great weekend and was able to spend quality time with family and friends. Do not hesitate to take some time out too to thank God for his mercies and to show appreciation for the love and life that he has bestowed on you. I wish you all of God's blessings.

Jesus Heals Ten Lepers

2 Kings 5:1-14

11And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: 13And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. 14And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. 15And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

White and Tribal

Happy Friday Friends; It is supposed to be casual day today but I am all dressed up. I am expecting some friends over later in the day and I decided to skip the casual look and get a little bit more dressy for my hosting duties. This outfit comprises of items that have been in the closet for ages but never made it on the blog until now and I am glad that I was able to do something different for my hair too. I accessorized the look with this neckpiece I got from Walmart last summer for only $9.99 and this cute pumps I purchased a while back. I love the pumps because it is so comfy, trendy and affordable and I can always wear it whenever I need to add a great pop of color to my outfit like I did today.

Scarf: DIY (African print)
Top and skirt: Macys (old)
Neckpiece: Walmart
bracelet: old
Pumps:  LFL Electrick blogged about here

I hope you all are doing great. I am sad that the summer is almost over but I am very excited for fall because it is my favorite time of the year. The kids are going back to school soon too and that is always a bitter sweet moment for a lot of Moms. I wish all of you God's blessings for the rest of the summer.

Hiya! I have no idea what is going on in Minneapolis this week; it's been raining everyday since sunday and I'll not mind the rain if I am able to get occasional peek at the sun but it's been very cloudy too. The temps is even in the 60s today; kind of looks like fall weather. Fall is my favorite season of the year so actually no big deal.

Well, I stopped by at Polyvore's website to browse trends for the upcoming season and I put the above pieces together. I am just window shopping though because I am still on a shopping freeze. How is the weather at your end?
