Polka Dots + Red wide-leg Pants

Happy Wednesday Friends, I hope the week is going great. I do not celebrate Valentine on February 14th as I believe Love should be celebrated any day and everyday; so, I did not make much fuss about it here on the blog. I have been married for over ten years and I have two boys and two girls ranging from ages three to ten and I strongly believe that love should be celebrated between couples especially on anniversaries and birthdays. If February 4th Valentine celebration happens to be one of the special days you celebrate with your spouse; it is perfectly okay.

My outfit for the day is a polka dots blouse tucked into a pair of red wide legged pants purchased from Victoriassecret years ago. They are the most comfortable and trendy pants ever and the quality is amazing; definitely the perfect work pants. The polka dots blouse is from Loft and currently sold out but I have included links of similar items below the pics if you want to check them out. This outfit is feminine and chic at the same time and definitely appropriate for work in a corporate setting on Valentine's day or day after Valentines. Keep spreading the love 💞

Dressing up for that special night or event can be as easy as a breeze when you have the right outfit and accessories available. Once you pick up an outfit, the next step is to pick all the pretty little accessories to go with the look. If you want a feminine look, then you should accessorize with pieces/items with ruffles, flowers, pearls and crystals or diamonds based on your budget. On the other hand, if you need a more edgy look, then you have to go with straps, studs, tassels or plain bold clutches like the accessories in Style board #2 above. Happy styling.

Striped Shirt + White wide leg Pants

Happy Monday Everyone; another work wear outfit today on the blog. We all know striped shirts are trending at the moment and there is always something extra about the striped blouses/shirts; ruffles, and more ruffles, dramatic sleeves, and necklines; just name it. This neck tie blouse I am wearing here is an old purchase from Loft and the white wide-legged pants is from Nordstrom; also an old purchase. It is always a great delight when clothing items from season's past are still trendy in present day and that is one great reason why it is important that we buy classy and timeless pieces. The neck tie detail on this striped long sleeved blouse which is sometimes referred to as the "pussy neck blouse" gives a feminine touch to the formal striped work shirt. The blouse is currently sold out in this design/stripes at Loft but there are other great options of neck tie blouses on-line. My blue patent pumps completed the look.


How is your week going? I hope you are starting the new work week with a new and better attitude in life? I woke up this morning with a renewed  attitude to keep living my life with a God-given purpose at all times. N o material possession or life situation should change our God given purpose in life. 'you want to know more about this God given purpose? Check out my scripture of the day below. As always, these pics were taken on my front porch with my iPhone by my five year old daughter  😁 Thanks a lot for stopping by my blog and for your sweet thoughts and comments.

Cable knit sweater + pleated red Skirt

Since it is #throwback Thursday on social media, this is a quick post on what I wore to church last Sunday. This long red pleated skirt was custom made years ago; I purchased the pleated fabric from a fabric store and sent it to my seamstress and had it made. Pleated skirts are on trend right now and my skirt has been in heavy rotation. Since the maxi skirt is somewhat dramatic, I just threw on a simple black sweater over it. Also, the weather was somewhat cold so the cable knit sweater was even better because it is very warm and comfy due to the extra knit. Have a happy weekend in advance.

Blue Blazer + Grey flared pants

Happy Wednesday 😘 Just a quick post here today on another work wear outfit. I'm wearing a dark blue color blazer over a pair of grey wide leg pants. The grey pant is actually a part of a two piece pant suit ensemble but I ditched the grey blazer for this blue blazer to create a color block effect. Grey is such a cool color to wear in the winter season but I wasn't in the mood for a two piece monochrome look. The blue blazer is a thrifted piece and my pant is an old purchase from Nordstrom. Click on the link to shop similar items for work.


Valentine day is around the corner I know but it is not a holiday I celebrate so, I'm not doing any outfit inspiration for valentine. However, red and black  are colors that always work for valentine and if you need more inspiration; check out my style boards on Polyvore when you click the style board link on the right of this blog. You can also check out my style boards on my second Instagram feed; @beautyfashionzone. Thanks so much for stopping by.
