Green Puffer Coat + Black Denim

           ϸuffer coats made a big resurgence last fall in more dramatic styles and bold colors. I have had this green piece for years now and though it is not big or dramatic in size, it is bold in color. It's a thrifted piece I got years ago and yes, if you have read this blog long enough, you would know by now that a good part of my outerwear which includes blazers and coats and jackets were purchased pre-loved.

 Due to the harsh/cold seasons in my state, there is always good inventory of outerwear at our consignment and thrift stores. I threw the jacket over a plain white tee and black denim and completed the look with my worn combat boots and a lucite bag or clear bag. The clear bag is from Shein. Thank you so much for reading.

All white Outfit + Trench Coat

         𐌹n today's post, I'm wearing a Fall outfit that I repurposed for spring; Now that the weather has warmed up greatly, all my favorite trench and duster coats are in heavy rotation. A pair of snake print boots completed this all-white look along with this cow print bag that was gifted to me by my sister-in-law. You can find similar bags on Etsy.  I'll chat with you in my next post and thanks so much for reading.

Pink Trench coat on repeat + Red Shoes

        Ԋow is everyone doing? I hope okay. I'm going to make this post as short as possible. I'm wearing a fitted white long sleeve tee over denim which has become a sort of uniform for me these days. A fitted long sleeve tee is one of the most comfy and chic pieces to elevate a casual outfit in my opinion especially in the spring and fall seasons when the temperatures are low. 

I completed the look with my white pouch bag from Amazon and a pair of red color shoes that looks somewhat like brogues.  Although our weather is warming up, it still requires a light jacket or trench coat. Thank you so much for stopping by here.

Vintage trench coat + denim

 

         Ͳhe weather in Minneapolis is warming up and calls now for light dusters and trench coats. This outfit is what I wore a few days ago. The trench coat is a vintage piece I got from a consignment shop in my neighborhood years ago. I love the somewhat puffy sleeves which is a nod to the puffy sleeves trend this season. The khaki or green color makes it a statement trench coat suited for many seasons.

 I threw it over a white fitted long sleeve tee and light blue denim and accessorized with a multi color bag and this off white color ankle boots that is an old purchase from Asos.  I love the unusual heels on the boots; it looks like a wine cork. How is the spring season going where you are? There is so much going on in the world right now and I really appreciate you for taking the time to stop by here. Thanks so much for reading.

Bible Verse of the Day

Matthew 11: 28-30

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." 

Green Color Outfit Inspiration: ONE

        Green has always been one of my favorite colors though I do not wear or style it that much as a whole outfit. I have been drawn more to accessories but now I want to start styling whole green color outfits and this styleboard series is to help anyone with styling inspiration. Happy viewing, happy styling.

Shoe Lovin' - Clear floral glitter Pumps

           Ͳhe best piece of accessory or fashion item is the one that is so versatile that it can be styled with any look in our closet and is stylish and affordable at the same time. This pearlized glitter pumps from DSW strikes off every item on the versatile accessory list because it's very stylish and chic design makes for a great pairing with any outfit, casual or dressed up. It would go perfectly with most summer outfits because of the neutral colors, lucite accent and floral design. The glitter accent on the pump also makes it a great holiday shoe. This is definitely a winner in my book. Check it out  Here

                                                                                                        

Pink trench Coat + brown combat boots

        My pink trench coat adds a pop of color to my all-red outfit thereby creating a sort of color block; deep saturated colors are trending, and Spring is here so, it's time to get out the colors. This post though is mainly about my combat boots. This brown Guess combat boots was thrifted a few years ago when I wanted to test out the combat boots trend; previously styled here. 

I liked the look and comfort of the boots so much that I went ahead and purchased a new pair from DSW blogged about here also styled in my previous post.here. Combat boot is a trend that will be around for a while and even if it is no longer a trend, it's the right kind of boots to have in a winter boots collection. Thanks so much for reading.

All Red Outfit: Red Wool Coat

       Red is the color for the month of February, symbolizing "Heart health month" and also one of  the celebratory colors of love for those who celebrate Valentine and of course, February is also Black History Month. Red is low key one of my favorite colors and my favorite way of styling it is by going the way of monochrome. 

I wore this outfit to Church last Sunday; a red knit dress, red wool coat and reddish brown leather boots to add texture to the outfit. I purchased the red wool coat from Metrostyle years ago and I currently love this olive color lapel coat here. The red sweater bag is an old thrifted piece. You can find similar knit or sweater bags on Etsy.

Spring Wish List

 

        My spring wish list has a somewhat green color scheme this season and that is because I have been drawn to the color green lately and also puffy sleeves which is a big trend this year by the way. The most expensive item on my list is this beautiful Bottega Veneta lido sandals but I'm not going to drop $1,500 on a trendy sandal. Thankfully, brands like Vince Camuto have the faux leather options at very affordable price points.

Houndstooth statement coat + Combat boots

 

       Winter calls for warm cozy coats and even better when the coat is also stylish too. This long gingham coat is that trusted piece for me. I decided to style it with a grey knit dress and combat boots for this post. The weather is starting to warm up and though it was sunny in this post, it was still quite cold. 

However, it's almost time to put away the winter coats but this piece would definitely be the last to be stowed away. And I have said it on here so many times, it was thrifted for less than $50 at a consignment store. How do you beat that? Hurray to sustainable fashion. Thanks so much for stopping by.
