Plaid Paper bag Pants + a Sweater

 

 

 

Happy Monday Friends 😙 So, this is just a quick work wear post of one of my favorite colors to wear in the Fall; grey. This time, I decided to style the color in two of the season's trends; plaid prints and paper-bag pants. I always like it when I can fit two trends seamlessly into an outfit effortlessly. When done right, it gives a very clean and polished look. If you get the styling wrong, there is that perception that you are trying too hard or as some would call it, you are a "trend...wh--e" or "label...wh--e;" without spelling out the whole word. The trick to achieving this look (two-trends-in-one) starts right from when you do your shopping. Always look out for that piece that can serve multiple functions or that accessory that can be styled in different ways. When you get that one piece

How to style a little black dress for Fall + red box bag

 Happy Friday everyone 😆 I hope you are all doing great. This is a quick post to show this outfit I wore to Church last Sunday. This is actually a sleeveless turtle neck dress that I have had for years and it looks quite good worn by itself on a warmer day but the weather was a little chilly so I decided to layer a dress underneath the black turtle neck dress. Also, because the weather was bearable, I went bare on the legs without stockings and I had on a long coat too (not pictured) which I took off when it got warmer. So, do not abandon that little black dress in the closet in the Fall especially when it is simple and tailored like this one; an old Zara piece.


Today is Friday the 13th and I know there is so much superstition surrounding this date but I do not pay attention to all that negativity surrounding a particular date or day of the week. I am a Christian, born again, saved and blessed and no date or day determines my life. AMEN! Christ has already

Fun with Plaids - Casual Style

 

 

 

Hi Friends; I hope you are not tired of the plaid trend yet because for me, it just started. I really love the trend and I would be doing more outfit collage sets on here. Today's post is on how to style the plaid blazer for casual wear. The set above features the plaid blazer paired with a pair of pink pants and a pair of sneakers. The red cross body bag adds a pop of color to the outfit. The second set below features a more dressed up casual look. The paid blazer is paired with a white button down shirt, a statement necklace and a pair of tan color high heeled pumps and a statement bag. What do you think

Tie waist Pants + mint color Pumps

 Hi there, just a quick post here on what I wore recently; a short sleeved turtle neck top over waist-tie pants.  I purchased the pants from LOFT a few weeks ago during their one-week sale and it was the color of the pants that really drew me in. This is my second olive color or khaki pants and I might go for a third if I find one in a style I like just like this one. Short sleeve turtle neck tops are not so common in the stores and I do not even remember what store I got this from because I have had it for a long time. if you can't get an affordable one to buy, you can always do a "DIY." Just cut off the

Summer Top + Summer Accessories

 

     Nothing says Summer more than bright colors and lemonade. I fell in love with this one shoulder top when I first saw it on Loft's Website and my only disappointment was that it was one shouldered because I really do not like to expose my shoulders and arm that often. I found a solution to styling this top by wearing a nude color sleeveless top underneath. A straw bag and white sandals completed the look. This lemonade print top is part of a Loft Collection that features a matching pair of shorts for this top and a very beautiful summer dress with the same print. I hope the summer is going great so far. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Camel Coat + Denim

     Hi everyone, I hope we are all doing great. So, it's Friday, woot! woot!! This outfit is what I wore a few weeks ago. The weather was nice and beautiful and I was glad I did not have to wear a heavy jacket. I got out my sleeveless coat instead which I purchased from The House of Fraser UK. It was my first time shopping from the store and I really liked the price and quality of the sleeveless coat. I have since made a couple of other purchases from them. I paired the coat with a white top, denim, and mixed animal prints accessories which was very intentional. I had debated

Blue off-the-shoulder-top + denim

Hello Friends; another quick post here on how I styled my yellow fringe sandals. Blue and yellow complement each other nicely and when you add white to the mix, it is even better. I loved this cobalt blue top when I saw it online because of the color and style and since it was very affordable, I ordered it. It took forever to get to me all the way from China and at a time I gave up on the order vowing not to ever make any purchase from any overseas store based in China. The top eventually got to me in good condition and

Smmer Dress + Fringe Sandals

Hi friends; happy Monday. This is post is on pictures that have been in my archive for a long time; possibly from last summer and I totally forgot to blog about them. Usually when I'm going out somewhere, I hand my phone to the kids and have them take a couple pics before we get in the car and most of the time, I just forget about the pictures. I recently did some house cleaning on my blog folders and found lots of old pictures. What a great fashion blogger I am 😂 There are

Green linen dress + a scarf

Hi friends; how is everyone doing? This is just a quick post here where I wore very old items from my closet or as people would say; shopped my closet. I purchased this lime green linen dress from TJMaxx a long time ago. I really love the beautiful color. The only downside is that it wrinkles really easily and as much as I love the beautiful color and simplicity of the dress;

Yellow Pants + PomPom Sandals

Hi Friends, this might just be the shortest blog post I ever wrote because this outfit is very simple just the way I like it. I am wearing sun-shiny yellow pants to celebrate summer. I paired it with a "body-suit-button-down white shirt." I purchased the shirt from Victoriassecret clothing shop a while back and loved it so much that I got it in three colors. The "body-suit-button-down shirt" definitely makes it easy to tuck in shirts
