ΰ€½ummer is a time to wear easy, breezy dresses like this tiered, smocked embroidered dress that I have had in my closet for a long time. I purchased it from a friend years ago that had a small clothing/accessories business. You can always find dresses like this in the stores in the summer time and they have been trending somewhat along with baby doll dresses this summer thanks to H&M. The dress is a strapless dress and since I needed some cover on my shoulders, I threw a small crop top over it. My tan color pouch bag and square toed mules completed the look. Summer is almost over as we know so this brown color is suitable for this sunny weather that is gradually coming to an end. What do you think of the baby doll and tiered dress trend? Please, do not stop in your support of small businesses and black and brown owned businesses. Stay home, stay safe and stop the spread..
δΈ he color palette this Fall is; "Shades of brown" and if you need a little inspiration on how to style this hue for the season, look no further. This posts features a monochromatic look which is the best way to style this beautiful fall color. Whenever, I put monochrome looks together, I always think of textures in the outfit in addition to the different shades of color. The different textures in a monochromatic outfit results in a stylish and interesting look. In the above collage, all the pieces are designer splurge pieces and the collage/set is mainly for styling inspiration. If you have been reading this blog for a long time, you'll know by now that I always advocate for affordable and sustainable fashion. So, as you style a similar outfit like this, just think quality pieces, different shades of brown and different textures of fabric and accessories; leather, silk, wool, suede....happy styling π
Ξ€his pink puffy sleeve dress was on my wish list for Mother's day this year and I'm really glad I was able to get it considering the fact that it was in huge demand at all HM locations and quickly sold out. The puffy sleeve which is my favorite summer trend by the way and the pink bold color and free flowing style of this dress just makes it the perfect lounging piece to wear and just lounge at home over the weekend. I styled the dress with my dark pink beaded earrings from Jcrew and multi color sandals from DSW. The straw bag which I have had for a while completed the look. I look forward to styling this piece again in the fall. Thanks so much for visiting.

πeal fashion or style cannot fully be achieved without a mix of high and low pieces and this is the main reason, the very reason why every one should consider thrifting or consignment shopping followed by sustaining and protecting the earth. Even high end designers and stylists do thrifting or flea market shopping or vintage shopping or consignment shopping. Whatever you decide to call it, or how you decide to do it does not matter; it is just important that you consider it. These days, you do not have to go to a physical store like Goodwill to thrift as there are so many thrift stores online like Thred - Up, Porshmark or the The Real Real. Today is "National thrifting day" and I would love to share with you the four reasons why I thrift.
