Girly in Tulle

Hello Loves!

Today, I am taking this very feminine tulle number for a twirl. It is very natural for us to reach for those silver accessories when wearing grey because they go so well, but I opted for some gold accents for some juxtaposition to this outfit. As well as a pop of color with the pink pumps.

I added texture and a little bit of an edge with the faux leather jacket. Also perfect for warding off those summer late night chills.

Patterned in Black and White

Hello Guys,

Today, my love for black and white continues as I mix patterns. I'm wearing a Peter Pilotto for Target skirt which I've had for months, just waiting for it's moment in the spotlight. It almost feels like I've been saving it for something special but then I feel that way about most of the contents in my closet. So no more waiting. Why wait? Every moment should be as special as the next.

Happy Friday!!

Midi Dress

Hello Guys,
Just a quick hello before the weekend begins. It feels like the longest week ever, so I can't wait for the weekend.
This post features one of my steals from Macy's. Spent less than $10. Yay Sale! As we reach the last months of summer, lots of stores have end of summer sales and we get the urge to buy, buy, buy. The trick is figuring out what you can still wear into the winter and maybe even next summer as well, to get more bang for your buck.
Have a lovely weekend.

Independence in Structure: Red, White and Blue

Hey Guys!

It's the 4th of July and I cannot help but think about "Independence"- this great Country's Independence and especially our own personal Independence. To most, this may mean a whole lot of different things depending on one's life journey. When I was a kid, it meant taking walks by myself. As a teenager, picking out my own outfits.

This magic word means even more to me now than ever- Reaching my goals and being truly free. Today, my wish for us all is to find that ultimate happiness, whatever that might be and to be truly free.

About the look

Using structure and statement pieces, I Incorporated "red, white and blue" to create a classy chic look appropriate for the festivities but without looking like a costume.
