Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy Monday.  I hope everyone had a blessed and productive weekend. Mines consisted of baking in this extremely hot weather feeling like I was melting every second. I know i shouldn’t complain especially when it could be worse but seriously heat and me do not mix.

In today’s look this jean jacket is a favorite all time of mine and it comes from Kimora Lee Simmons old line babyphat. Anybody that knows me knows how much I love baby phat clothing. I actually had matching jeans to the jacket but got rid of it smh

What I love about this jacket is that it has the words faith written on it and a cross on one of the sleeves. In this world that we are living in you have to have faith in order to get through all that you may be doing through.

I know i can relate at times. I paired the jacket with this amazing black sleeveless jean jumper that my husband purchased for me. I love the fit of it. Can you believe it is the Nikki minaj collection from kmart. 

I wore my Burgendy adidas which I love as well. It made the whole look go perfect . Added a statement necklace and hat and it was perfect .

I would totally paired the jumper with boots and a button down shirt to transition for fall. Let me know your thoughts on this look.

Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy thursday.  I hope everyone has been having a blessed and productive work week so far. 

I wanted to share another fun work look that can totally go from day to night. This bright pink almost neon pink vest is so amazing I love how bright it is and I would so pair it with jean and a white tee and pumps.

The skirt was the perfect fit as I love a good pencil skirt and the colors and pattern was amazing. Paired with a simple black tee and black mules as I wanted the vest and skirt to stand out. 

Hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

Hope everyone had a great weekend. I wanted to share you with a new series called work wear monday where I will share with you some nice work outfits that won’t let you feel frumpy and blue.

I love thrifting as I  am able to find unique finds that stand out. Like this floral dress that I scored. It was actually a size 12 but I love wearing items more lose than fitted I guess it’s all about being older lol.

I paired the dress with these purple espadrilles that I scored via poshmark and wore matching hat for the extra touch.

Hope youenjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy Tuesday hope everyone is having a great start to their work week . It’s also a brand new month which I love. 

When I took pictures for this look I said summer glow cause the way the pictures and the whole look. It was perfect summer time fit.

The skirt I thrifted brand new with tags from the salvation army for 7 dollars.  The split gives it that extra sexy but classy look. 

I paired it with a simple tshirt and some sandals added a bold Lip and it was perfect. 

Hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy Tuesday hope everyone is enjoying this extremely hot weather we have been getting lately. Me on the other hand like it a little cooler. 

This floral series will be coming to an end as I have one more look to present later on this week. Let’s get into this look. 

This off white lace skirt is so amazing I love the detail about it. Can you believe I only paid 15 dollars from my local store. I paired it with this floral oversize top from h&m which I adored and paired it with a floral crown and jeweled sandals.

Love to hear your thoughts on this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

I wanted to share a new post with you today. If you saw my post from last week then you know my obsession with maxi skirts and floral print. 

This skirt was love at first sight but I think all my clothes I fall in love with when first seeing them lol. 

I saw this skirt at the local mystique boutique in soho. If your a new yorker you know that is where to go from time to time to find some amazing clothing for half the price 

I paired this skirt with a basic white tee to   make the skirt stand out. I paired it with a bold statement necklace. This necklace I purchased from express years ago and it is still an amazing piece. 

To add the extra touch I wore some white lace espadrilles that I purchased last summer from my favorite store kohls. 

Hope you enjoy the look. Until next time

Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy Thursday . I hope everyone had an amazing, blessed and productive week. This week will be about floral as I have been loving the print lately and it has been piling up in my closet lol.

When I saw this floral maxi skirt with matching crop top. I knew it had to come home with me. For one I love maxi skirts. 

I wanted to make the crop top work appropriate so I paired it with a camisole and blazer. This was look I actually wore to work and then out to dinner for my husband’s bday so it shows how you can wear an outfit for work and play. 

Hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas, 

Happy Wednesday it was a nice and long extended weekend in which I always state the weekends is what I live for. 

I have not been blogging like I normally do is because if you follow me on social media I started a new job in which I al enjoying and getting used to. 

There has been so many different obstacles and challenges that have been thrown my way but I see such a clearer path my way hence the title of my post.

Stepping out on faith is the beginning but seeing my purpose is so much clearer now in a different element.

On to the look :). This jumpsuit is from last summer from H & m and it is perfect comfortable and of course my favorite leopard print but in different colors. 

I paired it with some denim espadrilles and matching hat. Hope you enjoy the look until next time.

Camouflage your feelings

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday I hope everyone had a blessed and productive weekend and start to the work week.

Let’s get into today’s look. I love camo print but something told me to just look up the meaning which we know it was often used in the military as way to disguise yourself from your enemy.

Sometimes we often hide are feelings about how we truly feel about things or situations that are going on around us.

It’s best to be up front and speak your mind and thoughts cause disguising or holding it in is just pointless.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy thursday we are closer to the end of the work week and this has been a great one as I stepped Into a new role with a new job which I will talk about soon but it has been amazing so far.

Often times we talk about people that inspire us but how about talking about inspiring your own self. This is what this post is about.

I wrote a letter to myself and I will share it with you below. Enjoy

Dear Andrea,

Today is a new day and a fresh start. Today is the day you move forward and let the past be the past. To let go of the hurt, pain and anger that you have been holding on to for so long.

Today you start a new chapter in your life where you are not worrying about what others think or perceive of you.

You are loved and you are blessed. Do not worry about those who pass judgement on you or treat you negatively instead continue to love and speak positivity.

Today you vow to stay true to who you are and live your life to the fullest and never looking back. Keep striving and reaching for your goals and dreams and remember to always love yourself first and unconditionally. Keep inspiring.
