Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Wednesday.  I hope everyone weekend was blessed and amazing.  If you follow me on snap chat then you know my weekend consisted of just being present and living in the moment. There are often times we forget about the simple things in life such as being with our family and friends especially when you are always busy and on the go.

For me that is my life at times so I dedicated the whole weekend spending time with my husband and family which is always a great time.

Now on to the look :). Gray is like the new black in many ways as it goes well with some many colors believe it or not. I paired one of my favorite midi skirts with this nice leopard print top that I purchased from h and m last year. Paired it with a cute suede moto jacket and leopard flats and the look was perfect.

I like to call it my working girl on the move look lol. I am always on the go.
I hope you enjoyed the look and I love to hear your thoughts and comments. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday  and I hope everyone had a great weekend. Two weekends ago I was able to shoot with a fellow blmgirl in my group and it was so fun. We call it photo swapping because we all know at times it can be hard to afford a photographer or in my chances get my husband to take my photos all the time. So it was fun to have someone else Try a shot.

Let’s get to the look. This thrifted military jacket was on my thrift wish list for so long , so when I was able to purchase it from one of my favorite shops on instagram missrockwellracks I was too excited.

It was perfect and I added three broaches to the jacket to give it my extra touch. I paired it with some boyfriend jeans and a thrifted sweater and wore my sequin keds.

This look is perfect for the weekend to just enjoy and relax. The clutch was the extra touch. I’m such a fan of the show a different world so when I saw this clutch from kashmir I fell in love.

I hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

This is one of my favorite maxi skirts as its colorful and has a fun print to it. I decided to being the skirt out by wearing a did color sweater and pairing it with a denim jacket.

I opted to wear booties which I’m currently obessed with and these sam edelman ones I adore especially for the print.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday. Hope everyone had a blessed and amazing weekend. I had to say mines was cool can not complain as things can be worse.

I know the title your wondering the cold shoulder right lol. The cold shoulder trend is really trending strong and I wanted to try it out.

What better is way is with this crop off the shoulder shirt I scored at my local marshalls for 4 dollars can you believe. I love a good deal. I paired it with some cargo crop pants and some wedges.

I adored this look as you can wear this to go out on a date or a girls night out.
Tell me how do you rock the cold shoulder trend.

Until next time

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Thursday. I hope everyone has been enjoying their week and making the best of it. I wanted to share with you my look from Easter Sunday. As i spent it with my family which is always a good time when we get together.

I enjoy wearing light colors especially pastel colors. I was able to finally wear this amazing dress from my favorite store New York and Company. It is from the eva mendes collection and i was able to pay only $20 dollars for the dress which was a steal. I love the colors and the mix of burgundy and pinks. I paired the outfit with a light blush pink blazer and these amazing sparkly blush color shoes from DSW.

I really loved the whole look and enjoyed hearing an amazing word on that day from my pastor. I hope you enjoy the look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday hope everyone had a great Easter weekend. I must say my weekend was so amazing. I was able to spend time with my family and attend church to hear and amazing word. If you follow me on snap chat then you heard the extra word my pastor gave to me and my husband.

When i saw this suit at target i knew i had to get it. I waited too long at the time it came out but the thrift store to the rescue lol. I love thrifting and i have to say over time i have gotten very good and know where to go and what to find.

I have a tendency to match everything so when i realized i had the matching stockings i had to laugh at myself. The whole look was super cute and perfect. It was actually one of my work looks but also would use to go on an interview as well.

I hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday. I hope everyone had a great weekend. My weekend was all about relaxation and really not doing anything except trying to clean up my house and sort through clean clothing. Now that spring time is here it is time to do spring cleaning. If you know me then you know i love to shop but lately i have been shopping my closet lately and it has been so much fun. The ideas and styling are endless and it gives me the chance to wear certain items more than once ( I know don’t judge me lol).

This flair metallic gold and black designed skirt i love as it gave me a vintage feel and vibe. I wanted to dress it down by wearing it with a denim button down shirt. I paired it with some black boots and my black motor jacket for the extra touch.

This skirt was so amazing and i can pair it in so many ways. I would wear it with a crop top and denim jacket with some flats or sandles to give it a different touch. Even wearing some converse would change it up as well. I hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope everyone is doing well and getting started on their work week on the right foot.

I wanted to talk with you about nails yes nails. As ladies we often lime to keep up with the hottest trends. For me I love a simple manicure.

Whether it’s nude or bright colors.

One of my favorite polishes are by Sally Hansen.  I recently had the opportunity to try out their all in one manicure polish and I must say I love it.

According to this particular one it’s a base coat and polish in one. I have to say that it’s long lasting . Mines lasted a week before chipping.

If you add a good top coat every few days it can last longer in my experience.

The polish is usually seven dollars at your local drug store.

I love this blue number 550 blue my mind.

Purple is my favorite color perfect for spring number 365 what in carnation

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy thursday we are almost at the end of this work week and excited as well cause it has been a long and stressful one.

I wanted to bring back thrifted Thursdays where I showcase a thrifted item and show you how I style it. This grey sweater is so amazing it has a peplum touch to it and zipper detail along which makes it so sexy.

I paired it with a grey stonewash jean and boots. I wore my favorite moto jacket. If you want to add extra spark add vintage brooches. I have been so obessed with them they make the perfect look for any jacket.

Hope you enjoy this look. Until next time.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy thursday. We are closer to the weekend and I hope everyone has had a great week this far. The weather has been amazing this week. Looking forward to spring.

I wanted to share a look I wore when I was in Florida last month. The weather was not that great. I guess we brought new york Temps with us lol.

When going on vacation I try not to over pack as I know you really don’t wear half of what you pack. I loving olive color more and more and my wardrobe is having more of it in my closet.

I paired some boyfriend jeans with a striped shirt and oversize denim thrifted jacket. The fringe boots were the extra touch. This look was perfect for the double date I had with hubby and a good friend of mine from high school. I was comfortable and cute.

Hope you enjoyed this look. Until next time.
