Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Wedensday.  Today is going to be a hot one so im going to try and keep cool the best way I can. I know your wondering about the title of my new post. Now I have stated how much I love midi skirts as I feel they are classic and look great dressed up or down.

I recently purchased this midi skirt from my local H & M and when I first saw it was love at first site lol. I kove the material and design so I purchased right away.  It does come with a matching crop top but I love the skirt on its own.

I paired it with my red peplum top from express from last summer and had it tucked in. I wore it with my studded flats and wore bright yellow jewlery to bring out that part of the skirt.

One of my young ladies I talk with in my neighborhood called my skirt grandma skirt and I laughed. I told her its because she is young but this is a fashion. Hence where the title come from.

It also made me realized that I do not care to be like everyone else and im enjoying the changes I see in my overall style. I received many compliments on this outfit and I look forward to wearing this skirt again. I hope you enjoyed this look as much as I did. Until next time.

Workout Gear

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  I know by the post title you are all thinking workout gear but yup its correct.  Now we  all hate to workout but I try as best as I can. When I saw these printed work out pants from marshalls I had to have them. They are by Cynthia Rowley and they are great.

When I saw them I said how can I style these and use them more for just working out at the gym. I decided to keep the focal point on the pants and wear basic solid colors so this black top from old navy and blazer from Jessica Simpson went perfect.  I paired it with my studded loafers from target and statement necklace from forever21.  It was a great work look.

I hope this inspires you to think outside of the box and dont limit yourself when it comes to clothing.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Wedensday.  The weather in NYC has been amazing so im finally getting to wear clothes I really want without having to layer up.

I love suits but I love creating them out of my closet and this look was by accident lol. I realize the best looks come together easily when not planned.

I wore this look back on mothers day. I love these cobalt blue jogger pants from ny and company.  They are very light weight and comfy. I paired it with a simple black shirt and motor jacket I own years ago from forever21.  The shoes were floral print flats from Jcpenny. 

The whole look was cute and casual which I love for the weekends. I hope you enjoy this look.

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Mines was very busy but I loved it. Lately I’ve been into the color blue different shades from dark to light. If anyone knows me knows purple is usually my color so to step out of the box is a plus for me lol.

Usually when it comes to outfit planning I think the night before or it usually just comes to me. I always like the denim on denim look but I like my own spin to it.

I paired my light blue skinny jeans from express and stonewash button up from the gap. Im obsessed with denim button up shirts because you can styled them in so many ways. It adds the extra pop you need in an outfit.

For work I paired it with a floral blazer and this cute denim shoes from zara. This was my perfect look for work. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  I spent mine doing some relaxation.  Every now and then a break is needed from blogging because giving you the same blah would be boring lol.

I told you before how much I live midi skirts so wouldn’t it be my luck to stumble upon a floral number from H&M. What I loved about the skirt was the design. It had a floral graphite effect which I loved. Not to take away from the skirt. I paired it with a simple white shirt and my combat boots to give it an edge. I loved everything about this skirt and would wear it again with heels or sneakers.

Hope you enjoyed this look as much as I did.

Hi Fashionistas,

I have been crazy about midi skirts and skirts in general. I love skirts cause they are easy to wear especially if you are running late and styling is endless.

Awhile back I had purchased some skirts from sheinside.com. They have some reasonable clothing thats affordable but they tend to run small so size up if you can.

I love everything about this green skirt when I saw it online as it has a metallic color to it. Now mind you im not the biggest fan of green but I loved this.

I wore this look a few weeks back prior to my hair cut.

I paired it with a graphic tee shirt from ann taylor loft and wore my lace blazer from jcpenney I purchased awhile ago. The shoes are by dollhouse which I scored for 9 dollars.

I loved the whole look as it gave me a feminine edge to it.

Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Wedensday.  Its a fab day here in NYC. I try to enjoy nice days like this especially when I have to work. Im really loving floral right now and notice my closet has been growing with a lot of floral peices. 

This look was all about two favorites lace and floral. I purchased this H&M peplum top a few years ago and its still a great piece.  I paired it with these lace pants I purchased from ann taylor loft which are amazing. The shoes are from nine west and blazer from local store rainbow. Statement necklace recent purchase from ebay. 

Perfect look for this great spring weather.  Hope you enjoyed this look as much as I did.

Hi Fashionistas,

Its been hard for me to blog like I uses to as my job has been very busy. I still take photos but its hard to post so bear with me.

I live midi skirts because they are classy and elegant where it can also provide you with many various options.
When H&M came out with their midi skirts I was obsessed with them. I love the cut and quality. These skirt I purchased last year but I know I will be in a lot of use this year.

I wore this look to support my fellow blogger friend Carriepink launch event. Which was amazing and a lot of fun.

For the event I paired my midi skirt with these amazing bcbg shoes I scored at t.j max.

For work I wore my floral print oxfords from the gap. My plaid scarf and leather jacket was the extra touch. I loved this look and it shows you can wear a lot with the midi skirt. 
How do you rock your midi skirts

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Me and the husband went to dinner and a movie with friends at one of those dine in theaters and it was great. 

I love jumpsuits especially ones that are great for work and after. I had purchased this floral print number from ny and company awhile back and wore it on one of those lovely spring days we had a few weeks ago. I paired it with a blazer and some cute flats. You can always add a heel to give it a more dresser look. Overall I love it.

Hi Fashionistas,

Hope all is well with you and that you all had a great easter weekend.  I was able to spend mine with friends and family which is always my favorite thing to do.

This sunday I decided to dress up a bit for a sunday of some good Mexican food. I always wanted a pair of boyfriend jeans but did not want to spend alot of money if I did not like how it looked.

Lucky for me Jcpenny had some on clearance for $14 which is a steal. I love everything about the look and the ripped affect of it. I paired it with a simple beige sweater and my camo jacket from last year I scored from my local rainbow. The wedges were from nine west outlet for $24 and the bag from guess clearance from macys. I love the look and cant wait to style these jeans again.
