Hi Fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday. I had a busy weekend full of some fun and also organizing. Hubby and I went to ikea for the first time over the weekend and i can see why everyone loves the place. We are updating our home before baby gets here. Were working on living room first.

I decided i dont want to drive you all crazy with pregnancy post every second but i wanted to share how i have been surviving my pregnancy so far. I am currently 27 weeks in my third trimester like where is the time.

My second trimester was the best thats your best time and moments, energy is up and all.

For most part ive been good. Now lets talk about clothing.

Now we all know maternity clothing can be expensive especially if your not going to use it again.

Now i will say i have purchase some items that have been working good for me and didn’t cost too much.

Maternity leggings

Now not all are the best and some are pricy but i was able to get me a few from kohls and target and they were inexpensive but comfortable. I also purchased leggings from plus size department and that worked well for me too.

Clothes

Currently i sized up in my clothing. I never enjoyed wearing tights clothing all the time so most of myclothing before pregnancy was oversized or loose fit.

Dresses are great to wear as they are comfortable and easy to throw on as well.

Shopping your Closet

Most of my items such as cardigans and dresses have been saving me especially since im working full time.

What are some your favorite non maternity clothing. Love to hear your thoughts.

Hi fashionistas,

Happy Tuesday hope everyone had a great weekend and start to the work week. I spent the weekend just doing some self care such as getting my nails and feet done as well as going to the movies. 

I saw the movie the shack and it was so amazing a powerful message so i suggest everyone go and see it.

Now if you dont know now you do. I love all things thrifted and vintage. Everything in this look was thrifted down to the boots. 

I love thrifting as there is nothing better than have a one of a kind unique and different item. 

This coat i loved it when i saw at the salvation army and my sweater is from divaexpress and leather skirt from instagram friend. The boots are from poshmark the detailing of the boot is amazing.

This look is perfect for work and a date night.  Hope you enjoy the look until next time.

Hi fashionistas, 

Hope everyone had a blessed and productive week. It has been a short one as i was off on friday before new years eve which is what i was happy i did as i got to spend so much needed time with my sister friends who i love adore and are family to me. 

2016 has been a year for me . I have to say there has been some highs with getting to work with brands, covering new york fashion week, and just expanding the blog where more people know who i am. As well as landing a new job.That was such a blessing.

With highs there are lows and the death of my grandfather was very hard and still hard for me to process as i love him and still do . I know he is so proud of me and watching over me everyday. 

I learned so much this year in which i can see it has helped me to put what matters first in perspective. 

So as 2017 approaches im looking forward to expanding my brand and blog more and just being successful.  

What are some goals and accomplishments you have . I would love to hear?

Taking a break is always good

Hi fashionistas , 

I know its been awhile with me posting and i know i will post a pic here and there on Instagram but never fully go through with blogging.

So much has happen in this short month and im still trying to process it all. Earlier this month i lost my grandfather and it was very hard for me to cope with as he actually raised me and i saw him more like a father to me. 

So losing him was hard and still it but im thankful for the memories and knowing he is in a better place away from pain and suffering. 

Moving on or going through my regular day has been rough but im so thankful for friends and family who check in on me everyday just to see how im doing.

I will not lie i was going to give up blogging but then i remember i need to keep going and keeping doing what i love which is sharing my fashion style. 

This look was one i wore before winter came in with the cold. everything is mostly thrifted except the vest and bag. The nine west camo boots i purchased from poshmark and the open cardigan from local thrift store. This whole look was perfect .  

I hope you enjoy the look. until next time .

Hi fashionistas,

Happy Wednesday i hope everyone is having a blessed and productive work week.

I wanted to share you this lovely african inspired printed skirt that i recently wore on date night with the hubs.

I love african print but i  wanted to find the perfect skirt that i could tranisition in the fall.

This skirt is super long but by wearing heels it worked perfect which you could not see.

I paired it with a simple shirt and jean jacket. In the fall i would wear a sweater or boots with a leather jacket.

Hope you enjoy the look until next time.

Gotta have Faith

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, 

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 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.
