Hello all! 

And welcome to Monday! Today I am restyling a favorite sweater of mine, the sweater with the faux fur sleeves! 

This time I opted for an all black ensemble to not take away from the sweater. It is a relatively simple look, but the all black base really takes it to the next level. 

And of course a small pop of color, and voila! Your good to go!

I mentioned in the last post about a conference I was going to over the weekend. The Masterminds of the Industry Conference. It was an afternoon full of inspiring speakers and women supporting and getting to know each other. There were four speakers total. They spoke on topics ranging from women's empowerment to spiritual awakening to relationships to fiscal responsibilities. It was great! It was really a great afternoon! I went with my good friend, Vicki (designer diva) and met several new friends. It has me very inspired for what the future holds!

Thank you so much for reading!

Hello and Happy Friday!!

I don't know about you, but I am ready for the weekend! It has just been a busy week! So for today's post I went for a more low key look. 

I have worn similar versions of this before. It really encompasses many of my favorite things; distressed denim (from K La Boutique), pattern play (leo print and stripes) and a peplum top! 

It is simple, but its great for many different purposes! Lunch dates, meetings, brunch, date night, many things! I may wear it out this weekend to a conference!  

I hope you have a great weekend! Thanks for reading, and I'll be sharing more for this conference in future posts! 

XOXO

Hello and Happy Monday!

I know Mondays are not everyone's favorite day, but I -sometimes- really find ways to appreciate them. Its a new day, a new week, a fresh start. Today was one of those Mondays. I had a day off a got a lot done! 

Today's post is simple in style, but I dressed up with peek-a-boo details and a little pop of color! 

I love this look because it is so easily dressed up or down! 

This same look with flats could be easily a day outfit, fit for running errands or meetings, or lunch dates! The possibilities are endless!

Thanks for reading!

Hello all!

So for today's post I decided to stay within the same color family. I found this skirt at K La Boutique on sale and loved it at first sight! I had a vision for it from the start and the vision worked out very well!

I wanted to keep things as close as possible to the same color family. Browns, beige, cream colors, and orange -for a fun pop of color!

The blend of colors really compliment each other. The skirt is so comfy! I cannot wait to find more ways to style it! 

Also thank you to my stylish mother! She let me borrow these booties for this shoot! And I think they really suit this look perfectly! :)

Thanks for reading!

Hello all!

I hope you had a great weekend! I did! I went on a mini shopping spree -which I will share with you later- and I got to relax. The temps dropped though! Which changed my blogging plans but for the better, I think. 

Today I get to share two beautiful pieces that were actually Christmas gifts. The first is the scarf. I can't tell you how much I love this scarf! It was one of those gifts I wasn't expecting but love! The pictures don't do it justice. In addition to be beautiful and bold, it is also soft and -in person- it shimmers! :D

The other piece in this ensemble that I adore is the moto jacket, which my sister got for me! I had one before that I LOVED and sadly it began to show it. I searched for a long time for the perfect jacket and I didn't find it. But this one.. this one is great! It is stylish and unique!

Together these pieces really pack a punch! 

In honor of Martin Luther King day I want to leave you with a quote that meant a lot to me; "Faith is taking the first step, without seeing the whole staircase." This quote is meaningful in so many different aspects of life. When it comes to relationships or blogging or different ventures in life. It is an important thing to keep in mind.

Thank you so much for reading!

Hello and Happy Monday!

Today has been the first time in almost a week that I haven't gone outside and felt sure that I might become a cube of ice within a few mins. 

Don't get me wrong, it is still cold but it feels more bearable. 

Today on the blog I am sharing with you a great winter piece I found on Shein.com. The sweater with extravagant faux fur sleeves. I LOVE it! Of course because the fur is the focal point of the whole look, I wanted to keep things relatively simple; darker hues, simple prints, and of course a small dash of color. 

What do you think?! 

Thanks for reading!

XOXO

Happy Friday!!

How has the first week of the new year been to you!? For me it was a pretty good week. I felt like I stuck to my resolutions pretty closely. I worked out even when I didn't want to, I rested when I needed to, I have been more honest with my feelings -don't get me wrong I still have a ways to go when it comes to improving myself. But I'm proud of the efforts I have made this week. 

With every new year comes resolutions! The chance to start all over and recreate yourself. That is the exciting part of the new year and I'm no different. I have decided that this year, instead of just setting the same old resolutions, I am also going to come up with plans. For example, I love my blog and sharing with you guys. But there are plenty of days that I have brain fog or I feel uninspired, even just tired. In the past I have worked an 8 hour shift and then come home and tried to take pictures and create a whole post in two or three hours. I'm tired and don't have the patience for anything that could possibly go wrong. Being fatigued, my posts have been short and vague... that is not the kind of blog I want. I want people to read it, enjoy it, and maybe even get something out of it. 

So, this year, I decided to create a plan for my blog. I decided that when I do have free time I will aim to take advantage of it. If it means getting shots of several different looks or writing up a post or editing pictures, that is what I am going to do. I may not be perfect at it all the time but it gives me something to strive towards. 

Which brings me to this post, sort of! I mentioned last time that I took several pictures with different looks before the holidays because I knew it might be harder to get pictures in then. That is what brought that idea about. This is the last of those pictures. 

This is a fun look that is relatively simple in style and easy to pull off. Every piece of this look are favorites of mine. The sweater and the skirt compliment each other well, while the pops of red in the mules and the clutch really pop. 

Thank you so much for reading and stay warm!!
