Sunday Look: Pastel Pants

Blogs, , ,

Hello, I’m back.  Last week we had a family emergency and spent our Sunday at the hospital with my husband’s mother.  Thankfully she is on the mend.
It’s been a crazy busy week and I needed total comfort in today’s outfit.  Since Spring has sprung I thought I would start out wearing pastels.  I did so in these relaxed floral pants dancing in pastel petals.  I added a light colored pastel blue peplum top.  The top is adorned with a full back zipper.

I accessorized with an ombre blue and black pointy pump and a necklace in the same colors.
My BAG: This is one of the bags I told you about a while back. I mentioned that I was lucky enough to have it in four different colors.  It’s a quilted shoulder bag with partial chain link strap.  I shorten the strap to carry as a handbag instead.

Sunday Look: Maxi Dress and Cape Jacket

Blogs, , , ,

Happy Sunday! Well it looks like Mother Nature threw us a curve ball and gave us some cooler weather.  That gave me an opportunity to wear something I may have not worn had it been warmer.

Today’s outfit is a Maxi Dress and Cape Jacket.  The dress has a faux leather top with an attached sheer skirt and built-in underskirt.  It’s also sleeveless, that’s why I added the cape jacket. Guess what? the cape jacket has “POCKETS”!  I could have worn a blazer or cardigan as well.

Like last week, my necklace is the real showstopper to the entire outfit.  I had a blank canvas in the faux leather top.  Just about any necklace would have worked.  But this particular one not only sparkled, but it filled in the space nicely.  Next, I added a wide belt, it was a nice contrast between the faux leather top and sheer skirt.   Additional accessories included two silver bangles, ring, watch and earrings with a little bling as well.  Since it was a little cooler I slipped on fishnet hose and patent leather platform (pointy toe) heels.

My Bag:  I had to keep the bling going…  I did that with a semi round clutch with tons of bling!  Who doesn’t like a little bling or in my case lots of bling?

Thanks Mother Nature for the cooler weather!

Sunday Look: Ankle Pant & Blazer

Blogs, , , , ,

Happy Sunday!  It’s hard to believe we’re in the month of March already.  We didn’t have much of a Winter now its almost Spring.  It’s still Winter and I’m going to dress like it until March 20th (first day of Spring) 🙂  Today’s outfit, signature ankle pant, velvet bodysuit and blazer is as close as I get to Winter clothing.  First of all I think the ankle pant is sexy! Add a bodysuit to that and you’ve got a style party.  Not just any bodysuit but one with a sheer V- neckline and back. The blazer took the outfit to a whole other level.  It all came together quite nicely.

But!!! the real show stopper today is my “necklace”.  I was so excited when I found it and equally excited to finally wear it!.  It was the perfect compliment to the sheer V-neck of the bodysuit.   I also added a two identical bold bracelets (one on each arm) for a more stylish look.  Pointed toe leather and suede heels topped it all off.

My Bag:  In keeping with the velvet trend, I carried this black with gold trim flap bag.  Its a shoulder bag with a velvet and chain strap.  I also have this bag in Bordeaux or burgundy.

Here’s is a tip: Whenever I don’t want to wear the strap long on the shoulder, I shorten the strap on my bags by tying the chain with a ribbon inside.  Talk about versatility… 😉
