Sunday Look: The Pineapple Dress

Happy Sunday!  Hope everyone had a great week and survived the heat.  We had a birthday in the family last week and we have another one this week.  I love birthdays!  I’m still on my quest, trying to keeping cool and remain fashion forward at the same time. How am I doing?
Today’s outfit is a whimsical pineapple print dress with a pleated A-line skirt. Oh my, it has pockets! 🙂 .  I really love this dress.  I wore it for the first time May of last year to a Mother’s Day Brunch.  I’ve wanted it in my Sunday rotation for sometime now.  This dress has the most flattering fit and it would be perfect for any size woman.

I accessorized with a statement necklace made of wood, gold rings and white beads.  I also chose wooden earrings, white bracelet and a white flower ring.  Nude pointy toe pumps sealed the look.

My BAG today, a folding bamboo handbag (it collapses and folds flat). It’s quite the conversation piece.  It certainly added the unexpected to the entire outfit.  As you already know, I love handbags that are unique 😉 .

There is BEAUTI  in everything, find it…
Style Tip: Remove the straps and necklace (straps are removal) .  Add a belt for a more fitted look. Replace the pumps with sandals, off you go for a totally different look.

Sunday Look: Full Skirt & Bell Sleeve Blouse

It’s Oscar Sunday!  The Diva in me wanted to wear a long gown to church today, LOL…  Just kidding! Not really.  Can you tell I’m looking forward to the Red Carpet Fashions.   Today I fashioned a recycled skirt from two years ago.  The A-Line Full Skirt will never go out of fashion. There are many different ways to wear this skirt.  Best of all it has pockets!  Last time I wore this skirt I styled it with a black long sleeve cotton tee with pearls and ankle boots.  I switched it up this go around.  I paired it with an off-white blouse featuring the trending bell sleeve, V-neck, button loop detail and a tie.

Accessories really weren’t necessary, my blouse is so detailed as I mentioned with the button loops and tie.  The long bell sleeves served as my accessory.

My BAG: Listen, I fell in love with this style bag when I first saw it in white.  I was so drawn to it that I wanted every color  in stock.  I now have four different colors.  Oops! I think I just told on myself.  My husband reads my Blog and this will probably raise his eyebrows 😉 .  I’m pretty sure I’m not alone, how many of you have purchased the same item in different colors?

Style Tip:  Don’t be afraid to recycle the same item of clothing.  You can re-style one piece many different ways!

I can’t wait to hear these words tonight on the Red Carpet “Who are you wearing”

HAPPY SUNDAY… Well, am I bright or what? You know I Love COLOR. I’ve been looking in my closet week after week at this skirt and top. I loved it on the hanger but wasn’t sure about it being on me LOL.

Its bright I know, but I do LOVE it… There is something to be said for a Crop Top and A-line Skirt, they go well together. Its very flirty  🙂 The raised flower petal detail is so strong I didn’t need to add many accessories. I kept the necklace simple and opted for a toned down shoe color.

Lets talk about my bag. I was so excited to carry it today and it was PERFECT with my outfit. It’s not vintage but instead a vintage replica, I will cherish it for years to come.

Style Tip: Don’t be afraid of color. Take your time in choosing the right color, mix and match contrasting colors they really make a statement.

Happy Sunday everyone. What a beautiful day this turned out to be. We had great praise and worship this morning.

It’s SPRING, so let the bright colors begin. Today turquoise is the main attraction. I decided to pull out the brightest color in my top to showcase my entire outfit. The skirt is by the same designer as the top, sold as separates. I could have chosen just about any color skirt to pair with my top. I think the red helps to break up the turquoise in my jewelry, shoes and bag. I think it all paired wonderfully. This outfit would be just as cute if the two were reversed.  Get ready for floral prints this spring 😉

Remember, there are no rules when it comes to fashion. If you like it, wear it… Enjoy your week!
