Sunday Look: A Texas Fall & Florals

Blogs, , , , , ,
Happy Sunday everyone…. Its been a couple of weeks since I’ve had a chance to post.   I’m back even though I’m very late.  I’ve been very busy these last couple of week.  I managed to sneak in a little bit of travel.  A girls trip to Las Vegas 😉 .   It’s amazing how fast times is passing us by.  It will be November in a few days.  I don’t want to think about it.   I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t comment on the crazy Fall weather we’ve been having.  I was SOOOOO excited when we had our little cool snap a couple of weeks ago.   Today, not so much, but it’s all good.
That leads me to today’s outfit.  I was really struggling this morning, I had my mind set on cooler weather.  Lucky for me I have some hidden gems in the back of my closet.  I purchased this floral jewel tone dress with three-quarter length bell sleeves last year during a Macy’s end of year sale.  The colors are just beautiful, wouldn’t you agree?   I almost forgot about it until this morning.

I knew I wanted to wear a shade of pink today no matter what.  I like to show support for Breast Cancer Awareness month.  The colors in my dress allowed me to do just that through earrings.  The pink balls with added bling set the tone for my other jewelry accessories.  The collar necklace was made for this dress and I didn’t even know it.. LOL!  It was perfect.  I finished my jewelry choices with silver bangles.  But…. wait a minute.  I don’t know how I did it, but I chose the perfect shoe.  A turquoise suede pointy toe high heel.  I was like, WOW! this really looks good with all the beautiful colors.   I’m amazed how things always manage to come together.   I was thrilled with this outcome 🙂  🙂 .

My BAG today, a faux leather shoulder bag with a large faux reptile print.

Sunday Look: Military Blue

Blogs, , , , , , ,
Greeting to another Sunday.  As the season changes (especially in Texas) how does one dress for a cool start and somewhat of a warm finish.  Layers. Dressing in layers can help with the quickly changing temperatures.

 

Today’s outfit is a take on the layered effect.  The “military” inspired design with a feminine turn in a long tailored jacket, adorned with polished goldtone buttons.  Under the jacket is a sleeveless shell.  This allows me to remove my jacket if needed.  I paired the two with a crop straight legged pant.  All in the color “BLUE“.   I love this look, it’s very comfortable and stylish at the same time.  You may be thinking why all blue?  First of all, I love the functionality (military look) of it all.   If I were to remove the jacket I would still have a cohesive look.

My jewelry accessories played off the shape and goldtone buttons.  I purposely wore gold earrings, necklace and bracelet.  It really set off the look.   I kept with the blue in my shoes as well.   The patent leather blue gave that shine you see on military personnel for a totally finished look.

     

 

My BAG, a square, blue leather handbag trimmed in gold.  The square shape of the handbag made the entire outfit look official 😉 .

Fashion should be FUN. Have fun in your look , OWN IT !

Sunday Look: Roses are Blue…Baby Doll Dress

Blogs, , , , , , , ,
Happy Sunday!  What a difference it makes when you can get a full day of rest.  Yesterday I did absolutely nothing (except decorate my dining room table for Thanksgiving). Other than that we had a free weekend, the grand girls were sports free.  I should be well rested.  Late last night I decided to try on outfits for today.  Well, this morning I changed my mind 🙂 .  Luckily for me all I did was grab and go!  Which leads me to today’s outfit.

 

Roses are Blue is what I’m calling this dress.  I have to admit I fell in Love with this dress right away.  Wait until you see where I purchased it from down below.  All I have to say is “you make the clothes, the clothes don’t make you”.
The look of vintage in the mesh (I told you its trending)™. This mesh dress makes for a sultry look, while the embroidered flowers add sweet, feminine detail. The thin, mesh material and delicate flowers come together for a one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted look.  This dress turned heads LOL… It would be perfect for your next dinner party or night out.

I kept the accessories really simple. Notice, no necklace, really didn’t need one at all. Just the right amount of skin peeks through the mesh.  Black earrings, sparkly bracelet and ring did the rest.  The dress can easily stand for itself.  I chose an ombre patent leather shoe in blue and black.  I heard someone say the other day that ombre is out ( I think they were talking about hair though).  Anyway, I beg to differ.  I like it and I wore it 😉 .

My BAG today was fairly simple.  I chose a long blue clutch that felt so right for this outfit.  I did try three others but this one was perfect.

Like I said before, you make the clothes the clothes don’t make you!  I wear what I like and you should too!  Don’t get me wrong, I love a designer piece. But everything doesn’t have to be $$$ for you to look good or feel good.

Happy first Sunday of December. The Holiday Season is here…  What a great sermon today at church.  We had a praise and worship good time…  It looks like the cooler cold weather has left us for now.  Last week was sweater weather and today not so much 🙁 .  I chose this navy sheath dress with cutouts exposing the lining underneath.  Don’t you just love my      “Cinderella Shoes” ?  I’ve had my eyes on them for a while.  Its always good to wait for a sale 🙂 .  Hey, I even wore pantyhose today and I despise pantyhose LOL.  Wearing them added a more polished look.  Might as well go for it all.  I chose a gold colored pearl and earrings.  Pulled it all together with my bow detailed bag.

Sunday Social: Pencil Skirt & Dots

Processed with Moldiv

Happy Sunday! Today was an awesome day at church we had an old fashion revival .

Today I thought I would do a play on colors. “No Rules” I wore this black and white polka dot top from Dillards (Gianni Bini) and yellow pencil skirt.  I’ve had the top since last summer.  I was hoping to find a yellow skirt to wear with it.  I looked for months but couldn’t find the right one.   I wondered upon this one while cruising the mall at New York & Company.  Just so happen they were having a 50% off sale, lucky me.

The blue shoes, the blue shoes LOL… they are Kenneth Cole Reaction, they were purchased with this look in mind.  My yellow clutch topped it all off.   You can shop this entire look here and here.   My BEAUTI today the BLUE SHOES…
