Sunday Look: Coat Dress

Happy Sunday… I missed you guys last week. I had my (red) outfit all ready. I had the worst allergy attack. How can this be the last Sunday of 2018? What a year, huh!… So grateful I’m still here to see it to the end. How many of you make New Years Resolutions? I don’t, I try to make goals and hope to see them through.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas, ours was blessed. It was a great day for family. Now it’s time to take down all the beautiful decorations.

Even though Christmas was in the seventies, today we were in the thirties and that made me so happy. It was the perfect day for actual winter clothing.

Today’s outfit was a Green Paisley Jacquard Bell Sleeve coat dress with double breasted bodice. This coat wears beautifully buttoned up. I wore a short black sleeveless dress underneath (just in case) 😉 . This coat is not new at all. I’ve had it several years and I never remember to wear it. So happy I remembered it today! 🙂 .

Style Tip: If you are wearing a coat as a dress make sure whatever you wear underneath does not hang longer than the coat itself.

Since it was a cool day and “coat weather” I added black gloves (my mother’s gloves, which made them special) and stockings. I also accessorized with a black beaded necklace and black earrings. I chose a pointy toe black pump to finish off the look.

My BAG today was a quilted faux patent leather satchel featuring a flat top handle. Such a cute little bag that happens to be very roomy inside. Perfect bag to play dress-up.

I wish each of you a safe and Happy New Year. Lastly, what are you wearing New Year’s Eve?

There is BEAUTI in everything, find it…

Sunday Look: Holiday Crush

Happy Sunday everyone! It’s really beginning to look a lot like Christmas, LOL… So much is happening. Everything is so beautiful. We had the honor of watching our granddaughter sing in the Holiday concert at her school. Such beautiful voices, we enjoyed every minute. Another treat was the 7 Sayings of Christmas our church does each year.

Well, you know me and the Holidays, RED, RED, RED. I’m so obsessed with this color and it certainly does scream HOLIDAY TIME… FOR ME.

Believe it or not, this outfit wasn’t planned. I had planned on wearing the top with a black skirt. At the very last minute I changed. “Crush Velvet” sounds like an old-fashioned term doesn’t it? I haven’t heard that term in forever, nor have I worn it. I’ve had this red cold shoulder velvet top for a while. I wore it Valentine’s Day. It’s a top for dual holidays 😉 . There are so many ways to style this top. I paired it with a few different options this morning. Pink slacks, two different hues and black skirts. (Are you surprised about the pink option?) I totally forgot about these black crush velvet joggers, the tapered at the ankle makes them dressier than elastic. I added a black ribbon tied in a perfect bow.

When you reach the bottom of this post and see where I purchased both of these you will be surprised. This just goes to show “you make the clothes, the clothes don’t make you”. Everything doesn’t have to be expensive and name brand for you to look good. I love my ~~cheap~~ inexpensive outfit! I felt like a million bucks 🙂 .

There was no better way to accessorize this outfit than with BLING. You can’t ask for a better backdrop. Let’s not forget the pointy toe shoes!

My handbag has festive details with pearls and red stones. I call this one my “Holiday Bag”!

Sunday Look: Holiday Tulle

Happy Sunday! What have you all been up to so far this Holiday Season? I’m enjoying all the glitz and glamour. Even though I enjoy it all, I’m still very aware of the “Reason for the Season”. I’ve finished all my inside decorations and things are looking oh so beautiful and festive.

In keeping with my Holiday tradition of wearing RED, I managed to keep it festive again. I think I’ve mentioned this before, I love to shop in the kids department sometimes, they have some really cute clothing that’s appropriate for adults 🙂 . My skirt was a kids department find. I love tulle… This skirt is frilly & festive with a hint of glitter, making it the perfect piece for Christmas that’s both fashionable and comfortable. I paired it with a RED sheeny knit top featuring a round neckline, long shirred balloon sleeves with banded cuffs. The fit is so smooth and sleek, it made tucking easy.

I accessorized with a pair of very festive open teardrop floral earrings with the look of sequins. Instead of wearing a necklace, I opted for a Christmas scarf, tied in a festive bow. I chose a satin high heel shoe with a square rhinestone buckle on the toe.

My handbag today had to be red as well. Not only was it red, but red sequins. There was no better pairing for tulle and satin than a sequins handbag.
