Happy Sunday everyone.  Ever feel like there isn’t enough hours in the day?  I wish we had an extra day to just chill…  Time is moving, we’re moving deeper into the Fall season and I’m loving every minute of it!

Today’s outfit was a crowd pleaser, I got so many complements on this dress.  Funny, I was just saying last week that I didn’t wear very many maxi dresses and ended up wearing another one this week 🙂 .  The butterfly motif makes for a very exotic  look.  The abundance of fabric flows like a butterfly too.   Even though I love all the deep beautiful colors, I wasn’t happy with the overall look of the dress.  I changed the look by doing two little things.  For starters, I pushed the long elastic sleeves midway up my arms, doing this made a “bell-like” sleeve. I also added a wide belt to the elastic waistband.  These two simple changes created a totally different look.  It was that easy 😉 !

The neckline has a very deep “V” where I chose to wear a jeweled collar necklace.  It also has a front center split which mimics the V-neckline.  I decided on a neutral shoe, (pointy toe pumps) so they wouldn’t get lost in all the color.  The wide neutral belt served the same purpose, breaking up the color pallet. Plus, look at my waist… it’s cinched BABY! Colorful earrings and bangles rounded out the accessories.

Style Tip:  Don’t be afraid to use neutrals, they can enhance a bold color pallet. 

My BAG today was a neutral tote, I felt like I needed something substantial next to all that colorful goodness 🙂 .

There is BEAUTI  in everything, find it…
