Happy Sunday! I seem to be really into gingham 🙂 . I’ve worn it a few times in the past weeks. I’m very casual today, I have a good reason, today was our Church picnic. What does one wear to a church picnic when you’re aiming for casual, comfortable and cool because it’s 100 degrees outside? And be presentable for Church at the same time.
I specifically planned this outfit for today. I thought it was the perfect picnic attire. I chose an orange and white gingham smocked off-the -shoulder top with a long bell sleeve. The back is accented with a bow. I paired it with a khaki ankle pant. Pretty simple yet still cute right? I accessorized with brown wedges and chose to wear wooden jewelry pieces and a wide gold bangle.
My BAG today was a bamboo circle body, beaded shoulder strap with a flat top closure. These bamboo bags are trending big time right now. That brings me to my next bag, Gaia’s Bamboo Big Natural. I’ve wanted this bag for quite sometime now. It’s perfect for a picnic, pool parties or the beach. It’s to die for… 😉 . Best of all it’s collapsible, making storage easy.

Happy Sunday and Memorial Day Weekend! It’s a hot one I know that… how are we suppose to keep cool? It’s almost too hot to put on clothes 🙂 🙂
Today’s outfit was an attempt to be as cool as possible. Nothing cooler than a thin white T-shirt. I paired that with a fuchsia (its not red) gingham ruffled skirt. Yes I’m in gingham again! Didn’t plan it that way 😉 . The skirt pairs very well with the T-shirt and makes for a very casual cool Sunday look.
Something this casual doesn’t need very many accessories. I added a wide white belt, shades of pink bauble earrings and a trio of necklaces (16″, 18″ & 20″ trending). Of course I’m never complete without my high heels. Today I opted for white peep toed platforms.
My BAG today keeping with the casual look, a pink crossbody. I simply knotted the strap to shorten and carried it at the knot. Simple!

Enjoy the Memorial Day Holiday and remember their sacrifice.

Happy Sunday! Rain, rain and more rain is how our Sunday started. I’m very particular about what I wear when it’s raining. I tend to dress a little more casual and carefully choose a shoe that doesn’t get ruined by the rain.
That’s today’s outfit, a casual gingham dress in black and white . It disguises itself to look like a skirt with the side tie. By the way gingham is trending.
I really wanted this look to pop and come off as being edgy. I think I accomplished that by leaving the top three buttons open and adding a chunky necklace in the space. I turned the cuffs up to revile the striped lining for a contrasting look. The icing on the cake, white ankle boots. Not only are they stylish but they were the perfect footwear for a rainy day like today. I’m loving how my legs look in these boots, this calls for a 😉 😉 LOL! Had I not left the buttons open and kept the sleeves un-cuffed, it would have resulted in a very different look. Don’t let these white boots scare you either. They were trending BIG TIME this past winter. Not many would dare to wear white boots in the dead of winter season. BUT, Fashion is passion and I’m passionate about my FASHION… anyway, a boot like this is ok to wear during the Spring and Summer months, it’s all up to you. “If you like it, wear it” that’s my motto. And I like it!
My BAG today was a white tote with ring handles and studs. It sealed that edgy look I was going for 🙂 .
