Jacquard | Style Your Best Beauti

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.
