 What better way to welcome Fall than by wearing Fall colors . Orange was all the rave this past summer , it's one of those colors that can be worn year round . By pairing it with grey, black, or  brown it plays perfectly into your fall wardrobe .

Happy Sunday!!!

 

After a month away from blogging I'm happy to say that I'm back and here to stay . As a personal style blogger I think it's important to take a break from time to time . During my break I cleaned out my closet got rid of alot of things that were just collecting dust. My newly revamped closet looks alot like todays look , simple pieces that can be layerd or look just as fab alone . I challenge my readers to do the same . What?? are you holding on to that you need to get rid of !??  clothes, shoes, relationships , grudges etc . . let it all go so you can get back to you.

Happy Sunday!!!!!

 

Saturday June 21st marked the first official day of summer for 2014... Being a Floridian that does not mean a thing lol as though it's summer year round for us . Nevertheless I thought I would celebrate like the rest of the world by rocking an all white look for brunch today with the girls . I kept it simple and chic by adding neutrals and a pop of red on the lips and nails .

 

Prayer of the Day

 

Father, thank You for placing dreams and desires in my heart. I trust that You are at work to bring them to pass even when I can't see it, even when it's taking longer than I thought. I know that You are faithful, and I trust You completely in Jesus name. Amen...

Happy Mother's Day!!!!!!

 

Quote of the day

 

A Mother is :

Someone who cares..when others care less.

Someone who encourages... when others ridicule.

Someone who defends.. when others condemn.

Someone with patience... when others are impatient.

Someone who appreciates..when others fail to notice.

Someone who gives security..in a world of insecurity.

Someone who is accepting...when others reject.

 

A mother is a friend for all time , to cherish and protect , as her achievements will linger for generations..

Todays look was inspired by the May issue of Essence Magazine ... Pastels are a must have for spring/summer 2014. From oversized blazers and sexy pencil skirts to tailored blouses and chic cropped jackets , pastel clothes will be fashionable , not infantile.

Father thank you for peace . Thank you for leading me forth in joy and victory. I choose to listen to you. I choose to tune in to you . I choose to trust you knowing that you have a good plan for every area of my life in Jesus ' name . Amen.
