70's Style

                                          Flared Jeans , Belted Cardigan, Frames - Forever 21

                                                                         

                                                           
The 70's are back in a big way . The outfits our moms wore yesterday are making a comeback for Fall.... Flares, maxis, detailing, (fringe, embroidery), and fabrics (denim, suede). and with the movement here to stay it's in your best interest to invest in fashion's groovy past.

Thank You for all the love

Show Me My Way Again....

lace kimono- Forever 21, midi dress - H&M , mule wedges -Target.com
chocker -Forever 21

Pardon my absence ... I took the entire summer off from blogging.

I must say over the years I've lost my passion for it . The blog world can be so stressful at times trying to stand out from the rest or at times asking myself should I just blend in . As you all know my faith in God is strong and that will never change . I began to ask God in prayer for guidance to show me my way again , I asked that he help me broaden my perspective so I can experience the full life he has for me. If you too have lost your vision or your passion for something I ask that You give it to God in prayer and he'll show You the way again .

Thank You all for the support and love over the years .

Quote of the Day
The older You get the more people disappear and that's how it works . One day You are missing the company of someone and then the next day you'll remember a little  less that they're gone. You adapt to the change and it doesn't make You a bad person to move on, that's life and that's just how people are.

The Tuxedo Dress for Curves

    Dress -Nadia Plus Collection /Boohoo.com, Heels -Jcpenny, Frames-Marc Anthony 
                                                                 

Happy Sunday!!!
I'm so happy about today's post ... As a woman with curves I can't tell you how excited I was when Nadia Aboulhosn dropped her collection . Finally a designer who gets us . Being a blogger there's always a new trend. Last year sometime the tuxedo dress was a must have and all the top bloggers were rocking em. Well almost all of them .... Not one curvy girl rocked it . Until now !!!!! Well it's obvious Nadia felt the same when she sat down with her design team . So the wait is over curvy girls we now have  "TheTuxedo Dress for Curves".

Prayer of the Day 
Father, give me the wisdom and discernment to hear Your still, small voice through the loudness of this world. Today I come to You. and I choose to be still and quiet and just listen. Thank you for speaking to me as I wait patiently on you in Jesus name. Amen.

The New Neutral


dress (Cynthia Rowley/ Consignment) heels (Lola Shoetique) bag (Thrifted)
necklace (F21)
 
Happy Sunday....
 
Everyone has that one color  they fall in love with each spring /summer . For me it's Coral "The New Neutral" I like to call it lol. Throw it on with a head to toe  denim look , that navy dress that's been hanging in your closet too long or opt for a blush tone similar to what I'm rocking. You'll definitely stand out in the crowd .
