CASUAL GLAM

Hi Everyone!!

I wore this look over the weekend. I call it my 'casualglam' look, because it combined style and comfort. I wore a light denim shirt over leggings and paired this with blue-framed sunglasses, booties, and a taupe handbag.

Hope you were inspired in some way. :) 

Bible verse of the moment: Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9

Fashion Show: 2nd Annual B.E. Fashion Extravaganza: Fall fashion Frenzy for a Cure

Hi Everyone,

I attended a fashion show in Tampa the other night for a good cause. The fashion show featured local and international designers. The runway exhibited everything from casual wear to jewelry. The event ran for a lively two 4 hours from 7:00pm - 11:00pm. Attendees were served hors d'oeuvres and the VIP guests were served a full dinner. The hosts were jovial and entertaining and the music and poetry was icing on the cake. I had a great time. The lighting wasn't conducive to taking quality photos, but I was able to capture a few of my favorite looks. Here are a few photos from the event. 

I opted for this thrifted over-sized blazer atop a flare leather detailed skirt.
Some simple black pumps, a dark lip and a glitter clutch complete the look.

For more details about the designers from the evening, this company and the fashion show, visit their Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/events/625233664228753/

XOXO,

FALL FASHION: 1 SWEATER 3 WAYS

Hi Loves,

I'm back with another Fall fashion video and blog post! I purchased this over-sized sweater from the Men's section at H&M several weeks ago.

I initially intended on wearing it to an event, but I changed my mind at the last minute; leaving this piece to sit in my closet. Over the weekend,  I pulled it back out and decided to put my creative cap on! What resulted were these three simple Fall-nspired looks. (Keep reading for a special guest feature).

I love doing these types of blog posts, because they reflect what I do with my wardrobe in real life. Rotating pieces to match the occasion is something I practice regularly.
