Hi loves! Thank you so much for all of your sweet words of support on my last post!! Today's look is super simple to pull off and also another great fall transitional look. I styled a white and navy striped shirt dress with one of my favorite vintage scarves looped around my neck and instantly had a nautical sailor inspired look. I threw on some leopard loafers and a navy bag and was good to go!

FALLing in Love...

Hi Loves! How were your weekends? Mine was spent lazying around, washing and re-twisting my hair, studying, and hanging with my sis and then my fiancee! Yesterday was the first day of Fall and I'm excited about the weather, holidays, my birthday and of course Fall Fashion!! 

Today, however,  is a super special day for me in that I start my new job as a head-start teacher AND on this day last year, my honey proposed to me in the most beautifully romantic and special way. If you are a new reader and want to read about it, the entire story is here. I can't believe a year has flown by and that in just a few short months, I will be his WIFE!!! I thank God for allowing him to find me and I truly love him more than any words can say. Enjoy the pics!

How To: Transition Your Wardrobe From Summer To Fall!

Hi Loves! As the last days of Summer swiftly pass and approaches Fall, you can still find me rocking my summer dresses. How, you ask? Because if the temperature drops (as we know it will), I can easily layer one of my denim jackets over my dress, slip out of my sandals into some cute booties, throw on a soft scarf and my new 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target bag and still be comfy and chic! How are you transitioning your wardrobe to be ready for Fall ladies?

Happy Thursday!

Diced Pineapples..

Hi Loves! Did any of you score any of the 3.1 Phillip Lim for Target pieces? I decided to purchase my dream bag from the line on the Target website super early Sunday morning and by 4am (don't tell my fiance or anyone lol) after several hiccups and broken links, victoriously snagged it! *fistpump* All of the bags from the line are currently sold out in stores and online so staying up late to order it, was totally worth it! It should arrive today and I can't wait to style it this Fall! 

When the owner and creator April of Forever Natural Tees reached out to me to collaborate and review one of her shirts, I was so flattered! As a fellow "Curly Girl", I absolutely support the message she is spreading to empower women in the natural hair community to love themselves. My hair is currently in a protective style of marley twists, but I am a Girl With Curls That Rocks! This shirt is so cute and is a wonderful statement maker for any outfit that can be dressed up or down. Snag your own here!

WHAT I WORE:

[ :: Old Navy Utility Vest :: H&M Divided Conscious Trend H&M Pineapple Print Fitted Pencil Skirt :: Girls With Curls Rock Shirt c/o Forever Natural Tees :: Vintage Dooney & Bourke Cross-body Purse :: Converse Sneakers :: Vintage Yellow Necklace :: ]

Simply Chartreuse

 When Shy Boutique sent me this beautiful piece last week, I swooned! The Catey necklace is absolutely gorgeous and is the perfect balance of bling and gold. Y'all know I love a good statement necklace that can take the simplest look to another level and that's just what this piece did for my chartreuse dress! Go visit her site and snag some fabulous affordable pieces for yourself!

Technicolor Blazer + GroopDealz Giveaway!

 [ :: New Vintage Ellen Figg Technicolor Blazer :: H&M Cami :: Gap Curvy Jeans :: Yellow Urban Outfitters Loafers :: Necklace c/o Crown + Glitter :: ]

Hey y'all today I'm styling this (new to me) Vintage blazer that I found a few weeks ago while out thrifting. On this particular day, I hit the jackpot in amazing pieces for fall and I can't wait to debut them on the blog soon. Anywho, I styled it as the focal point of my look and kept it simple with dark skinny jeans, a white cami, yellow loafers and chunky jewelry. Thinking about doing another Fall Style Lookbook, like I did here last year, would you like me to put another one together this year? Let me know!
