Hey there fashion peeps!
I had a pretty decent and eventful weekend. Alright let me tell you...I have a pretty hip momma and it was her birthday weekend. How she decided to celebrate her birthday was to get a party bus. That's right, ma dukes said let's party on a bus. So this is exactly what we did. The itineray was to party on the bus and make a few pit stops. Because we are in the DMV (DC, MD, & VA area) during the winter it is COLD!!! I mean, the hawk was out Saturday night. I knew it was going to be cold so I had to come up with a fit that was fashionable, festive yet functional. Functional being, keeping my buns from freezing off. You would think being a native NY'er having to walk to school in a foot of snow uphill both ways, I could handle it...NOT! Here is what I came up with.
I also used this fit to participate in Bloggers Rock the Colors of Christmas link party |
&
for the For Style Sake's Santa Baby Contest.
I just took off the denim trousers and put on a skirt and a different pair of shoes.
If you have a minute I would appreciate if you could stop by and vote :-)

One other pic, I wanted to share...me at the MLK memorial. This was one of the party bus pit stops. This is an AWESOME memorial!! I wish it wasn't so cold so that we could enjoy it more.
Thanks for reading.
Stay fly and stay tuned!
