Tangerine, Lemon and Blueberry!

Hey everybody!

Before I go any further let me say a special hello to all my new peeps! 

I am humbled to have you follow me.  Hugz and blog love to you all! 

Today we celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  I hope you all found some time to reflect on what his efforts mean to your present day life.  I believe that because we've come along way from when Dr. King first set out to get some things changed, we tend to easily forget.  Yes, we've come a long way but we still have a some ways to go. 

Happy Birthday Dr. King! Continue to Rest in Peace!

Next, I would like to say that I have been featured at Black Fashion Bloggers.  This is my first feature!  Yayyy! I want to thank Nika over there for doing the feature and I would be honored if you all would go over there and check it out! 

Now...onto my outfit that I wore to church yesterday.

The other thing I love about this outfit is that it is mostly thrifted!

A Bus Partying Santa Baby!

I wanted to participate in Bloggers Do It Better Sequin Edition and haven't had a chance to take any pictures wearing more sequin, so I submitted this previous post!  Sparkle Sparkle everyone!






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 :-)

 What's up with the look on my face...smh



The Fit

Black Blazer: K&G

Denim Trousers: Thrifted

Here is the Birthday Diva Ms. D aka Ma D aka D Ma (what my boys call her)...isn't she fabulous?!? 

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!
