Workin' the Pleated Maxi!

Hey ladies and gents!

I hope you all are doing well.  I know I have mentioned this before but I love being able to come home and take pics in the daylight!!  Totally fabulous!  Let's talk about what I wore to work today.

My pleated maxi skirt!  Pleats are trending and a couple of weeks ago I told you all that I had a coupon that I had to use at Ashley Stewart before it expired.  While I was there I bumped into this skirt on the sale rack and couldn't pass it up.  As far as how to style it, I had something else in mind when I picked up but this is how I wore it today.  The real reason why I wore it today was because it was the first chill we had in a while and I put away all my winter clothes.  I knew spring was gonna play peek-a-boo.  I wore this skirt so that I could hide the footless leggings I wore to keep my gams warm.  You gotta do what you gotta do...even though I could have worn slacks but I was looking for an excuse to wear the darn skirt...sue me!






Skirt and top: Ashley Stewart  Blazer: Thrifted   Belt: Target  Pumps: Simply Vera by Vera Wang

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.
Tangerine, Lemon and Blueberry...a fruit salad and my fave...houndstooth!

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