Happy Labor Day/Monday everyone!
Over the weekend I had the pleasure of attending my friend Tawanda’s wedding. Tawanda is one of my closest and dearest friends. My heart swelled with happiness seeing her walk down the aisle. Tawanda looked so beautiful and radiant! I am so happy she found the her soul mate and wish them a lifetime of love!
Have a wonderful day!!!

Happy Wednesday everyone!
Leather has always been a Fall/Winter staple but this year it’s everywhere from panels in trench coats to skirts. Here are a few pieces that you can easily incorporate into your wardrobe. Leather jackets are great because you can wear it with pants or dresses. If leather jackets are not your speed, why not a leather skirt with a pretty blouse? Leather is a good way to add polish and edge to your outfit. Give it a try to see how you feel, you might just like how you look!
What leather styles are you willing to try?
Have a great day!
TGIF!
This weekend, I’m heading home to New York City (Bronx born and raised!) to visit family and attend the BlogHer conference (I’m so excited about going!). Whenever I go home I take the bus because a) driving to NYC is a pain in the butt b) New Yorkers drive INSANE (yep I said it!) and c) there is no parking in my sister’s neighborhood. Plus, I don’t like to drive at ALL. If I had my way people would have the ability to beam everywhere like they do on “Star Trek”!
Whenever I travel in the summer, I either wear shorts or a maxi dress for comfort. Since I’m leaving right after work, I went for the maxi dress. This Old Navy maxi dress is colorful, lightweight and very comfy. I got it a year ago for my family vacation to Las Vegas and it quickly became my favorite dress. I paired it with my multicolored beaded necklace from the Avenue and wood cuff. When I initially bought the necklace, I didnt have anything to wear with it, so it just sat in my drawer. When I got the dress, I instantly thought of this necklace and the rest was history!
What do you like to wear when you travel? Have a wonderful weekend!
Dress: Old Navy

Happy Monday all!
So its been seven months since my first post way back in January. In these seven months I’ve learned so much about myself and blogging. I find that blogging helps me to continue my journey and keeps me honest. I still struggle with my self-esteem but it’s not nearly as crippling as it used to be. Your comments and support mean the world to me. The love you have shown me is tremendous and I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart.
With that said I wanted to do a retrospect of my favorite outfits so far. These outfits highlight me becoming more open to stepping outside my comfort zone and taking a risk.
On another note, if you live in Philadelphia or in the surrounding areas, please come out and support Curvy Closet’s event on Saturday September 1st. The event looks like is going to be a lot of fun. Plus there will be an opportunity to shop til you drop so check it out!
Have a wonderful day!
Happy Hump Day all!
I know it’s only July but some retailers are starting to debut their Fall collections. It seems that rich jewel tone colors will be one of the trends for the season. As a lover of all things color, this is wonderful news to me! Here are some of the items that are on my Fall “must have” list.
What are some items the “must have” items on your list?
Have a wonderful day!
