I’m so glad I tried on this outfit because it almost didn’t happen.

You know when you think you’re going to like something and for some reason or another your excitement is gone once the item arrived.

Case in point this wrap skirt and racerback bodysuit.  I had envisioned the look in my mind but I just wasn’t excited to wear it and honestly was going to return them without even trying them on.

The winter wind was getting a little fresh in today’s featured look from Walmart.  I love finding brands that I love, know, trust and can find in the same place as my body lotion.  One shop stop for all the things including some fire Plus Size Fashion.

Did you know that Walmart carries Eloquii?!  You totally, should.

Trust.

Not only do they carry the main styles that you can find on their site (at incredible prices) but they also carry the exclusive to Walmart brand, Eloquii Elements.

What is old is new again and this definitely applies to the triumphant return of bodysuits.  I remember loving them as a kid in the 90’s and not really understanding why they went away.

All I know is that I’m just glad they’re back!

I try and scoop them up every time I find one in a different neckline, material or colors.

Bodysuits are great to use as building blocks to any outfit.

Hey friends!  How are you doing?  It’s been a minute since I’ve shared on here.

I wanted to get this post up earlier this week but technical difficulties.

c’est la vie…

I felt like creating a romantic and feminine look for no reason at all.

Some days I feel I have this quarantine thing on lock and others, well, not so much.

I miss the problems and the freedoms we use to have in a pre Covid world, but do not mistake me for thinking we should just be all lax about the seriousness of our situation and get back to life as previously scheduled.

Last month was seriously enjoyed one of my favorite travel moments.  I got to spend a few days in Venice, Italy before sailing off with Princess Cruises inaugural voyage on their newest ship Sky Princess.  More on that amazingness to come but back to me living my best life in Venezia.

It was like a trip before the trip and it just happened to be in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Nothing beats the summer heat than a darling white eyelet dress — well, maybe a ice cold cocktail but let’s stick to fashion, shall we?

If you’ve been reading this blog for any amount of time you know that I’m a devout lover of white dresses all year long but especially during the summer.

To me, a little white dress provides effortless style without having to do the most.

It’s way too hot to fuss about fashion — my summer style is chic, easy and comfortable.

So you what is like to be a fashion blogger?  I can only tell you what it’s like for me and it might be different than what you may think.

I wear many different hats: I work full time as a nurse.  I am a caretaker and participate regularly in my local congregation activities.  I hardly live a spectacular, jetsetting, perfectly styled, decorated life.  It’s imperfect, messy and crazy — but it’s mine.

I’m an old vintage soul.  As much as I love the benefits that comes along with the modern technology of the 21st century, I will never stop loving how people took their time to do something right in the past.  

Simple things like handwritten letters or the fact that men and women wore dresses, gloves and suits during the day just because!  

Give me the days of drive-in movie theater dates and when courtship meant wearing your beau’s letter-man jacket and pin.

Hi Lo Skirts.  You either love them or hate them.  I’m #TEAMHiLo and I just happen to love this one in particular.

When some people think the about the Hi Lo Trend they might cringe at the idea of wearing a fashion mullet but this skirt doesn’t give me business in the front/ party in the back vibes.

It’s dramatic, full and feminine. The detailed pleats are lovely and y’all know how I love a good pleat!

As a hopeless romantic it’s in my DNA to fall hard, fall fast and fall out out love as quickly as I change my playlist on Spotify.   I love the idea of love especially when it’s the grand, dramatized, romanticized love that great rom coms are made of– case in point Princess Bride & Pretty Woman.  Having a young and very rich Richard Gere climbing up my fire escape to only have to cover him in my kisses doesn’t sound like a bad idea — I’m just saying…
