Hello Beautiful people,

It's the weekend. Here is the last of my hoarded shoot from April.

Off-Shoulder Midi Dress

Hello beautiful people,

Here is another shoot from March featuring the tried and true off-shoulder trend.

Grey Days

Hello Beautiful People,

I hope your November is going great. Weather wise, the last couple months was rather strange since   we experienced higher than average temperatures for this time of the year. The time has finally arrived, and winter will be here.

Mismatch Theory feat. Vlisco Wax Hollandais

Hello beautiful people,

I wore this ouftit to a Nigerian party in St. Paul at the beginning of the month.  The hollandais wax fabric was purchased from Vlisco earlier this spring then I had a local tailor make it into a peplum blouse and pencil skirt for me.

Summer to Fall

Howdy Beautiful people,

How goes it? Fall has officially arrived but it doesn't mean you have to pack summer clothing away for the winter just yet.

Red Haute

Hello lovely readers,

I missed you all.  I just couldn't stay away, so I've decided to post later than normal. I was so lazy about posting today but I've decided to grace you with this monochromatic look in the color red.

Ivory and Burgundy

Hello beautiful people,

How are you doing? Say it ain't so but, the weather has started to get fall like. I'm really hoping that we get a few more weeks of warm weather.

Muscle Tee

Hello my beautiful people,

I hope you all had a great weeked. Did you get to see the controversial movie, Straight Outta Compton. I still haven't gotten the chance to see it yet. But, with all the hoopla surrounding

How's your weekend going lovely readers,

I usually don't blog on weekends but since its particularly hot today,  I decided to post a casual outfit that is perfect for a hot summer day.

Patterned Pants

Hello beautiful people,

How goes your summer? I tell you mine just seems to be zipping by, so much to do and so little time.

Currently Coveting: self-potrait dress

I was browsing for frocks on ASOS, when a guipere lace midi dress from british brand, self-potrait, caught my attention. I decided to take a look the selection that ASOS had to offer and it wasn't disappointing.

Khaki Jumpsuit

The All-purpose dress

Happy Monday Friends,

I hope you enjoyed your weekend. I was at Florida for a mini-vacay and it was such an awesome time. I was supposed to post this right before I left but I ran out of time.

Stripes and Florals

Happy Monday beautiful people,

I hope you enjoyed your weekend. This past weekend went by so fast. It was quite action packed.  I went to a graduation reception and throughly enjoyed time spent with family.

70s Flare-evolution

Good Morning Ladies and Gents,

How goes your week? The past couple of days has been quite chilly here in the Twin Cities and it's going to be a sweater and jacket situation until the weekend.  It gets to be a tricky time of the year for transitioning from winter to spring/summer wardrobe due to the flucatations in the weather.

Festival Ready

Happy Friday Ladies and Gents,

I have been MIA for some months but guess what I'm back and ready to wow, impress and inspire you.

Fashion in Film: A Most Violent Year

As an ardent fan of the gangster genre, I was excited to see A Most Violent Year, directed and written

by J.C. Chandor. The film is set in New York City in 1981. It is about an immigrant business owner, Abel(Oscar Isaac) who is dealing with several crisis as he races to make the biggest deal of his career.  It follows Abel navigate the gray areas as he builds his empire and reputation on what he thinks are fair and honest priniciples in an industry where most of his competitors are either crooked or mobsters.

Working Girl

Hello my beautiful people,

How are your holiday preparations coming along?  I apologize for my disappearance. All due to a good reason though, the cold suddenly creeped up without notice. Since I missed you so much, I decided to brave the cold for photos.

After the Sunset

Howdy my beautiful people,

How is your day going?  As you can see, I'm still mad for plaid.
