Good Morning Beauties and Gent,

This is my first fall post. Fall is finally here. The leaves are changing colors and the days are getting chilly. All signs that winter is fast approaching.

Polka Peplum Dress

Happy Friday Beauties and Gents,

I warned you that I have a thing for polka dots. I was quite excited when I found this dress. A few years back, I was devastated when a polka dot dress that I owned no longer fit.  Little did I know that I would run into this one.

Hello Beauties and Gents,

I hope you all had a great day. I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad, but today was the last day of summer. Fall actually begins tomorrow.  Double denim is a great transitional piece for the fall. For extra warmth put a faux fur vest or an oversized coat over it.

I ablsolutely love this H&M denim shirt that I purchased three summers ago. it's in frequent rotation in my closet since I wear it all the time. I wore it here & here. You can dress a denin shirt up or down. I'm yet to see double denim done bad. It never gets old. This time around I decided to pair it with my flowered denim skirt and pearl chocker. What do you think of this combo


Peace & Love,

Ifeoma

Hello Beauties and Gents,

How was your weekend? Mine was action packed. I ended up babysitting my niece and nephew on Friday night. Saturday, I briefly helped my sister with decorating and then later on I met up with a friend for dinner.  Sunday was just me time.
