Vintage Floral Dress + Pink Blazer

By now most of us, at least us southerners, are starting to feel this Fall weather sliding in on us.  And although I'm super excited about wearing some of the fall pieces I've acquired over the summer; I'm still trying to hold on to as much of the summer as possible.  One way I'm bringing summer fashion into fall is by adding a blazer to this tubed summer dress (later I'll show you another way I tricked out this vintage dress).  Layering is key! A blazer or a button-down or even a sweater can all be pieces to transition your summer dresses into the fall.  What other way would you have styled this dress?

Random question: If you had to use a fake name, what it be? Mine would be Rebecca 🤷🏽‍♀️ don't ask me why that name
I never thought that I would find a man to open all my doors In the instant he touched me, I knew what I'd been waiting for It's like his hands and my body have been friends before Every other man next to him is so mundane In a world of cocaine, he's like fine champagne And he's all so odd and so unique Everything about this man is made especially for me He's got that magic The way he touches me is so spiritual He's so everything He's a miracle - India Arie

Yesterday I was asked... How do I make mixing prints look so fierce? My answer... start with different prints that share the same color or shade.  When you keep the colors in the same family, this helps to make sure that the prints aren't competing against each other.  So even if the prints are different the colors with bring the look together. Now go forth and be fierce 😘 #styletips
Gather around boys and girls, it's story time 👐🏽 ○●○● I bought (or rather the Mr bought) these shoes about 3 ish years ago. Honestly I forgot I had them, but "found them" about a month ago while cleaning out my closet 😀 ●○●○ As I prepared this look for the shoot, I actually had another shoe option selected, but remembered this heeled metallic shoe 😎 ○●○● Right after I shot this look, I get in the car and to my dismay, the heel brakes 😭😫😖😱😡 !!! Now I don't know if I should get the heel fixed or throw the shoes away 🤨🤔🤨🤔 What would you do? Keep it or throw them away? || 📸 @kaynjames
Last year I vowed to not shop or not shop as much. This year I wanted to focus more on shopping my own closet. ●○●○ I spiced up this winter look with a semi-monochrome pink blazer and sweater look. Although I've worn these three pieces before, I tried something a little different. I wore my blazer over my shoulders and instead of closed toe shoes, I went with a pair of sandals. Both style options were something I wasn't a fan of, but I tried it and now I can go back to wearing my blazers "the right way" and keeping my toes warm until the temperature stays above 60°. ○●○● What's your opinion on wearing bold colors in the winter months? || 📸 @kaynjames
