How to Style // Dress to Mini Skirt


Daunting when your looking at your wardrobe and you scream out "I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!!!" I think sometimes we can be a bit over dramatic don't you think. I know I am! Instead of screaming or turning our closet inside out let's stop for a second and think. What can we do to make something out of nothing.

In an age where being original is no longer original it's important to just keep it simple. Going back to basic tricks that never go out of style. Grab your favorite dress or even your not so favorite dress and throw a top over it!! Then presto, you have a look. Here I took my cap sleeve textured dress from old navy and threw my Angola sweater from H&M on top. It turns dress into a cute mini skirt, perfect look for a midday luncheon with the girls. This trick can work in various ways including wearing a skirt over the bottom of the dress. I love doing this with circle skirts because they are easy and the combinations are endless.

Trust God's timing. It's better to wait awhile and have things fall into place than to rush and have things fall apart.

Holiday Style // Love Red

Classic red is just a style tradition. You can't go without wearing red during the holiday season. It's about as normal as drinking water.  What I love is the variations of red. This coat was one I got last year from my church. It was around the time I really wasn't working and couldn't afford to get a warm coat.

Stripes & Culottes

NYFW this year was such a blessing. Way more than I could have dreamed. However, between the move of the shows from Lincoln Center to actually buildings it made it difficult to commute back and forth. I didn't know whether I was coming or going this week. It was a bit difficult to keep up with my looks as well due to my work schedule. However, I was able to capture this one which was my favorite look from the whole week. And guess what Jesus styled me!!!!

Accesory of the Week // Alex & Ani

Running home after school with report card in one hand and a joy in your heart. You get home to show your parents how much you achieved.  They take pride and joy in their  baby girl so the next day they take you out shopping. They find a trinket that's more that an enough to show how proud they are. A simple charm of achievement, that showcase how proud they are and motivates you to forever achieve the best and accomplish every goal you ever put forward. This is just a speck of what some little girls dream of.
