I'm in LOVE with...KIMONOS!

Hello my loves,

At this point...life just seems to keep happening. HEHEHE. On top of moving, I've been trying to housetrain/welcome two new Great Pyrenees puppies into our home! Talk about NO SLEEP or TIME! lol. 


It's ok. Milo and Chloe are just too cute that it's all worth it. I can't wait until they are gorgeous and fully grown! Anyways, onto what's more important that cute puppies...FASHION! lol.

Ok, so I have a new obsession with KIMONOS. No not the Japanese raincoats...hahahaha. They are kind of like a shawl (according to one of my guy friends) but better. I had seen several fashion bloggers mention them before, but I wasn't into the look...UNTIL...Florida happened. LOL.

I was shopping in Florida, and I tried some on. I fell in love instantly!!! It was the perfect look and solution to 1% of my problems as a modest dresser.

So ladies, you know how you pick out a skirt (that perfect pencil/bodycon skirt) & you just can't bring yourself to wear it to church or anywhere because it may have people talking about you? ***Even though you know they are supposed to be looking at God, not you. But hey...you can't help your awesome. HAHAHA. You know that skirt that is just a bit snug in the rear-end area? Yeah. That skirt.

Well, fear no more! Kimonos will save you the extra drama. LOL. Yes, they give you that extra coverage for your favorite skirt.

 I'm a huge believer in "wear what you want if you can make it work."   Did I add that they will be perfect as it starts to cool down? Who's in?










 So here are a few sites that have kimonos:

Thanksgiving: CHECK ...now, Christmas!

Hello my dear readers, I'm so sorry I've been so ghost on all of you! Huge thanks to D2 for keeping you guys updated. :D I have been crazy trying to travel for Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping for a family that my job adopted, and trying to continue planning my upcoming trip to NY...last but not least work. :/ hehehe. At any rate, I know everyone is getting ready to spend quality time with their families over the holidays as well as giving wonderful gifts from the heart. I'm more of a giver than a receiver. I love to think my heart was constructed under the blue print of the heart of Jesus...always giving out of love. I am not saying Christmas should be about gifts, but it's always nice when I can make someone else smile. Definitely take this time to appreciate your loved ones and spend the time that you've missed with them throughout the year. ...AND if you have some EXTRA time on your hands, feel free to reach out to those in real need. We are too blessed ...

What Time is It???

Helloooo my wonderful readers! Hope you are all doing well this wonderful day that the Lord has made :) I have something new to share with you! I hope you're as excited as me :D "Cause it's time for Watches!!! Whoop Whoop! Raise your hand if you like watches! I do and it's such a shame I only have one :(  I think writing about them will make me feel much better...bahaha! Looking thru the Shoedazzle website, I found that there were nice watches on the website.  Shoedazzle watches  is the link if you would like to look at them AND they aren't too expensive. However, if the link doesn't work please sign up. It is free and you only pay when buying :) (U know what?- all these stores/websites need to pay us for advertising!...I'm gonna look into that :D)!  I don't know what your style is but I really like the watches below and I would love to have all the colors there are because then I could always match...YEAH! muhahaha!  Hope you liked this po...

Bow Ties vs Ties

Hello to all of my amazing gentlemen!! As promised, I am making this post for you guys. ;) Based on our feedback, the topic for today was requested by our male readers! Thank you guys for being so faithful to our blog and showing your interest for more fashion tips.  Someone mentioned that I tend to use pictures of "model" males and females, and it felt unrealistic. So...I had a few guys who were willing to be our "real" life models. They come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and ethnic backgrounds. ;) Special shout out to each of them.  Ok... BOW TIES VS. TIES . What's the difference??????? When should you wear one???? How do you wear either one of them???? No worries gentlemen! We're here to help. ;)  Beside the obvious reason of difference in style, the Bow Tie has a long reputation of being classy, authoritative, and extremely formal. They have also been very popular for the southern preppy style. For example, bow ties are highly reco...
