Dazzling Dayse

Lovely Wednesday! Who's ready for this week to be over?! Me! I think I'm borderline sick today. However, we can't mentally/physically be done with this week just yet. I've got another post for you! ;) If you haven't noticed by now...I LOVE COLOR. <3 When I'm working with a loud print like the skirt below, I like to pick 1-2 colors to STAND OUT. While I love being a vast array of colors, I love to tame it, but I like to be unique. Funny Story: someone once told me busy prints make a female look bigger. I'm sorry, but I will slay a print. I'm not sure if she was trying to tell me something, but I'm going to act like her comment never happened. LOL. jk. People, don't be scared of print, no matter what anyone thinks.  My recommendation would be to pick one of the many colors when working with a loud small print and run with it & for my curvy ladies...STAND TALL and proud! Most of all, work it!  Skirt: Discovery Cloth...

HI LOVES,  I hope each of you are enjoying your Memorial Day. I'd like to take a moment to remember and thank all of our brave soldiers, who have sacrificed their lives for our country.  We live in a country, where we are free to express who we are. In my case, I like to express myself through beauty, fashion, writing, art, etc. I'd like to think of this outfit as very patriotic (minus the hot pink, but what a great color to add to our flag, right? LOL, jk).  I did not plan this outfit on purpose. I did this photo shoot about a month ago, and I finally got around to making all of my edits (come one, we all do it. LOL). My sister and I decided to do this photoshoot in downtown Ocala, which has very interesting spots. I had a lot of fun climbing building stairwells in heels. HAHAHA. I tend of laugh/smile a lot when I'm super nervous or scared. So, you can call this my scared smile. LOL. We had a couple of life-threatening moments on this particular building...

Hello Loves,  I hope you all are holding up this Friday. As most of you know, South Carolina hasn't had the greatest news...but LOVE & PRAYER will surpass it all. Please pray for Charleston.  On a less heavier note, I wanted to share with you an outfit that I love wearing over the summer (give or take the long sleeve). Summer is full of bold colors and many maxi dresses.  I love colors, so this dress caught my eye and I fell in love with it! If you know me...you know once I fall in love, it's all or nothing! lol.  This outfit is actually a halter maxi dress (chiffon material) and I layered it with a long sleeve light grey cardigan. Since it was an outfit for church, you know I can't have my arms all OUT! LOL. At any rate, I paired it with classic black pumps and a black bag. I also curled my hair, but they kind of turned into very loose waves by the time the photo-shoot started to happen.   I know sometimes pe...

Hello wonderful readers!  Great post from the other "D"! ;) I definitely need to get my workout on as well! Lol. If you're like me, you've come to a point in your life where you love the idea of a workout...but just the idea. Lol just kidding, it's always good to be healthy. I always say, you can never help others if you can't help yourself. We should all strive to be healthy! I also own puma sneakers and I wouldn't trade them for the world! ;)  At any rate, I wanted to share a store that I have learned to love from Puerto Rico. It's called Traffic and I believe they have stores in the US as well. Puerto Rico was my first encounter with this store. My first year I bought coral sneakers that flipped out at the top and are super comfy! Well, this year I went back by and fell in love with these sandals.  If you know me well, you know that I love heels, but I'm a sucker for cute sandals. I am from the south so sandals are something we use ...
