You know that weird feeling you get—when you just know–that you’re trying too hard. Approaching style blogging can be nerve-wrecking especially when all you know is your own individual style. You can be whoever you want to be but you have to be authentic. So so much easier said than done. A few things about me and hopefully you all can relate.
I hate matching.
I love torn or frayed jeans at any time of the year.
I love heels, even during a fete.
I like my outfits to tell a story.
& I can’t bring myself to wearing what everyone else is wearing.
I wanted to wear something floral, sophisticated and girly this summer, because I felt that was what’s ‘trending’. But the greatest thing about clothes and individual style is that you can literally do whatever you want. There are no rules and no consequences. So my flower idealistic post evolved into a Flower bomb, an explosive, rebellious, sweet and sassy, psychedelic version of me. I paired it with my 70’s shades (channeling my Grammy –she was definitely a diva) and my ‘oh so sweet’ Zara bucket tote. I’ve been trying to track the information for these Kors by Michael Kors Animal Hannon Snake Platform Sandals but with no avail. I actually got these via a Burlington Coat Factory in Orlando for a steal under 100.00 (retail they’re $300-400).
In essence, authenticity and expressing your true self is more rewarding than doing what you think everyone is thinking or doing. Thanking God for these small but significant lessons.

August 3, 2015Yes I do there’s a part in the blog post that reads where I got the top and bag …if there isn’t a link then that means they’ve sold out but I try to look for alternatives. Check out the post again… And just click on the hyperlink ‘HERE’ to find the product or the alternative. Will try to stay consistent with that; thanks for the feedback!
