It has been a while my loves since I posted on my blog. I am working on changing that! Just celebrated my b-day and I figured what better time to kick start my blogging journey again. I had an amazing weekend that included balloons, hugs, kisses, gifts, dinners, desserts and lots of fun and beautiful surprises! I share one with you today. My awesome hubby said, “Get dolled up for your b-day photo shoot” so I did! I asked him where he was taking me and he said, “It’s a surprise you will Love💜” and boy did I love it! He took me to the Heritage Square Museum where I got to see beautiful Victorian Homes and heard about the amazing stories of those that lived in those homes that dated from the Civil War to the early 20th Century.

I decided that lavender was going to be my go to color for my shoot and it definitely did not disappoint. The color felt fresh & feminine .Perfect for Spring! The faux fur was a Christmas gift I was wanting to use but waiting for the perfect occasion like this. My pencil dress was amazing with it’s own story of sail boats surrounded by the ocean. My periwinkle heel sandals and sunnies were the perfect final touch that completed my birthday mood.

Well my loves, that’s all for now. I share a few pics below of my amazing day at Heritage Square and see you soon😚

LOOKING THROUGH SHAPES AND SHADES

Hi my friends, it has been a while since I’ve posted on my blog..to be exact 20+ days! I have been so busy with work, family and life that I could not find the time to sit in front of my computer and write…  I want to dive now into my subject for this new post and that is the many varieties of sunglasses that exists . There is a shape for everyone. Let’s explore the history of the sunnies we use to look stylish and protect our eyes.  I for one never really questioned where they came from. All I cared about was that I Loved them!

If we go way back in time, sunglasses can be first traced to have been worn by Roman Emperor Nero who used polished light green emerald gems to see the gladiators compete. Somewhere between 1268 -1289 sunglasses were invented. A fact I find very interesting is that around the 12th century, sunglasses were used primarily by judges in the Courts of China who wished to hide their eyes as to not give their decisions away. From this point on the sunglasses continued to develop and in 1929, Sam Foster started selling sunglasses to wear as protection from the sun hence making them stylish to wear.

Now moving on to the  present time…There are so many styles to choose from that it can be overwhelming! You want to try them all! You can pick from Retro Square, Aviator (one of my faves), Round, Cat Eye to name a few. Just choose based on your facial shape and go from there!

Below I share a few pics  of myself and my family & friends wearing sunnies..

The Denim Blues

Are you on board with the denim on denim look that has graced the fashion runways? For many years I personally thought this was considered an “erreur de la mode” as the French would say or what we call a fashion No-No but for some unexplained reason, I have come around and really like this look now! The only explanation I have to my change of heart is that our likes and dislikes change every seven years! I am truly grateful to Mr. Jacob Davis who invented the “Jeans” in 1871 and Mr. Levi Strauss who joined him to patent the “blue jeans” in 1873.  Moving to the 20th century, in the 1950’s  jeans were originally designed to cater to miners and cowboys…Look how far we’ve come from its origin!

I decided to try this trend today and I must say I received many compliments which included one from my hubby! His compliments always bring a smile to my face!   He actually suggested we go to Travel Town in Griffith Park to take a few shots for my blog, so we hopped on his chopper and off we went! He knows that I love fashion blogging and encourages me.  I share a few of the pics he took below:

Fashion Tip: Mix & Match Denim;There is no rule that states you need to stay within the same color scheme! Go for a different look by adding a blazer or a pair of pumps. Add your favorite pieces to make it your own!

The Look Of 50

Four days I go I joined the 50’s Club and I feel Fabulous! I use to wonder how I would react to reaching the half century mark and I must say that I do not feel any different then I did 5 days ago when I was still 49.  It feels great to be alive surrounded by my awesome family & friends. I have been truly blessed. I feel accomplished in life and I am living my forever after that I had dreamed of as a little girl. I am happily married to this guy I still call my boyfriend, I have two wonderful kids that make me proud every day and I have a house I call HOME and is MY Castle.  I am in complete agreement with the saying, “50 is the new 40”. I see it as just another number but in complete greatfullnes to God for allowing me to see another year!

Now moving on to how I celebrated this mild stone.  I was actually given options by my hubby to either throw a party to top all parties or plan a small getaway with my famyof4 and anyone else who would like to join us.  I debated back and forth as to what I should do and I ultimately went with what my heart dictated and opted for the latter. We went for the weekend to San Francisco and I made sure we were prepared fashion wise with our wardrobe and we all went for chic casual for the day and evening attire at night. The weather was a little chilly.

My honey took over and planned it all, from the beautiful hotel we stayed at (by the Marina) to the restaurants we had our meals at, sight-seeing and last but not least a Carte Blanche to go SHOPPING!!! We had an amazing time and I would not have changed a thing!

My beautiful daughter took pictures of everything! She made sure I was the center of attention! I was made to feel so loved and special! I definitely was the Royal Queen!  I share with you a few pics from our trip.

Fahion Tip: Have fun at any age! Remember age is but a number and it’s all a frame of mind! Love yourself and explore new fashion looks you thought you couldn’t possibly do! Wear a new lip color and try a new shade on your hair. Do what brings a smile to your heart! As always, make it your own!

Wishing you all the best,

My Love Affair with shoes started when I put on my first pair of heels at the age of 14 and I have not looked back since! I credit my mom once again for teaching me to walk in heels and for having a passion for fashion. As we transition from what I call “hibernation” where all you wore were boots to protect your toesies from the elements of Mother Nature and into the Spring Season, I can not wait to try many of the new trends for 2015.  My favorite right now is the Pointed Pump! I’ve been buying them in all colors! So in Love with this style! I think my next purchase will be the lace up heel. I will share that with you next time! Here are a few pics of me wearing a few of my new finds…..

Plaids Are Not Just For Picnics

Are you Mad for Plaid?  Is it a Yay or Nay for you?  Truth be told, as far as memory takes me, I always associated plaid’s with a picnic blanket. Now, with this being one of the trends for this coming Spring Season, it brought a little bit of aprehension as I contemplated whether I should or should not wear this particular trend.  As I shared with you in my previous post, Spring Forward, plaids was one of the patterns I was willing to try and guess what? I did! I ventured outside the box! I started with a subtle plaid pattern to as they say, “wet my feet” and I hope to eventually move up to trying the larger plaid pattern, Gingham. I decided to pair my plaid trench coat with a solid bordeaux colored pencil dress and blush colored patent leather t-strap pump. I added a chuncky necklace that matched the soft pink of my coat. I sealed the look with my pink lipstick and sunnies.

Here are a few more examples of Plaids I found on the net I hope will encourage you to go for the Plaid!

Fashion Tip: If you think as I did about plaids, I encourage you to give them a chance! There are so many types of plaids. Start by trying a smaller print and go from there.  I promise you will not regret it!

Wishing you all the best,
