As much as I love tossing prints (see recent examples HERE & HERE) along with being drenched in bold tantalizing hues, I also thoroughly appreciate neutral color palettes. My personal style is a mixture, or maybe I should say a combination of a number of style genres. To be 100% transparent, I dress according to my mood, which fluctuates. LOL! I would be bored to no end if I could only delve into one style genre. VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE!!! I don't like to always look the exact same way style wise 😊

Today's look features a bodysuit that I scored last winter, along with newly acquired distressed denim jeans. Instead of adding in a pop of color (a familiar routine), I added in pops of black by way of a tweed pom hat, leather purse, and velvet shoes. This gave the look textural interest, which is yet another form of variety. This look was perfect for a chill evening, out and about shooting the breeze.

Until next time,

Xx

I was thinking one day while strolling through my office in a tulle lined dress, I clearly do NOT believe in saving things for limited enjoyment on special occasions. What do I mean? Well, to put it simply: I USE my good stuff right NOW ⇒ NOT LATER 🎈🎉 LOL!
When I was growing up, older family members and friends always held certain items of clothing/furnishings/etc in high esteem. Don't get me wrong- that is totally awesome if that's your thing. However, doing so often means that "special" items can't be touched and or utilized regularly, if ever - throughout one's lifetime!
When I set up shop in our very first house, I felt the same way... for a time. That is: I had special items, marked/categorized as "Do Not Touch". However, it didn't take me long to realize that living by that philosophy just wasn't for me. I wanted to enjoy the good things that I had in the present, not at a future point in time. 
In line with my aforementioned preference(s), I wear my best clothes NOW- not solely on/for special occasions. 
Let me put it this way: I aim to eat off the good china every single week- not only at special dinner parties ✌
Over to you, do you designate certain clothing as "special", and reserve its wear only on/for special occasions?
Until next time,
XO
