Something Old, Something New

Strong and Springy

Happy Spring guys!!!  The temps are warming up, but I am still playing it safe in opaque tights especially since we have been getting so much rain lately.  I absolutely hate getting rain water on my bare legs.

In this post, I wore a "muscle" shirt that was gifted to me by my older cousin.  The shirt was actually given to me a few years ago, and I hadn't gotten around to wearing it until just now.  I paired the form fitting shirt with a pink leather skirt I purchased at Zara, and added some opaque burgundy tights to complete the look.

Something New - Zara Print Dress

Happy Sunday lovelies!!!  in this post, I am wearing a dress from one of my favorite stores ZARA.  I'm sure you guys know by now that I love prints, so I was naturally drawn to this dress.  The shape and fit is very flattering on me, plus it's super comfy and easy to wear.  Another thing I love about this dress is that it transitions through the seasons.  During the winter I can simply add fun colored tights and chunky scarves, and when spring and summer rolls around I can opt for sandals and bright accessories.

In this post I am also wearing a trial pair of glasses from Warby Parker.  I am participating in the At-Home try on because I am desperately seeking cool, new frames.  The name of this particular frame is Ripley (please leave a comment below rating these frames...I would love the feedback).  In my upcoming post I will be sporting the other frames.  It was very important for me to see all of them styled with my wardrobe.  Functionality is most important when it come to something like glasses especially because I tend to wear my glasses just about daily.

Twinning Pieces - Wearing Prints in the Fall

When it comes to wearing funky prints, I would like to believe I have mastered the art.   I enjoy dressing lively, and making bold statements every chance I get.  So naturally my eyes are drawn to prints when I shop.  On my recent trip, visiting my BFF in NYC, I was on a mission to find the exact outfit I am wearing in this post.

I scored this twin set at Zara very reasonably priced.  This outfit also has the versatility that I look for in clothing. I can wear it throughout the year, dressed both up and down.

Due to the dropping temps as of late, I layered my twin set with a cardigan and wore a pair of brogues.  I figured tights and Chelseas or block heel booties would also be a great looking, comfy alternative.
