When it comes to fashion, I express myself through my outfits. It’s a combination of my personality and my mood for the day. Each part of a look represents an expression of my style and my personal emotion. For example, I woke up a few Sundays ago and knew this is the day I had to look good, I don’t know why, but I felt like I had to spend extra time with my skincare routine and my makeup. I also knew I would be wearing my favorite boots that day.
While i was getting ready my lovely :) husband looked at me and said I looked beautiful. I smiled at him and said challenge accepted. I have always had a thing about mixing men’s wear into my style. I went into his closet which I don’t normally do. I styled an outfit with his clothes and my favorite boots (i will be sharing this in a future post).
I like to encourage the freedom of expression through style
because you are not just wearing clothes.
You are wearing how you feel and your personality.
Whether it’s appreciated or not,
you are still expressing yourself and your confidence.

Today’s outfit is styled with a few trendy pieces. I am currently obsessed with slingback shoes, which I keep adding them to my shoe collections. I am wearing snake print trousers from Zara, a bucket bag from forever21 and since It’s a bit chilly here in Texas, I decided to pair the pants with a lace detailed black sweater from H&M. 
Styling this outfit I felt fierce, and strong because that day I had accomplished a lot. I woke up with a long to-do list for the day. Which started with cleaning, laundry, cooking breakfast, the list goes on. Beyond my expectations, I was able to finish my to-do list with check marks :). I had lots of time to spare so I put this look together.
The snake prints trousers represent my fierceness for the day which inspires me to be fearless. The black sweater with the lace detail and the sling back shoes made me feel soft and delicate, contrasting the boldness from the snake print trousers. 
I totally agree that style is an expression of ones self and your look great while embracing yours! Also I am in LOVE with those pants!! 😍
ReplyDeleteThank you Danielle i agree with you.
DeleteI totally agree about style being an expression of one's self. When I was young and vibrant my outfit usually reflected that. Now that I am a mom my frumpy clothes show how much a slump I am in. I needed this boost. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHey jay joy. I am glad this post was able to give you a boost. Remember when you look good, you feel good.
DeleteGorgeous outfit! I am positively crazy about your pants! Very stylish add and a comfy look

DeleteI love your photos so much, they're really great. This outfit is everything and I LOVE the style of your blog.
ReplyDeletethank you shea!
DeleteI truly love that black sweater--I know I would feel very confident where ever I was wearing it. I tend to prefer clothes that are stylish but also ageless. Everyone has their own style and other then once in a while breaking the mold-should have fun and like what they are wearing.
ReplyDeleteThank you Miki! I totally agree with you. Its always a good to try new things, and I would also add having having statement pieces in your closet is essential.
DeleteYou look absolutely amazing! Huge fan of the black sweater.
ReplyDeletethank you Maartje!! :)

ReplyDeletethank you! Danielle
DeleteWe do have different style but ours is what we think the best one. Great outfit! I love it!
ReplyDeletethank you Elizabeth! i do agree we all have different styles.
DeleteYou have taken trendy pieces and gave then an almost classic twist. Love the shoes.
ReplyDeletethank you!
DeleteGreat outfit and I love the quote at the end! I agree that what we wear does reflect how we feel inside and by extension, how we go about our day. I used to be in denial about this and think that it was acceptable just to wear a ratty old t-shirt (or stay in my PJs all day) if working from home, but even something as small as putting on a stylish pair of leggings will influence how much I accomplish that day.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you kate. I used to think the same way and I could tell the difference in my mood when i just slapped on anything. I noticed that when I pay attention to every single detail while getting ready for the day. it does make a huge difference.
Delete"Be who God called you to be..." I LOVE that!!!! I am also loving this look but especially those pants! Love love love!

DeleteYou wear that outfit so well - I love those leggings! It is nice to express ourselves through clothing. I have to say my style has pretty much gone out the window since having kids, now it is more about being comfortable.
