Catching Up

Hi everyone! I noticed my last blog post was May 8 (*covers face*). I swear I didn't fall off the face of the earth. The last three weeks have been a whirlwind of nonstop celebrations and fun. I celebrated a friends moms birthday by attending my first drag show, and boy what a show it was lol. I attended a couple graduations (congrats to my SPSU boos: Marshayla and Estee, as well as my bro - in - law Derrius from Morehouse College). This past week I unplugged from the world and went on a 5 - day cruise to the Bahamas with my husband, brother in laws, mother in law, and my hubby's aunt. I tried new foods, ate well, danced the night away, went horseback riding (via land and sea), explored the islands of Half Moon Cay and Nassau, met new people, and got some WELL NEEDED rest and relaxation. Overall I've been living and loving life with family and friends. I'm ready to get back into my routine of blogging, summer school, healthy living (eating right and working out) as well as enjoying my summer! Here is a photo recap of the last few weeks.

What have you been doing these last few weeks? I would love to reconnect with you my awesome readers in the comment section below. Do you have any upcoming summer plans? If so, let me know. I'd love to hear from you.

Happy Hump Day,

Celebrate Good Times

Tis the season for graduations, parties, vacays, weddings, baby showers and the introduction of summer (well not just yet…but very soon). For this blog post I pulled out my celebratory top, because nothing says "celebrate good times" like a sequin top. Who says sequin is only reserved for New Years Eve? I say shine bright like a diamond anytime, anyplace! The denim shorts add a casual element to this "dressy" top, while the glitter platforms are the perfect compliment to this disco ball top. And my ear cuffs aid in edging up the entire look.

Outfit Details: Sequin Top (H&M), Denim Shorts (Forever 21), Sunnies (Forever 21), Ear Cuff (H&M), Platforms (Belk)

I have a couple packed weekends coming up and you can be sure this shirt will be accompanying me to at least one of the celebrations. What is your go to celebration outfit? Let me know below?

Have an awesome weekend,

A Day At The Pier

Being that it is spring it makes me want to break out my neon, floral print, sunnies, and soak up the sun. Over the weekend I was able to attend a surprise party on the air force base where my husband works. While driving to the party I noticed a old wooden pier overlooking the lake and I knew I had to do my next photo shoot there for the blog. I took my floral mini, neon cut out blouse, neon sandals, and added a flower for dramatics, and wallah….my outfit was born. This look makes me want to smile. See more of my day at the pier below.

Outfit Details: Floral Skirt (Express), Neon Top (Akira), Sandals (Target), Sunnies (Thrifted)

As I stated before this outfit, the colors, the silhouette etc. just makes me excited! The calming water at the pier and the sun shining also helped my mood as well. Where do you go to lift your spirits? What do you wear? Let me know in the comments below :)

Happy Hump Day,

Blush, Black, & Mint

It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you, without a dope post to scroll through! Hey Fashion Sensers. Oh how I've missed you :) I've been super caught up with school (I just finished up my last week of school), planned and threw a surprise 30th birthday party for my husband, got inducted into the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) where I will serve as the Vice President next year along with keeping up with being a wife. So yeah, it's been a little hectic around here in the Anderson household the past couple of weeks. However, I have a new blog post for you today, with an item from my closet that you've seen a couple times before…my blush pink vest. To go along with the mood of Spring I paired it with my mint green skirt and finished the look off with my black cropped leather top and caged booties.

Outfit Details: Skirt (H&M), Leather Crop Top (Forever 21), Blush Vest (Forever 21), Booties (K&G), Sunnies (Thrifted), Necklace (Forever 21), Ear Cuff (Forever 21)

It feels good to be back at it. I am ready to share new posts with you my awesome subscribers and readers :) Stay tuned. In the meantime TGIF luvs!
