Hey Y'all,  I apologize for not posting at all this past week. I've been super busy! My daughter attends a performing arts school and we have been going to year end performances non-stop! Theatre, Ballet Folklorico, Ballet, Piano, Talent Show...(last year we did all of this AND she was also in Ice Skating)! We have 2 more things (ballet company audition and a science project) and then we are done and can enjoy the summer. YAY!! I'm exhausted but so grateful to have a gifted and talented daughter who stays out of trouble!!  While keeping up with my daughter's busy schedule, at the same time I'm also trying to prepare for New York Full Figured Fashion Week (I can't believe it's only a bit over 2 weeks away)! I'm so excited to be going but I'm having a bit of style block. I just can't seem to get motivated to put any outfits together. Any who, I have a few ideas floating around in my head so I guess we shall see when I get there. lol  On a pers

BOWS AND LACE

Today my daughter and I decided to walk around my hubby's campus (he's in seminary). We snapped a few pics during our adventure. Hope you enjoy! I am in love with this statue on campus of Jesus washing one of His disciples feet. Such a wonderful act of humility which illustrates that He had come to serve mankind. Christ's ultimate service for mankind was his willingness to give His life for us. His example of humility, service and generosity is all the more poignant because of its contrast with the attitude of the rest of humanity. Our natural tendency is to look for ways to make others serve us. God's way, on the other hand, is unpretentious, willing service to others. Serving others God's way imposes no conditions and expects no reward: "But love (even) your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil" (Luke 6:35). Th

QUEEN OF DISCO

Image
I'm a 70's baby so it's only natural that I'm a lover of disco. I don't think it's so much the songs as it is the style of that era!! Glamour, glitter, sequins, platforms, big hair, lots of makeup = YEAH BABY!! I'm sure you can tell by many of my outfits that I speak the truth of said love! lol Today I heard the sad news that Donna Summer passed away. :-( I decided to throw on one of my disco dresses to pay homage to the QUEEN OF DISCO .  R.I.P. Donna Summer! With Love, Kiah

SPANISH INSPIRATION

Image
I have been inspired by so many designers these days but my new love in fashion has got to be all the Spanish influenced looks...especially from Miu Miu!! Here is my Spanish influenced look. This dress sort of reminds me of a Flamenco dancer! I had an awesome cameo broach out and ready to pin to the center of my collar and of course I walked right out the door and left it on the bathroom sink! Talk about a total outfit foul!! BOO!! lol No worries, you will see this influence again. ;-) Dress: Eliza J. Shirt: Ralph Lauren Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Belt and Flower: Lane Bryant Sunnies: Armani Exchange With Love, Kiah
