  The older I get, I love a two-piece set more and more. It's a throw it on and go situation.  This two-piece set checks all of the boxes: relaxed polished chic effortless put together Lately, my life’s been nonstop, and my style has to keep up. I need to grab something and go without overthinking it- that’s what I love two-piece sets like this one. I loved it so much, I bought it in another color.  What I'm Wearing: Masterclass 2 piece pant set : Fancy Homebody Gold Heels: Shein

Hello Dolls, Summer is here! It's one of my favorite times of the year, because I actually have more of a social life when the weather is warmer. I have been working non-stop and saving up for a special event, so my social activities have been limited this year. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see Beyonce' though! So many people raved about the Renaissance tour, so I didn't want to miss out on her next tour. Thankfully, I was able to get a ticket from Seat Geek for $107 the week before the concert!  My friends that let me tag along with them, they helped me out so much that night I'm so glad that I did, because I absolutely enjoyed myself. She puts on an amazing show! Her voice sounds the same as it does on the radio. Her visuals, costumes and team of dancers were incredible. Seeing Blue Ivy doing her thing and seeing Rumi just being Rumi put the icing on the cake. I thought I was going to hear her perform songs from the Cowboy Carter album for the entire nigh...

I’m doing a summer wardrobe refresh and I have a mental list of the items I want to buy. Two piece sets are on the list. I just love how effortlessly stylish they can be. I think they’re a good choice to wear to dressy and even casual outings.  ⁣I slept on Amazon fashion for a while, but a friend turned me on to their clothing.  The set I'm wearing is linked on my Amazon storefront, and the entire outfit is linked on my Liketoknow.it  shop. Both links are at the top of my home page. ⁣ ⁣ What I'm Wearing :  Two piece set + Necklace: Amazon ⁣ Heels + Bag: Shein What's on your summer wardrobe wish list? ⁣

  I’ve been loving blazers more. It’s the essential piece to pull almost any look together, and they’re a great layering piece. Since I’ve been watching old episodes of Murder She Wrote, 😆I love to add a brooch to them. She always wore a brooch with her blazers. ⁣ ⁣ ✨Here are three blazer styles that I think would be a great addition to any wardrobe: ⁣ ⁣ •Structured Blazer- for the tailored, chic look⁣ •Boyfriend Blazer- loose fitting and forgiving, especially for weight gain⁣ •Colorful Blazer-adds pop of color to outfits ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ What I'm wearing: Blazer: Shein Curve (sold out) ⁣ Pants: Fashion Nova Curve (sold out) ⁣ Flats: Amazon  Amazon  What's your favorite type of blazer?

  Hi Dolls,  Like most people, I like to save money when I can; especially when it comes to clothing. I always want to go with the option that makes my money go farther, which is why I love bargain stores. One of my favorite bargain stores is Roses Discount Store because you can find all kinds of things for your home, furniture, snacks, and even clothing. I've been wearing their clothing for years; they have affordable, trendy clothing for all occasions, even date night!  Whether you’re taking yourself on a solo date (the only dates I’ve been going on) or you’re going out on a date night with bae, a jumpsuit is a stylish and comfortable option. They’re figure flattering, easy to style, and versatile. I have a total of four jumpsuits from Roses, ranging from casual to dressy and I love them all.  If you’re looking for an affordable date night look, Roses Discount Store  is worth checking out. My jumpsuit and heels totaled under $25, proving that you can...

  Hey Dolls! I hope the last few months of 2023 is treating you well! I've been good. I've been trying to maintain and have fun in between my work-life demands. If there's a fun event happening and my pockets can afford it, I'm going! I attended a Styles Brunch last month. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The Styles Brunch is a luxury plus size fashion brunch. It was held in Baltimore, MD this year.   I attended to meet Atarah (the dynamite hostess), network, eat well, and celebrate style in a luxury setting. My experience exceeded all of my expectations!  From the welcome mimosa, to learning from the elite panel, I felt celebrated, empowered and inspired.  The vibe that I felt from this entire experience was "go where you are celebrated, not tolerated."  It was a joy to be surrounded by beautiful, likeminded women who came together to celebrate one another, style, confidence and positivity! I left this event with so much more than I anticipated. I...

Hi Dolls, #sponsored As you may know, I've been shopping my closet and restyling clothes I've worn before. I decided to buy a few clothing pieces for summer, particularly for my upcoming vacation. Fortunately, I was also able to get a closet update  with new dresses and accessories from Torrid. I've never shopped at Torrid before, but I always heard good things about their style of clothing and the quality. I'm very impressed with the dresses! They are light, good quality, easy to style and true to size. For reference, I'm a size 1 in Torrid clothing (14/16).  Whether you need dresses for the office, or you’re attending a summer wedding, cook outs, or Girls Night Out, Torrid has you covered!

  Hi Dolls,  I've been making a consistent effort in wearing what I have in my closet. I've also decided to reduce my clothing purchases. I use to buy clothes every pay; now, I've decreased to buying clothes every season. I'm due for some spring purchases, but I've decided to not buy anything new until my vacation in the summer.  So far, I'm sticking with my goal. I've rediscovered clothes that  I’ve had for some time and I’ve been restyling them.   Restyling is fun! Plus, it’s saving me some coins in the process, and I love that for me. The dress I'm wearing is one of my restyles, I've had it for years and have worn it before. This time, I decided to switch up the heels and accessories.  What I'm wearing: Dress: Boohoo (old) Platforms: Scoop by Sophia Vergara (Walmart brand) Nails: Impress manicure Be sure to follow my shop thagabulouslyfe on the shop.LTK app to shop this post and get my exclusive app-only content. How often do you buy clothes?

  Hi Dolls! I recently took a trip to Atlanta, it was lots of fun and relaxing! Usually when I take trips, I convince myself that I need to buy something new, any new clothing piece. This time, I challenged myself to wear what I already had. I was surprised at everything I found.  I only wore this set from Fashion Nova once to take pictures in it for content. I was surprised that it still had tags on it. 😔I took it with me, it was perfect to wear at Sky Lounge . It's very comfortable, soft, and has great stretch. The knot-twisted back of the top makes a statement on its own. I just added heels and a bag, and I was set. It's a simple, but significant look. 😀 What I'm Wearing: Pant set: Fashion  Nova                  Clear Heels: Fashion Nova               Clutch: Fashion Nova Earrings: Cato Fashions

  It's sweater dress season! I wore them when I was younger, but got away from them. I found this one on Amazon, and I was reminded of why I love them: -They can be dressed up and down.  -They're very versatile; they're perfect for the office with a cardigan or blazer, and they can be worn by itself with heels and a cape for a night out. -They're comfortable and figure flattering.  If you're looking for sweater dress ideas, I've linked this one and others under "Fall Fashion Finds" on my Amazon storefront , and also on my Liketoknow.it shop .  What I'm wearing: Sweater Dress + Earrings: Amazon Fashion Bag: Shein Heels: Fashion Nova What's a staple in your closet?

  Hello, Dolls! I hope everyone is well. I'm doing good. I went on vacation in February, and then I took a social media break to pause and renew my spirit. Sometimes you just need those breaks to pour back into yourself and reflect, so that's what I did. Now, I'm ready to move forward. 😊 Today, I'm sharing a throwback look that I wore a while ago. It's the classic blazer and jeans look, which looks good on everyone! I'm wearing my favorite blazer (mainly because of the fit and color) and favorite boyfriend jeans, paired with a fun graphic tee.  You can wear a blazer and jeans with any top, but I like to wear a graphic tee with mine because to me, it says, "I'm fun, and I don't take myself too seriously"...which is something I'm trying to work on. 😉 When all three pieces are combined together, it gives off a fun, stylish but pulled together vibe. I can easily see myself wearing this when hanging out with the girls for a night out. 🍹 What ...

  Hello, Dolls! Happy December! I hope you all are doing fine!  Lately, as far as fashion is concerned, I've been uninspired to create anything. Hence, the title of this post, "finding my way back." My lack of inspiration is a combination of a lot of things: stress, lack of motivation, no creativity, etc. I've decided to take a brief break; and then come back with some new content, and hopefully, new creativity. In the meantime, here's a look that I put together in October.  An easy poncho, vegan leather pants, and heeled boots are all stylish components for a fabulous Fall look. They all came together wonderfully in this outfit! Of course, I have to have my accessories. I couldn't wait to wear this quilted leather bag from Kate Spade. I got the bag from Uptown Cheapskate , it's my favorite thrift store! I like wearing ponchos loosely; but for this look, I wanted the fit and flare look. So, I added a vegan leather belt to cinch my waist.  What I'm Wear...

  Hello, Glamour Dolls I'm in love with Walmart fashion, they have some of the most trendiest brands that don't break the bank. A few of my favorite Walmart brands are No Boundaries and Time and Tru . Today, I'm going into more detail about the Eloquii Elements brand.  💗I adore the Eloquii Elements collection!  Here's why: ~Their pieces are sophisticated, on-trend and chic ~They have quality clothing, affordably priced at $50 and under ~Something about Eloquii just makes me feel grown up and cosmopolitan!  ⭐I love many clothing brands, but Eloquii is probably in my top three for plus-size fashion.  About the Look: The balloon sleeve dress I'm wearing is from the Eloquii Elements collection. It's true to size, has great stretch, and is $17! It's also versatile, I've worn it by itself, and to work with leggings under. The wedge heels are by another Walmart brand that I love, Scoop by Sofia Vergara ...check her out! It's hat season, and none of my loo...

Hello, Dolls!  I hope you all are well! I'm really starting to get back into the swing of posting more. I'm hoping to  keep the consistency going. 😀Since last year, I’ve developed a love for two piece sets. As far as clothing was concerned, two piece sets and shorts & tees got me through Quarantine 2020.⁣ ⁣  They’re a casual + comfortable option when I need something appropriate to wear while I’m teleworking, running errands around town, and even for going out. In short, they’re effortlessly chic and versatile. ⁣ ⁣ I styled this set three ways, from a simple going out look (top), to my every day look (last look). If you haven’t already, think about adding at least one two piece set to your closet…thank me later. 😉⁣ I have several sets like this, and I know I'll probably be purchasing a few more.  Layering season is here, I added a cardigan for warmth and for contrast in color The set I'm wearing is the Just Like That Curvy Set from Kay the Shoeist! It's v...

On the weekends, I become a foodie! I was one of the people who couldn't wait to dine in at restaurants, once I felt it was safe to do so. I'm happy to say that this summer, I've had my fair share of in door dining. I've rode past the Crab Shack several times, and I decided to try it. The first time I ordered, I wasn't impressed with what I ate. To know me closely, is to know that I love seafood. So, I couldn't stand to think that any seafood spot couldn't be delicious. I had to give it one more try. The next time I went, I ordered something different, and I loved it! I've been going ever since! Need a place to go to Happy Hour after work? The Crab Shack!  Want something to eat while watching a Verzuz battle? The Crab Shack! 📍Location: If you live in the DMV area, (DC, MD, VA) the Crab Shack is located in Crofton, Md.
