WHITE JEANS AND MINT FLATS
I relocated from Oklahoma to Maryland five years ago and it was quite a massive change for me as you can imagine. This past weekend, I went back to Oklahoma for the first time since the move. I was so excited about this particular trip mostly because it felt like going back home after a long duration of time. Flo and I were visiting our dear friend Becca who is a friend to the family and like a sister to me. The thought of seeing familiar faces that I hadn’t seen in a long time had me all ecstatic.
Seeing that I hadn’t done an airport look in a while, I decided to sneak in a few quick pictures as Flo and I were waiting for our flight. Carrie Bradshaw, (Sarah Jessica Parker’s character on Sex and the City) was my favorite character on the show. I still enjoy watching reruns whenever possible. I fondly remember her saying that she will never be the woman with the perfect hair who can wear white and not spill on it.
That’s one of my biggest scares when wearing white, spilling on it, getting it stained! The horror!!! Yikes!! As to the hair, I've had my days, where’s the fun if everything’s perfect right?
Thankfully, my white jeans came through unscathed. I paired them with a floral top and mint flats that were comfortable enough for walking around the airport.

NO TRESPASSING
Happy Wednesday!!!
Keziah and I were running errands in the county and we spotted this beautiful barn on someone’s property. We decide to drive in the property and sneak in some pictures. There was a chance we might get kicked out but……we decided to seize the day!!! LOL
We spotted an elderly gentleman walking about the field and Keziah proceeded to ask him if its ok to take pictures of his barn, permission was granted!!!
We were so excited about this barn! It had shovels, bales of hay, wheelbarrows, and not forgetting the wagon. A few cows and goats would have given us an idyllic country backdrop. The true definition of country meets city. After taking the pictures, we went back to say thanks to the kind gentleman whose name is Mr. John Roberts. We shared some of the pictures that Kez had taken and according to him, his family used the wagon back in 1918; it was their main source of transportation. He hails from a family of farmers and after chatting for a few minutes, we drove off with some history on his life and garnered an invite back to take more pictures!!
For every post, there is always a story behind it, some are too hilarious, and others just down right embarrassing. I tend to meet some fascinating people during some of these posts and there’s never a dull moment behind the scenes.
Am rocking a very comfortable casual look today pairing my favorite jeans with a printed sweater. I then threw in a coat and for some pop of color, the orange suede heels.
Enjoy the rest of your day and thanks for stopping by. :)
SILK TEE + GREY PANTS
A quick hello this beautiful morning, kept it very casual today with grey slacks and a silk tee. It's a comfortable look that can also be rocked with either flats or sandals.
So whenever am editing the pics, I always find one that somewhat stands out. The picture above had me laughing out loud!! The look on my face is hilarious!!! If you were to caption it, what would you write?
Truth be told, I have no idea what I saw or was saying at the time.
As always thanks for stopping by, lets stay connected through my facebook page here,

SEPTEMBER
Happy September folks, its amazing how time flies. Seems just like yesterday that I was eagerly anticipating summer but that’s the beauty of life- it goes on. I haven’t been able put up a couple of posts due to an issue with the pictures, but that’s all cleared.
By now, you already know my love for all things vintage. I get a little flutter when I see a vintage store, am like a kid in a candy store. Oh the joy! With that said, check out a few stores around your area. They are clearing up for fall goodies, so beautiful vintage summer dresses might be on sale. Who doesn’t like a good sale?
For today’s look I settled for a light, flowy, 80’s dress with little shoulder pads on the sleeves. I absolutely love this dress. Can’t wait to rock it with tights and a blazer in the fall. I completed the look with black, suede heels, and some accessories.
Thanks for stopping by.
