Happy Friday! It has been the craziest birthday week ever! My hubby is throwing me a big party tomorrow, and I dont really know anything about it. So the anxiety is UP but so in the excitement! In todays Friday post I wanted to share a look that I put together last weekend when my cousin was in town. It was a cooler day, and I wasn’t in the mode to rock any bright colors. So I pulled out two of my favorite pieces to create a look that is both distinctly me and so comfortable.
I brought my camera along to lunch and an afternoon of shopping so I could take some photos of my beautiful cousin. We had fun taking each others pictures and laughing about the ridiculous life of a fashion blogger. LOL I included a picture of her in the post, can you see the family resemblance?
I love this look because I love each piece separately. I think they work well together. maybe not amazing but I felt so comfortable and confident. Which is KEY to feeling good in your own skin, I get comments all the time about how I can really pull of this or that look and really what it comes down to is CONFIDENCE. If you are confident in yourself then you will always feel beautiful and valued. I know that is easier said than done but its so important for women to remember, especially if you are on body positive journey like me and so many of my readers!
This dress is from one of my favorite Indie plus size brands Universal Standard, they carry ultra chic basics that are constantly being rethought and changed up. This particular dress is their most popular piece, I picked it up in NYC last year and every time I wear it I remember that fun day and how special I felt when I got it! The Camouflage jacket(similar) was gifted to me by Yours Clothing, and I have worn this babe OUT. I love the shape and how easy it is to pattern mix with the green. I have sentimental love for both of these pieces, they will always be in my closet and every time I wear them together or separate I feel special.
I challenge you to pull a piece of clothing out of your closet that you have a special memory of and WEAR IT!!
Happy Friday and weekend! Make sure to keep up on my socials to see the party my hubby is planning up! I am sooo excited to see what he has in store for me!!
