Hello!!!

It has been a very long time since my previous post and I am so excited to be back today. Hope everyone is having a great new year!

I was extremely busy Q4 of last year and I truly missed blogging. A lot of good things have happened and I got to go home in Zimbabwe for the holidays!

Today, I am in Foxwoods Connecticut.  The resort is very huge and beautiful. It’s a much laid back environment, so I decided to go with a very casual drawstring sweatshirt dress from Loft, a long & open cardigan from Marshalls, and Clarks Charlie Zip boots in British tan leather.  All the major pieces I wore today are from 2012 clearance sales.

Thanks for visiting. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and stay warm!

Yesterday, I wore this red and black straight dress by Vince Camuto. This was true find from Marshalls’ clearance rack last year at a final price of $29 from $140! It has folded cap sleeves that I find very stylish. Here, I pared this understated dress with black suede ankle strap shoes from Ann Taylor. By The way, I am a big fan of Vince Camuto designs, I own a number of pieces that have not yet made it to this blog, so stay tuned :).

I love fit and flare dresses; they are comfortable, feminine, understated and just perfect for summer. Here, I am wearing my first and only finding from Free People. I got this at a giveaway price during their summer clearance last fall. I immediately fall in love with the design and intricate details on the shoulders. The color is a perfect rich & romantic vanilla. This dress did not come with a belt, but I figured it worked well with this playful belt that actually came on a different dress. The wedges are by Franco Sarto via Marshalls.

Thanks for visiting, have a great week!

Recently, I have added a couple of printed pants and peplum tops to my closet. When I tried my first pair of printed pants a couple of months ago, I felt overwhelmed by the bold prints, so I went with this pair; it has small geometric patterns in subdued shades of green/blue and black. However, when I saw the bolder & brighter springy prints on the Ann Taylor clearance rack a week ago, I instantly fell in love, so I went an extra mile. If you are hesitating getting these trendy pants, I recommend starting with small prints in dark colors, it only took me a few wears to acquire a taste for this style.
