Yesterday was very tiring from a church member birthday party on Saturday and so was the day after. But the way I was brought up, no matter what you get up every Sunday morning ready to go to church. So let's just say I was on the go...LITERALLY. I just picked out these two pieces from my closet. I have had them both since last summer and I tell you sometimes the unplanned outfit comes out just fine.
For my hair, I don't know if it is just me but I find the funkiest hairdo's when my braids get old. ON Saturday I had it braided from the back forward and then wrapped up. Yesterday i had it braid to the front and then wrapped in a bun just like solange's. ORANGE LIPS, NUDE EYES...YEA!

Like...Solange
Like Audrey Hepburn...with colors
When I posted one of these photos on instagram yesterday, a friend comment was that my look reminds her of Audrey and I looked up Audrey on Google. I know she's a fashion icon(That's about all I know about her) but while taking a look at her pictures again, I fell in love with a specific picture of her in a black dress and pearl necklace which is exactly what my dress is.
With a lot of stress on life in general, I usually like to seduce my eyes with items I have been checking out for a while, plus it's summer, so why not.
I have been looking for retro round sunglasses forever...I MEAN FOR-EVER. Yea, I know they are everywhere, but I wanted something more sophisticated and a little different from what everyone has. So when I came across these on Ebay the other day, I immediately jumped on it without any further questions. I love the yellow/orange tone with a cut out arrow on the sides. GORGEOUS!

Girl meets boy
Hallo again!
Let's just say this summer has being a mixture of different feelings for me. Emotions running around town, good time with family, bad times with friends, laughter, crying, yelling- yea! it was a nice little Roller coaster. I believe that no matter what happens in your head, in your home,at work or wherever, it is very important to come out smiling in Public *Makes people wonder what's going on in your head without actually guessing it right*. For one thing, I'm not actually a great example of people who smile on the outside because according to people I frown a lot and I have my reason which I really hate to explain.
Meanwhile, I decided to put this look together since....March! I know bad bad bad. But then I do like to bring out an outfit that has been living in my head at the snap of a finger. I bought the shoes for my birthday(March :0) as well as the bowtie. That's how long ago the outfit has been put together.
These all fit into my intro paragraph just to say, I can sometimes vent with my outfits. I feel like a real woman inside with real emotions as well as the little masculinity helping me stay strong through life's roller coaster. I'm thankful though, and I have prayed to God to let the next six months of this year be reflective of something positive in my life.
OUTFIT:

Striped Leotard shirt- thrifted
