What I Wore: Maxi Dress for Fall
8:37 AMI'm seemed to be liking red for fall like colors, and today is no exception. I love maxi dress, and think they can be worn during the fall, as well as summer. Today outfit is a maxi dress that I purchased from Express a long time ago, and I decided today to pair it with my red sweater, and added a gold belt to make it a little dressier for work.
I had an agreement with my daughter that if she passes each of her grades with flying colors, she gets to go on trips with me. She past 2nd grades as one of the top students in her class, so her reward and request was a cruise. I finalize everything this weekend, so come December, we be going to Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos. I also plan on doing some snorkeling there as well. So that is how I spent my weekend, and I hope everyone had a great weekend as well. As always...thanks for the comments, and the amazing support in this fashion journey of mines.

I love the red and grey combo, and I especially love it with your gold belt! I would have never thought to pair the grey and red with gold, but it really works!
ReplyDeleteThanks J :) ...that is why I added the pearl earring, necklace, and bracelets, which has hits of gold to make the blending of the gray here nicely (since I originally wanted to go with sliver accessories). Thanks so much for the visit and comment :)
DeleteThat is such a great idea to offer a reward trip to your daughter for her success in school. That should be motivating! And your outfit is just perfect. I love the color combo and I love the way everything fits and flatters you so perfectly!

Yeah the confidence took a a real beating two weeks ago, but I'm fine, and decided to carry out living ^_-.
DeleteI'm glad I didn't take her to Greece with me, the stuff I saw and the smoking would have been a little to much (and plus it costly there lol).
She loves the water and I'm sure she will have a great time, she love traveling as much as I do.
