Work Chic

Sunday Shenanigans

Hello Blogger's and Reader's. Let's make today an absolutely lovely Sunday! 
Live like it is your last day..... Smell the air, go for a walk, call an old friend, call a new friend, do something you have always wanted to do, or remind someone in your life that you care about them. Being a bereavement counselor reminds me every day that life is a gift and happiness is something that we have to create for ourselves, sometimes we even have to fight for it. I hope you can create some happiness and cultivate peace for yourself today!

Or inspiration to pair a long skirt with a shorter Jacket....that obviously works too! Love all black during the winter, when you are out and about you can't go wrong!

Some more Dior, just because I love it! Dior knows how to be theatrical and chic at the same time. J'Adore Dior!

Take an old sweater and wrap it around then finish off with a cinch belt and you are set! Loving this orange/red color!

My Sunday Shenanigans picture choices are so totally random and yet somehow each entry has a little bit of a theme that comes through in my unconscious design. Can you tell?!?! HA HA! Love the color blocking that is happening this season with like colors! Absolutely lovely!

I am just adoring the hair turban that I believe June Ambrose might have brought back to fashion in a really chic way! I have a black one I bought from BCBG about two seasons ago. It adds edge to any outfit, but you have to make sure you accentuate either your lips or your eyes in a big way to support the look! Super Fun!

Love this photo. I have a black wig at home that I borrowed from my friend Alex. Going to take some pictures with it and will post them for you to see. 

A Lovely Sarah Jessica Parker Moment

I have no idea who SJP is wearing or where she is...but one thing I know for sure! When the girl turns it on, she really hits the nail on the head! I die for this outfit!!! The coat takes my breath away, the dress peeping out...absolute perfection! The clutch, incredible and unique. And the shoes to finish it all off, ah-ma-ing! She looks beautiful on top of it all, the hair and makeup she has down to a fine art! Absolutely Lovely!

Emma Watson

Emma has made a major fashion upgrade in this last year or two and I think that attention should be paid!!! The girl is not afraid to take risks. Enter pixie hair cut! When she did it, it seemed everyone had an opinion, but she seemed to remain very comfortable in her decision. And I have to admit that I think it looks best now, where it is grown out just a little. There is a sweet and yet kind of punk rock vibe to her look at the same time. I love the juxtaposition in her fashion sense. And loving the tan skin and brown hair with the grey coloring, very now!
Rock it girl! You look lovely!

The Pink dress with poofy pockets and the rocker cinch belt. Per-fec-tion! I would love to dress like this every day! And I have to say that many people were not a fan of the look in the middle picture when Carrie was in mourning for her relationship, but I have to say that I think it was perfectly executed!

This Vivien Westwood Dress was to-die-for!

These ensembles are the perfect example of how to put together things that would never match and somehow make them all work in such an eloquent way! Wasn't that truly the essence of Carrie Bradshaw's fashion?!?!

Again mixing with the cozy chic and high fashion, to tone down and relax the couture and make it reasonable enough for every day outings! LOVE! LOVE! This Carrie moment!

Sunday Shenanigans

It's the 17th, the sun is shining and spring has arrived. It is my favorite season (not just because my birthday is in Spring) but because the weather is perfect, and somehow it seems to be shorter and shorter every year. I hope you are enjoying the sun today my followers. Here are some pretty things to help make your Sunday....a fun day!
