Fashion for Charity

Hello beautiful people!  I had the immense pleasure of attending a charity fashion show 

on October 27th.  The charitable organization "Hey - Haiti Engaging Youth" was raising awareness for their cause with amazing music, fashion, and an overall positive and inspiring atmosphere. 

The goal of this amazing organization is:

"We are dedicated to improving the quality of life in Haiti by bridging the gap and facilitating the building of relationships between Haitian and American youth.

HEY! is creating programs so the youth can be more engaged, skilled and empowered throughout their lives. Through education, medical& health sustainability, cultural integration we can establish stability one community at a time.

We welcome you to help our mission and become a blessing to those in need of your love and support."

Please check out their website and check out any events that may come up in your area, you will not be disappointed!

My friend, Frank Mizzy was one of the featured musical talents to perform at this wonderful event.  I have been following his musical journey through the past few years and have been honored to watch him grow and develop as an artist.  Seeing him perform at such a moving event was a great experience.  Frank sends a positive message through his music, I found it fitting that he be part of such a benevolent project.  Please check out his music and let me know what you think! 

This is what I wore!! Yay!

This shoot took place a few days prior to the event.  At the actual event my hair was up in a bun and my wrist was adorned a bit differently.  The look was still the same, I just felt like a simple up-do was more appropriate for the occasion.   I hope you all enjoy this look and let me know what you think!

Red, White, and Polka Dots

Everyone knows I love my blazers and skinny jeans, so here's a twist to keep it interesting!

You can add a print to put this trend into overdrive!  In this look I paired a navy blue blazer with polka dots with a pair of red skinny jeans, then added some black details and fun accessories! 

This has become a classic look, so like all timeless outfits, adding a little something different can spice it up and add a little something extra. It's always great to add prints, on top or on bottom.  Personally I haven't found printed jeans, leggings, or pants of any kind that I feel look good on me, but I've seen many beautiful woman pull a similar look off with a solid blazer and printed bottoms.

Enjoy!

Neutral Love

 I thought it would be fun to blog one of my favorite summer dresses to celebrate the end of the season.  The ruffles  on this dress add a fun and flirtatious vibe, while the weaving colors are almost tribal.
  

This look is very simple and versatile - it can be dressed up or down with the right shoes and accessories.

I hope you all enjoy this look and please leave your feedback!

The location we shot at had these statues that I thought were adorable,

so of course I had to use them!

White House Black Market

This look is inspired by pure ease, comfort, and femininity.

All garments are loose and flowing without looking over sized or inappropriate.

The accessories I chose compliment this blissful ensemble with small natural pops of color.

I hope you enjoy this look and if you have any questions or similar looks please share!

My top and skirt are both from White House Black Market. I love both pieces because they flow so nicely together with out causing a frumpy look, rather it creates a more whimsical, natural, fun look!
