Maxi Skirt: B Moss (Another closet fave of mine for quite some time!)
Belt: J Crew
Statement Necklace: Vintage (Bought at area antique shop)
Sunnies: Target

Authenticity:
Styling authentically means wearing what you desire versus what you
think you are supposed to wear—based
upon your age, gender, vocation, etc.
Of course, there are compromises.
For example, it wouldn’t be a great idea for me to sport a pair of ripped jeans into the office. I can,
however, have fun and authentically express myself by infusing vintage pieces,
leopard print and maxi skirts—and do so in a manner appropriate for a
professional setting.
Resourcefulness:
I heart living within a budget, and I adore the planet. Over time, I’ve learned to dress well
spending much less than ever before.
When I buy vintage, consigned and thrifted pieces, I am also doing
something great for the environment.
Both of these things make me feel
fabulous about my efforts!
What about you?
How does your expression of style allow you to celebrate yourself?
Joy and peace.
