Beauty Style Growth: August 2014

A Taste of Orlando, Florida

Hello, I 'm back! I mentioned in the last post that I was on vacation and also went for a training in Orlando. I've actually been back for a while but outfit posts just not working out lately.

Here are a few pictures form the trip. We operated on a very busy schedule as we had to hit Universal Studios, Sea World, Aquatica and Downtown Disney. We even rushed to the airport from one of the parks.

Enjoy!

What's your favorite vacation destination?

Casual Cobalt and Mint

Nothing spectacular about this outfit. My comfy look from last week for running around and choir rehearsal. I'm currently on vacation after a three day training with John Maxwell, so enjoy some of my old posts. Will be back soon.
Keep on loving life and keep moving in the direction of your dreams one step at a time.

Baseball and Denim

Happy Friday! Still loving this versatile baseball tee. I'm not sure if denim skirts are still a thing but this one is oh so comfy and great for casual friday. I wore the top here with a black pencil skirt for a more dressed up look.

Well, this is another blog in a hurry kinda post. Have a great weekend!

Peter Pan, Dots and Surviving in 5 Inch Heels

It was a black and white Sunday again this week. I opted for this polka dot blouse to change things up. I'm already running out of black and white combination options for our choir uniform. The sandals were a last minute choice. I bought them because they were $10 and have been scared to wear them since, after wearing them once, but I survived wearing them again on stage during praise and worship at church. Thank God for heels with platforms. Everything I'm wearing, expect the bag is from Target.

Have a happy week and please be sure to check out my new class starting on August 24th.
