Yellow and Navy and Why I Love Elbow Sleeves

Happy Sunday everyone. I hope your weekend was great. My Saturday was sort of different for a change: after choir rehearsal, we didn't have anywhere else to go so I actually got some reading in and spent considerable time on my bed. I cherish days like that. 

I love the way yellow and navy go together and I love my elbow sleeve top. An elbow sleeve top is great for balancing your shape if you are heavy on top and want to create a slimming effect. The sleeves are long enough to hide the upper arms and short enough to show some skin and not add bulk to the upper body. Long sleeves usually add a little more bulk than is needed. 

 Thank you for following and reading my blog. Have an awesome week ahead!

Yellow Dress Remix

This was church wear for Sunday. I didn't take any outfit pictures this past week because I was down with Strep throat. This is definitely not what I looked like during the week; my face that is. I'm here thanking God that is was just that and for healing. It's not fun to be sick. But I think it's a blessing in disguise sometimes. My body needed to rest. I was in bed for two days and I'm kinda happy I did that. Doing nothing but sleeping. Yes please!

I wore this yellow dress on its own here when the weather was warmer. I'm remixing it today by layering with a cardigan. Layering is my number one trick for dressing slimmer. It also adds interest and dimension to any outfit (See last picture for a side by side comparison).

Have a great week and thanks for reading, commenting and following my blog.

Freezing Weather Chic: Yellow and Brown

We are in a deep freeze again and getting dressed has been challenging. I've been in khaki pants and jeans all week. For one, I do not have enough thick sweaters and surprisingly I haven't gone shopping for more. I'm making do with what I have by layering...and then again I hate layers upon layers because it gets uncomfortable. The cords are my go to for the freezing weather. I've gone from not wearing them at all when I purchased them two years ago to wearing them almost weekly since the winter began. This is the third time I'm wearing them on the blog...time for a 5 ways to wear these Old Navy cords post. As you can see from the second picture, it was freezing (and still freezing as I type) when I was taking these pictures. I'm even ashamed to say how cold it was but I managed a few smiles and quickly did what I had to do. Enduring the cold freezing cold weather for a few minutes is not bad right?

Yellow and Leopard

This dress is one of the items I featured in my "Loving Yellow" post a few months ago. I finally got to wear it since I didn't have to wear a uniform to church today. The teenagers took over the church service so we didn't have to sing. Fit and flare styles are perfect for any body type and I love the skirt part of the dress the most.
