Hellooooo…figuratively pats the mic…is this thing on? Is anybody out there? Do I still have an audience?… Hey, girl, hey, girl, hey! Yes, it’s me. Can you believe it? Yeah, me neither, lol. I know you’re like, who is this girl that left us hanging almost 4 months ago? She’s been popping in and out on social media, but only in glimpses that are too far in between and forgotten by the time our thumbs begin to scroll through our feed. I hear you! My response…I’m sorry. I really am. It’s been way too long to remember where I left off and way too long to remember what ultimately kept me away. I guess you can say that it was multiple things, but here I am, yet again, making an appearance.

I’ve missed my platform. I’ve missed writing. I’ve missed creating and most of all, I’ve missed you guys. This is indeed my element and I’m happy to be finally peering my head from underneath the rubble. Hopefully, you’re still here, ready to listen and keep your eyes peeled for new content because I’m coming back with a vengeance. Vengeance #1 starts now…

Summer has ended and fall is officially the season at hand. I love fall! Even though Houston never really experiences a true fall, I thoroughly enjoy drooling over fall fashion and creating my own signature looks of the season. The weather has been pretty horrible for the past 3 weeks. Its rained almost every day. The only good thing about that was the slight breeze, which almost felt like fall, and had true fall lovers dusting off their booties. Other than that, hot and humid is Houston’s norm. After planning to create this lookbook, presenting it you guys on Instagram and finally having a slight break from the rain, I was able to capture a few shots of some end of summer outfits. Even though we’re about 7 days in to fall, better late than never, right?

I’ve partnered with two fabulous boutiques for this lookbook and I’ll be mentioning them throughout the entirety of my blog posts. Up first, is this artful creation of a dress, which is from a local Houston brand called Kosmios. If you haven’t heard of them, their brand is reinventing the status quo of what a modern Christian woman looks like. Their goal is to make modesty fashion the desired choice of dress in the fashion industry. Combining stylish apparel with a classy appeal, they’re filling the wardrobes of many women who desire to present themselves by 1 Timothy 2:9. Of course, I can’t leave you hanging without a coupon code, so get your shop on by using code HGG15 for 15% off your full price purchase!

This dress features a beautiful abstract design, button-down front, pleated ruffle hem, and Victorian style sleeves. It comes with a matching belt, but I decided to break up the print by pairing it with a black corset belt. For accessories, I kept it simple with a pair of white cat-eye sunnies and adorned my ears with one of my favorite Summer staples, a great pair of statement earrings. If you know anything about me by now, you know that I live and breathe for statement earrings.  I had to present you guys with another fabulous online boutique to stock up on affordable statement makers. I’ve always been a pretty frugal shopper, so before heading to the mall or scouring popular online stores, I ALWAYS head to eBay first. Since becoming a regular eBay shopper, I stumbled upon Parker Sparrow, which is an eBay shop that sells affordable jewelry and accessories for women. These beaded white beauties had me at hello and were the perfect addition to my dress. Shop the link below for 10% off your purchase of $25 or more!

Style Tip of the day

Adding your own belt to a dress that comes with a matching belt, allows you to put your own signature touch on an item that someone else may have. Also, If you desire is to shorten your body length a bit when wearing an all over printed dress, utilizing a belt will break up your body into sections.
