Red for February


Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog, today

And just like that-It's February, the month of love
Expect all the red and pink and heart motifs you can stand!
No surprises here ❣️

Although the weather is still very wintery,
 it is nice to know that 
  the coldest weather is behind us-
 and spring will shortly be on the way!


My outfit today is built around a wildly printed
 red and white peplum blouse
It is pretty loud, so I've paired it with neutral black
A black camisole underneath the blouse,
and a black knee length pencil skirt





Are you a fan of holiday theme dressing?

 I have a lot of red in my closet,
 and wear it all year round
 But now, I am right in step with what's trending
with upcoming Valentine's Day
Red has been a dominant color this season,
so I am wearing all the red hues even more than usual!




Crazy geometric!


Accessorizing with a darling 
 black and white houndstooth bag 
It has curved top handles and an alternate 
chain and faux leather detachable cross body strap 
I like a small bag, but this one is extra small!
Measuring a handbag online can prove quite tricky,
 since the inside useable space changes
 with the arrangement of pockets, dividers and such
All of my essentials fit in this little bag-but just,
no room to spare!
 
 
For jewelry with this outfit I chose bold, gold tone pieces
 to balance the extra large print of the blouse
Wearing an Egyptian style collar necklace,
  wide dome cuff bracelet,
 and substantial, chunky square round hoop earrings 


Cherry red Mary Jane sling backs with
 kitten heels to finish the look



In keeping with the red tones of February,
for the item that left my closet this winter,
 I chose to show a wine color skater jumper dress 
It has gotten a lot of wear though the years
I have had it, and it is a favorite style of mine
 It was a little big for me when I bought it,
as I had several sweaters planned
to style under it for winter
 I am moving it along,
 I hope someone picks it up as a possible valentine's dress
It's full swishy skirt, would be perfect for a holiday danceπŸ’ƒ


Concealing the fact that it is
 a little too big for me under a blazer
I think this is the last time I wore it,
 and I hope it finds a happy new home!


 
Hope everyone enjoys their week!
