Friends, Fun & Fashion: SWAP &SHOP

I had a wonderful time at my first Swap & Shop event. I was impressed that everyone participated and brought a variety of things to swap. 

Having a variety of fashionistas' with different styles and sizes, allowing everyone to find something special  to incorporate into their wardrobes. It was refreshing to hear and see everyone share their Style Stories of how the essence of their style has matured, and how they wish to show more fun and fearlessness in their clothes. All the ladies encouraged one another to try on items that were out of their comfort zone but were along the thread of how they wish to dress. it was a fun and fashionable event with a great bunch of Fashionistas!

 Flexible Work style theme continues ... 

Does casual Fridays still exist? Some  work environment may not take part in causal attire to end the work week. 

Since that's the case for me, I typically  wear a louder style accessory than any other work day.

Plum &Tangerine

Flexible Work Style: For Thursday, I mixed two colors that are always complimentary to my skin tone. Any shade of violet & orange, tend to bring out the undertone of my skin. Its a plus if you know your hues and what color expresses your tone. Try experimenting with different colors to find out what works for you...

Top: Target (plum colored swearter) Top: Express (via Marshalls) Pants: Limited

Shades of Gray ...

Continuing with this Week's Theme Flexible Work Style 

Combining different shades of one particular color can make a statement. 

I like the idea of staying within one color code but broadening the spectrum of that color .
