Pinterest Inspiration, Polyvore Creation! {1}

This is my first post on Pinterest Inspiration! Polyvore Creation! (or PIPC, for short)! :) 
Now you probably are all wondering, "what is she talking about?" I think I better explain. I have a very big obsession with Polyvore and Pinterest -which sometimes isn't a bad thing - and use them when I am in need to find motivation for new ways to dress up old boring outfits! 
Now I know that all of us have perfect fashion sense and don't have any problems when it comes to style. Ha! If you could only see how much trouble I make when endeavoring to create a new fresh take on style! 
Anyway... I wanted to share a Polyvore creation I have made or a Pinterest inspiration picture once a week to show you what helps me when I am stuck in a rut about what to wear, or what garment to pair up with another garment.

Today's inspiration is from my Polyvore page and I had so much fun creating it! Can you tell I am really in the mood for spring? Haha!


Okay, so normally I don't put patterns together, but the polka dots and stripes are really starting to grow on me! A dotted clutch and a striped tank add so much dimension to the outfit. I love bright warm colors for spring, so hot pink and sunshine yellow are no exception! The always steadfast Mary Jane is perfect to add some cuteness, but yet still help the outfit maintain a sophisticated look!
I love blazers and they help dress up an outfit so much! I would definitely recommend having a couple in your wardrobe in case you need to ever present a clean, stylish appearance! They are so preppy and can certainly go either way whether it be casual or formal! Now, these bubble necklaces are really making a statement in the fashion community, and I wasn't too sure about them when they first appeared, but I am finding myself searching to own one before the season is out! Hopefully, I'll obtain one before they fade into the background!

Hope you enjoyed my PIPC moment and I am looking forward to sharing more fashion with you all! What Pinterest or Polyvore creations have inspired your look?

Sunday's Outfit: Blazers and Floral Shirts

Good morning all! I trust you had a fabulous Sunday yesterday! I immensely enjoy spending time fellowshipping with like-minded believers in the house of God! Such a refreshing and edifying time! Yesterday's sermon was very good about explaining the deteriorating time of an actual message preacched within the church. So many Christians today want shorter sermons so they don't have to sit there for a long period of time, but because of the decreasing interest, many believers are unknowingly hindering themselves from growing spiritually. So sad to see that today. I love long sermons because I feel satisfied when I leave, like I have experienced a full meal rather than a 15 minute fast food run. After church my grandparents and I had a lovely lunch outing complete with good food! :)


Blazer: Apostrophe (second hand store)
Shirt: The Limited (thrifted-$1.50)
Skirt: No brand (thrifted-$4.99)
Boots: JC Penny (gift)
Necklace: Boscov's (gift)

I was so excited to find this shirt at Goodwill for 50% off! Such a good find and was the perfect companion for my blazer and skirt! The boots were given to me as a "departing gift" when I left my home to come here for the time being, and the necklace is from my grandma when she and I were out shopping at the mall, and we found the jewelry clearance section in the store.

How was your Sunday? What do you think about longer or shorter sermons in the morning worship service?

Springtime Blue

Hello lovely ladies! I hope all of you are having a fantastic week thus far! I myself have been doing very well, overall, and have had so much happen just within the past several months. For those of you who haven't heard, I was (very willingly) shipped some way across the USA to stay with my wonderful grandparents for a month or so (which basically turned into several). :) I am enjoying helping them and I am learning so much just from the time spent here! It has been such a blessing to meet new people and form friendships with them over the past several months, and I don't know how I am going to be able to leave them in a few months!


Well, I think winter is finally behind us now and we are enjoying the warmer weather. Thank goodness! This sweater is one of my favorites and it is so versatile! Comfy, but yet stylish, and it's such a pretty blue! Puts me in the mood for springtime soon! Hopefully, it's just around the corner! I love the winter and snow, but I am in looking forward to a new season. I decided to wear leggings today because even though it is warm here, there is still a little nip in the air! The preliminary signs of spring I hope? I have been in love with leggings all winter and they are such a great staple for any winter wardrobe. I can't begin to tell you how many times I have worn them during the long cold days, but hopefully the time is closely drawing near so that I will have to stow them away until next winter! :)


 Sweater: Gap (second hand store)
Skirt: (second hand store)
Leggings: Danskin Now (second hand store)
Boots: Bandolino (handmedown from my sister)
Necklace: The Christmas Tree Shop ($5)

Well, that's all for now! What are your favorite articles of clothing for spring? Do you have any special sweater that reminds you of spring?
