Finally, I've had a Sunday to myself. I have been extremely busy and "relaxed" Sundays haven't come by so easily. Being able to sleep in on Sunday was a blessing. Energized, I decided to play dress up! Thankful to my friend, Danielle Smithen, she entrusted me to style her. The theme was "Glam with a modern twist."

How to: Dressing for a Christian Concert

Concerts are always something to look forward to. It's a great excuse to play dress up. Finding the right outfit can be a difficult task, especially when seeking the correct outfit for a Christian concert. You don't want to come across as sleazy and you definitely do not want to be overdressed. As the saying goes, “There is a time and place for everything.” So let me guide you in the pursuit of finding the right attire for a Christian concert. 

JUMPSUITS
I adore jumpsuits! While they are extremely comfortable, if styled properly they can be very chic.

Above are three jumpsuits, I would wear! For jumpsuit no.2 a camisole could be worn under to hide any cleavage. Also, dress it up with a nice blazer and “killer” shoes!


MIDI LENGTH DRESSES
An issue in attending a Christian concert is not looking too suggestive. Wearing a midi length dress is a solution to this problem. A  midi length dress allows you to look “hot” without looking inappropriate.
 
A great way to "glam" up your dress is by wearing a cute clutch!


PRINTS
If you are not afraid to step out of the box in your style , rocking a floral print should be no problem. A floral trouser or skirt can be worn with a matching top or a solid top. Pair it with transparent heels or clutch and you are ready to go!



LEATHER
Wearing a leather skirt, leather pants or a leather dress is a great way to look edgy but still very sophisticated.

Try mixing leather with a floral print blazer and chic booties.

There you have it! A complete guide to the right outfit for a Christian concert!

If you will be in the TORONTO area, The Mississauga SDA Church invites you to an evening of Powerful, Heart-warming Inspirational music. Committed, comprised of graduates from Oakwood University in Hunstville, Alabama, the winner of the NBC's reality show " The Sing Off "will be in concert with other guest artists from the GTA. Come out and support. You will be glad you did!

OOTD: Tuesday Black Affair

I've decided to play dress up yesterday. I enjoyed a lovely weekend with my girlfriends. It was nice to relax before embarking on the notorious week ahead of me. Is it Friday yet?  

Well, to get these shots was hard work. I’m no photographer! I couldn’t find my tripod so I had to use my piano and angle the camera right, put the timer on and then run into position for the picture. I laughed at myself at times, but it was all fun!

Well, check out my OOTD below!

Day to Night

I believe that your work attire should always look professional. But, if you want to look relaxed in the evening with friends or look casual for a date, here is an idea to switch your outfit from day to night.

Day- Wear a professional button up  with skinny’s that could be dressed up or dressed down… pants that are versatile. Finish the outfit off with “killer” heels.

                                                           Top: Forever 21

                                                            Pants: H&M

                                                                       Heels: Zara

Night- Add a vest or a leather jacket. Add loafers to the outfit and you’re ready to paint the town red.

                                                                Vest: Thrift Store
                                                                Loafers: GoJane

Show us your day to night outfit and hash tag purplelipstick and we will post your pictures!

All white everything.

 Even though summer is coming to an end and school is right around the corner, I feel like i'm finally on summer break. I was given a few vacation days from work and decided to dedicate myself, as much as possible that is, to the blog. I'm so grateful for Rachael and Jode-Leigh for holding done the blog while I was ghost! :) 

   So I think my style is changing. If I've had to describe my style in one word, I guess it would've been 'loud'. Matching was a 'no no' for me, I thought the more color the better! But these days I get a headache when I see too many colors or patterns put together. I think because I spent my summer in an office, where I couldn't wear anything too loud, kinda helped/forced me to change things up a bit. I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I love matching! (my mom is very happy about this lol) I have no problem sticking to just one color for an entire outfit.

    Now don't get me wrong, even though I'm starting to shy away from anything too 'loud', I still enjoy seeing other people dress in a million colors with a million patterns! There are days when I want that extra pop of color or pattern, they just see fewer days than most now.
