Meet the lady behind my love for fashion, My Mommy. As far back as I can remember she has always stressed the importance of looking and feeling like a lady. I wore lace dresses on special occasions, my closets always had pink sweaters, shirts and skirts and my skirts and dresses always came to my knees. I was always a well dressed girl. There have been times when I was rebellious to these rules, but I am happy to say, I've always return to her teachings and everyday I understand her Southern Belle style more and more. I find myself looking in her closet for pieces to finish my outfits now.
For example last week, she wore this great blazer from Belk's Crown & Ivy Collection.
The blazer retail for $99.00, but we got it for $34.98; Yes folks she taught me how to shop on a budget also.
This Navy/White blazer has a crisp white ribbon trim that looks so perfect for summer.
I had to copy her look, but with my spin on it...... of course.
Mom wore a clean white crepe skirt with a white shell and silver sandals and accessories.
I decided to go with white shorts and tank, strappy nude sandals and vintage handbag with gold accent pieces.
Now, I wont get a mad if you say she wore it better. I kinda of think so to.
Blazer: Belk's Crown and Ivy Collection
Tank: Target
Shorts: Dillard's
Shoes: DSW
Accessories: Vintage and Thrift
lol - when I saw the pic of you, I said to myself, I prefer your mom's look (I'm closer to her age), then I scrolled down to where you wrote "Now, I wont get mad if you say she wore it better. I kinda of think so to". Then I laughed.
