Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening

Hello beautiful people. How are you all doing? Welcome back and welcome to the fabulous months of FALL. It stirs me spiritually as I stare out the window at the wonder of the Creator regenerating the earth, I see the leaves preparing for their yearly coming of age ritual as they turn orange and then yellow, break off and then flutter to the ground in their last act of surrender to the will of the almighty for them…..Amazing!I want to quickly share an experience from my gym a few days ago. I saw this lady in the dressing room that looked about a size two and according to her, weighed about 102lbs. We got talking and she pulled off her waist trimmer and turned her back to me wanting to know if I could detect any folds in her mid-section, and to which I said ‘no’. I spent the next five minutes reassuring this ‘perfectly skinny’ woman that she looked ‘perfect’. I couldn’t fathom this woman but the experience left me quite unsettled and with the realization that for some people their mind’s image of how they look or should look, is quite different from reality!
Now about this week’s outfit. It’s quiet exciting to talk about this look. I pulled out this orange off-the-shoulder sweater dress, just so perfect for the FALL season. I paired it with these super comfy skin pumps that I’ve had for quiet sometime. I choose not to wear boots because I think it’s a little too early. But no worries, we’ll get to Boots Fashion soon enough. Hello let's talk presentation. I knew that I had to style this and add some of my personal flair, so I did just that. The fur throw was just the perfect embellishment for this already perfect outfit. I can 1. Wrap it around my waist; 2. Drape it around my neck; 3. Drape it on my shoulder; 4. Drape it on my purse; or 5. Just wear it in any other place that pleases my fancy. Wow………that’s 5. W.A.Y.S T.O R.O.C.K F.U.R W.R.A.P!and finished the look with that cow boy hat.
The other amazing thing about this dress is that it can be worn in a gazillion other ways…... on the shoulder, off the shoulder; with the sleeves extended or bunched up, whatever you please.I have not yet said much about hair brooches as styling ornaments but here we go with this hair brooch. Since in my diva opinion this dress does not require a necklace, I used my hair brooch to enhance the beauty of it. Don’t you love the long sleeves of this dress?

Thanks for sharing this nice blog with us. Wow, you are looking fabulous in this fur scarf. Fur accessories give an attractive and glamorous look it depends upon the particular person how she wears. Fur accessories are in trend. Recently I purchased golden colour fox fur scarf online through amifur.com by one of my relative references. This online store really helped me. Keep blogging.
