Woman of Style: Gal Gadot

2 Comments

I have always loved Wonder Woman, especially when Lynda Carter portrayed her back the mid-to-late 1970s. This generation will get to know Gal Gadot as Diana Prince, a.k.a. Wonder Woman. Not only does she have beauty and grace, but she has wonderful style.

Pleats! Yes, Please!

No Comments

Pleats are so on trend right now! They are perfect for holiday parties. Pleats add a touch of fancy to any outfit! I purchased my first pleated skirt back in July. It is green and black, and hits just above my knees. I totally plan on wearing it this holiday season with a black sweater, some black tights, and some cute black booties. Some of my favorite bloggers are featuring pleats on their Instagram accounts and on their blogs. Metallics, deep burgundy and blush tones, maxis and midi skirts, shiny satins and plush velvets. These pleated skirts can be styled […]

I’ve been doing some reflecting these past few days on what I’ve accomplished this past year. I’ve also been thinking about what I want to accomplish next year. After all this thinking I’ve been doing, here’s what I’ve decided… I want 2017 to be my year. { Image borrowed from imgfave } YES! YES! YES! I want 2017 to be my year. I don’t want to just sit on the couch and “wait for it.” I want to go out. I want to make a change. I want to smile more and be excited. I want to do new things. […]
