12 months later…my little angel is so adorable! 

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

We just celebrated my little angel’s first birthday on February 23rd and had a small party on Saturday February 25th. I never thought you can love someone that much! The cheesy saying “I love you so much it hurts” is so true for what I feel for my little angel.  I will protect him with my life in a heart but! Haaaa! The whole week I’ve been revisiting the pictures of him from when he was just a few months old and I can’t believe how fast he’s grown.  I have tears in my eyes looking at the early pictures, and it seems that just last week I were released from the hospital with a little baby, exhausted , scared, and excited for the future. It has been an amazing journey so far. Thinking about how far we’ve came, I was inspired to make a collage  of my little angel’s pictures month to month from now to when he was born. The pictures start really clear but as he’s growing and moving I can’t no longer get a still picture. So I guess that’s the fun in videos.

As great as all this is, the pregnancy was not a walk in the park, but that’s a long story for another time…i’m happy and thankful to God for my little angel ❤ 😉✌

#RRW Romantic Retro Week: This Is Funcy (fun+fancy) Friday! 

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

It’s Friday,  it’s friday, it’s Fri Fri Fri Fri Friday! 🎵🎶 Friday is usually the casual jeans day at work but not today! Not for me, it’s #RRW,  so I need fancy fun outfits to honor my theme! The first look is what I wore to work. It’s a simple stripped t-shirt with a high waisted pant that has a lacing details on each side of the hips right by the pockets.

This look is reminiscent of the 50s. Women was all about high waisted pants then: whether it’s wide bottoms or cigarette style, high waisted was in and is back in trend Yes!

My second look is this amazing dress I feel sexy, comfortable, and confident in! Love the sleeve details with the buttons and the half front belt. Love this dress!  

I have enjoyed every moment  of my #RRW So far and the icing on the cake is that I inspired some people to find a way to wear what they really love. For these two Funcy looks, the pants and the dress were both purchased from vendors on Amazon.COM 

Feel free to ask questions,  comment, and join the fun #RRW  😉✌

#RRW Romantic Retro Week: This is Thriving Thursday! 

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

Yeah it’s Thursday!  For some reason I like Thusdays even though they can be challenging work days because things that need to be completed for week get slammed at you. Anyways, regardless of any challenge or chaos, I thrive…get it? Thriving Thursday!!! And my #RRW look is no different: strong feminine silhouette with emphasis on sleeves and like a good 40s 50s style, an accentuated waist! The 40s and 50s were about the feminine silhouette but also the jewelry. They were not afraid to accessorize whether it’s jewelry, hats, scarfs, or hair… they went for it, so did I as much as possible for a professional environment. Checkout for yourself:

This dress is simple in nature, cut loose overall but provides a belt to accentuate the waist…sexy😍 the special feature of this dress is the emphasized sleeves. In true 40s 50s style, an element needs to stand out. I completed my look with a bold red necklace, these amazing flats, a hair band, and put my weave in a bun. I got tones of compliments on the shoes, necklace, dress, and the whole look 🤗I’m in love with the simplicity and the power of this dress. Wearing it makes me feel like I can conquer anything while looking pretty! Hence the name Thriving Thursday!!! So where did I get this beauty? Amazon.com …yep! It’s a go to for me when I need unique vintage inspired styles! Feel free to join the fun or comment #RRW 😉✌

#RRW Romantic Retro Week: This is Wishful Wednesday! 

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

Wishful Wednesday is a look inspired by the 50s where mid-length full pleaded skirts were in fashion. The skirts were paired with nice blouses and a jacket or sweater as the style below from the 2nd Lady from the left. 


I love the innocence conveyed in this look but also the playfulness and flurtiness. I called my look wishful Wednesday because of the vibe I get from these clothes.  I feel joyful, Innocent with a twist! Almost like just seeing the beauty in things, playfully enjoying life, but wishing for more! Below is pic from a vintage shop with amazing 50s inspired  outfits!

So where did I get my look? Brace yourself…none only but the Good Will store. However I got it during a special event where Good Will was selling designer apparel for charity at their Washington store. If you’re interested, be in the lookout. It’s an annual event and they do have big name designers and clothes, shoes, purses etc.

Feel free to join the fun! #RRW 😉✌

#RRW Romantic Retro Week: this is Temptress Tuesday!

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

Happy Valentine’s day to all of you and my #RRW continues with Temptress Tuesday. 

I know it’s Valentine’s day and people wear red, but I’m green today! This look is reminiscent of the 40s kinda like the one below.

What I like about this look is its charm, simplicity,  femininity, and sex appeal! It’s form fitting but conservative in the cut, shape, and the belt. This look is covered but very revealing of body shape which is why I called it the temptress Tuesday because it’s almost exposing but not really! It’s classy sexy! So where did I  get this temptress beauty? You guessed right! This was also on Amazon.com buy and I feel delicate and powerful wearing it. Feel free to join the fun #RRW 😉✌

#RRW Romantic Retro Week!  This is Mesmerizing Monday!

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

I self proclaimed this week romantic retro week #rrw and will be wearing looks inspired by the 1940s and 1950s. Join the fun and post comments and your fav period inspired looks #RRW. I’m a sucker for the 1920s, 40s and 50s, but since I’m not about to show up to work in a 20s flapper’s dress, I’m focusing on the 40s and 50s. This time period  was filled with incredible styles and romantic silhouettes without omitting sex appeal. Women were hot and sexy even without exposing much skin….it’s all about silhouette and details on the right spots. I love dressing up and looking like a million bucks and this period of time had the elegance, richness,  attitude and sometimes borderline arrogance in the clothing style.I  love that women highlighted their best features and held themselves with such class. Another feature of the 40s and 50s look I’m dying for is the sexiness and flurtiness served with class!

For the first look, I present  Mesmerizing Monday! This dress is a 40s and 50s inspired style that I adore. The neckline is highlighted with the poka dots 😍 love love polka dots! and the sleeves and buttons details, and the half belt make the dress feminine, a little ornate, but grown up. I completed the look with this creme textured flats with straps that bring the right amount of attention to the feet without taking away from the dress. If you’re interested in this look, i got mine on Amazon.com.

In this dress, I feel feminine, grown, beautiful and comfortable.  It fits in all the right place and highlights my best features. 

Yahhhh to #RRW 😉✌

Sweet Sweater Outfit of the day!

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

45 degrees this morning so it’s sweater weather! I love this black mid-tight length sweater with the ribbon threading detail on the side. It’s long, black, boddy hugging in all the right places, and gives a slender figure. The black shirt underneath has some gold detail that breaks out all the black and gives the outfit a dressed up attitude. 

I got the shirt on sale at Nordstrom Rack and the sweater is from Ross. Both together for a steal of about $20…yep! I paired them with pant legging and boots! All made for a stylist sweater day with many compliments! 😉✌

Match my bounce jumping squats!

Published on by SarahMLeave a comment

If baby is enjoying his bouncer but doesn’t want you to leave the room, how do you make it fun play for him and good workout for you? How about jumping squats matching his bounce? JJ loved it! This boy can go for 30 minutes or more. I definately haven’t needed a gym membership since having the baby and I have been able to have happy healthy meaningful workouts! I have been working on getting a flatter stomach which is one of the hardest part after a baby. So baby is helping me a lot reach my goals. 😉✌
