Happy January 2017 my dearest lovelies! My wish is for you all to have a year filled with lots of joyous and magical moments, for your hopes to become possibilities and for your dreams to become  a reality.

 So for my first blog post for the new year I thought it would be fitting for me to begin the year wearing and incorporating some elements of color to my outfit. In this case, I purposely chose warm pastel hues for its soft, light, sweet aesthetic while simultaneously adding a touch of color with warm overtones to my winter outfit.  

Since it is still winter time in Minot, North Dakota, wearing layers is imperative to staying warm and cozy .  I therefore layered a  fuzzy white sweater over a blush pink skater dress. And protected myself against the winter chill by draping a  white woolly straight cut jacket over my outfit.

In terms of accessories, I found that the  cross body tropical print clutch contrasted wonderfully against this winter outfit. Because the leafy tropical print it is symbolic of warm summer days and reminiscent of my home in Trinidad.  More so, the greenish hues on the cross body clutch is  a nod towards 2017 Pantone’s  color of the year- greenery, which is representative of  life, growth and vitality, a fitting color to begin the year with.

In respect to winter headwear, pom pom beanies are more popular than ever. So to complete my winter look, I wore a dark blue pom pom beanie  which provided that pop of color  and  perfect contrast against the pastel colors of my winter ensemble. For my winter foot wear, I decided to wear ankle boots because it gave balance to the outfit in terms of proportion.

Thank you sweethearts for your support and for reading. So  until my next blog post I am sending you all much love and positive thoughts.
